I found an old French WWII rifle on E-bay. It sounded like it was in pretty good condition. The description read "Never used, dropped once".

JROTC is highschool military training. It stands for "Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps" but we do pretty much standard basic training things. Im taking Army JROTC so we do army things. We wear the army "greens" every thursday, perform drill and ceremony and we march. On fridays we do PT (physical training) and we study the chain of command of the US and things related to the military mate your just going to be brainwashed into stupid patriotism and thinking that all terrorists are evil (they probaly are as evil as fair proportion of the army) and that middle eastern countries will perform countless terroist attacks if wwe don't police them. i think that young military training is a complete joke, it has good intentions but theres evil behind the intentions, its obviously going to side you towards joining the army. the army is evil, not at individual levels (although some are) but what the group does. Ha, this is hilarious. I almost laughed after I realized you were serious. Not once in the years I've been in this program has anything at all been said about the Middle East from any negative perspective, what it's been about is on the political/economic side, which if anything gave us an anti-war perspective. As for your second statement, they make it a point not to try to get you into the service. While it's true that every so often a recruiter will come talk to us about the benefits, it'sreally more of just the information than a "come over here guys, it;s awesome!!!" thing. And while it's true that yea, a lot of the people in ROTC will join the military, many are in the program because of that, not as a side effect. In fact, last year's Battalion Commander isn't going in at all; I think he's going to law school. I find your "brainwashing" statement amusing in that someone probably instilled that idea in you.

I had to use this last yeari my Astronomy course. It's pretty cool, I liked it a lot. I might download it again for myself.

I tried pulling up the thumbstick, doesn't really work. I've gotten used to it, though, i can compensate. As for the game as a whole, I think Yahztee summed it up pretty well despite talking about the expansion: all it really is is a series of dark corridors on the way to the next 1 minute fire fight, repeat. Every so often it will remember it's trying to be a horror game and the lights will flicker or a ghost will appear for a second or two, but those moments are far between so far. It also misses several scare chances that games like Bioshock would have been all over like rabid wolverines to my underpants, such as navigating a narrow hall to a medkit or health increase, and then turning around and finding a ghost right in your face screaming or something. In fact, Bioshock does just that, but for whatever reason F.E.A.R. just lets them go. But when it really gets into sheer balls-to-the-wall mind [bleep]ery, it's pretty good. The most memorable sequence was after I jumped down a shaft into some water and I was suddenly in a hallway waist deep in blood with the little girl ghost on the opposite side behind some double doors. I have to wade down there, when suddenly I'm back where I was and a skeleton suddenly leaps out of the water at me. But there's only been about 2 or 3 of these moments that I've encountered so far. Which is fine, though, the sheer thought that one of these could happen any second is enough to keep me on edge. So while it's a fun game, and it's well worth the $16 I payed for it, I can't help but feel it missed the mark a bit.

Who said he was talking about steam... theres the Orange box on Consoles you know. But the Orange Box is the Orange Box, PC or console. The only differences I think are mods and such.

Oh, he was there. For free kills. :D

I actually got only 2 hours of sleep before waking up. It's especially weird since on normal days I wake up a few hours later than that.

That's hilarious, the way you flailed there :lol:

Yea, sure. The more the merrier. I also got another killtrocity with a sword earlier, infectin game. FTW.

What, you mean right now? Sure, i guess, got nothing better.

So all protagonists have to be guys? What? No, not at all, in fact I don't think a male protagonist could work for this game.

I think the story has something to do with running messages between rebel strongholds or something. Nonetheless, I've been sort of looking forward to it, but the action, movement, etc. in that trailer seemed to be slower than one would think given the nature of the game. I also can't say I'm loving the whole "japanese girl as the protagonist". Reminds me of JRPGs I guess.

Like the naked guy! And I also found a vid to get to some place on Halo, a room that endlessly spawn either Elites or Flood, I forget, and you can just keep killing them. So when we going to do this? Edit: ha, just got out of the map on Sierra 117 with 2 other guys. It's pretty awesome, there's this big pit and "the walkway to heaven", basically an invisible floor and your screen just totally [bleep]s out graphically, it's pretty cool. We need to do that. I've done the same thing on Floodgate, but it's less awesome.

Today I purchased F.E.A.R. and so far it's pretty good. Controls: good, graphics: decent, atmosphere: pant-wetting. The only problem is that when I walk, even after I've stopped pushing on the thumbstick my character continues to move forward, and this is not an especially good quality to have in any game, much less an FPS, and has sent me multiple times running gleefully into a room full of baddies waiting to make me their new pincushion for bullets and completely throwing off any surprise I might have had.

Granted, it's a 1000 lb bomb under your bed. Say goodnight, Gracie. I wish for a megameter.

Oh totally sure. We might even be able to get to the secret Cortana terminal, if I look it up. Never been to that one.

Actually, Homer had the 1000th post. You just had the 1000th reply.

I think they did something like that on "Hey, Arnold!". They turned it into a card house or something. Around here, pumpkins are only stolen at halloween, and then promptly smashed. But then again, we don't exactly have 450 lb pumpkins growing in our backyards.

Granted. But it's permanent and caused by some hunks of metal shredding through your cerebrum. I wish for sophisticated language.

With religions much apart from their own, no less.

What did you have in mind to do? Just some co-op levels, really. Campaign's fun, but gets boring alone all the time. And yea, tomorrow works, probably.

I just dislike the pic in general, and the text kind of....well, not going to say anything. You get bonus points for the MSSW4, though. 4/10.

"How does gasoline affect PVC"? "How do horror movies with demonic clowns affect young children?"

Most likely. Definitely during the time in which you have that class, since you'll be inspected then and all that, but once you're back in your school I really don't know. Technically you're not to take it off from the time you leave home to the time you arrive back, unless you have a class like auto tech or PE, but I guess they can't really enforce it at another school.
