  1. A horrible tragedy. I also keep hearing of a school killing in Beijing that killed 22 children today also..
  2. It's an American film.. I imagine it'll be a half decent film, but I don't imagine it'll be very successful financially.

    I went snowboarding again yesterday, this time to a new mountain, which was a nice change up. I also attempted to teach my step-sister how to board. It was very tempting to leave her several times, as it would take her a good 5-10 minutes to get up after falling.. After lunch though, I was able to sneak away and do my own thing.

    You can always put down anyone else that can possibly talk about your work ethic, and don't worry if they don't know your creative work either, as you'll already have someone creditable to speak to. Be sure to have a portfolio or a selection of your work to show, if you don't already.

    I went snowboarding again yesterday. It snowed all day we were up there so visibility was shit, but it made for a great powder day.
  7. A bit of a lite reply, but the combat reminds me more of the first game where countering & defense was more important, and the game wasn't as forgiving as the past few installments.

    At the risk of sounding like an old man, I don't trust GPS systems. Where im living it's all still new to me and in a busy metropolitan area. I much prefer the old book maps over a GPS because I can map easily in my mind (yay for mental retardedness/Synesthesia) and usually when I use a GPS it goes "Turn righ- next turn in 'x' meters" I used to kind of be like that before I got a smartphone but, the only issues I find with GPSs, is the human error with location accuracy.

    I feel a lot of people these days relay to heavily on GPS to get to and from places, that they won't bother to learn the roads so when you ask a person where something is, or how to get somewhere, they can't actually tell you, even if they've lived somewhere for years.
  10. I thought the Raptors were going to have a better season then there having, cause every game I've seen of them this season they seem like they were pretty close.. Currently watching the Clippers T Wolves game.. It's painful watching both Love and Crawford missing baskets.. Both are on my fantasy team. Let it be know the Bobcats currently have a better winning % then the Lakers. Let that one sink in.

    I went snowboarding yesterday for the first time this season. We basically had the whole mountain to ourselves, which was really nice until my friend hurt his knee and we had to cut the day a little short.

    Skull it sounds like from what you want your new laptop to do, you could get away with an i5. The i7 is aimed more at high-end processing, which doesn't seem to interest you.
  14. I know this stuff happens, but I've never seen it get this kind of attention before.
  15. I guess there are 20 states that have petitions to secede from the US. I'm kind of surprised it hasn't got as much media attention (I could only find a legit article on BBC News) as I would think it should, even though it's still a very minor minority of citizens that have signed the petitions but still.
  16. I saw the end of the Raptors Utah game. It's unfortunate Lowry is still out, he's was playing so well before he tweaked his ankle. This season looked very promising until the Thunder started things off by trading Harden away. They single handily ruined the most likable team in the NBA. Then all this Laker drama started. Then we got deja vu talks of Portland being a early contender after a quick start like last season. The Clippers are off to a surprisingly good start. And the Knicks are 5-0 as of me typing this. I've only saw their game against the Heat, so I can't actually comment on what's working for them, but I am very surprised since I thought they made some bad moves in the off-season. Lets not forget to mention the Heat are looking more amazing then every with a stronger then ever with Lewis and Allen. My personal view of the Lakers was that they were going to start out bad to begin with, so their horrible start wasn't surprising. They have a strong starting 5 featuring 2 new all-start caliber players and not to mention a real PG. Naturally it was going to take time for them to work out their kinks. I honestly have been telling people to give the Lakers 15 games to get things worked out before they starting pulling out the pitchforks, so I was very surprised they let Brown go after only 5 games into the season. That's like firing a college football coach in the 3rd quarter of the first game. It just doesn't make sense, and it was Kobe's idea to use the Princeton offense, not Brown's.

    The bus was probably a prop for the corn maze.
  18. It really does take a bit of a time investment to run full marathons. I don't think I would challenge myself to do any faster then 3:30-4. The only people I know who are able to run it with any amount of speed, are basically semi-pro athletes.
  19. Probably the same thing he achieved in the past 4 years. Nothing. If you where to put blame on the lack of achievements over the past four years it should go on the lack of cooperation in congress.
  20. I'm looking forward to see what can be accomplished in these next four years. I am also very curious to see what the political landscape will be looking like 4 years down the road.
  21. I imagine that the prisoners will join the group now that the group has shrunk some, and to follow the unwritten rule that you need at least one black character. I don't know much about the comic from this point on, so anything that happens is new to me, I just hope Daryl doesn't die.
  22. Yeah, I always thought it'd be something fun to do. I've been trying to work up to do some triathlons this coming spring, so eventually I'll have to be giving a marathon a try sooner or latter.
  23. I'm not brave enough to try a marathon yet.
  24. I think it was a smart move. He's getting old, so why not sell to possible the best company to perserve your brand to the fullest. I also saw he plans to donate 4 billion, roughly all of the money he sold Lucas films for, to charity.
