  1. Well that was an interesting session...all aboard the fail boat!
  2. Daylight savings time...I'll just show up early I guess.

Shows how much I pay attention, I guess. That's one reason, but the economy is so complex that there's no way people are going to agree on the cause of a collapse. Heck, there's no consensus among economists on whether FDR's policies helped or hindered the Great Depression.
  5. I live in an urban area, although it's not a huge city, hence why it styles itself as "The Biggest Little City in the World." When I'm not in school I live in a rural town. I prefer urban mostly because of the size and things to do; however, urban areas tend to have much worse air quality and not as many bike trails.
  6. Well, that's still 100 miles shy of Mystic. On the other hand, it's Mauritius!
  7. I am going to be studying, but that's okay: I don't like costumes.

  9. I live in a college dorm, so my internet speed can vary quite a bit. I would imagine this speed represents the average. (Kind of odd how there is a server for this in Auburn but not Reno.)

Yes, Im that awesome. Not to mention somehow flying a plane at an altitude higher than that of the Hubble Space Telescope.
  11. I remember background music in Exile: Escape from the pit but not in Exile II. Did it always have background music? Maybe I turned it off when I played it.
  12. I think we have learned that I mostly use the metric system. Heck, my water bottle is marked in mL.
  13. Meh, people with diabetes drink because they are thirsty and have to urinate frequently, and I have always drunk a lot of water, so if it is a health problem it's not diabetes. Edit: Oh wait, a gallon is 128 oz., not 64, so 3/4 of a gallon is more accurate.
  14. Originally Posted By: Trenton the dragon lord Im hooked on the monster energy drink... Thats my favorite, however my mother never lets me have it >.> Someone needs to tone down the sugar. I mostly drink water--over 1.5 gallons a day (no joke). I also drink orange juice and coffee.
  15. Most of what I cook comes from basic recipes, but I have made my own methods for eggs and salmon. Cheesy, fluffy, spicy scrambled eggs: Get a blender and mix the following at a high speed: 6 eggs 2 cups grated Tillamook sharp cheddar cheese (depending on desired cheesiness) 1 cup milk ~20 drops Tabasco sauce Some parsley flakes 1 pinch ginger 1 pinch paprika Grease pan with butter. Pour eggs and cook on medium heat. Let sit for three or four minutes until solid egg start to form. Continue to stir and scramble for about ten to fifteen minutes until eggs are lightly browned and dry. Eat with salt and pepper. (Because I now have to limit dairy in my diet, I usually just have plain scrambled eggs.) ----- Simmered Salmon Filet with garnish: Get suitable cookware for simmering with a lid. Wash off salmon and fill cookware with water so that the salmon is just submerged. Add peppercorn, lemon juice, some Mrs. Dash or similar seasoning, bay leaves, and plenty of onion (I love onion). Put the lid on and heat at a temperature just below the boiling point of water for 15-20 minutes or until cooked. While that's cooking make some garnish. Get a very small container and add 1-2 tablespoons of mustard. Then mix in the following. Red Wine Vinegar Olive Oil Oregano Strained garlic (or garlic salt) Hint of lime juice The amount varies on taste, but it should be over 3/4 mustard while having a fairly strong vinegar smell. Once the salmon is done take off the skin and dry off the filet with a paper towel. Apply the garnish and serve on a bed of fresh, raw spinach. The garnish also works well as a light dressing for the spinach. I really love the aroma from the process.

  17. I always hate it when the world ends on a Friday!

  19. Respond with different sets of numbers until he leads you farther into the grove (ie. 1234). I never found a pattern to the responses but I would't be surprised if there is one. Edit: Well I guess I've been majorly sniped.
  20. Melee has a better damage output than archery, so you might want to look into that. What skills are you spending your skill points on?
  21. Media outlets are referring to the protests as the "TEA Party of the left." Yet, there is a big difference between the two: the TEA Party is mostly middle class and older, and they managed to get some really conservative candidates nominated. From what I've seen, the Occupy Wall Street movement is younger and poorer, which means they'll be less likely to vote and less familiar with the whole election process. I don't think the movement will make much of a difference a year from now (the presidential election especially).
