but i am a God, so i can turn it which ever way I want to... no?

I'm starving. I haven't eat anything for 1.5 days (only water). Just eat a wafer today
Yesterday's plan to eat was foiled by this thread. So, if this is a complete lie, I would be mad.

Default Rumor is poison to the ear!!!

guys,

I am really hoping that WB becomes exclusive to bluray. but it is a rumor, i don't see any link/news/reference/evidence proving it to be a fact. unless the person that started this is a psychic (which by the way i don't believe a single word they say, and won't even bother listening to one to tell me the future).

Just not so long ago Warner Bros stated that they are staying format neutral, and will watch sales very close during the 4th Q. http://www.twice.com/article/CA6477849.html

I don't know, but i guess i will wake up early morning tomorrow and check it out.

again, I am hoping this to be true.

Depends on how you want to interpret that, since there's the International Date Line in the Pacific. Japan sees the sunrise on September 27th before U.S. (in fact, they are about to see the sunset on September 27th and the sun hasn't even risen in U.S. for September 27th), but to confund it all, the sunrise in eastern U.S. is around the same time as sunset in Japan. So if you are flying from U.S. to Japan, it feels like time is slowing down.

I can also give you the story about the rewinding clock with the Concorde (R.I.P. by the way, a technoligical marvel way before its time), but I'd probably date myself so I'm stopping now.

enjoy

well by saying japan sees the sun b4 the states, I meant the same day's sun (hmmm it doesnt come out right, but u got the idea), and that's the reason why Japan, Nippon( にっぽん/日本) is considered "Land of the Rising Sun"

btw, I travel way too much from Vancouver to Tokyo, Osaka and ShangHai, so it doesnt seem that the time is slowing down, after all I Am not 3 yrs old...

にっぽん/日本

No, its actually "nihon" spelling: not "nippon" (never heard of this before).
にほん
日本

Although for some strange reason, Nippon is also used in romaji form (banknote - Nippon Ginko)
