Phantom

I have to say a fear of flying and fear of closed spaces are mine.

So you mean your halo is more like horns Edited: Ok to get Treb's favorite pic of me out there... here it is: be kind... i'm a little self-conscious about this one...

Definitely can't wait Comsie! Looking forward to it!

Benji take care while your gone We'll definitely be waiting for your return

*Smack Robbie* I know what your thinking... bad Robbie! Also to add: Nice pic guys! and welcome to GA

Do it face to face, its more respectful and (imo) honest then over the phone or through im. When someone tells me something important like coming out or something to that effect over the phone, I feel like they're too cowardly to do it face to face (but then again I can be a stick in the mud because I like to see the expression in peoples faces to see the emotion behind it) Or you can do what you feel is best, after all she is your sister and you know her better then anyone Eric

Obviously you didn't see my hooded one before i had the penguin... inside the hood was moving binary

I actually started to read some of the stuff at AwsomeDude lately, but I do have to say I prefer GA to them any day lol

I got a new song that kinda haunts me right now: All around me are familiar faces Worn out places, worn out faces Bright and early for their daily races Going nowhere, going nowhere Their tears are filling up their glasses No expression, no expression Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow No tomorrow, no tomorrow And I find it kinda funny I find it kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you I find it hard to take When people run in circles It's a very, very mad world mad world Children waiting for the day they feel good Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday Made to feel the way that every child should Sit and listen, sit and listen Went to school and I was very nervous No one knew me, no one knew me Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson Look right through me, look right through me And I find it kinda funny I find it kinda sad The dreams in which I'm dying Are the best I've ever had I find it hard to tell you I find it hard to take When people run in circles It's a very, very mad world ... mad world Enlarging your world Mad world Mad World - Gary Jules

A belated congrats to you 17 years together may you have another 17 more and 17 after that

happy b-day! may it be filled with Transylvania goodness and lots of time warps

I have two tickets, one for doing an illegal u-turn on a street (a side street nonetheless) and parking in a handicapped spot (it wasnt marked clearly and I took pictures trying to fight it but still lost) Other then that... I was pulled over for speeding twice (and got off both once because the cop knew me, the other because the cop ended up seeing me in my Movie theatre uniform and got some passes off of me lol)

And here I was blaming it on the fact taht I hate sleeping... oh well.. at least now I know im a mutant

Robbie, I think that she knows because all sisters do. Mine who is completely oblivious to thing called me out on it one day when she came into my room while I was doin some homework (this was back in HS mind you) and said, not asked, you're gay right? I was dumbfounded because I didn't act gay (I acted straight pretty well unless I felt comfortable around people, but thats another subject all together), or pretty much do anything gay that she knew of (and she was in 6th grade) yet she knew and called me on it. So trust us when we say, your sister probably knows, because deep down inside all parents/siblings/extended relatives/friends know it's just a matter of admiting it to themselves. And besides, she'll probably be cool about it (she didn't flip when she got the QAF and you told her you were in GSA). In any case we're all here for ya rooting you on Eric

That's a good idea, though I do have to warn Windows users that in my experience it gets a little bit picky when it's dual booting with another OS. If you are to go that route install windows first then the Linux OS, because if you don't Windows will make sure its the only OS that boots. On another note, should you choose to dual boot, pay attention to the boot options. By default, linux sets itself as the default OS to boot to with 10 seconds to choose from, IMO I used to make sure I had at least 30 seconds to choose and had windows as the default (because at the time, windows was the only OS i could use that would connect to the internet). Another things is don't fret when it comes to wireless. Take a look at the forums if you run into any problems setting up your card. I just had this happen to me when I installed openSUSE 11.0. All it took was looking at the forums, and seeing that my wireless card was installed under the wrong drivers. Oops. :wacko: Also if you're in a situation like me, make sure that to solve a driver problem like that, that you do have a connection to the internet so you can download the right packet to rectify the situation. Well, I said enough, off to watch some more Degrassi

Only thing about those is that if I had them, I'd most likely loose them cus they're so small. At least with my brick of a sidekick, I can know where it is and if its missing from the size and weight of it lol... Also to add, we discussed the eee1000 in chat, and i'm not sure if you were there, but I looked it up and I don't think it's wroth the price they're asking for anyway. It hasen't bothered my eyes and i'm used to looking at screens of 1600x1024 reason for edit: forgot to reply to Drewbie's question

Mandriva contains both a lot of opensource and proprietary software and drivers. When I was trying to find a linux distro for my laptop, the only one that worked for my wireless card was Mandriva. So if you're worried about driver support, try them. Also when trying linux best thing to use is a Live CD, it runs completely off your CD drive without making any changes to your computer as well. Me i'm a big supporter of open source, even though i do regretably have to use microwaste on my desktop

I used to frequent Nifty a lot before coming to GA and found my way here through DomLuka, but now that I found this wonderful place... i've considered it a second home. I love the people on here, the way its run and it seems to me like one big happy dysfunctional family. Also I didn't vote in the poll mainly for the reason that I haven't been to any other sites besides nifty which I never go anymore. ....... I'm a GA addict

I really don't have a preference when it comes to dating, but after thinking about it and coming across this thread, ive dated mainly hispancs and whites. But then again, there is one guy that I like around here and he's cute and a milano (black and white mixed together incase you don't know the term) and his eyes are amazingly deep and has a great personality

BTW... GPS system talk a bit off <off topic> lol But I do remember apple having a eBook reader, and I think my friend mentioned something with eBooks on her iPhone Also as much as I like technology, I took the eBook reader for a spin the other day when I was at Borders, and all I have to say is give me paperback anyday (with the exception of GA when I'm reading it on my phone lol... I love my Sidekick )

CJ, I cried, I laughed, I cursed your use of Cliffies, and Shadowgods evilness used at certain points, but I loved this series. I'm glad that I got to read it and see that Also, please don't make anymore evil eric's (I gotta reputation to protect ) lol Amazing job and looking forward to your next series

I remember having my zone alarm once, and not only did it never work (I had to manually configure it multiple times), but I had my system slow down about 12%. I love my systems fast and I hate having to configure things multiple times, so ZoneAlarm, it's a no no... on hand I would recomend McAfee and OneCare Live (never Norton, it failed me once and I winever forgive it). In other words... Boooo Zone Alarm!!!!!!!!!!

So far it seems i'm the only one in my family that's gay... though I do wonder about my uncle (he's in his late 30's and has never had a girlfriend that me or my dad know of...)

I never liked zone alarm, and I don't like what one of the solutions to the problems was.... Uninstalling a update for Windows? All my computer geek in me says nooooo to that. Thankfully I use Mandriva for most of my internet needs

Kevin, I do have to say you
