I have pictures far worse. Trust me. Here is one that one that won't burn your eyes.

Nazi members still remain in Europe, though they have to hide. On September 11th, they showed footage of Palestine, where children were dancing in the streets and saying "God loves us because he kills the Americans!" It's a pretty distubing sentiment. Racism is everywhere.

Lincoln, NE (50-60 miles from me) is supposed to be the international headquarters for the Neo-Nazi party. I've spent a lot of time there, but never once actually run into anyone expressing any anti-semitism. Talking online, I have run into atleast 20 or 30 Europeans expressing anti-semtic comments. I travel this country quite a bit, and I have yet to personally meet an anti-semite in the US. They're here. I'm sure they are. People in the US seem to be racist more so towards Blacks living in poor, inner-city neighborhoods. Rich Blacks are part of a different caste. And people seem to have hatred for illegal Mexican immigrants, and assume all Mexicans are illegal immigrants. So I see racism in the US. I just haven't personally seen any anti-semitism.

If you look closely, you can see the monkey is flaccid, so it's not a sexual thing.

Luckily Sarah is tied down or she would try to kick my ass.

Bethesda also makes racing games, but in house development is mainly RPGs.

Well, considering I have friends in Isreal, and I know tons of Jews and I've never met a racist Jew in my life, I think 50% is a stretch. And no, the Jews didn't kick anyone out of Isreal. After the Jews were kicked out of Isreal and made slaves, they were dragged into Europe where genocide was practiced on them, and their homes were removed. After the Jews had all their homes and wealth stripped away, the UN had to find a new home for them, and the United Nations decreed Isreal would have to be shared by Palestine and the Jews. Since then, terrorists kill Isreali civilians almost every single day, for 30 years and no one in the world seems to care due to anti-semitism.

Sadly you can only be nominated once per year for the Oscar race. Will they be nominated for War of the Worlds or Episode 3? King Kong will probably get WETA a nod as well.

Accordians make people happy, especially polka music. This is a happy monkey. Look at the feces he threw on the wall, and look at the...

When I'm in bed with a woman, I usually guess which name to call out. Most times I guess my wife's name.

How many true RPG houses are there anymore?

I am really shocked it took that long to get a response. I love that pic. Her smile is priceless. And just in case people are wondering, that is a goat.

ILM might compete against ILM for best special effects in the Oscar race this year.

I agree. It gets me how much anti-semitism I see in Europe, and I've never understood why. I understand the hatred on both sides of the Palestinean/Isreali conflict, but why do Europeans hate Jews so much? Is it possible remenants from Jews being rich and controlling banks? Possibly. Either way, the hatred of any race isn't cool in my book.

There are leftist fundamentists in every religion. Bin Laden represents a Muslim leftist who is full of hated. Fred Phelps represents a leftist Christian who is full of hatred. I dated a Jew for 18 months. Her father was a Rabbi who oddly enough eventually accepted Jesus and became shunned by his old crowd. He became a Messianic Jew. If you assume all Jews are racist, that would make you a racist yourself. The teachings of Judaism are of acceptance. Genesis mentions that if you have a fight with your brother (and all people are your brother) then you must resolve this conflict before you can come before God.

ILM spent over 2 years doing post-production on Episode 3, and 2 months on War of the Worlds. Episode 3 was incredibly detailed, but War of the Worlds doesn't look like CGI. It looked like the Tripods were there and captured on film. Part of that is what they did in the original Matrix, where many of the shots were very dark, and we imagine the effects are more realistic that way. It covers up quick and cheap effects budgets.

I'm glad to see this discussion is remaining primarily civil.

T.O.M.B.S. is a difficult game. Only Volourn can master it!

http://www.blizzard.com/blizzclassic/ You would be correct.

No, FF6 came out before Arcanum. I think Square has been shooting for a setting like the one Arcanum had, with a gritty mix of magic and technology. However, in every FF setting, magic trumps technology which proves to be evil and useless. Arcanum was a setting in an industrial revolution where magic was seen as the force holding back industrial growth. Neither side was presented as right, or more powerful in the world. While the FF settings seemed silly, the world or Arcanum was more fleshed out, and much more immersive.

Sadly, for the most part you are right. Though that's partially why I respect Jews so much as they encourage the study of science. They are scholars who don't try to convert the world to make money. They discourage converts. They are only interested in intelligent people who truly believe in Judaism.

Arcanum had a great setting. I think it's what Squaresoft has been shooting for since FFVI.

I purchased all nine seasons of the X-Files for $70 plus shipping. I think it cost me just over $100. But, it's wrong! Don't do as I do! Do as I say!

As a former US Marine, I can assure you that most Marines I've met have a MUCH HIGHER moral standard than your average citizen. Marines don't randomly go around raping people. However, given the millions of people who have passed through the core over the years, we do get bad apples. The only story since Viet Nam where a Marine was found guilty of raping someone in a foreign country was in Japan a few years back. People love to talk about the "puppet" governments we create. If we have all these "puppet" governments, then why aren't these governments giving us their money? Why do these governments have anti-US policies? Last time I checked, in the 80's Saddam was seen as a US puppet. That surely proved to be the case. We don't have puppets. We don't control other countries. We have partaken in some regime changes that maybe we shouldn't have. However, in most cases there was a preexisting civil conflict where a leader was being ousted by the people of a nation and we merely assisted to keep casualties down. God forbid we attempt to protect foreign lives with our own.

I don't know the planets from the Clone Wars cartoon because I've yet to watch it, but I used to be totally down with the EU. I read tons of novels and comics.
