you dont pay to rate games.. you get payed Viz to rate the games..

I myself i play some hockey for fun and i enjoy watching it.. but my fav team i cannot pinpoint one team.. i have a number of two fav teams.. which would be the boston bruins and the montreal canadians..
they are both a very aggressive team and rivals.

i came upon the site accidentally myself. i find it is a great way to play old games.

so as we all know xbox and playstation have been in battle for years, and probably years to come but the question now is with the nintendo wii being out.. what is a better gaming console with graphics, technology, memory, everything that can be compared.. what do you all think about each console?

here are some specs i found on each gaming console..

the power of improbability.. (the improbability of such rare coincidences) if you have that.. you can basicaly have any power that you would want or like to have control of. no one would know you're next move. they could not figure out what you were doing or what you would do..

hey everyone.. just stoppin in the newbie forum to say hey...
was just wondering how i could make Viz fast easy any suggestionS?

i think the whole swine thing is dumb, don't get the shot it has not been tested enough to know the symptoms.. look at this.. see what it did to this beautiful girl.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uR5p_bD3uLc

she had the shot.. and her symptoms are horrid.. i would not trust it.. just get the flu.. like other flu's out their it is a minor one and you are cured from it for the rest of you're life.. their are no real ways to stay away from it. if you have friends who have it stay away from them for a few days maybe a week..
some symptoms may be worse on other though.. but they have the cure so if it gets bad.. it is treatable.

water horse shuffle.

I'm not sure how.. but that is a good question cause I would like to know how myself.. if someone could please respond with a valid explanation.

one.. it should not be up to the girl to ask the man out, it should be the man asking the girl.. i find it is more respectful that way.. you don't see women get on their knees and propose. but if you find that, that is the only way things may work between the two of you, then ask him little questions like what he thinks of you as a freind more of a friend, tell him you feel ugly see if he compliments you..
pop the question ask him out if you feel he may not ask you..
maybe he does dumb things around you cause hes really comfortable around you.. he likes you a lot..
you only have one life.. you will never know how he feels unless you ask.. what would it hurt to find out? if he does then GREAT.. if he don't then you wont sit around waiting for him right? and if you do start dating, things start going bad.. then just talk with him try to solve it if it don't work then make the decision to be just friends again..

hope this was helpful..

I think they may be over doing it if they would come out with a playstation four! but if they come out with a new exbox, they would need to compete and that may be the only way to do so.. nintendo is also starting to compete again..

Cleadus would be a great name for you're cow!!
