    Mathew Modine?

    Tonight I decided to watch "Any Given Sunday" again and see what it is that I missed the first time around. Everyone hated it, I liked it...I musta missed something. Sure enough, I liked it the second time around also??? Modern movie about the modern game.
    Then since my hand is the size of a beach ball, and I can't even close it, I decided to watch a second movie. I was stung by what I think was a yellow jacket yesterday...even my forarm is swollen!
    Anyway I picked the new transfer of Full Metal Jacket...without really thinking. Just before I put it in I realize I was having a Modine kind of evening.
    The new FMJ transfer is very nice by the way, still framed the way Kubrick wanted this one...Full, and the soundtrack now has a few kick-ass moments as well.
    For me there are 5 Kubrick titles that warrant repurchase, this is another one.

    No argument on either title, Kenny. I have watched Any Given Sunday four times and love it more and more each time I watch it.

      Breaking with modern conventions - a highly musical 2-way system using an 8" woofer
      by theSven
      By Jon Hancock

      This article will describe the fruits of my efforts to build a moderate sized speaker which might be moderately above average in performance for a basic two-way system. I desired a speaker like this both for my own use in secondary systems, and to fill a need for some friends, who desired fairly full range response (i.e., “it’s gotta have good bass”). Also, though I have access to a good wood shop, many potential DIY enthusiasts may not, so I hoped to use a modified...

      Laptop Ugrades- things to watch out for
      by JonMarsh
      Upgrading a laptop?

      That's one of the things I usually advise friends NOT to do. There's a certain cost effectiveness to desktop upgrades, and of course, any fumble fingers can work on a modern desktop computer with few worries.

      Naturally, I rarely have enough sense to take...

      Just rented this to see what I thought, someone else recommended it, and anything with Pacino is at the very least, well acted.
      YES, they were right, this is close to a modern sports classic.
      Good acting enerywhere, tight script, and dialog.
      Jim Brown is one bad m-o-t-h-e-r!...

      Watch out for hearing loss!
      by joecarrow
      I just got back from a free hearing screening, and they confirmed what my girlfriend has been telling me. My hearing is less than great!

      The way the audiologist explained it, 0db is taken as the average of what healthy ears should hear. Based on today's tests, my hearing is 10db below...
