  1. That has to be one of the most profound things I've read on these boards in a long, long time. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon

    Need a hug?

    Water tower

    That might make a nice SL... but I'm a bit of a purist... if it ain't freefallable I won't jump it. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  4. Geee... who could THAT be? I'm enjoying the game quite a bit... much to Brit's dismay, but at least I can walk away from it, unlike the MMORPGs. The baddies are a LOT faster... and you really have to manage ammo. To tell you the truth, it looks like Id went with the Half-Life formula... FPS with a plot. My fave weapon so far? Chainsaw, bar none. I cleared a level in no time with just the chainsaw and barely took any damage. That might change when I get the BFG. BTW. For those of you who have gotten to the satellite transmission room, do you have any idea as to whether the choice you make makes any difference in gameplay? Looks like no matter which one you choose, someone gets pissed. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  5. Maybe this is where we part company. If he is incapable of admitting that he fucked up, that in my mind is a serious FLAW, not an admirable trait. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  6. I may not smell bullshit but I'm calling it. Trust me gang, the ones tha act like they're the most innocent are usually the wildest. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  7. True. "Hamlet" is probably my favorite play of all time. Wonderfully dark. And actually, come to think of it, Dante's Inferno, Purgatorio & Paradisio were INCREDIBLY political. It was kind of funny to see which people of his time were stuck in which level of Hell (or purging sins in Purgatory or chillin' in Heaven). - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  8. Heh. Shows you how much I know about music pre-60s. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  9. Case-in-point... Johnny Ramone is a die-hard Republican. Whoda thunk a punk icon would be pro-Establishment? - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  10. Which I own. REALLY good punk/hardcore compilation... and I love the picture of Bush on the front covering his ears as he gets blasted by "Dissent" amplifiers. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  11. What's interesting is that she's a media icon at all.. and that folks are willing to cut her slack. What if the genders were reversed? You think people would treat him the same? - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  12. The Doors, Sabbath, Hendrix, the Dead NOT political? Better listen to the music more closely... No not every band's music has overt political overtones, but many, many 60s bands were overtly political... and vocal about it. Almost all punk is, by it's nature, political. A fair amount of Country is political (though I guess it's OK to be political if it's a right-wing diatribe). Rock (and I'm using that very generically) is anti-establishment at its core. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  13. Newsflash... modern music, starting from the 60s on, IS political. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  14. This is shaping up to be one of the best Bridge Days ever. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  15. No that's Hillary. THK does nothing for me looks-wise, but I do like her "take no shit from no one" attitude. Laura always has this sort of vacuous, ditzy look on her face that reminds me a lot of Nancy Reagan. Truth be known, my favorite First Lady hands-down was Barbara. She was intelligent, articulate, approachable and used her position to advocate good causes that everyone could agree upon (like literacy). Also note, THK is actually far more republican-leaning than you would think. Not every person married to a liberal is themselves a liberal ... look at Mary Matalin & James Carville. I STILL don't understand how that one works. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  16. Libertarians prefer bratwursts. Mine with dijon mustard & kraut. MMmmmmmmm... - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  17. So you're officially going? YEAH!!!! - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  18. Good point. You can always fall back on assumption of risk. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  19. You can get around this by incorporating. Every person who wants to jump must buy a share(s) into the corporation. You can't sue yourself. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  20. There's a plot of land for sale here in TX that a bunch of us have been interested in for some time. It has the anchors already in place... just no tower. We've been trying to find a way to get an old dismantled tower on the cheap and get it assembled for a while now. As with most things, money is the big sticking point. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  21. And let's not forget the plural possessive "y'all's" as in... "I thought those were y'all's towers". I was gonna take a cheap shot (not at you Rodney ) but I decided against it. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  22. Yep. Too bad it's in Mississippi. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  23. Try quitting drinking sometime. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
  24. The only way the Feds should be getting involved is with respect to state's rights & full faith & credit. Quite frankly, this is working the way I personally think it should work. If a state wants to be gay marriage, fine, that's their prerogative. If another wants to recognize it.. also fine. But if you have a legit marriage in one state, other states need to recognize the legality of it. You could turn this around... what if a state banned all STRAIGHT marriages and recognized only gay marriages? The same reasoning should apply. - Z "Always be yourself... unless you suck." - Joss Whedon
