Yeah, I can understand Bruce. There is nothing like 3 (count them - 3) awesome screaming guitars in your face.

Iron Maiden is my all time favorite band period. I've been following them for over 25 years.....

Just listening to them made me want to change my avatar.

Time for a new version of Eddie: courtesy of Photoshop!

Up the irons!

BTW: My computer now hates me..... why oh why did you make me listen to that?

That's an excellant little router, I have had (and sold & setup) many of them, my last one burnt up in the fire and is a blob of molton plastic now... Sure do miss it.

It's was replaced with a DIR-655, Works good, but not happy with the UI, I will most likely get another WRT45GL!

Have any of you seen the WRT54GL robot??
Yup, turned into wireless controlled robot!

-Enjoy

welp i threw in that amp successfully today and now i can wake up the whole neighborhoor now instead of just the neighbors! lol... was worried 400W wouldent be enough but it's plenty, almost too much for my little cab... next step is gonna be a capacitor (feel free to correct the spelling i know it sucks) then perhaps better quality speakers, but for now i'm a very happy camper!

also the olds wasent ready today ches (the lazy ******* ) hasent gotten around to putting it back togeather... says it will be done by tommrow!

and the lady's car is back out of the shop, the guy fixed the problem for free today! i will certainly be doing business with this guy again, if anyone needs tranny work in the springfield/branson/reed's spring missouri area PM me and i'll put you in touch with him

I watched the whole disc 1 as well, but I can't find a good copy of disc 2 except for PAL versions which are not compatible with North American DVD players.

It's pretty cool when the lead singer (Bruce Dickinson) actually flies Flight 666 around the world. Could you imagine being in an airport and seeing that thing rolling up to a gate?

<img src="http://clouddragon.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/flight-666-1.jpg" width = 600>

I've only seen a couple of their songs from disc 2. VH1 is running awesome concerts for the next month or two and they had Maiden on the other night.

I'm still searching for a good NTSC copy of disc 2, but I'm not having any luck (yet).

Sweet. I love Fastback's.

I would jump on that car if the price was right. They are getting harder and harder to find.

Pretty cool that you can use width and height html tags no?

I found out by accident once and was pretty surprised that the forum supports html within a post.
