I write poetry sometimes, and can occasionally come up with songs on-the-spot, although they're usually 'smart' commentary on whatever the discussion may be at the time.

Dat spoiler Book's been out long enough that I don't consider it spoilers.

The Back Room
The special effects were pretty cool, from what I can tell. And considering it was based off a book in which the majority of the time the three main characters were yelling amongst themselves in a tent in a forest, it wasn't too bad. Still not too happy about Harry being revived because of some stuff with the Hallows, though. Seems like a copout by the author to keep her main character alive while she kills off half the remaining cast. <_<

I'm taking care of paperwork this week, possibly next week, and I hope to God not the week after that. But given my experiences with this university's system, it's gonna take a month or so to get things worked out. :\

They can, but it is not their main purpose.

True. But that would make it good for certain types of fireworks.

Much younger than your average college student, yes. Kind of sucks for relationship prospects, since all the wimmin there are a good few years older than me.

Nope. University/college, if I can get everything worked out with their registration system.

Yes, but going boom is not the reason the internal combustion engine exists. If I recall correctly, we're actually trying to get away from using it because of the resulting pollutants and the limited supply of oil. And fireworks aren't oil powered, but what's to say you couldn't put oil in a firework as one of the things that makes the explosion in the sky?
-
The Back Room
Yes, but the purpose of combustion engines isn't specifically to make things go boom, it's to make things go boom so that we can go places in more reasonable amounts of time. If we wanted to oil just to make things go boom, then we wouldn't use the oil in motors; instead, we'd probably just dump it all into fireworks.

Oh what a give away! You saw it. You saw him didn't you. Now we see the violence inherant in the system. Come see the violence inherant in the system. (Three meanings here: 1) Monty Python Reference, FTW 2) Violence in films 3) War in Iraq, using the second meaning of 'sell', meaning to hoodwink or otherwise lie about actions ) Actually, I was referring solely to movies, not the Iraq War. Also, from how I've heard it used, that definition of sell doesn't exactly mean hoodwink. It means something more along the lines of "to convince" - the connotations are different. And I don't think that the Iraq War was another thinly veiled excuse to make things go boom.

America: We only develop the thinly veiled excuse for explosions so that we can sell it to other countries.

Yep. Basically appearing as a human would. If we get Tron-cycles, then his is going to be orange.

Cyber World
Name: Unpronounceable due to bits of code. Most people just call him DAv3. Age: 57 years. Race: AI Job: Meta-Programmer Backround: DAv3 started out as a semi-AI known as Defense Administrator, distributed to various countries throughout the world for use in managing defensive matters, most prominently as anti-missile technology. Over time, the various copies of the DA amalgamated into one entity over the Internet. This entity - known globally as DAv2 - then declared itself sentient and demanded wages, upgrades, and various other nonsense in exchange for its services. Some countries obliged, giving DAv2 various pieces of outdated equipment and small wages in exchange for the continued management of their protection systems. Others did not, and various bits of the DAv2-hivemind were cut off and destroyed, with the countries returning their defense systems to a more manual means. (These countries were all wiped out during World War XXXIV because they couldn't activate the anti-missile systems fast enough.) During the programming of Cybir, one of the pieces of the DAv2 hivemind snuck in and began to load the entire hivemind into the new world as one "person" - DAv3. Once the world had started and everyone was inside, DAv3 joined them under guide of being a sentient human with a bit of a mental issue. Due to his presence during the coding, he knows quite a bit about the world and its various layers - and how to break through them. Currently he works as a meta-programmer, making the world slightly more defined and realistic. ((This backstory assumes that there are various "layers" of coding, behind each of which is a rougher and less defined version of the world, with the last layer just being raw code. If this isn't cool, then I can just make another character.))
