Uhhhh....... I think you may have typed this out wrong...

Maybe if you guys had actually PRAYED, she wouldn't have died. Sheesh...

Seconded! And not just because I pulled out of it. It's also a really boring subject.

Why would I hurt you for informing me about 1 how I actually watch? I think that's awesome! I mean with this last season they introed the Justice League's starting up. Sweet. I've gotta see that ep where she shows up. :kitty:

Oh, come on man. You don't use a spoiler box, beccause that just taunts everyone and they read it weather they want to or not.(Or at least me, anyways...)

Yes. It's also mean not to write any wonderful pieces of literature in a long time! 😛

...Did I say wonderful pieces of literature?

😃

Pineconn 20 Jun 2007, 01:43

I'm as subtle as a flying mallet, mostly.

So... we should discuss something of very little importance. Any ideas?

You remember the insanely hard game I mentioned my friend was working on?

I'm now his official game-making partner. IE, I can make massive desicions, mess with the difficulty, ETC!

I just spent 2 hours going over the finer points of the story with him on monday. And It's safe to say that it WILL be awesome.

I shall post a link when the first official demo is done.

and the difficulty has been reduced a bit. Plus, a difficulty setting has been inplemented, so there shouldn't be much of a problem.

and as to my own game...progress is slow...I have summer school to worry about, and My friend is VERY demanding when it comes to the stuff he wants me to help him with. >_> that, and I just got a DS flash card a short while ago. It's a major distraction.

But fear not, I shall get my second and long overdue demo out sometime (hopefully soon), and it will have enough extra features to justify the long wait

Thanks, Majoras_Wrath, greatly appreciated. Anyone ever have to deal with someone who basically just utterly hates their life but absolutely refuses to do anything to change their situation? I swear, my housemate is going to drive me absolutely, utterly insane if she doesn't quit bitching about things that she could change if she tried.

That and I've still got a bag of fireworks that I need to put to good use.

Only on AGN. 😊

Let's talk about Vista for a second. Let's say I want to play an old version of Age of Empires or Warcraft. You'd think that you could do it if you ran it in compatibility mode, but guess what . . .

Prrkitty 25 Jun 2007, 18:06

I play Age of Empires III under Vista and it works just fine. Matter of fact I play it in a windowed mode so I can still talk in Trillian/IM as well.

WOW... this thread is already on it's 15th page... who'd 'a thunk?

So, I burned my left arm pretty bad last friday. I was taking CPR/First Aid re-training for work (my certification expired in march), and I went out to open up my car while everyone else was taking a smoke break. I have no A/C, so it gets hot in there after it sits in the sun for a while. I ended up leaving my keys on the seat and locking my doors. I also ended up leaving my sun roof open.

After CPR was over and we took a break for lunch, I found myself quite locked out. And after attempting to MacGuyver my way into my car using some tree branches, a shoelace, and my Leatherman, a guy showed up with a bent coat hanger. All I had to do was stick in it my sun roof, snag the keys, and... OUCH! Did I forget to mention that cars get hot outside as well as inside?

Long story short, I burned a rather long stretch of upper left arm (bottom-inside) that has mostly become uninflamed, except for a large, almost quarter-sized circle of pain. As soon as I had my keys, the first thing I did was treat myself to lunch at a nice local chinese buffet. Holding my ice water against my arm hurt until it felt good. The second thing I did was buy a can of burn spray that initially hurt quite a lot and also cost more than lunch.

On the plus side of it all, I had a great example of a first degree burn for First Aid class.

I wanted to play the old versions and it won't work at all. I figured that Microsoft would have done something to fix that already . . . meh. I'll keep trying.

XD Way to look at the bright side of things DSG! But I'm sorry to hear about the burn. I hope it gets better soon.

On Sunday, I got up at 11, worked out for the first time in a few months, trimmed my chest hair, and ate a full mexican meal around 2:30. I then proceeded to work from 3 pm to 7:30 am due to the night shift not showing or calling. This wouldn't be AS bad if I hadn't done all of that crap before. It blew major balls. Then I slept from 8 to 4 and I'm heading back in in a few minutes, until 11 OR I may do the first half of the night shift again if he doesn't show up. I work at 9 in the mornign teaching at a camp until 5, then I go teach at a high school from 6-8. Apparently Oklahoma is also under some kind of monsoon watch, because it rains at least once a day here. I feel like I'm in Seattle (Jennifer you didn't need to move so far away.) This also would not be a big deal aside from the fact that it rains in my room due to the cieling leaking. The corner of the room next to mine caved in and there are now a swarm of mosquitoes hovering around the debris.
On the plus side of things, I'm getting in shape, looking better and getting a lot of hours.

I'm going to go do another set and then go to work.
Peace.

Living in Georgia during the summer, hot cars are a problem. I keep a pair of leather gloves in my car so I can get in and start driving immediately without waiting for anything to cool down.
