I've played the 1st 3 Res Evil games, and I thought they were pretty scary. I'm going out to Playland tonight to pick up Silent Hill based on your description. And the other reply about Fatal Frame- I'll have to look that one up (I already knew a little bit about Silent Hill).
Of course, if I don't like it, I will have to hunt you down and roshambo (sp?) you!:)
This is off topic except for the parent's sig. Please excuse the spelling errors, and the use of paranthethis (I like 'em!)
I like your sig link. It made me think, especially the part about reversing the number of Muslims and Jews. I do not think that it would be an exact opposite, but I do think that the prevalence of democratic vs. dictatorships would reduce the level of violence considerably. Of course these assholes (the dictators/kings/etc) do not want to give up their power. I just can not figure out why the world (well, yes I can considering that several countries were making billions per year off them, ie. Iraq weapons deals) and factions of our country would side with groups that would rather leave Saddam Heusian (sorry about the spelling) in power to kill people within his borders rather than, for once, let the people of Iraq choose their own leaders. (If we, the US, prevent them from choosing an Islam rule, then we are wrong. They should have full choice)
If your sig link is correct, which I will have to check to verify, then I will have to review my stances on the Palestine/Israel debate.
But it seems that the truth, and I mean real truth, never gets to the news. Not the liberal news (I guess CNN), not the conservative news (I guess Rush Limbaugh), not the neutral news (I guess FOX News?- I've heard that they have a conservative slant).
This made me think- how far would the US get if it started terror bombing, say, Mexico or Canada to get territory or sanctions? France bombing Germany? Not real far is my guess, but I also guess that these parodies of nations get away with these same things because (hell if I know), and the UN says "whatever".
What about China, Sudan, South America (back during apartheid), etc. No problem while Mr. Heusian gasses a bunch of ethnic people that he doesn't like (the Kurds).
I know I've rambled all over, but I just wanted to find out why the hell can't people just agree that any kind of popular government is not better than a murdering dictator? Crap, even if they choose another dictator, at least they choose to screw themselves.
I know that the US gov has a bad grade for previous "interventions", and that this "war" was sold on WMDs, but isn't giving Iraq a choice at thier future a good thing? Yes, I agree that if we force thier choice for government is a bad thing.
End of rambling. Thanks for reading. Hope someone may have some sane answers for some of questions.
No disrespect to the parent, but shouldn't this be modded "+1, Obvious"? It's like saying if computers catch on, they will be a commodity and sold at Wal-Mart. And if doesn't catch on, it will be like Divx, soon to be extinct.
The idea is to be at the front of the demand curve where you can demand top prices, plus gain the experience in making and marketing the product so you can shave prices later while maintaining a larger margin than your competitors.
How the hell does this make any sense? And +5 funny? For anyone that saw the first SP movie, Saddam and Satan were lovers, and Saddam was the dominent one over Satan. Joke about Saddam being worse than satan.
Oh, Bush is worse than Saddam! Sorry, I forgot that Bush gassed 200,000 of his own people.
Jumpin' Christ on a frog- so much for facts anymore.
Most of what you said about Saddam is wrong. As for proof, the previous topic about the Iraq war had a comment that pointed out several sources that Iraq is still punishing its people. (No, I'm not going to find it for you)
Saddam's ethnic cleansing has not stopped, rape gangs still happen, and the Kurds and nowhere near "economic freedom", they live mostly because of the no fly zone in the north.
The sources from the previous thread include the New Yorker, CNN, and MSNBC.
Oh, you feel sick because he posted something with his ID on it, yet you have to bitch as an AC? fucking hypocrit.
what compassion should I exhibit to the soldiers, conscripted or not, that gas their own country, rape women, execute people for have dissenting political opinions, feed dead children to dogs, and use chemical weapons on their people? (All of the above actions were referenced in the previous Iraq article by various posters; I read the references and found them credible, if you want to dispute them, go read them and then try to dispute those claims- it won't be easy.)
Of course, since your are an AC, you will never see this. Fucking twat. You flaming piles of shit complaining about stuff you obviously have no idea about (otherwise you would explain how you are different from ""belly full, clothes clean, blissfully pursuing the American Dream without a fucking clue"".)
you just want to bitch about your tired old anti-american crap. do some travelling? to where? Bosnia, Rawanda, Serbia, South Africa a while ago, Israel or the Gaza strip? yeah, the rest of the world is so much more advanced than the US since they still promote ethnic and/or religious cleansing.
There have been several largish protests in various cities, and lots of smaller protests that don't make the national news.
The big one in New York wasn't allowed to march on their preferred route (past the UN on 1st Ave), but moved a couple of blocks to a less visible park. Yes, it was less visible, but letting them go past the UN would be pretty irresponsible, IMHO.
I skimmed the article, and did not read any of the comments, so this may have been already pointed out.
I came down with bronchitis which morphed into pneumonia this past week. I wasn't really enthused to go into work to tell my managers and coworkers that "Hey! I got pneumonia, I won't be in for a while." So I called in the first 3 days. Then I lost my voice to the point were I would have to repeat about 1/3 of everything I said. This doesn't work very well, so I turned to email, where I could describe all the wacky medical terms without having to say them 15 times each.
I know this is a very out-there situation, but today I had to call my wife at work (no email) and try and ask where the check book was because I had no cash left and I needed to see the doctor again. It took over 10 minutes for me to explain what I needed becuase my voice is so bad right now.
(Just for fun, here has been my last week, starting March 4- Bronchitis & Fever > Bronchitis & Ear infection, no fever > Pneumonia & ear infection & chest pain > Pneumonia & ear infection & torn rib cartillege. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!)
Paper under the tower increases electrolytic conductivity, which makes the drives spin faster, and the electrons flow quicker, which means faster performance! Each sheet of paper increases performance by 1%, so if you have 150 sheets of paper you can make your drive tower perform at 150% of mere normal drives.
You would think that people reading/. would know such simple performance enhancing features.
You, sir, are a mere poser. Come back when you figure out how large magnets increase the density of floppy disks!
"Part of the problem with this is that O3 is denser than air, and will, for the most part, rise high enough into the atmosphere. "
H2O is 18, O3 is 42, right? So, yes more dense, but why would a higher density gas rise higher than a lower density gas? Answer- O3 is actually made in the atmosphere, which is why you don't find it naturally in the lower atmosphere.
Another poster said the easy answer is to carefully pick your friends. That's good, but another consideration is to determine if you want this info to be passed around at all. Once you send it, anything can happen to it; it may even get sniffed if not encrypted.
Trespass is trepass no matter what you "intent" is. Trespass is a crime. If I have a sign on the borders of my property that says "No Trespassing", and you I find you on that land, I can have you arrested for trespassing; doesn't matter if you are a reporter, a donkey, or a regular person.
If you live in a US state that is big into hunting, and you cross "No Trespassing" or "Posted" signs, you literally take your life into your hands because there is a real risk of getting shot unless you are wearing a big orange vest.
As for walking across someone's lawn- the second I tell you to get off my property, if you don't, you are now trespassing (well not the very second, but if you hang around and take pictures and such).
Your idea of reporters trying to embarras the gov by trespassing making this ok is just idiotic. The gov doesn't prosecute because the reporter would publisize (sp?) the embarrasing stuff. Settling an embarrasing situation does NOT prove trespassing is legal.
I'd rather think that we would be in a world of shit if reporters were prevented from investigating the larger corporations in the US.

Good night, and take care!
Wow, that was a whole lotta stuff I never heard before. I just gotta say that you got da funk goin' on!
Just spoof an annoying co-workers IP so all your calls go to him/her. Your own personal secretary!

1- just wanted to let you know I read your comment, since you were worried it was going to get buried.
;)
2- I agree with most of what you said.
3- Monkeys are my friends!
"Lincoln the Butcher and his ilk"?
Don't you think that this is a bit much? Especially since Lincoln was not one of the original founders?
Just wanted to point some stuff out.

I was going to make a French-surrender-type post, but at least 3 people beat me to it.
Perhaps some kind of "selling nukes to Saddam" joke?
Nah, I'm just troll bait now.
Any bets on whether this get Troll, Flamebait, or Off Topic?
I keep seeing the term "CV". What does this term mean? It seems like it is somewhere along the lines of resume, but there is some difference.
Well, ozone is really unstable, so small local generators are not going to do squat.
Your post is good except for this-
"Part of the problem with this is that O3 is denser than air, and will, for the most part, rise high enough into the atmosphere. "

If something is important, just call the person.
How dumb are you?
