*Im getting ready for work*

Hell yeah it is. I wouldnt be above offering someone some "compensation" in the form of $500-1000 to look the other way while I slip this here form into the middle of the pile.

So whats the backstory with Hanc0ck? From the previews he's the "only one of his species" so is it a Superman clone? He seems to have all the trademark Superman powers, flight, super strength, etc...

Will someone go see Hanc0ck already!

Made me laugh . That's right, my mum has been fighting cancer for two years. Her bones are mothridden with cancer and she's just broken her ribs as well. It's really getting past amusing, all this business. Hid my head under the proverbial duvet today and played X3. Am clearly very hyped up/angry though, as I nearly cracked the desk in half thumping it after a particularly bad dogfight. Just going to crack open a half bottle of wine, keep my head down. Have to go out tomorrow though, to post various business bits and bobs. Slightly good news have been really cracking business development thanks to some novel business modelling techniques adapted to task. Masses more work coming in than I can do. Which I'm going to pretend is good, as I say. Mom too? Thats a tough one. I lost my mother to cancer when I was 17. Awful disease. Went from her lungs (smoker) to, well, everywhere else in under a year. Stiff upper lip my e-friend, you have my sympathies. That wasnt who I was referring to though. One of your recent posts speaks of a friend of yours dying (died) of cancer.

Sorry to hear that Wals. Didnt I just read of another friend of yours dying of cancer? Do you live near a toxic dump? Have you grown a superfluous third nipple?

Gah, that was probably me, or at least that scenario sounded familiar when you posted it. Sweet, sweet memory loss, wrap me in your dark embrace.

It's pronounced "You bastard" Im figuring the "b" has to be silent so it sounds like "Ros-jerg", you know, because "Ros-b-jerg" is just silly.

^Dont mind my prying but since thats your real name how is it pronounced?

Ive got a kinda silly question, what constitutes an "encounter"? So lets say your party is strolling through the woods when 3 kobalts jump you. You blow off your "once per encounter" power and your party is victorious! One minute later a kobalt with a bum leg who was bringing up the rear reaches your party, is this considered a "new encounter" and thus you can use your power again?

^Does he have more then one power? From the previews it looks as if his sole power is teleportation.

Last day of work for the week, WooHoo! Dont have any major plans other then taking the family to a fireworks show tomorrow and probably staying liquered up for the duration of the weekend. Oh, and playing WoW, my dark master.

Congrats qt3! Same old, same old over here today.

You're right about that weapon being imba Mus?, I remember having it for a long time before replacing it. I wish I could remember the name of my endgame weapon. It was a sword with knockback and all I had to do was pin Diablo in a corner and go to town.

Just think though, if we ban suicide we can prevent 17,050 gun deaths a year!

Meh, I couldnt get past the first boss in Diablo with the sorcerer (big fat thing that, iirc, drops a weapon called The Butcher). Wound up beating the game with a warrior.

Veeeery interesting (see bold). So, does the fact that only 40% of gun deaths are the result of homicide help sooth some of you inflamed Euro's? See, we're not all cowboys! I wonder if Europes much touted gun crime statisitics also include suicide. That could really change the whole perspective. EDIT: Linky

You Are A: True Neutral Human Bard (6th Level) Ability Scores: Strength- 12 Dexterity- 14 Constitution- 15 Intelligence- 14 Wisdom- 16 Charisma- 16 Alignment: True Neutral- A true neutral character does what seems to be a good idea. He doesn't feel strongly one way or the other when it comes to good vs. evil or law vs. chaos. Most true neutral characters exhibit a lack of conviction or bias rather than a commitment to neutrality. Such a character thinks of good as better than evil after all, he would rather have good neighbors and rulers than evil ones. Still, he's not personally committed to upholding good in any abstract or universal way. Some true neutral characters, on the other hand, commit themselves philosophically to neutrality. They see good, evil, law, and chaos as prejudices and dangerous extremes. They advocate the middle way of neutrality as the best, most balanced road in the long run. True neutral is the best alignment you can be because it means you act naturally, without prejudice or compulsion. However, true neutral can be a dangerous alignment because it represents apathy, indifference, and a lack of conviction. Race: Humans are the most adaptable of the common races. Short generations and a penchant for migration and conquest have made them physically diverse as well. Humans are often unorthodox in their dress, sporting unusual hairstyles, fanciful clothes, tattoos, and the like. Class: Bards- Bards often serve as negotiators, messengers, scouts, and spies. They love to accompany heroes (and villains) to witness heroic (or villainous) deeds firsthand, since a bard who can tell a story from personal experience earns renown among his fellows. A bard casts arcane spells without any advance preparation, much like a sorcerer. Bards also share some specialized skills with rogues, and their knowledge of item lore is nearly unmatched. A high Charisma score allows a bard to cast high-level spells.

Whats the saying, "you cant unring a bell". There are literally millions of weapons in the hands of US citizenry and the vast majority are law abiding. Its a small minority of people that are accountable for the majority of gun crime in the US and you can rest assured they bought the weapon in an alley. Short of kicking in everyones door I cant see any possible way to remove guns from our culture. Not that I want too either. I dont think the majority should be held hostage by the minority. The whole throwing out the baby with the bathwater thing.

I believe it takes an act of Congress to amend the constitution but I dont know how the process gets started. EDIT: From Wiki:

I never really understood the beginning dungeon complaint, doesnt it take like 5 minutes to exit?
