Oye!
There you go with that enormous sample space again. At least now perhaps you may see why it is poor science; you see, there are many reasons why these people didn't want anything to do with you ... not even the weight of social custom imbued in marriage could overcome it ...

NWN2: Technical Challenges
So therefore the recommendations are completely false? Even when they specifically disqualify your video card? Right. Just because you got lucky and were able to play a game (but I bet it wasn't a fun experience as the underperformer struggled to keep up) that was beyond the specifications of your PC doesn't allow you to make such a syllogistic conclusion. And then come here looking for help to fix it.

Alternative life
Yeah, I only did the one night at that age (and I know my brother was fairly unimpressed to have me there with all his peers); my father owned a (big, two-bedroom, six-birth) boat and we used to spend time in the broadwater, which is where this particular campsite was (on one of the many islands in the sheltered waterway).

Alternative life
When I was travelling through SE Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore) I could walk ten paces without tripping over a Dane: they're EVERYWHERE!

Reliability of DVDs?
Yeah, that sounds a lot better. Just think of all that information that has been lost due to obsolete data standards (old diskette formats and antiquated computer standards).

Fallout 3 on the Xbox 360???
Yes. Or perhaps a morale attribute, that would prevent little rats from attacking big people, unless they were in sufficient numbers to swarm all over them and eat them before the people could react!

Oye!
Actually, I think marriage is quite a critical mechanism for social stability; especially now with longer, thinner family trees (not so many siblings, older generations living longer). The advent of step-families is one very useful way to bring the powerful familial motivator to bear on a rapidly splintering society.

RAM question
The RAM will most likely be antiquated by then, though, and the newer motherboards will have onboard flash memory disk caching technology to provide ReadyBoost, ReadyDrive, and SuperFetch for Vista. I'd offload it (eBay) and buy something else, or save for later. Or upgrade your XP.

Look, over there! :D (Hint: savings accumulate small amounts into large amounts.)

Alternative life
That's why you have to start young. I remember the excitement at camping with my brother for his ninth birthday (so I must have been four) ... it was a great time, even though I was asleep pretty early and it rained and I was in puddle in the tent.

The funny videos thread
Hmm, link doesn't look to be an obvious redirect. I don't get this bot's angle. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it's doing the Kansas City Shuffle!! quick look in the opposite direction of what you think it's going to think that you are going to do.. or?.. damn! *snap* <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Maybe it's spamming on behalf of youtube? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, no - it's spamming on behalf of yourtube. C'mon Gorth, don't get your tubeys in a bunch. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's harmless, if odd. Probably a beachhead bot ... I'll put it on probation. :D And merge this thread.

That's not an easy pistol to shoot.

Alternative life
I dunno about that: camping seems to be something that most people like when they are young, and tend to lose interest in as they prefer the comforts of the nearest 3-star hotel ...

Yeah, the figure has a good (realistic) musculature. Maybe it's an albino Twi'Lek ? "

American Foreign Legion
Not sure about what definition of "democracy" you are using, but mine says that the people decide who to vote for and that usually results in those leaders doing stuff FOR the voters, so they keep their jobs. I'm assuming your comment is referring to Iraq, specifically. In case you didn't notice there were 8 million Iraqis (and zero Americans) that voted for the current executive.

Fallout 3 on the Xbox 360???
It's certainly worth keeping an eye on this development, though I agree they are large on promises ...

Fallout 3 on the Xbox 360???
Well, that's a good way to kill a holy war! Damned sensible contribution! What next? Tolerance and encouragement for diversity?

What are you playing now?
Lucky for you there isn't a multi-player version of the oh-so-manly game of Jagged Alliance, 'cause this gurl could kick your little boy bottom before you could pull your pistol out of your pants... er... so to speak! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I feel a little violated ..!

Oye!
Blame the social scientists who are pillow-talking in the government's ear: marriage is good for the society, helps give children a formal structure for their upbringing and is good for the partners. Supposedly. As long as the parents don't hate each other, or one is a bully. But government give tax breaks to married people. But not civil partners.

The Battlestar Galactica Thread
Ah, that might explain it: I think he buys his videos from Amazon.com, so he probaly didn't realise the US demarcation.
