Out of the Blue

Last year I recall a couple of occasions where rain storms failed to put a dent in the snow piles, but yesterday was the opposite... one good day of rain eliminated about every flake that had previously accumulated.

Thanks to those with advice on hosting a network game behind NAT... I haven't gotten to try this out yet, but it's reassuring to know that there's a method to properly tunnel through to my machine.

That New Zealand accidental prohibition story of the day from yesterday was actually from a couple of years ago, so please just consider that the nostalgia link of the day.

I could like this RX-7, it looks like a mini Viper. Paint it a solid color - black, white, red, or silver, those are the only acceptable colors for a sports car in my book. Take off the back wing. Get some decent wheels, maybe a nice five spoke design.

Don't forget the best part. Rotary engine!

Hehe. Finally took the grammar test. 8/10. I don't really know that many rules of grammar, but I generally find that if it sounds correct, it probably is

There was only one catch and that was Catch-22

q[I'm a post-secondary student who regularly gets A's on essays/term papers and is consistently complimented on my writing abilities.]

What the fuck is a post secondary student. I'm a grad student, I used to be an undergrad, before that I was in high school. Where exactly does post secondary fall. I'm guessing that elementary is primary school, junior high is secondary, and post secondary is a high school student that feels more important that he is, but I'm more than comfortable admitting I have no clue. BTW, 9/10 and I don't buy the whole subjunctive mood argument.

Could be that your instructors don't grade based on grammar. If you got 5/10 on that test, you probably have lots of little grammar mistakes that people "in the know" would find distracting. An interesting thing about grammar is that if you take the time to learn 5% of the rules, you'll fix 90% of the errors you make. Or who knows, maybe the test is just crap.

Ya know, come to think of it, so was the media of the day. Read the page, it talks about being released two years ago as well; Before the first LotR move came out.

Guess yesterday was just nostalgia all around.

You remember that time where you posted those links that where two years old? Ahhhh the good ole' days!

it's grand to see you all have something of point to post (or so you think)..
realy it's all a bunch of rubish from a drove of clicking idiots that think they have something of value to post.
you.. the one with no true meaning of life.. you need to get out from behind a keybord and see what the world is about... it's a grand day.. voice what you feel.. don't type what you think and maybe you will have something of meaning to relate to.................................... bloddy fools

Thanks for the tips Fang, thou thats what Fox's agenda has seemed to be when I have seen it sensationalism, inflammatory, false and with malicous intent.
I perfer real dialouge about issues not phony agenda orenitned material which serves to push people apart. I dont give a shit about any political party. Its an easy test with me does it make the world a beter place for most everyone or does it make an issue serving indivduals or selfperpuating agendas.

Yea, I probably did, but I'm saving it for New Year's, so fuck off.

Man, you're on a roll today...


Man. Is it just me... or is our generation (I'm talking to the younger crowd here) seriously messed up? I sometimes fear what is going to happen when my generation gets older and has to run a country.

To paraphrase the song:
I believe the children are our future.
I believe we're f$#*ed.

I'm a hippy, aren't I?

No not at all, as I completely agree. It is a good thing to not use motorized transportation if you do not have to! (But it is REALLY damn convenient when you want to bring home a couple of cases of beer though!). As I said, I walk when/if I can, and will continue to increase that amount as my knee gets better and better, but I definitely do not stink of pachouli!


I'm sure Volkswagen will still be in business

Volks are prime ricing cars right now man! Get in while the getting is good!

I don't necessarily mind people driving cars (especially cool ones like Enahs' :)) but what I do mind are the people that buy massive freakin' SUVs for their family of four or drive a pickup truck that gets 12 MPG to work every day.

I understand that you cannot always walk. It's reality. Life in the modern world. So at some point I will have to buy a car. When that time comes, I'm sure Volkswagen will still be in business
