I want teh kotor 3 Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 In the past I have justified continued existence by the hope of Mass Effect 3. Once that comes out... Well I'm sure by then there will be another game that I can put my dreams into. Same here. In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum. R.I.P.

Gorth Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Things that get me out of bed... Sore neck muscles during crunch time The realisation that you are late for a plane at the airport Sunday morning boredom Work Having a lot of fun with the OCBA (Thats the governments 'Office of Consumer and Business affairs') here in South Australia. Moving to Brisbane and expected to get my tenancy security bond back from the place I rented here. Turns out that some office clerk has decided to spice up his salary by embezzling the funds placed in their trust. Instead of doing the expected electronic funds transfer to my account, he decided that it wasn't possible (with some rather spurious claims) and issued a cheque. Guess what, he never sent the cheque, yet it was cashed in by "somebody, somewhere". He claims to have called me and I should have instructed him to divert the money (without any paperwork or signing any forms) to some address halfway out in the outback (where the cheque was cashed in). Doesn't take a genius to figure out what happened, he issued it to himself. Decided to Sic both the Ombudsman and the police on them... Ah well, it's only a few thousand dollars, but they are MY dollars dammit.

Walsingham Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 After an unsuccessful search for the hot women I indulged in a hour of hoofing up and down the hill. I feel pretty goddamn great, and am hoping I can keep this level up for a while. One hour a day should put me on a definite uphill (no pun intended) curve health and fitness wise. According to the internets one hour burns about 470 calories which is great. For now I'm increasing my intake to make up the additional expenditure to make sure I put on the necessary muscle. But once I've been going for a couple more weeks I'll try to reduce to what I was eating last month and see the weight fall off.* My longer term goal is to increase both duration and speed of ascent so I'm jogging up, and proceeding down in the same slow careful fashion to avoid jarring my spine. Two hours a day and I should be one of those tiresomely spry old men one sees trotting about. *terms and conditions apply. My intake of beer may go up as well as down. "It wasn't lies.

Tale Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I'm reminded of that one episode of friends where Chandler tries to leave the gym. Did you have to sit down with someone that kept trying to offer you new deals while you yelled "I WANNA QUIT THE CHURCH!" "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Gorgon Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 In case anyone cares, here churches are on the government tit. Financing comes through a special tax, less than one percent , which you CAN opt out of, it takes writing a formal letter declaring your wish no to belong to the Church of Denmark. Few bother, and hence there is money to hire priests and upkeep of churches. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

Enoch Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 (edited) Im interested in your "church tax". In Christian churches here in the states the tithe is expected to be 10% of your income but its "voluntary" (not really, you are expected to give). Is it the same sort of system there? kir or one of the other Scandies can probably answer better, but as I understand it, the answer is no. In some European (mostly Scandinavian) countries, where the governments are largely the heirs of the winners of various 16th-19th Century religious wars, there are established churches ("established" in the same sense as the "Establishment Clause" of the U.S. 1st Amendment), funded by dedicated taxes collected by the state. (The churches also sometimes perform duties that we would normally think of as governmental, like keeping and maintaining some official records.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_tax Edited March 25, 2011 by Enoch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I just read a story about a pastor who was run out of his church because he was using quotes from Ghandi. Someone went a bit nuts and said 'newsflash: Ghandi's in hell' and apparently the congregation sided with the nutcase and not the pastor. It just amazes me how popular the fire and brimstone churches still are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
