What book are you currently reading?
Xenocide is so engaging. I don't know how I ever put it down in the first place. Definitely planning on finishing it during this break. I don't doubt that directly afterwards I'll start the fourth book of the series (Children of the Mind).

What movie(s) did you last see?
Super 8. It was alright. Thought it was pretty funny at time, especially seeing the kids interact with each other. Still wondering why it was called Super 8.

I got angry just reading all those tweets. Spoiled, ungrateful kids. <_<

Over, nice map btw (District v2.4). Just ran around it, pretended to no-scope some newbs, shot some rockets. Definitely has the feel of a map for MLG or something like that, haha. Also, been thinking about changing my xbox live gamertag. This one was kind of a play off one of my other friends who used to play a lot. Now he doesn't play at all, so it's kinda pointless. We were both planning on playing a lot together, but he recovered from a hip injury and is so busy with cross country now. :\

@Albel: Heck yes with the Skyrim sountrack. One of my favorites is The Streets of Whiterun. So peaceful. But all the tracks are awesome. And that's sweet that you got Soule's signature. So jealous. :thumbsup: My second oldest sister works today, too. :\ She's a manager at Amazon, so the holidays kinda suck for her.

God, by definition, has unlimited breath, so to speak, so I doubt that would keep Him from helping His son out a bit. Funny that we're talking about God as having breath. In the Hebrew Bible, God is often referred to as Yahweh, except that is the English translation so that we can actually pronounce the word. It was originally lacking vowels (YHWH) and was basically an attempt at an onomatopoeia of breathing. :grin: (YH for breathing in, WH for breathing out) At least, it's something like that.

We should also count the numerous people he could bribe with unlimited bread and fish. :thumbup:

If Santa even does kill Jesus, we'll just wait three days for him to resurrect. Jesus' strategy going into this is going to be simply to not lose. As long as he keeps rising from the dead, Santa will not win. I put my money in Jesus. Santa might get overheated in his outfit, too.

^Lol, that must've been an ugly game for them. :P So, I say I put the team on my back this game. At least in regards to how well I play, I think I did pretty well. Naded by my own teammates while getting read to sword two guys in armor lock, somehow not getting the kill for swording rocket dude (he got the suicide and I got the death), etc. The usual noob encounters. http://www.bungie.net/Stats/Reach/GameStats.aspx?gameid=882784172&player=GLENN%20blinks182

Haha, the shop sells longboards and various other products that people use with longboards (sliding gloves, decks, grip tape, knee pads, wheels, bearings). As for longboards: Longboarding wheels are generally softer than skateboard wheels, and much bigger in most cases. Many longboard decks don't have tails. The big difference is wheel-size, though, because it allows you to go faster and longer without pushing as much. I'm not sure you could get going 40+mph down a hill on a skateboard (unless you put longboard wheels on a skateboard, which many people do; in that case, you wouldn't make it far without getting speed wobble and bailing due to board length). I guess the trucks are a bit different, too, because of the bigger wheel base. The trucks are bigger in general, too. ----------------------- I made the filling to a pumpkin pie. It's the stuff you pour into the pie shell. :P

Longboarding
Just went to the longboard store near my house. Bought myself a pair of the shop's custom 80a wheels. Also bought some new Bones Reds bearings. My mom wants to wrap them so I can open them up for Christmas, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to try them out. It'll be good to have some decent wheels and bearings instead of the crap stock ones. The board shop also had some nice drop through decks for really cheap ($60 and $70). They were shorter boards, but I might look into buying one of them and just transferring my gullwings onto them. I'll keep my pintail though, just in case I want to hang it up in my house or use it later.

So, my mom is sad because I don't have that many presents to open tomorrow. Opening presents (as in actually having physical presents to unwrap) is her thing, so I told her I would go down to the longboard shop near my house today and buy some new wheels and bearings so that she can wrap them up for me. Then I realized that it's Christmas Eve, and they're probably not open. Craaaap.

What book are you currently reading?
Found out that I hadn't finished reading Xenocide by Orson Scott Card. Luckily, I placed a bookmark in there. I'll probably pick up reading that book for now.

What are you listening to right now!?
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim - The Original Game Soundtrack Took two hours to download. So worth it, though.
