Since the original intent/topic of the post has been "redacted" and thus there's no purpose/debate to be gained, I think this thread can be closed.

It wasn't a force 11 storm, but we did have enough gusting wind last night to knock out the power around 930pm. Got pretty bangbang noisy at times...I was envisioning people's Halloween lawn deco flying around from yard to yard... Didn't feel like reading by candlelight or staring at a wall, so I/we went to bed.

As a being within humanity, Moore is not alone in this habit.

Chinese food, a nap, catch the end of the ballgame (just don't feel like watching the whole thing tonight) and then I may curl up with a book. Current mood: ok - not great, but ok.

@kgambit - my "gurl" comment wasn't a direct note to you. It's my sometimes standard disclaimer that I'm making an emotional opinion vs. a logical one. Living with a slightly more humanistic Spock, it's become rather a habit to preface opinions that way. As I tried to say, I take no issue with the call being technically correct, so you can stop trying to convince me how it was the correct call, as if I said it wasn't, which I didn't. I also already said I blame Salty more than anything, not to mention other things in the full game. As you stated, by the pure rulebook, intent does not matter. All I'm saying is that applying such a black/white to a rule in a game where people are making split second emotional/physical decisions and can't always help having some contact or whatever, is rather absurd. Sometimes stuff happens that shouldn't, imo, be ruled by black/white rulings. Should be more like a judgement call rule or something, perhaps. Also, there's this:

Daylight savings in autumn only makes me go "dang, only 5pm? It's bloody full-on dark already." Not that I mind the dark. I'm just easily time-confused.

But will there be lolcats? That's almost as important as a pony. ....I don't think I've heard anything about P.E. to this date that severely disappoints me or anything. There's a few mechanics-stuff that makes me go "hmm, that's different", but mostly because I can't try it out yet. Maybe it's not as different as it sounds on paper, if you know what I mean. Lots of things in life have made me go "hmm" and then turn out to by my new favorite thing.

The thought of stalking the Obs crew if I went down there never crossed my mind. Never, I say.

Note..."Honest Trailers" assumes you've seen the show/movie in question. eg, spoilery is involved.

Woke up, felt fine, stood up, and suddenly my throat was on fire. I guess some acid reflux was sitting in my upper throat/near the windpipe as I slept and standing up made it move around and made me notice. Coughed for 15 minutes, tears streaming from my eyes. Not fun. Seemed weird. Sometimes I get a tiny bit of the acid burp after a meal etc, but nothing like that, before. Going out with some friends in a bit. Might have an opportunity/reason to visit Orange Co. next month. Not sure if I will ... but I haven't been in that area for a long time. Might be fun.

Well, pardon me for being a gurl or something and thinking the rule itself is stupid. A lot of rules in life and games are often stupid. I was not arguing whether the rule was technically wrong regarding how the rule is currently written. But I would rather, on the rare times such types of obstruction occur, that they put everyone back where they were and just re-do the whole at bat. I'd want it even if it was reversed and STL was the one who would have lost with such a call. And I don't think it's the same thing as a batter being hit by a pitch.

Hubby managed to get enough achievement "points" finished in BL2 to reset the BA ranks on one character. It's a lot of work...the amount you have to get to 4 or 5 is pretty insane. He just wanted to see what it entailed. Me, I think it's easier to just start a new chr., rush 'em to Sanctuary, give them cash and do the stupid easy stuff (like buying the 'item of the day' from machines) then repeat, if you just want more BA ranks.

White House Down. I liked it quite a bit better than Olympus Has Fallen. Quite a bit. The action did get silly over the top towards the end (the car lawn chase in particular) but overall ... much better.

*cusscusscusscuss* Man I thought they'd pulled off this awesome play and then ... obstruction? wtf? Sigh. I've seen that type of call before. I personally think if it seems unintentional it shouldn't be obstruction. What a load of bull. But I can't really blame that...since imo I think Salty shouldn't have gone for 3rd in the first place. Tie game like that...play it safer. Oh well. They better kick butt tomorrow.

It took me a while to realize where I'd seen the guy who's playing Sulu, before. omg, that made me laugh. ...I dunno...the sets/sounds are good, some of the actors mannerisms are quite good (Kirk's tilting of the head and bemused expression while sitting in the chair, stuff like that) and many other tiny touches feel a lot like the old series. But I just ... can't get used to someone else's face/voice in those roles. It's one thing to make a totally new CGI/effects film ala the new ST movies, but I mean different people on the ST:OS bridge/sets. I keep waiting for the SNL punchline or something.

The scenery pics are funky-cool, but the giant squiggly character stat meter GUI kinda ruins it for me.

I've been playing nothing this week...going to play a couple hours of BL2 with the spouse tonight tho, then hit the sack. One day we will reach lvl72 with our co-op pair....

*thinks about it* ...I think you'd be great as a new Shane type character. We should petition the show for it! I still like Daryl, the bow guy, and the vet/doc old man, but yea...the current crop of chrs. don't pop for me, mostly.

(One profanity at the end. Just sayin'...) Having seen the Oz movie not too long ago...I lol'd.

Does Rikki Tikki Tavi count as a movie, or a TV show? At any rate, I watched this again for the first time in ages and ages. I remember loving it (and the story) as a kid. As I watched it, however, I started to frown because my memory of it and what I was actually seeing did not jibe at all. It's still great, don't get me wrong, but man...I know time blurs things, but it's like even the animation of the cobra fight, and even Rikki's coat color that I remember...it's all wrong. It's weird and makes me slightly sad.

Woldan, the next character on The Walking Dead? ...being an alcohol n00b I've never had anything but that cheaper Bacardi dark rum in my Pepsi. Felt like a few drinks this Friday evening and decided to try another brand. Myers (dark). Sipping a rum/Pepsi of it now, I observe two things: 1--I don't notice anything very different about it as alcohol, except for the price and a stronger/prune-y nose-smell than Bacardi. 2--it's a little too sweet when combined with Pepsi. Oh well. Not like I really care about booze quality. I just wanted one of my rare drinks and was idly curious. A few drinks and I'll put the bottle away until I either want another one a long time from now, or (more likely) hubby will use it up before then.

Saw the first game and that was nice comedy of STL errors for the Redsox to take advantage of. Saw the 2nd half of the 2nd game and that one wasn't so nice. But I didn't really expect to sweep 'em. Some want them to win in 6 so they can get the win in Boston. Not sure if I'll get to watch the next game, but hopefully I can catch a little of it. Go Red Sox!

Agents of Shield, I think I've seen 4 episodes now. The 5th one I meant to watch but went to bed instead. I think if those two "comic relief" scientists were removed, I might like it a tad better. Having some bits of humor between characters etc. is fine, but those two belong in a comedy-sitcom or something. It's ridiculous and for me really overshadows any suspense/drama they try to create the rest of the time.

Utter crap week, with more likely on the horizon. I sleep a lot when not buried in the poop. Unrelated to the above, it's getting colder which means....a new car battery so I don't have to jump start it every week. I swear it wasn't this bad before...makes me wonder if other systems besides the alarm are draining more battery than before. Like the airbag, or even the keyfob system. Maybe one day I'll have it checked out. Maybe.
