I'm exactly the same way. I don't eat cheese except on pizza and on a very occasional chicken cutlet parmesan. While Philadelphia residents will hiss and boo, there is a pretty good Philly-steak place in Manhattan called Carl's steaks. I get it without cheese, with onions and with marinara sauce. I'm sure they'll think this is sacrilegious.

Hi Troy. The web page looks great as always. Unknown should sound awesome in your theater. Hope you have a full house. :rock:

FREYMAX 3D 08-29-2011 03:44 PM

Hey guys, I saw something interesting on the way to work this morning - I pulled out of a T intersection right behind a Ford Focus hatchback that had just passed through the intersection, the car had a weird-looking, 6-foot tall object with a big, 18" diameter ball on top, inside a tight-fitting leather cover, mounted with guy-wires to a metal rack attached to the roof - "wtf is THAT?" I wondered... so I stepped on the gas and my little Scion xD leapt forward like lightning (lol!) to catch up to the suspect vehicle... here it turned out, the car was all painted up with images and signs for "Google Maps Street View" and the object on the roof was a 4-way camera, and I suppose GPS or satellite hardware inside the ball... I happened to have my camera in the car with me, so I whipped it out and took a few photos through the windshield - I'll download them off my camera tonight when I get home and post one up... :cool:

Fors* 08-29-2011 03:46 PM

Sounds pretty cool Troy......where were you exactly when you saw it?

In Mount Joy, I had just passed by the MJ Firehall on New Haven St. and came up to the stop sign at 772... I followed him all the way to Marietta and down 441 to Columbia and onto Route 30 West - I passed him on the Susquehanna river bridge heading over into York County...

I bet I missed seeing you or that car by only a few minutes....I am usually over that bridge going west on Route 30 at around 7:25 AM or so every morning.....

FREYMAX 3D 08-29-2011 04:05 PM

yeah, about 15 minutes or so - we were crossing the river at about 7:40am...

bz1080p 08-30-2011 12:38 PM

Good morning Troy:D
Open this one at home;)

FREYMAX 3D 08-30-2011 03:37 PM

Morning guys. Busy morning, I need a break soon. Almost lunch.

Was raking up all the fallen leaves and tree branches in my front yard from Irene last night, got a full bag of leaves and nice pile of branches to get rid of now, and I'm only about half-way done... and it's not even Fall yet, grrr.... :mad:

Waboman 08-30-2011 05:39 PM

What's up, sir Freyster?

That's why you have kids. Throw a rake in their hands and tell 'em to stop yapping and start raking.:whip:

Now it's lunch time. http://www.myemoticons.com/images/ho...g/sandwich.gif

FREYMAX 3D 08-30-2011 06:33 PM

My 10 yr old daughter was with me last night, she did help - she picked up all the branches and twigs while I raked. :cool:

My dad got laid off of his PT job back in April, and he finally got another job today, he'll be making less per hour but a lot more hours, 30/week, so my parents will have a better paycheck to live off of. My dad is 73, so finfing a job was a challenge, to say the least! :relief:

Fors* 08-30-2011 06:51 PM

I still have my fair share to mow over. I picked up all the branches, but most small twigs and leaves I will just run over with the lawn mower tomorrow after work. Good thing I cut down that huge branch off of our one tree in the backyard on Friday evening, just before Irene came. The darn thing was rotted at the bottom and it fell (just last Tuesday, after the earthquake) and then rested on top of one of the fence posts luckily, and not the fence itself, otherwise the fence probably would not have supported it. However, the branch was almost a foot wide, so it took a lot of sawing to cut it up into smaller pieces where I could bundle all the big pieces and branches up. Sorry, but I have no power tools, so I had to cut all of those darn braches by hand. I even had my axe handy if the saw wasn't going to "cut it." ;)

FREYMAX 3D 08-30-2011 08:19 PM

yeah, I have no chainsaw either for cutting, gasoline or electric...

I called the Cable TV company yesterday and told them I have a big branch hanging down on their line, they said they would have the service guy come out and disconnect the line from the pole across the street so I could take the branch down... I guess it will take a few days for them to get caught up enough to get to my little job, as they didn't show up at all yesterday...

Do you have Comcast? If so, I am not surprised at all for the delay.....between all the work I did in my backyard and you did in yours this spring/summer, I say we both deserve a few cold beers! :beer: :beer: :beer:

I'll drink to that! :thumbsup:

No, we have Blue Ridge Cable here in Manheim, from Ephrata... but I don't use the Cable, I have Directv. Probably why they aren't in any hurry to service me, lol...

FREYMAX 3D 08-30-2011 09:08 PM

I just bought a new laser printer for home from Newegg, a Samsung ML-3312ND, they had it as their Shell-Shocker deal this morning for only $99 with free shipping. Got high ratings from reviewers. I ordered it at 12:15pm, got the UPS shipping/tracking# notice at 4:00, shipping from Edison NJ, so it will arrive tomorrow! :rock:

That will make a real nice replacement for the HUGE HP Laserjet 5si I'm using as my b&w printer right now - Free up some (a lot of) space on my computer shelf, that's for sure.

I saw that deal but I had already bought a replacement for my HP. Let's us know how the printer does once you get it. And for god sake let's try a new avatar. :crazy:

Looking through your website. 2 questions: Why is Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole highlighted a different color? Did you like it?

I had to look to see what you were talking about, but I see now - I think I listed that movie in orange text because it was a showing by request, rather than a scheduled Monthly Movie Night - like the movies listed for summer 2008 further up the list are shown in orange... The only thing is, I've shown a slew of "by request" movie nights that I never posted up on that list, it would be 4 pages long if I did, probably! oh well. :)

I totally loved LotG - so much so that I bought the 3D Blu-ray version, even though I don't have any 3D capabilities in my theater, yet... I even bought a double-sided movie poster of LotG for my light box! The CGI is superb, and I especially love those dramatic slo-motion scenes in HD - they are totally jaw-dropping... I get goose-bumples all over every time I watch those scenes, lol... :thumbsup:

I'm really disappointed so many people thought the story sucked, I'm at a loss - I thought it was a great story! :shrug:

bguzman 08-31-2011 04:36 PM

I liked the movie enough to buy it too. I think of it as 300 with owls and less blood splatter :rock:.

Heheh - My 14 year old daughter has a big crush on Draco Malfoy right now, so I figured I should be allowed to fantasize over Bellatrix a little, myself... :D

FREYMAX 3D 09-01-2011 01:49 AM

Well, my new Samsung ML-3312ND laser printer arrived at home today, to take the place of my 15 year old HP Laserjet 5Si behemoth. The new printer was definitely a nice buy at a sale price of only $99 - 1200 dpi, 33 ppm, 64mb, 660mhz dual-core processor, auto-duplexing, 6 seconds to first page, 100Mbit ethernet and USB ports. Its very quick and very quiet.

The Laserjet 5Si prints at 30ppm, 1200dpi, also has a duplexer, and it's built like a tank - but it's loud, slow to start (almost a full minute to first page), and it has one really glaring drawback, as you can plainly see:

http://freytheater.com/forum/printers.jpg

Size matters! :D Another plus for the Samsung - it doesn't dim the lights in the entire house when it powers up from sleep mode to print, LOL! :eek:

I need to buy it. I rented it. The CGI/animation was crazy. :rock: The quality was just superb. Cannot imagine it getting better, but sure it will. The story was great too. Not a Disney film, more like Secret of NIMH, a little dark.

Honestly, I hate owls. They perched outside my window in San Diego and hooted for hours.

Haha, yeah - I likened it similar to a Lord of the Rings movie - I was totally expecting to see the Eye of Sauron on top of a tall tower appear, when they ventured into the firey land of the Pure Ones, lol! :D
