what do you choose most?
I find DS more interesting but I tend to go LS more often for character/NPC interaction reasons.

Favorite jedi conversions
Disciple over Atton this time just because....well, typically he was a slightly better melee fighter than Atton.

What Are You Reading?
Insomnia & Desperation by Stephen King. Not very good but anything works in a power outtage pinch. Last week I was re-reading One Day At Teton Marsh by Sally Carrighar. Old book with a bunch of interconnected short tales told from various animals points of view.

Why are starfighters always manned?
There's no emotional-tugging human drama in wondering if a machine is going to survive a battle or not. At least I'd assume that's the exec's reasoning.

Animal abuse on rise
I'd tend to agree with Steve's post on the main causes for the rise in figures. And if there is an actual small rise, the reasons could be...well I don't really have an answer for that beyond the usual 'humans are violently repressed' for lots of reasons sort of stuff. Some take it out on animals because they think doing so is 'safe/ok' cause they're not human.

What are you thinking?
I'm thinking about how frustrating it is keep that bit o' extra weight off as I get older. I've also been thinking about my father again, which I tend to do whenever I see a picture of Christopher Reeve post-riding accident. Plus my husband looks really cute with greying temples.

Pictures of your Games: Revolutions
That review makes me wonder if it really does feel like The Summoner. I liked that game. This goes on my 'check it out someday' list. Thanks.
-
What are you playing now?
I liked Stronghold Crusader better than Stronghold2 - I think the old did better at skirmish/siege maps - but it's a still a good game. Some of the camera angle stuff is a bit awkward and archers are (still) way overpowered but...building the defenses is a lot of fun.

Haven't played in over a year. HUD seems too big.
It's fine for me too. They'll stay pretty big relative to the rest of the screen, however - they don't get miniscule w/more resolution. Still, if they're really huge, that would seem unusual to me. Maybe attach a screenshot?

Finally, Launchie has a shot...
TVGuide gave the Hoff a Jeer for being mean on America's Most Talented. Maybe this explains his videos...

What are you thinking?
I'm thinking about how I need to clean out the fridge, toss away some stuff, and replace it all again. And about what to have for dinner. My life is so mundane. :D

Movies You Have Seen Lately
I absolutely loved Fargo; I love W.H. Macy plus I found it hilarious. I didn't 'understand' the humor in Raising Arizona at all, despite having a friend who loved the movie try to explain it to me. It was just a really weird, off the wall movie that kinda bored me...

On My LifeDrive
MultiiMedia is so vague. I hate vagueness. :D Sounds like it would likely work tho. Thanks, I'll look into it more.

Most beautiful girl in K1/K2
I think Bastilla wins in this round.

On My LifeDrive
The website mentions it as a potential 'camera companion' which interested me at first. I wouldn't mind a device that allowed me to download/view stuff off my memory card on a bigger screen than what's on my camera, w/out needing a bulky laptop with me. The screen doesn't sound too much bigger tho. My camera uses CompactFlash cards not SD, can the expansion slot use those?

Dreams!
I used to dream a lot. Now it's fairly infrequent. But when I do dream, they're pretty wacky. Or gross. Often recurring themes, usually stress related. :D

Americans too fat for X-rays
My experience with Oregon is that it's a haven for motorhomes. The coast is pretty tho. Re: the article - well...I really don't have much to say on that one. I guess they'll have to make larger MRI machines and eventually give the costs to the patient/consumer, as usual. I don't personally see the inactivity/poundage issue decreasing anytime soon, in the US or anywhere else having the 'problem'.

What is the temperature where you live?
Power went out again in the middle of writing a post, earlier. But this time, with the darkening came the Trucks. The people gathered round this vehicle of the Power-Gods to watch the Power-Angels as they made a big hole in the ground. After a lot of chatter, struggle, and shifting of more dirt with handheld shovels, they finally lowered a large, magical grey cube into the hole. And lo, there was power, and it was good. And it's 63F at 2am and that is also good. :D
