Post #266,911 by jb4 9/7/06 10:39:52 AM Reply	WTF is this?!? Real pops up a message box with some unintelligible gibberish: Unable to locate server. this server does not have a DNS entry. Please check the server name in the URL and try again. rtsp://rm.z1.mii-streaming.net/media/pbs/quicktime_real/wnet/nature/octopus/sharkT1.rm More information is available at the RealNetworks Technical Support Website The message also supplies a "more Info..." button that, of course, doesn't work. The WTF is for the protocol type: WTF is rtsp:? I'm by no means an internet demighod, but I ain't never heard of that one. (No wonder Large Giant Corp's DNS can't find the server....) jb4 "So don't pay attention to the approval ratings that say 68% of Americans disapprove of the job this man is doing. I ask you this, does that not also logically mean that 68% approve of the job he's not doing? Think about it. I haven't." — Stephen Colbert, at the White House Correspondent's Dinner 29Apr06

Post #266,964 by Meerkat 9/7/06 6:56:44 PM Reply	Ah, well... ...maybe it's the special 'John didn't turn the Amp on quick enough so he missed the commentary at the start' version, but I was sure the PBS version had a bit of 'blah blah blah that was a deadly mistake blah blah' at the start that wasn't in the YouTube version I linked to. Never mind. Octopus eats shark. Film at 11. Two out of three people wonder where the other one is.

Post #267,087 by Andrew Grygus 9/8/06 9:30:58 PM Reply	What recipe did you use? [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
Post #267,094 by bionerd 9/8/06 10:27:53 PM Reply	Recipe? Yeah right, like that's gonna happen. I shipped her off to live with my ex. That way she is technically still my kid's dog, but I dont have to deal with her hair, her incessant barking, her neurosis, or her poop. Instant relief and minimal guilt.
