  1. I relied heavily on the wiki page when playing Dead State. It was the only way I could keep track of all those people.
  2. Thanks guys, I don't know if you remember but you both recommended a few books to me some months back. I enjoyed the Red Cloud book, and have been working my way through one called Empire of the Shadows. I'll be visiting Rushmore and Crazy horse on the same day as part of a tour. I'm not sure if they will touch on the conflicting history of the two, but I will be sure to discuss it with my kids. edit: I'll probably read a few of these after the trip too. I love reading about a place after a visit when I can really picture the landscape in my head. Reading Empire of the Shadows has been a slog because I do not really know what these places are like. Pictures don't do it justice.
  3. T-minus 1 day until the big summer trip. We are heading up to Idaho, Yellowstone, South Dakota, and then down into Denver before we head back home. I've been packing the RV for days, I would have hit the road earlier but we needed to wait for my daughter's summer camp to end. As luck would have it, I poured the last beer in the keg tonight, so I've started in on the cleaning process. That way it will be ready for a new keg when we get home. Cleaning out the lines is crazy, I always find some new way to make a mess.
  4. Yeah, I think that was the big difference between this and Dead State. I ended up caring about the people in Dead State. AoD is filled with jerks.
  5. Origin. I rarely start it up, but when I do, they always seem to have some free game available. Peggle, Jade Empire, I think even Crusader: No Remorse was going at one point. Honestly it is less intrusive and runs better than Steam, but there isn't much reason for me to use it often.
  6. That was well said, WoD.
  7. My apologies, I did not realize this is about slavery.
  8. I just don't see the tangible benefits to leaving. The EU may have a tremendous amount of problems, but does this fix any of them? But honestly I'm just parroting John Oliver here, it is hard to develop a real personal opinion when I am so far separated from it all. Good luck!
  9. As long as he doesn't start to hate the passengers.
  10. The no fly list is a complete violation of due process. It's a major problem.
  11. The NRA would never let that get through. They don't even let the CDC do research on anything related to gun violence.
  12. Trump is unlikable as well, so it's not much of a factor in this election.
  13. That doesn't sound anything like the Disney version!
  14. I just watched the Pirates send their backup catcher in to pitch and inning, and he struck out the Giant's best hitter this year. I love baseball.
  15. So how did the government refer to David Koresh and Jim Jones? Radical Christians?
  16. Rest assured the other girls will be ostracizing Jane after putting up those types of numbers. I've watched enough "Real Housewives" to know that.
  17. I regret it every time. I am weak.
  18. That was a refreshing read. edit: Until i looked at the comments, ugh.
  19. Wow. The original was cool, but that looks like it is on another level.
  20. What activity, law or behaviour previously not liked by western society should be tolerated? What is to be gained by perpetually accepting such acts? If you answer with new restaurants and interesting music then you have missed what people are being upset about. I must not be explaining myself well enough here. You can be tolerant and still have a reasonable expectation that your laws will be followed and your culture will be respected. You do not need to accept such acts, but you do not need to condemn the many for the sins of a few. You have a mentally unstable homophobic Muslim man who is the son of a Afghani immigrant (who is also pretty unstable.) He stockpiled weapons and then killed 30 people in the name of ISIS. Saying the solution to this is to condemn all Muslims is no better than those that want to ban all guns. They are both short sighted and reactionary, and ignore the vast numbers of peaceful Muslims/responsible gun owners. Islam, guns, even his use of ISIS; these are all just tools that he used to carry out a terrible tragedy. They obviously amplified his instability, and that should not be ignored. But how come no one focuses on the root of this issue? He was a crazy person. This was evident long before the shooting. He had issues in school and there were red flags throughout his life. We have a serious lack of mental health care in the US, and no one seems to be addressing it. That's my take on this. It isn't going to get better by kicking out Muslims.
  21. Did you feel good about this comment?
  22. Hard not to be a little happy for Cleveland.
  23. This game is intense. Lebron gets Finals MVP no matter who wins, I say. Not that it will be a consolation to him. Ugh, stress!
  24. It certainly isn't to welcome all of the above with open arms. If a man isn't tolerating the fact that your daughter is telling him no, your reaction should not be to tolerate him when he forces her legs open. Let's expand on your super gross scenario. A young man comes to your door and is interesting in your daughter. It sounds like you want to answer the door with a gun in hand, then follow the two around with the gun, occasionally barking orders and interrogating him. Or maybe you just don't open the door. I'd rather get to know the young man and find out his intentions. I can tell him what my expectations are. If he turns out to be a punk, I'm also not going to judge all other young men on his actions. If he were to assault her, which is a terrible thought, I'd rely on the law of the land to deal with him. I'd focus my attention on my daughter and helping her recover from her ordeal.
