Whigs and Tories?
Whigs and Tories were the original parties in America in it's early years. Neither exist in any way shape or form today. The whigs became the Democratic Party. The Republican Party was formed in the 1850's as the anti-Slavery Party. And Conservatism and Liberalism have nothing to do with Parties as they can change affiliation quite often.

21 November 2006 - HUNTER SKILL!
Yeah the stats on the enchanted crossbows are great too, but they are slow, and the ammo is hard as hell to get. Looks like these are going to be the same way. Salamander ammo is easy. All you need is 15 swamp tar and one herb of choice.

Level 69 will be worth it just for the black salamander. The stats on that thing are godly.

Would you trade your PS3 for a lifetiem of Tacos?
Change it to Taco Bueno chicken quesadillas and you have a deal. Oh man, I am so having one for dinner tomorrow night.

Cinema Dilemna
That's odd, most theatres check I.D.'s at the ticket booth. I don't have to worry, since I use my University ID to get a discount in the first place, so my age is pretty established.

Zelda: Twilight Princess
Pfft, Princess Zelda is in no way comparable to Peach. Especially considering she is one of the most lethal people in the world. Ganon is in the game, and from what I hear it is a shock!

Graduation Rings! Best part of graduating
I will be getting my 600 US University Ring within two weeks. Solid gold, with 24 diamonds surrounding the school logo. Mine looks just like these, except it has the diamonds surrounding the "Double-T" logo.

New weapons?
J-Mods can spawn any item in the game, give themselves any level, teleport anywhere, change their appearance at whim, and are completely devoid of the laws of nature we commoners must follow.

Favorite Girl Scout Cookie?
Tag-a-longs all the way. I can't even look at those things.

Banned for selling lobbies?
I highly doubt they banned you for that. You can name whatever price you want, as long as you take what both parties agree on, there is nothing wrong. Please post the ban message or some proof as to why you were banned?

New weapons?
It indeed is the rage mace from Tolna's fissure. J-Mods never use real weapons! Duh! :P

��â�š���£25 per day to drive an SUV in London
80% of all vehicles in the US are not SUV's...that's way off. Wish I had a time to find a real number. There is a majority of sedans and compacts. And since i have actually been in a sedan that has been hit by a Suburban, let me say this: My car had the front end completely blown off. I was trapped in the car for 25 minutes (with no injuries, thank God). The woman was yelling at me, because she had bought the SUV 1 hour earlier for the looks, and I had apparently dented the fender by being in the path of her illegal turn.

��â�š���£25 per day to drive an SUV in London
Your dad uses a truck for the right reason. But did you ever think that while you may be safe in the SUV, what happens to the car that you hit?

��â�š���£25 per day to drive an SUV in London
Ah, I thought maybe the Euro SUV's from Land Rover, Mercedes, BMW, Volkswagon, etc would be mentioned. Even by American standards those things are huge.

��â�š���£25 per day to drive an SUV in London
They shouldn't be in a city like London anyways. They barely fit on American roads, how can they fit in those tiny old roads?! Now, if they could only do the same thing here in the States. I hate first of all, having giant SUV headlights at eye level in my Sedan, which makes night driving a pain. Also, getting nearly rammed by a soccer mom every two seconds, etc.

dead bodies
I would like a system where when you die, the killer has to click on your remains to pick up the items. After they click, all the items fall to the ground as normal, and your body dissapears.

Global Warming
Bluetear, there are bacteria in the digestive tracts that convert nutrients into CO2 as a result of their own digestion. Plus, I watched the Fart episode of Mythbusters. CO2 is the dominant gas. Nitrogen and Methane make up the other major portions, and there are even more gases found in trace amounts. And if the "it happens all the time" comment was directed towards me, the earth is constantly heating and cooling over time. In the grand scheme of things, this is fairly common in the billions of years of Earth's existance. Plus, I still don't get why soil defrosting itself would cause dangerous amounts of Methane OR Carbon Dioxide anyways? The only thing melting would be the water, which would enrich the soil underneath it. For the last time, Tundra is nothing but permafrost, which is soil that is perpetually frozen year round. It even has several inches to feet of soil on top of it. The reason it is inhospitable is that plants will die when their roots come into contact with the permafrost, they freeze to death.

Then again, cow's fart methane, not CO2. You know, methane, one of the primary components of natural gas? While true, the majority of "flatus" is made up of CO2. If humans farted pure methane, we would not have to dig for oil. :P In one cubic cm of "fart", there is: 8% methane 5% other gases 87% CO2

Global Warming
... could've sworn one of the more interesting things about the Siberian tundra was all the tons and tons of, as you so eloquently put it, "cow farts" frozen into it. That would, in the event of such a massive defreeze, move into the atmosphere. Now wouldn't that be, if you'll pardon the pun, hot? How many cows live in a barren land? Very few animals and people live in Tundra. The "cow farts" are released in more populated areas and more moderately temperate zones where large herds of animals are found. There isn't much CO2 frozen in Tundra...just dirt.

You know, it would actually be worth the price if it looked like that.

Global Warming
That kind of heat would take hundreds of years. We would end up losing more money on the electric bills. Even if the caps melted (in 500,000 years pfft) the human race would not go out. We would have to adapt, but we would survive.

Global Warming
That was 100% serious presented in a whimsical manner. Yes, there is a hole in the ozone. Been there for a while, started from volcanic gases and cow farts (literally). Billions of tons of ice can not melt completely in 100 years, much less 9. Tundra is frozen soil. If you melted it, all would remain is extremely fertile soil. Better?
-
Global Warming
What are you smoking? The hole's been there for thousands of years, and as I said before the only thing we have done to it is introduce CFC molecules which are now banned. In fact, the Ozone Hole has returned to pre-CFC sizes. Where the heck you get 9 years for billions of tons of ice to melt is completely beyond me. Ice Tundra? If the Tundra of the Earth melt, it would be GOOD! Millions of square miles of previously inhospitable earth would be opened up for farming on incredibly fertile soil! Heck, if the US, Canada and Russia worked together, we could grow enough wheat to feed the entire world!

Do you give money to the homeless?
I went to Denver for a week to help out with various projects, including working nights at meal lines. I have to admit, Turkey Gravy is good :P. But the thing is, those people are not grateful. Some of them even consider it a game! It's sad, and I hope they can finally get out of their rut...whether they want to or not.

Lawrencekill, try thousands of years after the flood at 0 degrees Farenheit. Salt water of that immense density would resist flooding for hundreds of years, and to make a solid layer would take thousands.
