As Awsomeness pointed out, it is a different matter when it affects people other than yourself, and the argument can be made for pretty much any substance that they can negatively affect the lives of other people.

ToEE died because it wasn't really a good game. It got bad reviews and had a pretty mediocre reception by the public. DLC would not have done anything to save it. Bioware does not release games in such a state, and that is why they are successful. I'm a big fan of the ToEE combat engine, but lets call a spade a spade.

Yep, ecstasy can be pretty nasty stuff. Anything you can OD on with a handful should be closely regulated. I could go either way on marijuana. I don't even like the nuisance that is tobacco, so I have trouble supporting another type of smoking, but it's pretty difficult to justify why pot is illegal but alcohol is an american foundation.

That was pretty entertaining.

I took my wife through a haunted house a couple nights ago, and the clown was the scariest part for her. He followed us all the way out the door.

Yes, that is a wonderful use of taxpayers money.

Yeah, I was in a car accident some years ago and the seat belt bruised my chest. I had a class that morning and I went into it about 20 minutes before it ended and the professor said, "you're a little late." The class laughed. I responded, "Yes, I was in a car accident, but I didn't want to miss the first day of class." Anyhow, my dad is getting old and I worry about him driving. He's 82 now and he still drives too fast. We're trying to convince him that maybe he should folks drive him places. His mind is still sharp, but you worry about reflexes, like you said. I hope you mom stays in good health, though. Getting in an accident is pretty traumatic, even for younger folks. We had to take my Grandpa's license and keys away a few years back. It was hard, but he had gotten in a fender bender and just drove away from the accident.

The OC is worth a play through. Not so much a second one.

I couldn't get into it. Maybe it's the whole "educators as complete tards" angle that he really pushes.

Quest For Glory V was developed due to an internet petition, if I remember rightly. http://qfg.info/coalition.html

Speaking of kiddie, my 2 and a half year old daughter absolutely loves the game already. She has taken custody of my Game Informer magazine with Mickey on the cover, and she points out that the houses are scary but Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck are cool. So yeah, it is a kids game, but I think it will be interesting for adults.

I don't believe moving from Mexico to Zimbabwe is actually all that cheap.

It will sell like gangbusters on the Wii, so I don't think they are too worried about that decision.

Craig Anderson looks like the real deal as well, which is a big piece of the Colorado puzzle. I'm still not sure where they will be in 60 games, but they have been fun to watch so far.

Phillies dominated game one. That was a heck of a pitching performance by Lee, are there a lot of complete games in the WS?

Actually I've seen Killian concede arguments quite a few times over the years, or at least he has been willing to admit he is just being stubborn for the sake of stubbornness. That is a big thing to do and I have a lot of respect for him in that regard.

I agree, it does seem to be getting later. I actually think they can start the playoffs a bit earlier though. Maybe cut a week off spring training or something.

I also prefer lower levels in RPG's, especially D&D. Past level 6 I think it starts getting goofy.

CPR has changed a lot over the years. I was trained last year, my wife gets trained every year since she teaches PE. But artificial respiration is still a part of it.

Last night I got nauseous playing Mount and Blade. I really get sick fighting on horseback for too long.

Prediction - The weather is going to suck.

Yep, CPR is only for folks with no pulse. You are basically just trying to keep to heart pumping blood for a bit until medical attention can be given.

Nobody is arguing that the guy deserved to walk for not stepping in to stop the abuse. He is going to serve a minimum of 3 years in prison. That's a hefty sentence. But I agree with the judge that 25 years is excessive for an act of inaction.

It is terrible to watch something like this happen and not intervene, and 3 years is a pretty serious sentence. But it's not anywhere near the same as going through with the action yourself.

Do you really think it's that different from doing it himself? Carrying out justice is not a waste of money, it's the most important function the government has. It is entirely different. It is actually the definition of different. One is an action, the other is inaction.
