Tale

Oh, Raptor Jesus... Please tell me I'm not the only one sick of "cautionary tale of [symbol of advancement or technology] gone wrong." Wizards/Scientists dabbling with [symbol of advancement or technology] that puts the entire world in danger due to their hubris and attempts to play god. Why does it seem like everyone is obsessed with a new anti-industrial movement? It's like we're in a neo-romanticism. This is why I love Doctor Who. So often it's science and knowledge that save the universe. Ancient evil comes from the deep! What do we do? We science that fudger to death!

Wizards of the Coast owns all things D&D. The license to develop NWN, however, was granted to Atari.

I ordered the Protoculture collection from Amazon.com last night. Standard shipping. It arrived today. This is why I love Amazon, sometimes.

Nymph Cloak + 8 HELL YEAH! Resist MY invocations? I don't think so. This also calls for me trading out a least invocation for Devil's Own Luck.

I knew it! Walsh is going to sell us out to the English!

I've got a friend that wants to know if you can buy potion stacks, yet. I don't know, anyone?

But, I read a post by someone on a forum saying that all the peer reviewed journals are in it for the money and everyone who disagrees is too afraid to speak out! The politicians are conspiring to control information!

I love 2142. Absolutely love it. It's the game that got me to break off my EA boycott. Good thing, too, because I also enjoy C&C 3. 2142 has tons of room for improvement, though. Too bad it won't ever see the changes it really needs. Wish I could blame EA for that, but it seems that not too many companies actually give the kind of support online games need for long term play. Obsidian, Bioware, and VALVe being exceptions.

If you feel you shouldn't attack during your 20, I hate you. WE MUST ATTACK! KILL THEM ALL!

I'm not familiar with the definition of stand such that it is a verb meaning "to make others stand."

Except it doesn't work. It's Sand that can't stand. So, taking away the thieves' chairs would only result in them not being able to sit. Maybe it's Sand who needs his chair taken.

Bio's best writers are at work on Dragon Age? I have a hard time figuring out if that's good or not. The lead writer for Baldur's Gate II apparently also wrote Carth. I guess I should be hopeful since it's supposedly a spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate.

Yeah, I was noticing that too. It actually had me pause for a moment and check posting history to figure it out for certain.

I vandalized a few cars in my youth. In regards to vandalism over theft, I can tell you the root cause is one thing: boredom. Theft is a different issue. Walsh showed curiosity over why they can't just put that effort into a regular job. Well, in some cases it's because they can't hold down a job. Much theft is drug abuse related.

RE: Agroprom My first time through it took me several tries as well. The shotgun is not what you want to be using. By this point, you should have a Viper, the 9mm SMG. You want to engage them from the furthest distance available, or make them come to you. Use a grenade as well, if you have any to spare.

I would include Wal-Mart and remove McDonalds. They may have food that's bad for you, but they don't run sweatshops.

Well I can prove that temperature rise creates increases in CO2 (just burn a piece of charcoal). But no I can not prove the reverse which is what Gore assets to be true. Of course neither can he. But as Calax says you have to have faith! It's funny, this whole global warming thing is nearly becoming a religion. And it is a zealous one that hates pagans and heretics (thats you and me Taks). I find it funny that supposedly believers in climate change are the zealous ones who hate heretics when its taks who has been consistently posting 3 or 5 posts in a row in this thread. We get less of a reaction out of Sand in EA and Fallout 3 threads.

I bought a 4 gig memory card for the PSP I bought yesterday. An AV component cable, which I will have to return because I don't have AV component hookups on any TV in the house. And a USB data and charger. Played around with converting some video using a freeware ap and also played Neverwinter Nights 2. Oh, and I ordered Robotech and Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops from Amazon.com This has been an expensive weekend.

I only lie when it's funny.

I'm playing around with my new PSP. Just got done converting some media to it and it's a terrific gadget.

I hear someone ported Cave Story to the PSP. I wonder if it works without custom firmware. hmm Edit: Apparently it is in the process of being ported. And requires a hacked PSP. Fudge. That game would be terrific on the go. There's supposedly a DS port in the works from someone else, too. Maybe I should just play the real thing.

Direct 2 Drive Neverwinter Nights 2 working with retail Mask of the Betrayer right here. No problems whatsoever.

I hope there's a second expansion. Anyone know of any good wallpapers for Mask?
