Rest in Peace, Gary Gygax
a very-very bad idea to make any joke about any dead person no matter who he was or what he did As Xard explained, its a joke from a WoW thread. FYI, you spelled his name wrong in your signature.

Who wants to live forever?
If I could live that lifespan in a healthy body I would take it in a second. Hell, throw me back into a 25 year old body and Ill take immortality. But if the body would continue to age, Im out.

Faraday is the scientist? I think his own note to himself is a "just in case" type of thing. Hes not displaying any of the symptoms that the others were.

Movies you have seen lately
Ive been meaning to get that. I really like the animation/way the characters are drawn in that series. It was a sad day for me when they cancelled the regular Saturday series.

helmet irony?
There was a very famous, disastrous mounted charge against a group of tanks that is viewed as the true end to horseback combat during WWI, although I cannot remember the name of the specific battle. IIRC, horseback cavalry charges took place in WWII with the Poles in a last ditch effort against the German invasion. It didnt work out so good then either.

What you did today
I caught that too and it was pretty cool. I even went so far as to set up my telescope in my living room but I couldnt see Saturn or its moon though.

Last Drink You Had?
Bourbon whiskey (JD) is my choice of poison too although I do mix it with coke. On topic, I just had a cup of double strength Columbian coffee.

North Illinois University Shooting
Im not following you Wals. IMO, mental conditions should be taken into consideration when doing a background check on people to determine their eligibility to buy a gun. Are you saying it shouldnt?

What you did today
What the heck does that mean? An hour and 18 minutes?

North Illinois University Shooting
Because, stupidly IMO, medical information is so private in the U.S. nobody can get it and that information isnt entered into any databases normally used to check a persons background.

You crazy Danes
Good luck with that. If the passage of 2000 years hasnt done it, nothing will. Well, Muhammad was born in 570 CE, so your numbers are a bit off. You might claim that 500 years is no big deal, but the Catholic church wasn't exactly a fountain of comedy when it was 1500 years old. Yeah, I was just shooting from the hip. I figured Muhammad was probably around the same time as Jesus and since we are 2008 years after the death of Jesus...you see where this is going. Whats "CE" mean? Same as "BC"? So you're saying that Islam just needs a few more centuries to get their act together? I ask because I feel youve drawn a very tenuous link between how long somethings been around and how they act. It could easily be argued that atrocities commited by the catholic church were as much a product of the times (1500 AD) then they were just because the church was only 1500 years old.
