markb658 Something heavy would be going through the monitor!, In pure exorcist style then the monitor starts turning around like the head in the film, But seriously, i'd prob freak out and smash it to bits!

markb658 Its the best one out there, Great for small amounts of money for people getting a little extra cash, and people dealing with large amounts, like on ebay, Using Alertpay just scares me!

markb658 I think its a brilliant show, alot of the other ghost shows just have a fake/spoofy feel about them, but i genuinly enjoy watching this program, watching the repeats on LivingTV at the moment, love it.

Yes, I need a mouse for my laptop. Although it is OK to be without a mouse, but I still think it is much more convenient to use a mouse.

They are more convenient aren't they? Less heavy, carry on the go, connecting on wireless internet while driving on the road or in a coffee shop. I use one myself - don't have time to carry around desktops or reach under the desk...

Just finished season 2, Sylar is back, exciting! Sylar has multi powers, but he is sure not invincible, how many heroes do you think are capable of killing him?

heroes sylar

4 responses

markb658 Out of all of them, Peter has the most chance of killing him i'd say, because any power Sylar uses on him, peter can just use it back, so he'll always be one step ahead of sylar, And the fight they had at the end of series 1, IMO peter came out on top in that...
