No wonder you've made so many posts in so little time. :shock: Well, I broke mine yesterday. I decided to go on a health kick, then ate some Chicken wings last night at about 1am. I suppose it isn't so bad, though. There wasn't much in the fridge. :( -Mitch

A childs ball runs onto the road. You are driving at 50mph. There is a car very near your rear end. You do not know whether the child is going to chase the ball onto the road or not and if you carry on at the speed you do, you will most likely hit the child. Do you: A: Slow down alot, possibly causing the car behind you to crash into your rear? B: Gradually slow down, taking a risk of hitting the child. C: Speed up, breaking the speed limit, trying to get there before the child does. D: Attempt to flag the car behind you, telling him to slow down, then you slow down. Hope it puts you into a state of mind. -Mitch

Me and Kayla were talking about this earlier, funnily enough. I live in Wales - United Kingdom. I like it, but I think I would like to live an American lifestyle without the cholesterol. Basketball! xD -Mitch

I used to play them as 1 point, as any other goal. But then I used to make fun of the other people because I actually score a goalie shot. :P -Mitch

If you like CSS..... My sig! -Clicky- -Mitch Don't worry, it's only fun. And you'll be in a team. :D -Mitch I know, I read the thread. I just don't want to get my can kicked to me because I am used to CZ.

Probably Command & Conquer: Red Alert on the PS. My Dad and I used to system link the Playstations and play that for hours on end. Him and my cousin once had a match (they were rivals, both amazing, but never played eachother) the match lasted near 14 hours and my Dad had him, just. Truely was the best RTS of it's time. -Mitch

I don't. I hate it. Luckily, I've just encouraged my Dad to give up for a NY Resolution. :D -Mitch

Agreed. This time next month, he'll be on the streets. Bankrupt. Betting his house. -Mitch

Same happened to me with the laptop I'm using now. I shoved the hoover in the back and jeeeeeze, it was matted with -crap-. OK, you don't seem to have time to do a full system scan for Viruses. Are you familiar with the inside of your computer and their components? -Mitch

Personally, I don't like people who claim benefits when they're not needed. I have a family living opposite me in a very nice house, all paid for by tax payers. These people are fraudulent idiots. Lazy. They're perfectly healthy, but never worked a day in their life. I don't want you to turn out to be one of these people. Find a job you have interest in. Eg: If you like graphics design, go to a local job centre and say "Hey, I'm x years of age, I'm looking for a job whereby I would enjoy and use my graphics design skills". If you shop around, you'll eventually find a job you'll love. You'll want to get up for it in the morning. You won't say "Damn, have to go to work now" or "Can't wait for the weekend." Work isn't overrated. People who say it's hard, say it's overrated because they've made a mistake somewhere along the line. How old are you? If you're still young, don't make the mistake of bunking off in school, skipping lessons and homework. Try your best, and believe me, it will pay off... Vastly. So, in summary: Find something - A hobby - Try to adapt it so you can use it to work. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you're young and can't legally get a full time job, work on something you enjoy. Again, I'll use the example of graphics design. Use it to make a website, then gradually build it up into a community. Then, as said above... Use a website to gain profit. -Mitch

... A shark. -Mitch

You could try "Animation Shop Pro" for animating, though I'm not sure if it's free anymore. I've used it quite alot and found it really easy to use. You could also try Photoshop animaton features. I haven't personally used them, but I've seen other people using it and it seems fairly simple. -Mitch [Yay for typing out my first post on a Wii. It took long enough.]

OK, cheers for the help guys. My Dad's taking me to Maplins today to get the extension, it's only cheap, luckily. I'll report back with the news, later. :) Many thanks. -Mitch

That's what won't reach the socket. The lead is too short, but I was told that it was only for P4 chips that was needed. Diminished: I have a molex socket in my PCI-E card, and that's all plugged in. There is power going to it, as the fan is working perfectly on it. I've read the manual, and how do I "short" the two pins to clear my CMOS? -Mitch

That's what "Not getting no output to my monitors whatsoever" usually means. Could it be my PSU? There's one connection which will not reach the socket on my motherboard, but... Many people have said that's only needed if you use a P4 chip. -Shrugs-, I'm not sure. -Mitch

Yeah, I got this for Christmas, I plugged it in and everything, got the power going to it. It's in the PCI-E x16. But I'm getting no output to my monitors whatsoever. Any ideas? Current Specs along with it: 1gb RAM Gigabyte AM2 Socket Motherboard AMD Athlon 4200+ Duel Core -Mitch

Whoa. This is a big relief for me. I've been getting them quite alot recently and it really started to scare me, I thought I was having minor heart attacks or something. :P But yeah, I've been getting them alot in the past year and I'm almost 16, now... From the input I've seen, alot of other people get them too... -Mitch

I want to be a doctor. [Just taking the pish] I think Nik would like to be a soccer player. -Mitch

I can picture Nadril saying that in a very husk voice. xD Aussie Pride :lol: I'm a true-blue Aussie Male. You're a Smurf? :D --- Back on-topic. I am the man. Beat that, Nadril. :wink: -Mitch

Do you eat more meat than you need to in order to maintain a proper diet? Would it be possible, perhaps even nutritionally advisable, for you to eat less meat? In other words, do you kill animals by proxy in order to survive, or because it tastes good? Moral issues aside, there's energy issues that needs to be considered as the human population grows larger. A vegetarian diet, or just plain a diet where the amount of meat is kept at a level where no extra protein intake is required, is much more energy effecient than a meat based diet. OK, I can honestly say that I eat more meat than I need to, to maintian a nutritional diet. BUT, did you know, a female lion spends almost all of her life hunting? Yes, some of it go to her offspring and the alpha-male, but she does eat quite alot of it. Thus, that could prove that it's natural. You eat the best you can, when you're hungry. Also: For all you know, I could have a theorum whereby nuclear Winter is near and I'm stocking up! :wink: But that could lead onto a more serious issue. We need nutrition for energy (Obviously). With a very cold Winter upon the UK at the moment, we need to eat alot to have the energy to keep us warm. Meh, it's just a thought. -Mitch

:lol: That made me laugh! Haha, seconded. :D The most unusual gift I've ever recieved is a Gameboy cartridge-case with a piece of paper saying "Pok̮̩̉̉mon Blue" on it with a badly drawn Blastoise just beneath it. Was quite funny at the time; I guess they ran outta' cash. xD -Mitch

Whoa. That put a smile to my face; knowing we have people on TIF who care about stuff like that is pretty cool. MPC: I hope you have a very happy holidays, man. It's also made me think. I was just about to throw about 3 large bin-liners full of clothing out. I just told my Mum she HAS to take them to Oxfam tomorrow, before Christmas. -Mitch

I have one thing to say: If cows were carnivorous, would they hesitate to kill us to survive? They couldn't do it in a humane way, they'd do it in whatever way they could. OK, I have a question for Issy: Have you ever ridden a horse/wanted to ride a horse? -Mitch

I looooove the background. Very nice. Could do with a bit more 'glow' to it, though... Just to make it all the more Christmas-y. Try and fiddle with the render. Put a faint effect on her or something... Just to make it look like it fits. (I know it does already, but a simple render is boring). Very well-done. -Mitch
