Like Sarge and Gromnir aren't the same person.

It's not so much insomnia as being unable to sleep except in broad daylight for me. Gotta get me some pills.

think you'd last that long, eh? It takes 3 weeks to starve to death.

Velvet Assassin comes out this week.
but by the time he reached India, Hiroshima and Nagasaki had been bombed, and the war abruptly ended. Churchill was said to be unhappy with the abrupt end of the war, saying it could have lasted ten more years if the Americans hadn't intervened[ Lol

Fail on Cerbus the Aardwark. Probably not the best known series, but still the genie asked if it was an animal, I said yes, it answered Golum from LotR.

he's the only reason to ever watch Blade Trinity. That and the vampire pomeranian. I don't get it, Thought he was absolutely terrible in Blade 3. Well at least were done with the series. Blade is in the slammer for tax evasion.

I don't think realism comes into any of the fallout games. It's all pretty cartoony. I can still enjoy fallout 2, fallout 1, it's just too old and too much of an eye strain. Good for it's time though. Weapon and armor degradation have been a source of annoyance with every Bethesda game I have played. Mainly because of the huge impact on damage. I mean a warhammer is a warhammer right, it doesn't have any pointy bits that can be dulled with repeated usage. At least in Morrowind and Oblivion you could play as a caster character and not have to worry about it too much, whereas in Fallout 3 you do indeed have to carry around 3 or 4 of everything you are currently using.

Skeletons locked in a lover's embrace with some sob story entered into their computer.... sure, if only there weren't one in every shack.

Chatting up girls in bars
I remember a movie called a perfect mind where Russel Crowe demonstrated a mathematical theory of mutual attraction by picking up a girl in a bar. Of course he was playing a delusional character, in a movie, and the details escape me.

My vote on that goes to Kris Kristoffersen. I found it rather interesting that the hot bow girl would go vampire hunting while blasting techno on her Ipod, you would think Vampire hunting would require all the senses, but no.

It is strange, and I am annoyed. However the price is decided at an annual general assembly. I can't sell to the highest bidder, but am dependent on whatever the mood is that year.

The tax benefit is not so large, because most of it is determined by the state as you said. I think it's more along the lines of people getting ready to move on to houses or bigger apartments and having the chance to sell their own apartments off to family at a low price, seeing how it's so impossible to find anything at a reasonable price in Copenhagen.

What you did today
The co-op consists of all the people living in this house and the one next to it, it sets the buy in price. If I had owned the actual apartment as opposed to 1/50 of the two houses I could set my own price.
-
What you did today
My apartment cost 12.000 $ ages ago when I first got it, it's listed as 100.000 $ now, and that listing is determined by the co-op I belong to. We each get votes, but so far the others are more comfortable paying less taxes. Real market value would be over 250.000. That's pretty annoying because it's a serious incentive not to sell when you know you are going to lose half the actual worth. I wish I owned the thing fair and square, but then of course it wouldn't have been so cheap to begin with.

56 m2 is a typical two room apartment where I'm from. I think mine is a little over 60. I've got two rooms and a small kitchen and bathroom.
-
What you did today
M^2 probably. Seeing as we don't measure anything in silly antiquated units like feet.

It's that annoying guy from Two Guys a Girl and a Pizza Place who for some reason is getting action roles now, he was in one of the Blade movies as well swinging around Katanas.

It got me to thinking about comic book timing though. In a comic you have characters saying lines while they are shooting guns and swashbuckling around. You can't just ignore the fact that that doesn't work in a movie.

Easily one of the worst films I've ever been subjected to. Its sad when the most entertaining part of the film is listening to the lady behind you in the theater whispering to her companions "Does this make any sense to you? This **** doesn't make any sense to me. What the hell is this even about?" The actors had no idea what to do with the material. Knowing it already didn't help me much. The stories aren't fantastic, it's all in the execution and that certain charm that is never carried to the big screen. Maybe it made sense in the 1940s, who knows.
