Gun Control
Erm... it wasn't me who brought it up. I meant having immigrants in England. Sorry 'bout not being clearer.

Most unethical thoughts that cross your mind
Oh yeah, and I've thought of taking babies and throwing them. For funsies. Probably just me projecting my fear of dropping a baby into the open, though.

Your favorite book/book series
I say the ending should have been something like this: [hide=Ending. Spoilers.]Centaurs swarm the school, killing everyone. Dumbledore comes back and reveals he's a transvestite. And then marries Voldemort. And they have snake children. And then unicorns impale the children. And Voldemort and Dumbledore combine to destroy Delaware, striking a vicious blow at America. Oh, wait. It's Delaware.[/hide]

Gun Control
Mmm, you bringing up immigrants really has no value, Ginger. Some of the largest drug-smuggling rings exist between the U.S. and Central and South America, probably a good bit from the Caribbean as well. Hence, much more crime. And, I'm sure you know this, most of the drug smugglers are illegal immigrants who can always slip back across the border.

Most over-rated band ever?
In my eyes, the only thing Japan's useful for is "WTF" moments. In music, movies, and television.

Your favorite book/book series
It's so predictable and cliche. Played right into the hands of what everybody expected, she seemed to decide to go for the money rather than the creativity and originality she made in the earlier books. Of course, she could have done something crazy, nobody would have known. They'da just bought it because of the series.

What are you listening to right now!?
Champagne Supernova - Oasis. Oh, wait, it's over. Now I'm listening to Alright for Now - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

What are your flaws?
I wouldn't call it a feeling, more a flavor. But I've only even chewed tobacco twice. Once was because I thought it was roast beef (when I was younger) and once when I wanted to see the feeling. Can't do it for long, though, your jaw will start to hurt like hell. Snuff's a bit easier for me.

What are your flaws?
Oh yeah, snuff, chewing tobacco, and Jack and Coke on occasion.

Scare Tactics Used to Teach Kids
You're presuming the scare tactics actually work. In my experience with the people I've grown up with, they sure as hell don't. It worked for me and my friends, anyhow. But that's probably because its true in our cases. And mage, that second link you posted showed a high school with an awesome name. El Camino...Hehe.

Scare Tactics Used to Teach Kids
Well, I definitely believe in scare tactics being used with unprotected sex. Of course, my view is probably biased by the fact that my town has one of the highest rates of STDs in the nation. I ain't getting the clam.

Meat lovers vs. Vegetarians
Hoho, I see what you did there. As other people have said, I prefer well-hunted meat to anything from a store. But, hey, as we've gotten more "civilized" you just can't feed a city from hunting alone, just as you couldn't feed a city from gathering berries and the such.

Your favorite book/book series
Well, yeah. Dan Simmon's Cantos series as well as Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials series are my all-time favorites.

What are you listening to right now!?
Fliting with Time - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Ah, love Tom Petty :

Freshmen, how has your school been so far?
Am I the only person who's thought being swirlied would be fun? I keep snorkles on me at all time, though, so that might be a factor. Yes, plural. Someone may want to share in the fun.

Let me see your shoes!
People underestimate how much a steel-toed boot to the shin hurts.

YOU WANTED TO MAKE HER SING "Ice, Ice Baby" WITH YOU?!?! You sick, twisted little man.

Freshmen, how has your school been so far?
Oh yeah, I still have a project to do. And I have to find out what the hell I need for golf. I'll probably be the guy walking in with three clubs, one two feet too long, the rest making me almost sit when I use them. :lol:

Gun Control
That post made me chuckle, shadow. (In a good way) EDIT: Huh, never noticed mage's post. But scoot's right, that's a horridly ignorant view. I'd try to avoid the name-calling and how personal it got, but he is right.

Tattoos
Good advice right there. Also, there are numbing gels available to buy (I have no clue where to buy them) that might be a good idea if you can't handle much pain. Remember never to get drunk before you go in for a tattoo though. Alcohol thins the blood and the process goes quicker with less bleeding ;) They don't have to spend as much time wiping the area clean What kind of pain medication would you guys suggest? I can take pain, just don't like it.

Leeds/Reading Festival 2008
I don't know what this is, but the music lineups look amazing.

Scare Tactics Used to Teach Kids
I can understand using scare tactics for a lot these days. But not everything, particularly not sex and alcohol and such. It'll just make us get into it earlier and more - I know. My family is very open with things like drugs and alcohol and cigarettes, so I'm actually able to make my own choices. It actually helped me, smoking was nasty in my eyes, so I probably won't even try it again, I've always disliked the average beer, and marijuana just doesn't do much for me. I do have to say I don't mind snuff or chewing tobacco. Just don't do it much, it'd be an expensive habit. There've been some scare tactics used at my schools. But in elementary school, where I'd think they'd be heaviest, the school was too poor to afford any actual programs. :twss:

What happens when you expose a kid to sex / violence
My parents gave me a computer and internet access. That was our "talk". And they told me to wrap up my tool. If I come back with herpes, I don't get to eat turkey at Thanksgiving.

Need Urgent Agility Help
Ape Atoll after 75, always. You're stuck with barbarian until 52, unless you don't mind using a summer pie at 47 and failing a good bit at the wilderness course.

well then... its about time
Pretty neat. I hate your barrows drop rate. All those runs were probably half the length of my current dry run. :? Meh, I have had good enough luck at barrows. How about a trout/bonfire.
