Alright, so I watched \"The Shining\" recently, as I believe somebody told me I should, and of course, I was scared out of my wits for at least the remainder that day. Actually, it was the old lady\'s corpse in the bathroom that terrified me. Anyways...
I was very confused about two parts of the movie. For one thing, when the wife is running through the hotel, seeing the apparitions, she comes upon a man in a hotel room with another man dressed like a dog. I really couldn\'t understand th ...

Hi!
Ages ago, I was made an admin of Silver Image Designs (SID). I have almost full power of it. But it has been on Maintenance mode for a long time. Being an admin, I can get into the forum. I got bored, one day, so I decided to create a silver themed skin. (I thought it ironic that a graphics site still had the defult skin.) Out of curtesy, I didn\'t set it as defult, but I sent him a message saying that I did.
However, having put any amount of effort into a forum such as this, I am ...

A few days ago I say the new War of the Worlds movie. I really loved it. It was a good movie, even though it\'s a remake. Definetly one of my all time favorite movies.
But anyways, what did you people think of this movie?
Hey all, i was wondering if anybody knew of a website that had a decent list of what movies the PSP has out/will be realeasing soon, as it is not on the official playstation site at all. would be apriciated.

Hello! I didn\'t know where to introduce myself... Started by Hallie on 30 July 2005 at 19:44
Is it okay if I introduce myself here? I couldn\'t find anywhere else I could... feel free to move this if it\'s out of place. ^-^
Heyo! I\'m Hallie! I\'ve been a Megaman obsessee since the late 90\'s, somewhere between \'98 and 2000. ^^ I was introduced by my cousin, who let me play Megaman X1 on his SNES. I was hooked instantly, and even then I was obsessed with Zero. ^_^ ((Still am! >_>))
Since then, I\'ve been introduced to Battle Network, NT Warrior(the anime), started reading the ...
Many authors introduce their books with a caution: it is inevitable that somewhere in this book there is an error. This is a common claim in prefaces. But do the authors that write these claims believe them or not?
If the author is asked of each specific claim in the book Is this an error? then he will say No. The author believes every claim that he makes, he believes of each individual claim that it is true.
This means, though, that the author believes that every claim in the book is ...
Nihilism is the view that nothing exists. There are different kinds of nihilism; one can be a moral nihilist, for instance, holding that morality does not exist, or a religious nihilist, holding that God does not exist. The problem of the specious present supports a universal nihilism, the view that nothing whatsoever exists.
In order for something to exist it must have duration, it must exist for a certain amount of time. To say that something exists for no time at all, that at the very ...
The Barber paradox is attributed to the British philosopher Bertrand Russell. It highlights a fundamental problem in mathematics, exposing an inconsistency in the basic principles on which mathematics is founded.
The barber paradox asks us to consider the following situation:
In a village, the barber shaves everyone who does not shave himself, but no one else.
The question that prompts the paradox is this:
Who shaves the barber?
If the barber shaves himself, then he does not s ...
What does it mean when somone expresses \"oro\" in a manga (also known as a graphic novel in the west). i am just a little curiouse as to what it is used to express, however my educated guess is its somthing along the lines of confusion...
Tonight someone was cloning my Nicname and font on Compuserve chat, so I decided to get out the screen capture apps and expose the sucka. Too bad the whole room knows his screen name now.
Who would agree that being a detective to this type of BS is justice?:devil:
I\'ve been to some sites with oekaki boards (before I found Ioekaki and now that\'s the only one I use :P) that offer a regular oekaki and a thing where everyone draws on the same board. Sometimes, the applet comes with a feature where the moderator can save the group oekaki in a public database.
So, what do you think of Group BBS?
My own personal first experience with them was not earthshattering. I believe I found it a while back (before I even started drawing at the Ioekaki, and wi ...
Hilbert’s Hotel is a hotel with an infinite number of rooms, each one of which is occupied. The hotel gives rise to a paradox: the hotel is full, and yet it has vacancies.
That the hotel is full is obvious. It has an infinite number of rooms, and an infinite of guests; every room is occupied. That the hotel has vacancies is a little more difficult to demonstrate.
Suppose that a new visitor arrives; can he be accommodated? At first it seems that he cannot, but then the hotel clerk has a ...
Achilles and the Tortoise in one of Zeno’s paradoxes. It appears to demonstrate that even the fastest of runners, Achilles, could not catch the slowest of creatures, the tortoise, if the tortoise were given a head start.
To get from one place to another takes time. If the distance between the two is very small, or the speed of travel is very fast, then it may take a very short amount of time, but it will take some time nevertheless. It is impossible to move from one point to another insta ...
The Liar Paradox is among the simplest of paradoxes. It can be traced back at least as far as Eubulides of Miletus, a fourth-century B.C. Greek philosopher.
Eubulides’ version of the paradox is this: A man says that he is lying; is what he says true or false?
If what the man says is true, then he is lying, in which case what he says is false.
If what the man says is false, then he is not lying, in which case what he says is true.
Either case appears to give rise to a logical cont ...
If two statements are logically equivalent, if they assert exactly the same thing, then any evidence for one is evidence for the other. This principle appears to be truism; the Hempel’s Ravens paradox, however, seems to show that it’s false.
Using this principle, the Hempel’s Ravens paradox suggests that an observation of a green parrot is evidence that ravens are black. The paradox goes like this:
Consider the two statements:
(1) All ravens are black.
(2) Everything that isn\'t bl ...
Zeno’s arrow paradox appears to show that motion is impossible.
It works by taking a snapshot of the arrow at a point (in either space or time) in its flight. At that point, and at every other, the arrow is motionless. If there is no point, spatially or temporally, at which the arrow is moving, though, then the arrow is not moving. Motion, then, is impossible.
Let’s put it this way:
Consider an arrow at any point in its flight; it is motionless. Motion occurs through space, not at o ...
