  1. If it isn't a bit Inglorious Love/Action movie, then I want to see it.
  2. I spend quite a bit of time thinking about writing, and about religion and philosophy.
  3. I don't think that there really is anything that can be called "True Happiness" - people always want what they can't have, and want to more than what they have.
  4. I would use it to hone my writing skills... 10,000 hours is quite a bit of time.
  5. You hit that nail right on the head.
  6. Put that in reverse and listen to how stupid that sounds.
  7. I'm not a runner but I can see that he really is impressive. Love his name as well.
  8. Abbydog, I totally agree with that. And they won't be going after the guys that are downloading: they're just going to try to nail the bit sites and torrent uploaders/Initial seeders. And yea, some bands do that, but mostly only for underground music.
  9. The Pirate Bay isn't closing... stuff is changing, but do they really think another site won't just replace it? Google it, there are dozens of smaller sites that will grow IF it is acquired. First of all, the most important fact about piracy is profit division: if an artist that I like sells an album, they get 3.3% (maybe not if you're say, Britney Spears or Rihanna... facts are here --> http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=101815) Now, I am a metalhead, and routinely buy T-shirts, which are just about as poorly made as clothing can be. Yet, to wear this sacred uniform, I often pay up to $25. Many times, the proceeds head straight back into the band's pocket. And this doesn't count ticket sales, which it seems they just raise the price of any time they feel like they need a bit of extra money. Call it justification, but no matter what, I will fight lining the pockets or wealthy, useless, corporate executives. Movies, in my opinion are a bit different than music: I have more of a problem with that than music, personally. First of all, and most importantly to me, I don't watch super popular movies, just when I'm forced to, really. That means that I'm not just helping to stuff the pockets of Tom Cruise or whoever else people worship these days. Movie tickets are however, grossly overpriced in my opinion, but if I have to shell up $10 (4.99 on cheap night) then I do. I refuse to watch twenty minutes of commercials in a half hour show. Seems like that's what the same bloated executives want, but screw it, I refuse. I don't watch T.V. really anymore. Online, occasionally, or when with addicted friends.
  10. Not funny. But I think maybe I'll poke around a little bit and see if there's anything I can do to help make this guy's life a bit more miserable for what he did.
  11. I live in Canada, and it's pretty damn great. Sure, they say that our wait times are longer than in the 'States, but that always seems to be comparing those paying against our free health care. I can say that in my family, we would be severely in debt, and most likely would have lost our house if we had to pay the medical bills, and my parents are considered wealthy. If we lived in a country without health care, my younger sister would have died shortly after birth, my grandmother would probably not be with us, and I honestly have no idea where the thousands of dollars for my grandfather's palliative care after he contracted cancer would have come from. I see national health care as being the future: a system where people pay individually is just too inefficient and limiting. Unfortunaetly, the Republicans have labeled it as "Communism". Perhaps it does have a bit of a socialist feel to it. But why should that matter? If the system works (and, for the most part, it does) then why should it matter what it is labeled as?
  12. For how bad that minigame is, too many. -.- Gotta agree with that.
  13. Guthan's is enormously useful for healing, as a secondary combat armor (primary if you don';t care about repair costs) and as long as you have a good weapon to use instead of the spear, your XP is almost certain to be faster. Dharok's can hit amazingly, and is great for SAFE PvP'ing and power Str training.

    Never heard of it, and I can't find it anywhere online.
  15. CW one would probably be best for you.
  16. This is certainly a thread that I find interesting. I don't really have any exact requirements, or rather, and specific list of things that I find attractive: rather, I struggle with finding someone with the right mix of qualities: attractive girls tend to only warrant 2.5 minutes or less of intelligent conversation. Girls that can communicate in a reasonably intelligent fashion for any prolonged period of time are almost always unattractive.
  17. Have you ever seen anyone train with claws? Useless, unless you PvP, and even then, only REALLY good when you're Pj'ing. (Not that I do it: it's a slight to anyone's honour.)
  18. Just ordered my HP G60t... 3gb memory 250gb hard drive 16" Screen with upgraded LED brightview. HP Inkjet Printer... $400 (USD) :thumbsup: My Dad gets a huge discount because he works for EDS.
  19. I took, Kung fu for quite a few years, then learned that 90% of all fights are won by: >Fake right hook >Left to head >Left to stomach >Knee to chest as they collapse/fold over >Right to side of head. Has yet to let me down.

    But you see drivers being punished, fined, losing their license, prison sentences. Apart from the guy who killed a pedestrian on his bike: http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest/348193/cyclist-who-killed-pedestrian-escapes-jail-sentence.html I've never heard of a cyclist being punished for unsafe cycling. Plus (I'm not saying this entitles drivers to drive recklessly) there is no mandatory test of road safety for cyclists, while there is a test for drivers. I'd have thought that cyclists would realise how vulnerable they are and cycle accordingly. Also, it appears the riders in that video had no regard for their safety since there wasn't a helmet in sight. From a selfish personal safety stand point, drivers can be more reckless 'cos they're protected with air bags, seat belts and a crumple zone. Bikers have none of those things. I'm not condoning reckless driving but I'm just making a point that drivers can and do drive recklessly with less risk of injury to themselves. Knowing that, bikers should take even more care. Except for "...had no regard for their safety since there wasn't a helmet in sight." I agree with what you have to say. But isn't the offending cyclist often an immature teenager? (I am a teenager myself, but I still obey most laws.)
  21. Thank you, that's what I was thinking of: not Basilisks! :wall:
  22. But that's you assuming that he can buy them on the G.E. - in my opinion, there is just about zero chance of that: he'd have to buy them at the rather volatile "street" price, and is that worth it?
  23. It's starting to sound like this belongs in the debate forum. What was the original question anyway, lol?
  24. Unless you're getting them to make a specific familiar, I would reccomend using crimsons instead. Better xp, less cost. But, if you do want to use greens, I find green dragons, and basilisks (pretty sure) drop a fair number. Normally I just use Slayer, so I'm not 100% sure.
  25. If you will use them, I would say go ahead and do it for sure, and remember that it is quite a bit of xp, even though you said you were mainly after cash. Anyway, here are the numbers. (I'm bored, so I'll do the math for you. :D ) Finished Potato: 1,860 -Corn (cooked):160 -Potato(cooked):208 -Butter: 559 (I would recommend making this yourself.) Profit per potato: 933 gold. 933*3,000=2,799,000gp. Quite a bit of cash, and if you do it this way, quite a bit of xp as well. If you make the butter yourself, it's even more profit, although to make 3k pats of butter probably would take a few hours, you would make just a bit under 4.5mil.
