I had the time of my life with that game Calax, and I owe it all to you!

I heard they are already making this game. I beliieve it is called Daggerdale.

Another 3rd period collapse for the Sharks

In other news, Derek Boogard passed away at 28, they haven't announced a cause. He had dealt with concussions and was out most of the season, I get the feeling that might have something to do with his death. They haven't announced the cause of death yet, but what a tragic story.

That's funny, I thought the clawplanet was the most meh.

Monte, so far we have a Defiant guild on the Greybriar server, and a couple Guardian guys on Faeblight. Enjoy!

I thought Thor was decent as well. I don't really like the IP, but they made it interesting enough.

Glad to hear the house is ok. Shame about the Camaro

I choose to ride this, which apparently is a gay bike according to Kaftan, but I'm ok with that.

Sorry Kor, you are correct. You are 7/12 overall, tied with Volo.

Are people really still interacting with these cartoon characters? They aren't real, they are just bizarre bots.

I am currently on Season 9 of Stargate: SG1. It has been a pretty long trip, but very enjoyable. I started watching them from Season 1 around September. Once I finish, I'll watch the movies and try the two spin offs.

Boston over Tampa in 5 - I think this will go badly for one team, like possible sweep badly, but I think it could be either of them. It is odd that the only team with a recent cup win left is the Bolts. I'm choosing the Bruins because I am a fan, but I am not very confident about it. San Jose over Vancouver in 6 - I think San Jose is a deeper team, it will really come down to how much they have left in the tank after the Detroit series. That and if Loungo is shaky or not.

Ok, current results: Mkreku - 9/12 overall, went 1/4 in the last round, giving us a chance to catch him. Very sporting of you. 3 exact games guessed overall. Hurlshot - 8/12, 3/4 in the last round. It was painful, but I did guess that SJ would win in 7, giving me 4 exact games overall. Volo - 7/12, 2/4 in the last round with 3 exact games guessed. Kor - 6/12, 1/4 overall still wih zero exact games guessed. Krookie didn't have any predictions in the last round that I could find. Pretty tight competition so far!

I haven't watched American Idol in a few seasons, I think it is more about lacking time than interest, but with Cowell gone I definitely have less interest. I did catch an episode of The Voice and it looks like a pretty awesome setup. I'm more of a So You Think You Can Dance fan.

I'm a pirate ninja instructor. In my spare time I do legal research for the Brazilian ladies' beach volleyball team, when I'm not test-driving Ferraris. And I'm Buddha. I hear that pays terrible too.

I am watching the Sharks game with clenched teeth. Here is hoping San Jose picks this game to play a solid 3rd period.

Jack Bauer disagrees!

That's not true. The basis of the conventions generally in force now were negotiated in 1949, but there were predecessor treaties going back as early as the 1860s. Ok, sure. I still don't understand how that makes waterboarding not torture, or whatever WoD's point is.

It's ok to admit you are wrong every once in awhile WoD. The Geneva convention was also established after WW2, so I'm not sure what you are getting at there.

You can get paid, like money, for that? Nepenthe is a professional hobo as well, so I'm guessing the answer is no.

Fantastic read, I'm a huge fan of John McCain. I would have voted for him if he didn't chose an absolute bonehead for a running mate. I hope Dagon reads that, I think it is more articulate than any response I can give.

I don't know if it really should matter whether the torturing was effective or not. Is that how we want to get the job done? The answer from the mainstream was a resounding no, as the waterboarding incidents have been met with a very negative backlash. I know there are plenty of times in war where morality takes a back seat, but we do need to maintain some measure of decency.

Denis Dyack After the "Too Human", I bet this guy points to magnetic wrong on just about everything. Why would social gaming fail? Social gamers outnumber us hardcore gamers at least ten times over and games are really cheap to develop for 'em. If individual social games go belly up, there's always some new Angry Birds or Farmville type of game around the corner. That was my first response too. He doesn't seem like a guy with a finger on the pulse of gaming or anything.

All depends on interpretation (or lack thereof, in this case). Well, I prefer to go with the interpretations of the people that aren't bat-**** insane.
