Unless someone buys the website for, say, 20 million rupees. [...] [...] As you can see, GalacticPoo is officially one week old.

Away from the true american crap. The movie was sad in many parts but in fact reality...might have woken up a few people across the world. the shots were fantastic, the actors brilliant. Loved it and will watch it again. I thought the movie was great. Away from the true american crap.

In the German version of the show, when we had the transition from Deutsche Mark to Euros (conversion rate 1 Euro = 1.97 DM), they actually almost doubled the prize money: Now you can win 1 million Euros instead of 1 Million DM.
