RE: No-go for me.

<t> I very highly second the lawn mowing idea, even though you've got the game on the way now, if you want some extra money!&nbsp; A friend and I did that when we were 15/16 over a summer, and made an absolute KILLING- all you need is a lawn mower and way to get to your lawns (hint: shoot for yo...

RE: Worst Actors Ever

My vote goes to Vin Diesel.

He was great in Saving Private Ryan when he got shot, and IMO that should be his own character-acting specialty, and all he's ever allowed to do in a movie.&nbsp;
