  1. If I created a monster I would name him Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen. how do you pronounce that?
  2. Duh! Try this on for size. sissy
  3. what have I started! I've created a Monster!!
  4. hey CaTesta, here's an interesting exercise: how would YOU pronounce it? (or anyone else for that matter)
  5. eh, it helps post count! (1: at least I tried, you took a cheap shot that had "ONLY POST COUNT" written all over it) (2: you'd be amazed what silly shee-it these Urpeens come up with all the time, breaking their tongues to order a simple drink and all that...)
  6. my informed guess and yet I'm sure some Scandinavian will correct me: Neels (with short EE, like in Nina) Hè-ning (Hè with short è, like in Men; "ning" like the Ming vase) Orsted, has a / through the O, which (AFAIK) means that it is pronounced like the German Ö, just like the Swedish cook does all the time, you know the "eh..." like you're thinking what to say next. Much like the French "eu" in Bleu, but shorter. I would expect there is a tiny more emphasis on the second syllable than none at all. Just to make it all more difficult of course, I'm sure. Pèdersen, has the emphasis on the first syllable and on nothing else. The "e" in "Ped" is short, much like the one in Henning. "ederson" just flows away, like in the English name Petersen, or Ronaldson, or Whateverson.
  7. did the same thing. Incredible, the guy thinks he can bring us the final analysis of every fart any player lets go. Really obnoxious this time. I hope he gets fired along with Tante Käthe
  8. you may have wondered why the Dutch were so silent on this thread today. It was not only because I was away from my 'puter, but also because I for one never thought this Dutch team had shown enough to reach the finals. And it is also because I have been way too busy being bothered by the German commentator (throughout the tournament, he increased his bullshit efforts extra special 'cause this is a semi-final... ). The result is like it should be. The Dutch played some nice stuff, some had pretty brilliant ideas, but brilliancy could not work really with this team. Too many too individual players who have not shown enough of a team spirit. Did I say not enough? Make that almost none.... So, may the football gods be kind and may those CRAZY Portugese win! They have shown us how to play the game.
  9. has bloopers too!
  10. silver disks may suck, copy protection may suck, black EMI logos may suck, red EMI logos may suck more, big ass FBI warnings may suck, even bigger copy protection crap text on the back may suck even more, but the worst they could do to the package is mess with the front cover. Finally they got away from that CompactDisk thingy on every cover, finally the try to stay real close to the original, and then what? They paste some stoopid & ugly & VERY BIG COPY PROTECT logo all over it. All European only, and only on the Capitols, but this shit tends to spread...
  11. European only
  12. pff, that's nothing. Look at this! that's right! big ass logo on the FRONT COVER. Almost one QUARTER of the back tray taken up by copy control messages. The music is what counts, but this is ridiculous.
  13. correct, all searches are down.
  14. maybe next week would be a better choice than last week.
  15. The Prestige box offers all of the material in the "right" order. Like the Europe material it fits nicely on two disks and that would certainly be a nice package. Now it is all "conveniently" spread over 4 albums (?). Luckily somebody already has seen enough light to include the other take of Bee Vamp (originally on the Dash One album) on 5Spot Vol. 1. That still leaves 5Spot Vols 1 & 2, Memorial Album, and Here And There. Or did I miss something?
  16. soundtrack
  17. hey if you gonna post that one again, here's a nice alternate take: (small file size uploaded below:)
  18. lucky me that I don't have it then... scary psycho! (second one today...)
  19. goes for plenty money on the usual second hand outlets... 30 to 50 dollars(?) though one person on the German amazon.de marketplace "only" wants 14EUR for it.
  20. real Gyros has A LOT of garlic in that yummy yoghurt sauce, making it much less than an ideal lunchbreak snack...
