  1. Scottie on Houston Police Chief Wants Cameras in Homes · · Score: 3, Funny

    Scottie on Star Trek invented this. "I canno dew it, Cap'n! I need more time!" Invariably, he would always deliver. Made him look like an engineering GOD.

  2. Re:What sort of "original" game do you propose? on Ask Sid Meier · · Score: 1
    just adding attack high, medium, low, and block and making combos work would make the whole thing an order of magnitude more fun... I'd like to see a strategic naval combat game with pseudo-random wind, current, and storm effects.
    Both of those elements are somewhat present in Sid Meier's Pirates! game that was re-released last year (originally in the 80's). It's one hella-fun game. Check it out.
  3. This might have been me on DVD-Watching Driver Charged with Murder · · Score: 1, Troll

    I installed a computer in my car about a year ago with a touchscreen interface, gps navigation, DVD, etc...

    Well last week, I'm following a friend to his home. Roads are empty and I know where my friend and I are going. I start messing around with the mp3 player and I'm not paying attention to the road.

    He decides to make a turn I'm not expecting and take a different route. I smashed right into him at about 30mph. I didn't even know I was going to hit him until a split second before I hit him.

    Fortunately, we weren't hurt, but I caused about $5000 in damages to our cars.

    Well, I learned my lesson. The computer is coming out after the repairs are complete. There is no need for this luxury while operating a vehicle.
