Does a candidate's religion matter more than the issues?
I thought I did specify which Christian gorup I was targeting with the edit. I have yet seen a single Christian fundamentalist who is pro-choice on abortion, for homosexual marriages and equal rights, who is in full support of stem cell research, who can't get past the fact that the earth is millions of years old instead of being just 10,000 years old, and so forth and so on. Scientific and social progress, man. I have yet seen a Christian Fundamentalist for them.

Who has been the best US president in recent years?
The two Dems who has my vote are Vilsack and Obama. Now that would be the ticket, and of those two I rather see Vilsack as Vice than President. I just can't picture the President in a Winnie the pooh suit. There is one Republican candidate that has my eye, surprisingly enough, and that is the former mayor of New York. There is this saying about Clinton and Bush Jr. that is quite apt: I trust Bill Clinton with my country, but not my daughter. I trust George W. Bush with my daughter, but not my country.

Are you going to get Vista?
Oh, you need to clarfiy on that part. Well, since I have been playing one game since I have installed Vista regularly, NWN2, it took some tweaking to get the settings right to have a decent FPS but for the most part I got it doing pretty well on mostly medium settings and with a slightly lower resolution. Tested out a few of the older games like Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 and they have been working okay. Max settings with KotOR made the game a tad bit wonky but when using x4 AA things settled a bit.

Bush Sr. went to war and the war was justified. He also had the backing of many nations. That is the way it should be done and not the way Bush Jr. did it. Bush Jr. has to be the worse president in recent years. I place him below Jimmy Carter.

I like using Eldritch Spear. Most foes have no clue where the attack is coming from because it is happening from such a long distance away. HA!

X-Com - the revenge?
What about the UFO: Aftermath and UFO: Aftershock. Aren't those closer to the old X Com series than Fallout Tactics?

Here is an update on the soldier who refused to go!
We might not have gone through the same physical and weapon training, but when it comes to book work where the military branches over lap, such as going over the USMJ or Geneva Convention materials they should.

Who has been the best US president in recent years?
Reagan was the most effective president, both in domestic and foreign policies. I may not like most of it, but out of all of them I respect Reagan the most. My favorite speech of his: "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall." One of the more pinnacle moments in recent history.

Warlock would be a good choice if they had Range Sneak Attacks stack with Eldritch Blast. *HINT HINT*

Does a candidate's religion matter more than the issues?
In some communities the Boy Scouts get to use community hall facilities for free, however that is changing based on their stance on homosexuality and they are throwing a fit over it. The Philadelphia city government basically told the Boy Scouts you can either give gays equal membership and opportunities or pay for the utilities that they use. Here is a link for you about the Boy Scouts and their bigotry as well their strong relationship with the government. Using public and government facilities, as well as using state runned institutions for recruiting I don't count the BSA as a private organization. http://www.atheists.org/action/alert-28-may-2003.html

what frightens you most?
I don't think I have ever had sleep paralysis. Whenever I wake up I am fully alert and most of the time late. At least it feels that way.

101 Spells Not Worth Memorizing, An old classic

"Why I Hate Fantasy RPGs"
What did happen to Safana in BG2? I don't recall. I liked Tiax. You know they should make an all gnome party with Tiax, Quayle, Jan, and Grobnar. That could be hilarious.

The flying car is just about here!
When a bus and a car hit each other it can get pretty messy. It would be ten times worse if an airbus collides with an aircar.
