Buying tickets for the Louvre online is an frustrating. There 2 resellers: one for the US and one world-wide but the only options are to pay with credit card and either pick them up in a shop in France or to deliver them with DHL for 25€.
@Mojo_Jojo do you have any experience with buying tickets at a Carrefour or Virgin Mégastore?

That is weird. I have no experience with buying tickets at French Virgin but I used to do it all the time back in Manchester. It was a special desk somewhere in the upper reaches of the building.
It can't be so difficult though. I imagine you'll just need to go to a specific store with your card and they'll hand you the tickets.
Sorry, I'm not very useful here.
Edit: Wait, you're under 26, aren't you. The Louvre should be free for you.

I am. Wait, can you just walk up to one of the side entrances, show your passport and get in?
Yep. I did this myself when I was a young 25 year old stallion.
Edit, Louvre website:
La gratuité d'accès aux collections permanentes du musée du Louvre et au musée Eugène-Delacroix est accordée, sur présentation d'un justificatif en cours de validité, pour :
- les moins de 18 ans - les jeunes de 18 à 25 ans résidents dans l'un des pays de l'Espace Economique Européen
- les enseignants titulaires du Pass Éducation
- les enseignants en histoire des arts, histoire de l'art, arts plastiques, arts appliqués, en activité, sur présentation d'un justificatif mentionnant la matière enseignée
- les artistes plasticiens affiliés à la Maison des Artistes et à l'AIAP (Association internationale des arts plastiques)
- les demandeurs d'emploi et les bénéficiaires des minima sociaux (justificatif daté de moins d'un an)
- les visiteurs handicapés et leur accompagnateur.
So, it's only the permanent collections that are free. You get a reduced rate for the special exhibitions though (I've a feeling they are also free for under 26's between 6pm and 10pm)

If you find someone who's equally smart and well-informed as you are, and they disagree with you about something--something where, before discovering the disagreement, you would have said they were just as likely to be right as you--what should you do?
Yeah, it's pretty good, especially for a casual crowd. The only obnoxious thing the the labyrinthine science scoring system (and the fact that the wonders don't seem balanced).
All the fun of Diablo2, none of the bullshit born of twelve year old game design.
Meh to Diablo 3
But if Blizzard wants to get around to releasing the next installment of Starcraft 2? Like, ever? That would be awesome.
All in good time - considering it was over ten years between starcraft 1 and 2, they could get into a 3-4 year schedule for each release and be considered to be moving at a good pace.
Just to be contrary, Starcraft 1 came out on March 31st, 1998 and Brood War came out November 30th, 1998.
The production value of the stuff they are making today doesn't compare. It takes much longer when working with the kind of hardware and art asset detail to deliver a product.
Blizzard is also being judged MUCH more harshly than they were back then because people expect total perfection from them due to their overwhelming success in the industry. Anything less and their stuff is considered "meh" or "below expectations".
So, since they pull in over a hundred million dollars a month in subscriber fees, and more on top of that in software sales there really isn't any reason for them to release anything until they want to.
Yeah, they went from making one of the most popular games of all time with starcraft, to making one of the other most popular games of all time with Diablo II, to making one of the most dominantly popular and financially successful games of all time with WoW. That's not a streak you want to break by releasing a subpar product.
I think I would actually like Blizzard to be like a super-popular actor and take the time to just release some indie-ish things. Fuck it, you're rich as hell, why not take some risks?
I know they won't, because that's hardly Bobby Kotick's style, but I can dream.

Why do you want to ruin my dream? i know how it is in the game industry, that's exactly why I want to have a job in it, so i can change it for the better from within. If It don't work, i can always do, well, just about anything i set my mind to, really.
So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.

Answer: you should suspend judgment.
That's silly because they aren't me and I believe in myself so I'm going to think I'm right.

I've been reading that Valve employee handbook. Man, that sounds like a really interesting place to work at.

Check out my site, the Bismuth Heart | My Twitter
but i set it too quietly and then turned it off it seems and slept till 1
so i wasnt gonna go then
and then i slept from 2-6:30
whoops at missing his party, yay for lots of sleep
Still should've come, because that shit was just starting to get crazy at midnight!
It really is! I kinda want one now.
I really hope that "smooth transition" can be turned off. It's a touch too slow even just watching the demonstration.
But I found it $10 cheaper than at ThinkGeek and it was in stock. Should be here tomorrow.
EDIT: That reminds me, @mim Look at this Pen!!
That's silly because they aren't me and I believe in myself so I'm going to think I'm right.
