    Believe it or not, in reality Google sells on the NYSE for over 100 billion dollars. Which is greater then Yahoo, but significantly less than Microsoft.

    Also note the widespread expression "google it" to mean "search for it on the internet". Now if someone was to coin such a phrase I don't think they'd use some small and worthless company. Google is basically everywhere, and publicity = money.

    Still, I have heard that Yahoo should have a better development in controling the net. Control = MONEY

    *slaps forehead*

    The fact that Gassy misunderstood it as well is a little comforting though.

    No offense to Karune. I think he is doing a great job on the community front.
    Seeing as he had nothing to do with the original, I don't really see the fit.
    Personally I'd be more interested in something autographed by Samwise, or Metzen even.

    That said... I highly doubt they would be impressed to find out that you eBay'ed the autograph as soon as you got home. It could be perceived as disrespectful.

    Mis-read. I got Intrigue instead of Disbelief.
    Sorry about that.

    This is going to be very interesting. Make sure to let them know how much the Starcraft fan community appreciates their work. They have brought endless hours of untold joy and fascination into so many peoples lives. Not to many people can claim that they have done that.

    Also please politely demand that they send beta keys to everyone in this forum, that is all. ;D

    Remember to take lots and lots of pictures while you're there, as many as you're allowed to take.

    Have a safe trip Jon.

    Haha... Well I guess this is ASAP. I don't technically meet with Blizzard until Tomorrow, Tuesday the 11th. Right now I'm stuck in Houstin International Airport because my flight got delayed until 8:30ish.

    Oh wellz. Here's the pictures I've taken so far of my trip....

    Tampa International just before takeoff.

    OMG IT'S A BABY ON A PLANE! Make a movie! (It was actually a cool baby. It never cried, unlike the evil baby 5 rows ahead. :D)
    [img width=500 height=375]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a246/J0neagle/IMG_0032.jpg[/img]

    Houston International: Bored as hell.
    [img width=500 height=375]http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a246/J0neagle/IMG_0033-1.jpg[/img]

    Still bored as hell.

    I swear I've seen you somewhere before, that baby looks so family. Deja Vu.

    Btw tell Blizzard we hate the Colossus new attack. But we hugely love the Zerg. Queen ftw.
