What you talking 'bout Kevin? He is a very special and awesome one.

I'm excited on a number of levels...

If only I was twenty years younger, I could get shot down in flames by better looking guys than usually turn me down. Learn from my mistakes! Don't get any older! If you do, don't admit it. Happy birthday Pat! We'll keep it just between us.

The Devil You scored 53% Egocentricism, 71% Heirarchy, 51% Spiritualityand 32% Morality! You are The Devil! For you, there is no getting around the fact that there is a higher force controlling your destiny, but you feel no obligation to submit to it. You are very conscious of the conflict between what is and what should be. What should be, in your mind, is whatever works out best for you. You are mostly selfish. You believe in an ordered universe and an ordered society. The Soul is more important to you than the physical world. You do not believe there is justice. You SHOULD: Focus on the most socially acceptable of your many grievances against the world- perhaps you can pursue your own ends and accidentally do some good in the process. That will also bring you the admiration and following of others, which you will likely enjoy. You would be a powerful activist, but only for a cause that directly impacts you. Pursue higher education and consider studying philosophy. Learn to control your desires not by denial, but by aggressively satisfying the harmless ones. You should NOT: Get involved in any kind of loose-knit or factionalized group: you will inevitably be the spark in the powderkeg- your ruthless efficiency will inspire those who share your goals, but horrify those who do not. Remain long in the service of someone you disagree with- you must cross your bridges quickly in order to resist the temptation to burn them. Your life will be: Controversial. Your life may be: Inspirational. Your life will not be: Peaceful. Your opposite is: The Hero. Your companion is: The Counselor. Much like the "real" devil in Christian lore, you probably wouldn't create so many problems if the one you love would just listen to you and stroke your ego a bit.

I got 42. wtf?

Few people have ever had freedom handed to them and were told go have fun. One way or another, you have to fight for it. This is an extreme example of our fight but one that makes me proud. Thanks Eric!

I suppose as a writer, this is why I like B5 best. When you look at some of the trek series as a story arc, a lot of the episodes have major continuity issues. This is something that I try hard to avoid in my own writing. It sucks to be reading (or watching) something and have a character die and then be resurrected in chapter 30 without devine intervention or an explanation.

I like Babylon 5 better. The aliens were more than people with butts on their heads nor did the humans have a politically correct stick up their ass.

To all of our members taking finals in the next couple of weeks, study hard and good luck! Here are some answers for last years tests (not necessarily the right answers): Ancient Egypt was inhabited by mummies and they all wrote in hydraulics. They lived in the Sarah Dessert and travelled by Camelot. The climate of the Sarah is such that the inhabitants have to live elsewhere. The Greeks were a highly sculptured people, and without them we wouldn't have history. The Greeks also had myths. A myth is a female moth Actually, Homer was not written by Homer, but by another man of that name. Socrates was a famous Greek teacher who went around giving people advice. They killed him. Socrates died from an overdose of wedlock. After his death, his career suffered a dramatic decline. In the Olympic games, Greeks ran races, jumped, hurled the biscuits, and threw the java. Julius Caesar extinguished himself on the battlefields of Gaul. The Ides of March murdered him because they thought he was going to be made king. Dying, he gasped out: "Tee hee, Brutus." Joan of Arc was burn to a steak and was canonised by Bernard Shaw. Finally, Magna Carta provided that no man should be hanged twice for the same offence. In midevil times most people were alliterate. The greatest writer of the futile ages was Chaucer, who wrote many poems and verses and also wrote literature. Another story was William Tell, who shot an arrow through an apple while standing on his son's head. It was an age of great inventions and discoveries. Gutenberg invented removable type and the Bible. Another important invention was the circulation of the blood. Sir Walter Raleigh is a historical figure because he invented cigarettes and started smoking Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling for him. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died of this. During the Renaissance, history began. Christopher Columbus was a great navigator who discovered America whilst cursing about the Atlantic. His ships were called the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Fe. The sun never set on the British Empire because the British Empire is in the East and the sun sets in the West. My personal favourite paper to mark, was completely empty apart from one sentence. " Jesus, Please Help Me." # When you breath, you inspire. When you don't breath, you expire. # The pistol of a flower is its only protection against insects. A fossil is an extinct animal. The older it is, the more extinct it is. When you smell an odorless gas, it is probably carbon monoxide. For head colds, use an agonizer to spray the nose until it drops into your throat. The moon is a planet just like Earth, only deader. Artificial insemination is what the farmer does to the cow instead of the bull. Dew is formed on leaves when sun shines down on them and makes them perspire. To collect fumes of sulfur, hold a deacon over a flame in a test tube. Equator: A managerie lion running around Earth through Africa. To remove dust from your eye, pull the eye down over the nose. Momentum. What you give a person when they are going away. Nitrogen is not found in Ireland, because it is not found in a free state. Magnet: Something you can find crawling over a dead cat. H20 is hot water. CO2 is cold water. Rhubarb: A kind of celery gone bloodshot. Vacuum: A large, empty space where the pope lives. Respiration is composed of inspiration and then expectoration. For a nosebleed: Put the nose lower than the body until the heart stops. To prevent contraception use a condominium. Blood flows down one leg and up the other.

I started Twilight without an outline. By chapter 11, everything was outlined. The complexity of the plot, continuity, characters and... just how BIG the story is forced a degree of organization higher than anything that I've attempted before.

I braved plague zombies and saw Wolverine Origins last night. I wasn't that excited by it but it did a lot to explain Wolverine's shadowy past, amnesia and blood rivalry with Sabertooth.

Zombies!? Ach!

Dom- As long as you are not a politician, selling insurance or used cars, I doubt you are evil. Working 6 days a week sounds like it has you frazzled. Hope you feel better soon. James

I had a cat that liked to play with lighters (no, he didn't strike them) He would have fun batting them around on my hardwood floors making a horrible racket in the middle of the night. I would get up and take them away from him out of self-defense. He took to hiding his toys so I couldn't find them. When I moved from that old house I found a nest under the couch with a dozen lighters, pencils, and other things he used to play with.

It's the act of creation that makes us more than monkeys with complex neurosis. I get a rush out of creation whether I put a computer together from parts, dig, prepare and plant a new flower bed or write a poem. In all those cases you have added something that came from your mind and imagination to the sum total of the universe and that is something very special. Most people do not create but consume. When they are gone, they leave nothing of themselves. When a creative person is gone, he has left his thumbprint on eternity.

I don't know but if I'm good I go to Valhalla.

Agreed: no panic until we have zombies.

Um-mm, barbecue!

Comsie- you are one of the masters of the genre and you rock! Happy Birthday. Oh and if the birthday part is a sore spot, we'll keep it just between us.

Here's how it works: I'll bet George Bush is a hoot drunk! If he's this goofy sober, he has to be a real scream with a buzz. I'll bet O'bama drinks gin & juice after work. With the economy like it is and the swine flu, he's too calm not too. Now, Yew try it.

come to think of it it might have been- whoa, hot redhead! It sure sounds like me.

I don't know for sure but I'm pretty sure it was "boner".

I like big cats. We think alike. We both like to eat, sleep. f**k and fight but I must admit to some favorites on that list. :mace:
