led zeppelin concert

Will the Dec 10 Led Zeppelin concert be televised or anything? Maybe on the internet, or are they gonna restrict it to the few thousand lucky folks that get tickets? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.101.53.160 (talk) 02:37, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What was the GDP of Azeroth, in USD, for the last 1-year period for which data are available? Also, what was the rate of inflation of the gold piece? NeonMerlin 06:44, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For those of us whose geographic knowledge is limited to the real universe, this refers to the fictional Warcraft universe. StuRat (talk) 22:16, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

solve me

i really hate asking questions which i can get thru googling.but i dont know why i aint getting this one.and its a fun trivia or riddle i have once come across it,befor the 19th century americans had never seen it.what is it...i also remember laughing to the answer,in wikipedia therez a dood who really knows how to google,i am nnot sure of his name but his a member.i have tried his tricks of applying * to lessen my such results but noyhing comes up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.24.99.188 (talk) 14:43, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A banana? That's what I got when I googled anyway. The * is a wildcard in google, so that would return more results, not less. The quotes are used to search for a phrase, like "americans had never seen". Recury 15:46, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's kind of hard to answer that question, it could be anything. Are you sure that was the whole riddle?--Dlo2012 (talk) 23:12, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

tv shows falling off leather chair

trying to remember a programe where someone can't sit on a leather chair and keeps falling off.195.167.178.194 15:38, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds familiar, was it Jack on Three's Company ? StuRat (talk) 22:11, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That's probably ben done more than once. I think I saw it on The Cosby Show when they went to Sondra and Elvin's apartment and they had a bunch of bad furniture. The bit I remember most clearly is that Cliff sat in a chair and the arm broke off. From List of The Cosby Show episodes I think it was "October 27, 1988 Move It (a.k.a. The Baby Game) Everyone wants pregnant Sondra and Elvin to find a new house." --tcsetattr (talk / contribs) 05:39, 6 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Truman (film)

Do any of you know where one can bye Truman (film) region 2 DVD (Europe)? Region 1 is easy to find but not region 2. Thank you. /Funsides —Preceding unsigned comment added by Funsides (talkcontribs) 18:29, 4 December 2007 (UTC) (move from article talk page by --— Gadget850 (Ed) talk - 18:43, 4 December 2007 (UTC))[reply]

[1]. Lots of choice there. Neil  13:55, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
AFAIK any DVD player can be hacked to be all-region. There are websites dedicated to providing lists of hack codes and you just key in the one for your model (can be risky if you miskey). Alternatively a region-free DVD copy can be made, which is probably illegal but what else is one supposed to do in that situation?--Shantavira|feed me 14:03, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I found it in one of Neil's links. Funsides (talk) 17:53, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Relient K and homosexuality

Does anyone know if the Christian rock band Relient K has made any public statements about homosexuality? Thanks 67.55.199.146 (talk) 21:38, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If they did, i bet it would have been in the wikipedia article about them. Check Relient K —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dlo2012 (talkcontribs) 23:17, 4 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

More along the lines of making comments about gay marriage or religion...something like that. 216.159.75.146 (talk) 17:56, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
