If I may put in my 2 cents, and obviously I'm going to anyway, considering I always do, I highly recommend the newest Sid Meiers release, Civilization Revolution. I'd go through the specs but I'm sure you could find them on the internet. Good times and relatively bearable to sit through an entire game in one sitting (depending on what level you're playing at and how you want to win, it could take anywhere from 2 hours to 8 hours to win) And God help you if you try to play online, I had a 13 hour civilization-a-thon with some ass who made Helen Keller (blind, deaf, and more specifically at this current age dead, I think?) seem like a great conversationalist. At least I won.

I actually had a feeling that might be true, and it would explain why the eBay platform is suspiciously bad at tickets. Care to list some of the alternatives? Thanks for the post! Blast!

I used to work for them shooting the building for their international ad work! Glad you loved the City! Oh, and Starfleet headquarters is actually located just outside of Sausilito, just over the Golden Gate on the Marin side, at a place called Fort Baker. I figured that out as soon as I moved here! :-p -Michael The building you saw, in the picture, was the Transamerica Pryamid!

I has subscribed to match and i found somebody. So I came back in and removed my profile. However apparrently the"auto renew" status on an account that I dont use was still on. I contacted Match via email on the day of the charge on my disabled account and they refused a refund so I called my credit card company and they refunded the charge. I agree it is totally dishonest of Match. I had the same issue. I has subscribed to match and i found somebody. So I came back in and removed my profile.
