You don't put nails in a bomb unless you intend on hurting people. www.FourWheelerHB.com

No I didn't miss that. I'm just not convinced the need is there. They're talking about spending a lot of money a project we don't necessarily need during a time when our state may need a federal bail out. www.FourWheelerHB.com

The colonists were in fact terrorists of their day. However they did not target innocents to get their message across. The Weather Underground did. www.FourWheelerHB.com

Ayers never actually killed anyone. As I recall, none of the bombs planted by Ayers even injured anyone. I think the bomb at the Pentagon was about 2 pounds of explosives and broke a water pipe? True, his wife/girlfriend did blow herself up trying to make one that would, but . . . that wasn't Ayers. The Weather Underground's policy prior to that little accident in Greenwich Village was innocent casualties are acceptable. It wasn't until the nailbomb, they were going to set off at an Army Officers' Ball, accidently detonated in their house did they decide to start calling in bomb threats to minimize the chances of a casualty. Fortunately for him, because he was lucky enough not to kill anyone, the statute of limitations (5 years) ran out before he CONFESSED. www.FourWheelerHB.com

So you can visit all the cool dropzones we have up here perhaps? That actually brings up a concern I had. If there are stops in Orange County, LA, Santa Barbara, Sacremento, San Jose, etc.... a 350 mph train will still take forever. Now a bullet train from LA/OC to Vegas? Now we're talking. www.FourWheelerHB.com

I'm only into it a couple hours but here is my initial impression. Online is two player coop. You can join your friends game to help them out but you must play as a henchman. Your stats, xp, and gold come with you but items and avatar do not. Unfortunately exp and gold is split between main player and 2nd player. Also the henchmen is essentially tethered to the main player and only has a range of 3/4s of the screen. Pretty lame for 2008. I could be very wrong about this but it seems there are only 8 spells. None of which boost your player's abilities. There isn't a mana system so spells are unlimited however to you have to boost power of the spell by holding the button longer prior to actually casting the spell which leaves your player vulnerable. As primarily a magic user in RPGs I find this to be highly disappointing but again I could be wrong. The graphics are great on a LCD tv and voice acting is fine. Gameplay largely emphasizes social relationships with the ability to perform tricks to gain favor with NPCs. Can't aford that sword? Do some muscle flexes, dance, or fart to gain favor with the merchant and possibly make the sword more affordable. Careful when farting as you can possibly crap your pants. Seriously. You also have the ability to get married, have a kid, and catch an std. Thankfully the gamemakers included a pack of condoms which you can buy at the general store. Overall I'm not disapointed and am happy I purchased it. Fallout 3 next week! www.FourWheelerHB.com

It won't be this low for that long. In fact I'm predicting at least $7 maybe $8 per gallon next summer in SoCal. www.FourWheelerHB.com

I have no idea what you are talking about. www.FourWheelerHB.com

That's fucking awesome! www.FourWheelerHB.com

PErhaps I missed the reasoning somewhere but why do we need a high speed train from San Diego to San Francisco? www.FourWheelerHB.com

livendive understood I was being sarcastic but since you brought it up..... I'm sure you only see it as a coincidence but I find it amusingly interesting Miss Harvard Law Grad didn't reach her current earning potential until hubby was elected US Senator. www.FourWheelerHB.com

Why should she? If she wanted the $350k/year wardrobe, she should have focused a bit more on her education, like Mrs Obama did. Blues, Dave Or marry a potential senator who will earmark 4 times the amount of the raise to the company that gave it to her. Hmmmm. Forget about that did we? Or marry a secessionist and win a beauty pageant and a few popularity contests to attract the attention of the Republican candidate for President so his campaign can buy it. Blues, Dave www.FourWheelerHB.com

Utilizing animal products is necessary. Abusing the animals in the process for the sake of a dollar is not. Not caring about the treatment of animals on animal farm makes you part of the problem...not me. www.FourWheelerHB.com

What happened to prop 12? www.FourWheelerHB.com

CA laws would be much more acceptable than IL laws. Essentially it would be a renewal of the '94 Assault Rifle ban, and the prohibition of new regular capacity mags. However, the national scene is not the same as the state he's from, which is very hostile to gun ownership. He'll make little traction in DC on the subject, and given the challenge of reelection in 2012 (for either candidate if they win), I'd be surprised if he wanted any part of the subject. Yep the 94 Assault Weapon Ban cost the democrats quite a bit and was a major reason the republicans gained majority. Hopefully Obama is smart enough to have learned that lesson but I have my doubts. www.FourWheelerHB.com

Please explain what you mean by this because it sounds like you disagree with the Heller decision and that would be crazy in light of a very recent thread I sponsored. www.FourWheelerHB.com

During my seperation screening the doc looks at my chart after the corpman took my vitals and ekg readings.

Thanks! But the girls are going to stay private. Yeah, dude! Don't be crass! Now where's the pie? I believe I ordered my graduate covered in pie. You're right! (good idea btw) LuckyMcSwervy we absolutely, unequivocally DO NOT want you to post a pic of your boobies. www.FourWheelerHB.com
