Enemy Within totally changed the experience, so I am not sure why you wouldnt just play through it twice.

I don't get it.

Nothing has been announced, although the way they are marketing Long War 2, it almost seems like that IS the expansion. As for buying the complete game, the game is massive, buy it and enjoy. I'm having a blast on my second playthrough and experiencing quite a few new things.

I'm a bit behind, but I have one thing to say about the crowd for the inauguration - Who the heck cares how many people attended? Who cares if it was the largest crowd or the smallest crowd? It means absolutely nothing. It's a fluff story. The media is dumb for running with these stories, but it is even more unforgivable that the White House is wasting time addressing this stuff. Go govern! Stop talking about stupid stories that have nothing to do with the future of our country. Take the high road!

Just got back from a 3-day cruise to Ensenada. It was a bachelor party trip. We had a good time, but I'm happy to be home.

I don't think people are getting it, GD.

I do wonder if the people freaking out about this also freaked out about Scooter Libby being commuted.

Every state and plan is different, so it's hard to generalize, but the bulk of my rates raised before Obamacare. That being said, I put the blame on the insurance industry above all others here. The government deserves a heaping too, but they are down the list a bit. http://www.factcheck.org/2014/11/the-great-premium-debate-continues/

He was commuted, which is a lowering of the penalty. Pardon means forgiveness.

Eh, your insurance would probably cost twice as much anyways, since insurance rates had been rising terribly well before Obamacare came into play. He failed to stem the tide, for sure, although I do give credit to the pre-existing conditions work done. edit: You folks are missing the point of the thread.

True the other 'recent' military personnel I can think of charged under the Espionage act (George Trofimoff, life in prison; James Hall III, 40 years; John Anthony Walker, 25 years) all had more comparable sentences to Manning than the non-military ones (Jeffrey Sterling, 3.5 years; Stephen Jin-Woo Kim, 13 months, John Kiriakou, 30 months) Sure, but aren't all of those examples people who sold secrets to other states?

This was a pretty fantastic appearance: I'm a big fan of the work that has been done with Cuba.

There are dozens of articles comparing his sentence to other spies, and most are less than what he received. Although this is a fairly unique case because he was giving secrets to the public. Typically you have financial motives, and the secrets are going to an enemy that is willing to pay, so that would seem to be more damning. Yet his sentence was more harsh than many people convicted of spying in the traditional sense. https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20130821/18434224275/people-who-got-shorter-sentences-than-bradley-manning-spies-selling-secrets-to-russians-active-terrorists.shtml I know you love HP, WoD. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/21/shorter-sentences-than-bradley-manning_n_3789754.html?utm_hp_ref=tw

7 years seems like a pretty long sentence for someone who is clearly mentally unstable and is more in need of psychiatric care than prison.

I defy you to find a single post where I stated such. I'm just shocked Hoonding responded to something. He's typically a one-liner type of poster. I'm shocked no one is noticing he is literally quoting president Trump. Hah, that must be it! He is clearly a writer for SNL.

Holy crap. That's insane.

You had used New Vegas as an example of a good lengthy game, so I was curious if you thought it was old or new. I would agree that it is a newer game. I'm just not sure how that helps your statement that old games were longer than new ones. You could argue that Fallout 4 is longer and has more to do than any Fallout game before it. Granted it is rubbish, but that's a different argument.

I don't agree that games are shorter now than they were in the past. Particularly with RPG's, it just depends on how you play them. Deus Ex was about 30 hours, which is about the same as the original. Tyranny is a bit shorter but Pillars of Eternity quite long, so it's not like there is a pattern here. Witcher 3 seems to be way longer than the original, etc. Wait, is New Vegas an old game to you Quillon? Games like Fallout and Baldur's Gate could be finished extremely fast if you knew what you were doing.

Channeling Lemony Snicket, I see.

Xcom 2 - Why are all my Avatar missions so far away from my base?

Except maybe I want to play all 10 of those games and not just the one. I admire anyone who can play one game and just be happy with that, but I'm a serial polygamist when it comes to gaming. If a game takes 100 hours to beat, no matter how good it is, I probably will lose interest at some point. Not something I hold against the game, but I'd rather be able to finish a story line in a reasonable amount of hours, because if I step away from it to play something else, the odds of me being able to pick up that playthrough again are low. So then I start a new character and get a little further through the story because I remember enough to move faster, but there are limits to my time and patience with long games.

Episode 11 is up, bit of mixed bag this time, although they've all got some fruit qualities in them. I'll probably do some more Japanese brewing history in future shows to elaborate on this one.

I feel like Cirque Du Soleil productions surpassed traditional circuses awhile back. A big part of it is the reputation they've gotten for animal abuse. Really the whole idea of wild animals performing seems to be going out of style, and I'm not too choked up about that. I can't imagine taking my kids to a circus with what we've learned about they way they are run. I did take my kids to see a Dolly Parton show called Dixie Stampede, and they were mesmerized. But that is horses and livestock.

I feel like I've made a difference in the world.
