DPH> <<Would that work in reverse so that if I gain points I get to add extra layers of clothing?>>: I'd assume so, or maybe it would be better to enforce a no cleric rule and have limited healing, but when you do get a chance to heal the GM loses clothes.

Brutis> <<curses in russian...na zdorov'ya>>: If you do actually know Russian, I'd think you should be able to guess that that is just a toast I use as a tagline/sig.
<<kinda lost me a little>>: If you are actually being serious here and not just joking around with Fire Storm, you might want to know that at the bottom of most browsers there's a grey strip that tells you all the fun things your browser is thinking about, and also displays where links go to. That, and badgerbadgerbadger.com is rather obvious about its content.
<<im a redneck from louisiana) (not)>>: Correct, with an IP registered to a Santa Clara company.
<<stoupid old me didnt wear any of that stuff>>: If you were a Real Man (tm), you wouldn't care about a little chemical accident like that.

Na zdorov'ya.

And what's with all the complaining over Vows getting shown again? That's my favorite episode! If I wasn't cleaning up after two parties thrown at my house against my will, I definately would have been watching.

The Gathering -- Is there any place to look at previous "BIDS" for holding the convention. I'm kind of curious what they look like. I'm kind of chewing on the idea of 2005, but I want to see what was offered in previous bids and such. I've worked conventions before, but never one where bids were made to have it.

Looking for INFO

As I reformat my portables hard drive to reinstall windows XP because it had so many viruses on it that it was untenable... And I didnt do anything with it ... I think someone has my cable IP and is exploiting windows holes...

At any rate my whole day is now shot reinstalling XP, drivers, etc on my portable.

Patrick - <Are you complaining just for kicks, or do you have some constructive suggestions to make? I know there's a number of people who are eager to find out where Gathering 2005 will be so they can hurry up and grump about how once again they can't/won't attend, but I'm just a messenger here.> Impatience, one of my faults. <Stranger than Demona's absence from the main cast list... there's a whole category for PIT members, but the only one listed is Andrea.> I could tell you a stranger story about how the creater of TGS Resources Page started to work on a page for Victims of Organized Crime . . but ended up scrapping the page after realizing that he had put the whole list together and didn't have any names for Victims of Organized Crime. Also, as a reminder, the creator of the TGS Resources Page has the mindset of a programmer - laying ground work for future development by having a page even listing only 1 person.

Hardwing - <Where is Demona in it? I read in the main cast, the supporting cast and by Nightstone. Is she unimportant?> Answer #1. She's important, but so special she's in a category by herself. Apparantly the guy working on the TGS Resources Pages needs to be fired for not doing her page. Answer #2 - The creator of the TGS Resources Pages blames GXB for letting this huge oversight occur. Answer #3 - The creator of the TGS Resources Pages is only human and things get overlooked.

Seriously, the creator of the TGS Resources Page doesn't mind taking constructive criticism about those pages. If there are problems, the creator expects to be alerted.

**Yu-Gi-Oh Spoilers**

Ok, so this is how Kiba planned on deciding the semi-final matches. Naturally, this fits Kiba's disbelief in teamwork: any two people who decide to team-up will end up facing each other.

Motivations for who should want who to duel whom:

A forenote: whoever ends up dueling against Joey gets the raw end of the stick . . see note later.

1)Kiba - Yes, his motivation matched his self-interest perfectly well. Yes, battling Yugi before going against Merrick makes perfect sense from his POV and making Joey fight against Merrick keeps Merrick from getting another god card. The big warning is Kiba placing all 3 of his Blue-Eyes white dragons on the field at once while playing against Merrick. Merrick could use a magic card to sacrifice Kiba's dragons giving his virtually untouchable attack points. Of course, Kiba has a couple of ways around that. His cyberjar monster is the key to beating every god card because of its special effect.

2)Merrick - Truthfully, it doesn't really matter whom he battles against. In fact, given his intense hatred of Yugi, it makes sense for him to push Joey to fight against Kiba. He gets a chance to reclaim the god card he lost. I expect it's Merrick vs Kiba for the 1st duel of the semifinals, based on where things have been headed.

3)Yugi - I don't his actions were in his best self-interest. Truthfully, he should be setting Kiba to go against Joey to protect as many people as possible from Merrick's shadow duels. By aligning himself with Joey, he'll be setting himself up to fight against Joey, which is bad planning. I hope it's Yugi vs Merrick for the semifinals.

4)Joey - poor Joey. He's the odd-man out. Sorry, he has to lose in this next round, unless he faces against Kiba, just because. [Before the series is over, I'd really like Joey to finally beat Kiba in a game, even if it is handicapped to put Kiba at a disadvantage.] Whoever has to battle against Joey is the real loser of the current 4-way duel. Joey has nothing to offer that would really tip the scales for any duelist (except for a certain magic card that puts 4 scape goats on the field which can be sacriced making it easier for somebody to summon a god card.) The only reason for Joey has to lose is because of the god cards. Take those away and Joey does have a fair shot - if he can keep a cool head. The recent trip into VR where he had to pick his own cards to duel with gave me some hope in his talent. It's own thing to have a deck handed to you; it's another to know why each card is usefull and how to use it.

**End Yu-Gi-Oh spoilers**

Gside - < Every time you take a point of damage, you lose a piece of clothing?> Would that work in reverse so that if I gain points I get to add extra layers of clothing?

Friendly word of advise: don't trust any recipe found on the internet unless somebody claims to have followed it precisely. No comment about bad directions.

For those of you wondering, yes, progress is being made on the gargoyles card game. I discovered back in 1998, there was a discussion in this very cr about a gargoyles card game. We all know what became of it.

Warpmind> <<so she can come back online!>>: I'd settle for Gunjack.
<<Drunken fighting stance? No, not yet>>: At least you've got the hand positions down, since you take your sake the traditional way.
<<I'm getting pretty good at wielding improvised weapons>>: But can you use your belt as a sword yet?
<<nowhere near as embarassing as the custard'n'ostrich incident>>: I do believe that was before my time.

Fire Storm> <<Oh, like being fair ever really mattered!>>: It doesn't really, but we need more volume if I want to keep him. Please mommy, can I?
<<Then someone would end up saying "Oh jeez... That's disgusting! Stop that!">>: Then why'd they invite me to the orgy anyway?
<<I take it meeting at the orgy won't work for you then, eh?>>: They're too different activities to mesh well.
<<They can't. But God isn't a contestant>>: Wouldn't taking bets from God ruin the suspense?
<<Are you SURE it's not an ex-parrot?>>: Absolutely, it's a CR, and it stuns easily.
<<Hmm... strip RP>>: Every time you take a point of damage, you lose a piece of clothing?
<<Do I really need to specify that the female must be HUMAN?>>: With me there? Probably.

Lynati> <<Silver Nitrate? check>>: Ah the fun of having black spots on your skin.

Fire Storm> <<But what about saftey glasses?>>: I always wear them. Granted there's no side guard, but they're good for most things.

Brutis> <<you just had to taunt me into clicking the link i so hate you now>>: This is what you get for not crossreferencing the status bar with you knowledge of domains.

Gside: <I know, it's not fair to Warpmind.>
Oh, like being fair ever really mattered!
<Alright then, I don't want to know. Scat just doesn't do it for me.>
There are some fetish's that I just don't like, and that's one of the few.
<I can see it now: You're doing someone, I can't convince anyone to join me, so I'm doing myself>
Na. Then someone would end up saying "Oh jeez... That's disgusting! Stop that!"
<One that'll get you a raise if you put on some clothes and leave this office now>
CLOTHES? NOW they want me to wear clothes? I don't like this place anymore!
<Sorry, that's when the orgy starts. How about after?>
Hmm... I take it meeting at the orgy won't work for you then, eh?
<I thought contestants couldn't place bets.>
They can't. But God isn't a contestant.
<Only a little if they do a good job.>
But then they may like it.
<Even if she agrees to take payment in the form of bacon?>
Hmm... Well, IF you can find someone that is willing to have sex with you in exchange for bacon... I suppose I'd allow it.
<Bea-utiful plumage.>
Are you SURE it's not an ex-parrot?
<Are you at least charging him rent?>
Not for the first month or so. The hope and theory is that he will only be there for a month or two, three at the most. He will be there so he doesn't have any major bills to pay so he can get himself out of a financial bind. IF it looks like it will be longer, then we will most likely charge rent AND have him give us money so we can make some permanent accommodations, like converting the garage and/or expanding the house.
<That's just not good. The dieing is bad enough, but not being told? My condolences, anyway.>
Thanks. They did always say that they didn't want anyone to mourn their loss, so it kinda makes sense. You know, in a weird twisted way.

DPH: <Financial difficulties await me.>
Bugger.
<Plus being in Las Vegas, I would want to make sure that I'm not the 1st person to enter any room, least anybody try to take set me up for taking pictures of things I wasn't doing>
Trust me... the pictures of you actually doing things would be FAR more interesting.
<Besides that, I'd have to find a whopper of a lie to visit the "city of sin" and come back without facing . . some people really questioning my activities in that place>
Which would be all true. Trust us. We'd see to it. Besides... does he really have to know you went to Vegas? You could tell him that the Gathering is in, hell, I dunno... Fresno or something.
<I have suspicions that some of you guys would also try to find ways to . . lower my inhibitations>
Hell yeah! And forget lowering them! We want to completely REMOVE them!
<I have zero plans to become un-sober because it's hard enough to make good decisions when you're thinking clearly.>
Tsk tsk... you should know by now that there are far more effective methods of persuasion than alcohol and drugs!
<On the other hand, if I do get to go to a future Gathering and the card game group is far enough along, I'll be manning a booth about the card game and hopefully challenging a few people to some games>
Hmm... strip RP...

Green Baron: <I'm pretty sure they are women. This is Las Vegas, not New Orleans we are talking about>
Yeah, but you never know now, do you?
<If Michael Moore has a daughter, I'm sure DPH and Gisde can get someone, or we can take them to a sheep ranch in Australia>
Do I really need to specify that the female must be HUMAN?
That is kinda speciest of me, isn't it? I guess a female gargoyle or a female of a sentient biological race would be good too.

Brutis: <i offically hate you...:p lol naa i stil like ya>
I aim to enrage!
<that is the most annoying thing>
You know you want to click the link yet again. You know the dangers. You know the risks. But you can't get the song out of your head. And the images.
But the memories of images aren't good enough, now are they? No, of course not. So you want to click my link.
Go on.
It won't hurt.
It will take the pain away.
Just *ONE* click. Nothing bad can happen with just one tiny little link, now can it?

Fire Storm> <<Now, given that this is Vegas, we MUST include the stipulation that said girl MUST be female (genetically), AND she cannot be paid for said act. She must be willing to take one for the team, so to speak.>>
I'm pretty sure they are women. This is Las Vegas, not New Orleans we are talking about. If Michael Moore has a daughter, I'm sure DPH and Gisde can get someone, or we can take them to a sheep ranch in Australia :D

And now to be more offensive. I bring in a top ten from the master of humor, Frank J. :)

Top Ten Things Overheard from Insurgents in Fallujah
As I yet again steal David Letterman's intellectual property (hey, I'm pretty sure one of his writers once stole from me), here is:

TOP TEN THING OVERHEARD FROM INSURGENTS IN FALLUJAH

10. "I'm not scared of any infidel U.S. Marine... but those camels, man; they bite.

9. "Just out of idle curiosity, do you still get 72 virgins if you're shot in the back while running away?"

8. "It doesn't matter that the U.S. troops have better weapons, better tactics, and some concept of hygiene, because we have Allah on our side! He will... Hey! Allah is escaping out the back! Someone stop Him! Allah, You coward!"

7. "I know we should be more concerned with this holy war, but I think it would be nice if someone subtly mentioned the Atkins diet to Sadr."

6. "There is some point to this insurgency other than getting us all killed, right?"

5. "I just can't stand those infidels with their loose women who walk around uncovered! By the way, does anyone have more pictures of that outrage?"

4. "I think Sadr may be inflating the amount of support we have, because it looks like half of our fellow 'brothers' are just monkeys dressed up in bandoliers."

3. "If we hide in a mosque, we'll be safe. No one would bomb a mosque... other than us, I mean."

2. "Stupid Americans trying to make things better for other people! Did it ever occur to them that some of us like festering?"

And the number one thing over heard from insurgents in Fallujah...

"I'm not just going to stand around here waiting to die. F**k this Shiite!"

What is the current status of the various storylines within the Gargoyals saga? Particularly the actual 'Gargoyles' I have looked carefully for information but had little luck.

If anyone would care to email me any pertinant information that would be well appreciated. In the interim I wish the general members herin well.

And yes, I always talk like this.

I remain, as always,

Precioussssss ssssake... :)
I don't drink much, and I don't drink often, but I really, really do enjoy some good rice wine. :)

Anyways, replies an' stuff.

Gside: I think Zatoichi would be insulted by anyone calling him a masseuse... Masseur, yes, masseuse, no. ;) And true, violating international treaties is fun, but I prefer not to tamper too much with already endangered species.

Also, I think the CR has just been spammed...

Anyways, I'm off. Later, all; I've got a Fighter/Dragon Disciple to work on in Neverwinter Nights...

DPH > Are you complaining just for kicks, or do you have some constructive suggestions to make? I know there's a number of people who are eager to find out where Gathering 2005 will be so they can hurry up and grump about how once again they can't/won't attend, but I'm just a messenger here.

And on that note...

98 days left until The Gathering 2004 in Montreal, Quebec!

Today is the LAST DAY to pre-register for The Gathering 2004 before prices go up.

Fire Storm - I know you guys are busy, but could you at least confirm my attempt at changing my profile? <IF we can get DPH AND Gside there, at least> Financial difficulties await me. Plus being in Las Vegas, I would want to make sure that I'm not the 1st person to enter any room, least anybody try to take set me up for taking pictures of things I wasn't doing. Just because I've put most of my paranoia behind me doesn't mean I don't believe in taking some precautions. Besides that, I'd have to find a whopper of a lie to visit the "city of sin" and come back without facing . . some people really questioning my activities in that place. I have suspicions that some of you guys would also try to find ways to . . lower my inhibitations. I have zero plans to become un-sober because it's hard enough to make good decisions when you're thinking clearly.

On the other hand, if I do get to go to a future Gathering and the card game group is far enough along, I'll be manning a booth about the card game and hopefully challenging a few people to some games. [Even better is attending the Gathering with the gargoyles card game ready and possibly getting Greg Weisman to play one game.]

Green Baron - <I did hear there is a bid for Vegas> I'd like to repeat a comment made earlier in the other cr. As of this moment, there are **0** official bids for the Gathering 2005.

<99 days left until The Gathering 2004 in Montreal, Quebec!> And still, no official bids for the Gathering 2005.

At least, it looks like Ask Greg should get through most of the Gathering 2002 reports before the Gathering 2005 starts.

And yea, I got confirmation today that I get to work in the Arkansas Primary Election and get paid training. The Arkansas Primary Election is May 18.

One more final exam left. I hope I can get parking. I was 30 minutes early to final exam on Wednesday and ended up being late to class because of bad parking.

Hopefully, everybody will be cleared out by tomorrow so I won't have problems with parking; only 1 more test left for that day; of course, that doesn't mean squat.

Warpmind> <<But DAMN, that Zatoichi movie is cool>>: Blind swordsmen/masseusses are just cool in general.
<<Cow jokes. Didn't we have these, like, three years ago?>>: I think we did the originals, but not ones based on locals.
<<I think that'd violate international treaties, dude>>: But that's half the fun.

Fire Storm> <<Dead room this week>>: I know, it's not fair to Warpmind.
<<Yes we do! Tentacle demon scat porn>>: Alright then, I don't want to know. Scat just doesn't do it for me.
<<It will be the greatest orgy of all time, but it won't be interesting>>: I can see it now: You're doing someone, I can't convince anyone to join me, so I'm doing myself. "Oh, hello," "Right, hello there," "Carry on."
<<Do not taunt pornography>>: Do not try scenes 7 through 34, mod 3 at home.
<<and what sort of precedence would that set?>>: One that'll get you a raise if you put on some clothes and leave this office now.
<<I am booked solid though the first week of June... how's your schedule look then?>>: Sorry, that's when the orgy starts. How about after?
<<We can't let those who have placed bets manipulate the results>>: I thought contestants couldn't place bets.
<<But the best part of slug tailors is that it is fun to give them salt afterwards>>: Only a little if they do a good job.
<<AND she cannot be paid for said act>>: Even if she agrees to take payment in the form of bacon?
<<It's pining in the fjords!>>: Bea-utiful plumage.
<<AND having him move in with us before the wedding>>: Are you at least charging him rent?
<<LM's grandfather died. A week ago. And no one told us>>: That's just not good. The dieing is bad enough, but not being told? My condolences, anyway.

<I think I can schedule you in for a wednesday.>
Hmm... no, no. Just won't due. Let's see... Hmm... Well, I am booked solid though the first week of June... how's your schedule look then?

Oh yes. We can't let those who have placed bets manipulate the results!

<Gunjack can find a girl for DPH and Lain can find one for Gside>
Now, given that this is Vegas, we MUST include the stipulation that said girl MUST be female (genetically), AND she cannot be paid for said act. She must be willing to take one for the team, so to speak.

Wedding stuff: Everything was going so well... well, aside from having to bail LM's father out financially, getting a loan to cover that, AND having him move in with us before the wedding...
Then we found out that LM's grandfather died. A week ago. And no one told us.

Anon> <<someone would INVADE your PERSONAL PRIVACY like that>>: I'm sensing some hostility here.

Z> <<Equally unsure of what that meant>>: Warpmind used to post here for quite some time, and last week Lain happened to mention him. And then he magically appears as if called.
<<Anyone else think that it's a bit strange for someone to post anonymously about something like that?>>: From an IP very close to where they live, so soon after mentioning a stalking, and implying that she commited a similar slight. Why, gee, no, it must be a coincidence. That last sentence was sarcastic, by the way.

Brutis> <<when did the jokes on cows come into play>>: There's a set of jokes (of the type usually spread by email forwarding) that compares and contrasts political systems by what they would do with cows. Green Baron recently posted that (for the second or so time, if I remember), and Ed had the bright idea to compare and contrast CR regulars by what they would do with cows.

I'm guessing that's some sort of inside joke or encoded message to someone. At least I would hope that's the case.

<look, i found him!>

Equally unsure of what that meant.

DPH - <which is more important: studying for a semester test that is tomorrow or mowing the yard, especially when next week one wouldn't have to worry about college interferring with time to mow?>

Which is more important: studying for a semester test that is tomorrow or posting in a comment room, especially when next week one wouldn't have to worry about a semester test interferring with time to post in a comment room? Just a thought...

Besides, if the semester test is so important, as you are undoubtedly implying, then you probably should have studied before the final day before the test.

This is a public forum, accessible to anyone, anywhere, at any time. Posting here is like talking on a street corner. There is no reasonable expectation of privacy, so having something you've said "overheard" can't be considered an invasion of privacy, either.

Lain - If someone is seriously stalking you - as in lurking in the bushes outside your home, sending you unwanted mail, making unwanted phone calls, etc. - I would strongly suggest you contact law enforcement.

Just thought it was about time for me to drop in and say hi and just wish everyone a great week! Long time no see, how's everyone been?

It's good to still see a few familiar faces in here. Awesome. :) Of course, after going back and glancing at the earlier days of the CR in the archives, I miss those times somewhat ... ah well. ;)

Congratulations to everyone finishing up school in the next few weeks! Anyone else graduating after this semester? My thoughts are with all of you. :)

Basically, my short, quick, painless update (hopefully) ... I'm graduating in about two and a half weeks with my degree in Mechanical Engineering, which I'm quite proud of. In the meantime, I've been arranging for my big move ... I've been hired by General Motors to design engines! Woo hoo! **does a happy dance** The only strange part ... it's in New York! And I'm a born and raised Arizonan! So ... I'm having to move a looooooooong way from my desert home, and it'll be especially fun to experience my first real winter ... that's meant in a pretty sarcastic way, believe me .... :)

So yeah, that's about it with me for now ... besides starting to pack up my stuff and realizing I have a *lot* more stuff than I realized ... :)

Take care, everyone! I'll be lurking around here now and then until I leave for New York. New York or bust, right? :)

I did hear there is a bid for Vegas, or the Conspiracy couple can conspire to get them laid. Gunjack can find a girl for DPH and Lain can find one for Gside :)

Gside> <<Don't forget the video game industry.>> I remember. Emotions are a dangerous cancer.

And Oklahoma City was exploited to take a swipe at anti-Government right-wing talk radio.

DPH> <<So you're saying that my moral resolve is that strong and I'll be the last virigin in the cr?>> Yeah, sure ;)

Lain> <<yeah, that is kinda depressing. way to get peoples trust GW.. :P>> And yet he gained in the polls over the weekend....well his opponents are a two-faced douchebag (can I say that) and a deranged washed up cult hero form the 60s......you might as well throw in Lucien Bouchard to this peanut gallery, or VOTE FOR NOLAN!!!

Poor Gunjack. He may have to pick one of those crappy candidates running for President. You can just vote for your MP in London-North, the Freedom Party seems the ebst of the bunch, though they don't have a prayer.

<<um.. yes. except i think he was being more of a jerk about it :P >> Yep...you're right...you can definietly claim to be telling the truth there ;)

Hellcat> <<I hope you like it. I’m odd aren’t I?>> You're not odd at all ::kisses:: It's just funny as Ayn Rand and Christopher Hitchens ave widely different philosophies, but I like both :)

Bud-Clare>> <<Eh, it's a big country. >> About the size of California. Of course if there were no WMD, then there was no need for the immoral Containment policy during the decade of false peace and the UN couldn't have made its fortune through the Oil for Palaces scam, or Tota Fina Elf either.

Whitbourne> <<Then again, the ignorant people from high school are all home on the Island unemployed, so there you go.>> So I guess that can be applied to Newfoundland and PEI. And if you live there you get to subsidize those same jerks who mocked you in HS. Talk about crappy.

Joe Tillman> Since I am completely ignorant about sports, this is the first I heard about him. It is impressive that he gave up a lot of money to put his life on teh line, and he didn't choose a safe easy desk job like I did, but he chose to be an Airborne Ranger, a life filled with a whole lot of danger. The Rangers are some of the toughest sodliers out there, right up there with Green Berets and Delta Force, so he knew the risks and put himself in a position where death is more likely to greet him, so I wouldn't say he died in vain. Even if I go to Iraq, I am more than likely to survive as I am Finance soldier, and I probably deserve to go since I supported the war...soemtimes I think I deserve to meet the same fate as others have for that reason.

Ed> I include more

Pistoff

You have two cows. They pull jokes on you so you get really pissed off and make fanfics about horribly killing them. Then you do horrible things to them in your journal as well hoping for reactions, and then disavowing teh fandom when you get them.

Reverend Attila
You sexually harrass the cows, which is found to be cute since you're a neutered cat.

Green Baron
The cows are part of an ancestral legacy atatched to a farm, but you ahte family farms, so you sell it all to a large agricultural multinational corporation, and live on the interest from the sale.

Vinnie
You use the milk from the cows to make cream so you can use your cream pie gun at the CR

Bud-Clare
You have two cows. You find them preferrable to your roomates, and you also make certain they are purely dairy cows and will die of old age.

Z> <<I can somewhat relate to what you are saying, though. I can never understand why people get all excited when they get the opportunity to see President Bush in person or something like that. To me, he's just another guy. I don't place him or most other famous people on a pedastal above everyone else.>> Well, as a soldier being visited by the Commander in Chief is neat, but I would hate all the stress such a VIP visit would cause and all the annoying details I'd have to do.

Now, in Kosovo Drew Carey visited and I had dinner with him (as well as a lot of other soldiers), which was neat as he gave up a Thanksgiving to entertatin the troops. There are a few other folsk I'd want to meet, but also a lot I would avoid like Michael Moore or Kofi Anaan, or Ralph Nader.

I imagien you have your preferences, and you aren't bound by any courtesies like I am.

Spacebabie> I don't think Frank J did a Know They Enemy segment on PETA or Billary....

I stand corrected:

Know Thy Enemy: PETA

PETA is an annoying bunch, now trying to put the Colonel out of business by giving kids buckets of blood. Evil people scaring kids and trying to put Colonels out of business! I'm going to sic my crack research staff on them!

FUN FACTS ABOUT PETA

* PETA is an acronym that stands for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, but, when wrapped around sliced roasted lamb, they're called GYRO, but I don't know what that stands for.

* They think that animals, things that care not for Christian values and claw and bite with no sense of morality, should be treated "ethically". That's because they're hippies.

* PETA is against all testing on animals. If they had to choose between curing a sick child and saving an evil feces-flinging monkey, they'll choose the demon-spawn simian every time (I mean the monkey). Hey, if God didn't want us experimenting on monkeys, then exactly what the hell did He make them for?

* Many members of PETA like animals more than people, but, ironically, it's a scientifically proven fact that most animals hate hippies.

* Though they don't like KFC's method of killing chickens, their suggested replacement of having each chicken individually strangled with piano wire by a trained assassin is simply not cost effective.

* They think people should be vegetarians, even though plenty of animals eat nothing but meat. Atkins dieters, every one of them.

* I used to tease my dog. I bet PETA wouldn't like it, but my dog didn't too... and she was stupid. So there.

* They complain about how veal calves are kept from moving their entire lives, but have yet to prove they would move if given a choice. Cows are lazy.

* PETA had championed eating whales since less whales would have to be killed to feed the same number of people than chickens. That's crazy. Ever try raising whales on a farm? They really don't get along well with the horses.

* They want to end the game of chinchilla football, and I don't want to live in that world.

* Has sued ACME for perpetuating animal against animal violence.

* When it was revealed that Rudy Giuliani had prostate cancer, PETA exploited that to put up ads saying that milk gave it to him. That's ridiculous. Babies drink nothing but milk and have some of the lowest instances of prostate cancer.

* They claimed that Jesus was a vegetarian even though in the seventh station of the cross Jesus pauses to enjoy a hamburger.

* PETA has had links with the eco-terrorist group ELF, know for having the gayest name of all terrorist groups.

* If surrounded by violent PETA activists, just hold a gun to a kitten's head until they back off.

* In a battle between Aquaman and PETA, Aquaman would be fined for disturbing the peace of fish. Unable to pay the fine, Aquaman would have to serve jail time, and you know someone like him just isn't going to last in jail. Poor Aquaman.

* It would be funny to teach a parrot to say, "PETA is a bunch of stupid hippies!" and then abuse it so PETA has to take him in. Then again, it would be hard to abuse something that spoke such truth.

Know Thy Enemy: Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton has a book out! I know all of you must be racing to not read it, but I'll save you the trouble and not read it for you. Here's what I didn't find out from the book:

* Exactly how many people she estimated her universal health plan would kill.

* That Chelsea Clinton was played by a child actor.

* Whether she shot Vince Foster execution style or gangsta style.

* What are the exact details of her pact with Satan.

* How entrenched into our government is her lesbian conspiracy.

* Whether her banshee-like scream can cause people's heads to explode just like if she were a Scanner.

* Whether regular bullets can kill her or do you need to use silver ones.

* That every time she lies, her thighs grow larger.

* How many genetic scientists did she kidnap to make flying monkeys for her.

* For what purpose does she like to drink the blood of small children.

* Who would win in a fight between her and Aquaman.

* That the only thing that actually surprised her when she heard about the Monica Lewinksy affair is that her husband had relations with a "dirty Jew".

* She's not a natural blond.

Well, you got both.. Frank J rules..and human shields drool :)

And now I'm off.

DPH - <For practical purposes, I prefer the rules that the Gargoyles universe has.>

I agree that, for practical purposes, the past should probably be immutable. My primary beefs (pun intended in light of the recent cow jokes) are two-fold and lie elsewhere in the details of time travel , but I shan't delve into them because it is a debate that has been discussed countless times before.

Green Baron and Ed -

Well done :)

Fire Storm - <And here I am completely not caring and thinking that all the flags at half-staff in my area are a complete waste of time for a football player that died in the war. Big woop.>

As Gunjack mentioned, his death is hyped, not just because he was a great athlete who had played on a national stage, but also because he sacrificed a much easier life than most people who go off to fight. He had it made and was willing to give that up.

I can somewhat relate to what you are saying, though. I can never understand why people get all excited when they get the opportunity to see President Bush in person or something like that. To me, he's just another guy. I don't place him or most other famous people on a pedastal above everyone else.

Spacebabie - <Hugh Jackman looks like Vampire Hunter>

Well, a good friend of mine informed me that Hugh Jackman was starring in a very twisted, homoerotic play that he went to see recently on Broadway. I can't remember what the name of the play was though. Perhaps someone can help me out on that. It'll be kind of awkward any time I see Jackman in another movie thanks to the vivid descriptions I received from this friend. Apparently they did everything but get naked on stage. From what I've heard, this tasteless role could potentially cost Jackman in the consideration for the lead role in the next Bond movie. Who would have thought that Wolverine is also a ballet dancer and a gratuitously active homosexual on stage? Certainly not me.


As long as we're talking movies, I recommend seeing "Man on Fire". First movie I've seen in a couple months, and it was definitely a good one. I'm not one of those Denzel fanatics, but I don't think that there are too many actors who could play that role as well as he did.

As a mini-tribute to Denzel, I depart with this quote:
"Screw that. When I'm old enough, I'm legally changing my name to 'Joe Kickass.'" -Bart Simpson

Heh heh, I've got Doug's cows. Robby actually wrote this up in an IM with me last night. I figured he wouldn't mind me posting this.

Doug- You have two cows with an amazing sex life, who have a dozen cow friends with unique and amazing abilities and that are part of a biker gang. Or, so it seems when in fact...

Heh heh, I love that.

Greg Weisman- He has two cows. But who are his cows future mates, and what did one whisper to the other? All things are true. But one thing we do know for sure is that these cows have a remarkable memory of the things they ate last month.

Gside> Aw, your poor cows ;)

And on that note, I had a cheeseburger for lunch ;)

What am I doing…checking up on my resume, working on some gift art for Christine, updating my footnotes and characters pages again and then I will edit my timeline.

On the sad news Perdita had a few more seizures yesterday.

Last night my brother stopped by and I showed him those spiders.

My mom is getting a chest x-ray done today. She’s been suffering from the Bronchitis

Replies:

Ed>>>Frikken hilarious.

I’ll do Todd’s cows

Todd’s Cows>>> Todd’s Cows do not exist they are a front for another group of Cows. They are really female or they are several cows belonging to several different people, or they are really Greg Weismans cows…or they are a bunch of cats.



Vinnie<<<Whether they really have faith>>> From what I could see they have as much faith as my Salvationist grandparents.

Lynati<<<And it also validates her own reaction- she might have been wrong about you, but she obviously wasn't>>>Bud Clarie is psychic? 0_o! Seriously I agree if Joe’s second response was “Sorry if I wounded like a spammer, but you don’t have to that mean” then yeah we would of asked BC to be a wee bit nicer to the newbies. <<<She talks about them all the time, but nobody has ever seen the cows in public>>>ROFL

Lain<<<helsing looks like it coule be either really cool or really stupid, im not sure which.
>>>I‘ll probably watch it for the vampire killing goodness…that and Hugh Jackman looks like Vampire Hunter D.<<<im really afraid theyre going to change her back into a human which would just.. wreck the whole point.>>>I thought turning her into an ogre in the first place wrecked the whole point. At least Donkey and the dragon didn‘t change species.>>>king arthur? i havent heard of that, do you have a link to a trailer or something?>>>I’ll try to find something…I think the magazine might still be out. The picture of Guinever looks awesome. She has a tribal tattoo on her arm.
<<<im a very bad canadian. i dont like hockey OR beer>>>I’m a bad Texan. I don’t like Football or beer.

Green Baron>>>Speaking of Hillary and PETA are there any know they enemies of them?

Firestorm<<<I will be glad when I don't have to see previews for the next episode of that show.>>>Then the week after you can watch Darth Bobo and his light saber.

Christine>>> Where’s the white of your text?
