"We are now in Storm Alert mode here!" "We have a category 5 hurricane, Hurricane Gil, expected to make landfall directly into downtown Honolulu. Those of you who haven't evacuated, well good luck." :rofl2:
Replace "downtown Honolulu" with "the TWC Today Forums". :p

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vince_Guaraldi ...

Quote from: Wikipedia
Vince Guaraldi (July 17, 1928 – February 6, 1976) was an American jazz musician and pianist best known for composing music for animated adaptations of the Peanuts comic strip. Guaraldi was born in San Francisco, California. He graduated from Lincoln High School, attended San Francisco State College, and served as an Army cook in the Korean War.

[...]

Early Death

Guaraldi died of a sudden heart attack at age 47 on February 6, 1976. He was found in a room at the Red Cottage Inn, relaxing between sets at Butterfield's nightclub in Menlo Park, California. Guaraldi had just finished recording the soundtrack for It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown earlier that afternoon. Guaraldi was buried at Holy Cross Cemetery, Colma, California.

After Guaraldi's death, the music for the Peanuts series was composed by noted jazz musician David Benoit, who has often credited Guaraldi and the original Peanuts Christmas special music for his interest in jazz.

In 2003 a heretofore unknown live performance of the eight-part "Charlie Brown Suite" was released, restored from tapes in private collections.


He died in the 1970s. He was pretty young when he died.

Yes, there have been three named storms in the Atlantic basin this season. Only one, Tropical Storm Barry, has made landfall in the US.

I'm about to smash something right now. I got my TV tuner today, and I think something went wrong with thr driver install, because I can only hear audio and see a green screen in Windows Media Center. :angry:
Got it working! Prepare for some high-quality TWC videos. 8) :D

Why is the quality of the video (especially the audio) so bad??
I blame my insanely old capture equipment. Both by capture card and VCR are well over 10 years old. But the good news is that within the next few days I should be getting a brand new ATSC digital tuner device. :D

It's 80° here too.... in my bedroom! :o I've got my door opened to let the A/C air in, so hopefully it'll cool down a bit soon. Our central air unit hasn't been working well lately, and we've had to use window units until it works. Of course, the window unit in my room doesn't work. <_<
It seems like it's always about 80 degrees in my room, even when the A/C is on.

Tyler once hosted a STAR database a while back but he stopped it since trolls kept messing it up.
Actually, it was just for the IntelliStar.
