Well said.
I have met a lot of women on WoW surprisingly (and no, I am not trying to hook up sheesh)... I say surprisingly because in all my other online game experiences, there haven't been nearly as many women playing. I think that is one of the many great things about WoW is that it is accessible to so many different types of gamers. And frankly, women players are usually 100x more pleasant to raid/quest with. We use Ventrilo in our guild, and the fact that several of the women talk on vent actually keeps everyone more civil. It's great!
That's true. And, like in WoW, you have to "grind" in sports. This grinding is called practicing. As we all know (ok, this is Slashdot... as we all have read), you can't just go out there and be an awesome athlete without spending countless hours practicing. The laps, the training, the repetitive drills. Why do people do it? If you are not a professional (who are financially compensated), it must simply be for the thrill of the actual competition. So, you grind away for years only to have an hour or two, once a week, where you feel the rush of competition and victory.
Seems on par with WoW as far as "return on time invested" is concerned.

The Greatest Adventure, The Ballad of The Hobbit
From the animated movie The Hobbit
The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said.
The chances, the changes are all yours to make.
The mold of your life is in your hands to break.
The greatest adventure is there if you're bold.
Let go of the moment that life makes you hold.
To measure the meaning can make you delay;
It's time you stop thinkin' and wasting the day.
The man who's a dreamer and never takes leave
Who thinks of a world that is just make-believe
Will never know passion, will never know pain.
Who sits by the window will one day see rain.
The greatest adventure is what lies ahead.
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said.
The chances, the changes are all yours to make.

Fortunately for Gonzales, he will probably soon forget he held the position and made a mockery of the judicial system...
"...and their goal is to use Political Correctness to stop any criticism of their beliefs. It is working."
Probably impossible to verify, but it definitely seems plausible. Thank you for illuminating that for me... :)

I downloaded a NES emulator just so I could play M.U.L.E... love that game and soundtrack!
Oh if only I knew of RealDolls before I got married...
They're so lifelike!!!

And my axe!
With a lucky mutation, yes. :)
