I think people can have a best friend and a passionate relationship in their marriage. One must work at it, but it is surely possible to sustain such a thing. Over time it would, of course, take different forms, but friendship isn't destroyed by passion. To excite passion I believe one must think on an intimate level toward his or her significant other. A true best friendship fosters the environment for the emotional side of the relationship: passion. Or maybe this is idealistic garbage. But I believe it, and I believe the results of the efforts are worth working at for the rest of my life with my future wife.

I have no way to defend myself or those I love. I suppose I would pray until the zombies burst into my home, then I'd slit my throat before I changed.

Primitive, but maybe that's just what the zombies aren't expecting.

I haven't been here in a while, so I don't really notice it. But for the record I voted yes, and I think it's great.

rawr.

Or that is quite dumb. I'm at a loss.

Would "bis" work? I think it means to play twice a set of notes that makes sounds. You would use it to change a verb. So the game could be called, "Go bis" or a name like that.

It was nice knowing you, Steve.

Good job.

Jaco Pastorius- Portrait of Tracy

Thank you Samm and Deadly Nightshade. But if you actually read the Bible, there is little open to interpretation when it comes to what Christ represents and thus "who He is" in the Bible. Granted, if you are atheist, agnostic, Jewish or Muslim you will think of Jesus differently, but if you take "the Bible" then you can hardly argue your point to me. Just challenge me my friend. Just challenge me to find loads of evidence to support my claim here. I agree though, if you mean that people can take anything out of context and justify themselves, but if you make a careful exegesis of context and culture then your argument is faulty. Don’t be ridiculous Samm. Everything is “open to interpretation,” but not every interpretation is intellectually honest. If I come from an urban, industrialized area, then when Jesus says, “My yoke is easy,” I’ll say, “What is a yoke and why do I care if it’s easy?” But I’m not an idiot. I know He is talking about because I search out the answer, and I see He is metaphorically speaking of burdens in the motif of his culture’s bucolic lifestyle. One difference between us and those people on the subway is that we are not stupid; we are intellectually honest. Because someone says Merry Christmas does not mean they believe Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. So when you make generalizations about the Bible and what it says and what it meant to the people who it was originally written to, and why it was originally written to them, and what it means to us now, I encourage everyone to be careful. The Jesus of the Bible cannot be construed to be anything you want Him to be if we are going to be honest. I am not talking about the Old Testament law here. Christ is said in the Bible to be the fulfillment of the law, the Old Testament. A lot of stuff seems horrible in the OT, I agree, but that does not stop me from seeking God and trusting in His righteousness. God defines righteousness and He is the Executor of justice, not me. I will not punish people with the sins they committed against me because as Jesus said, "You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.' But I tell you, Do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.'" Matthew 5:37-39.

I think the majority of people just hear junk they think is in the Bible and never really read it themselves. Then they end up making false statements about what Christianity is supposed to be. I understand that Christians do a terrible job living up to what they are supposed to be, but that doesn't mean the Bible is flawed, just the people. So when people think it's okay to beat someone up because they don't celebrate Christ, I find something terribly wrong with their knowledge of who Christ is.

Thank you Pixies. That was enlightening... in more ways than one. Anyway, I agree with Sand and Cant. I am especially disturbed by people who would think, "Your kind killed Jesus so now I should beat you up," when Jesus spoke a message of impartial love and turning the other cheek, even crying out to God to forgive the people who killed him. Idiots.

Oh, oh, I thought of a funny one I've never tried before. I don't want to hype it up. I mean, it's not that great, and I'm sure someone has thought of it before, on purpose or inadvertently: Bappy Hirthday Nick.

So is the solution for him to find Mrs. Hades? I think she should post here more and stop hogging Sand all to herself. As his close friends it is only proper for them to be around us as they interact. ... What did I eat today?

Enter: Tarna. Good to see you around ol' chap.

Taking Back Sunday- A Decade Under the Influence

No, it happened when there weren't any new games or press releases, and the crewmates started getting leery-eyed and stir-crazy. It happens. And like Feng said, it was glorious. The edit function is a mere corollary of the great battle.

Oh yeah, and happy birthday Kyle.

Psh, what street do you live on? Pokemon is for people roxorz.

So when it's nick_i_am and Llyr's birthday, do we celebrate that on the same day?

Interesting. Let's pursue this. Are they poisonous spiders? Can we catch them in a jar? If so, what should we feed them to sustain life?

Happy birthday, my friend.

The culprits (I highlighted the suspects in red): What does this mean? Discuss.
