Pot, meet kettle.

Sort of a jaundiced brown (but my Oblivion character has "green" eyes, so I had already guessed I needed to do some corrective work).

Those decaffeinated adverts from the eighties were brilliant! Nothing worth doing is easy.

Psilocybin

I thought so ... I need to calibrate my screen for colours ...

Spam removed AGAIN. Play or watch. Don't post off-topic. :angry:

Marilyn Manson? And you are seriously asking?

Greeks want love, too!

Trivia for today: Antarctica means "without (polar) bears".

What colour are their eyes?

Heard of the Persians? And the Greeks? Macedonians? Holy Roman Empire?

The problem is that the body develops a tolerance to any substance given over a period of time. Most of the caffeine you are imbibing is just there to prevent you from getting a headache: you aren't getting any real benefit from the caffeine. If you wean yourself off for a week or so, then you can get the full effects again, and if you keep your daily intake below about 200mg, then you won't suffer any symptoms due to addiction.

Half the planet... well actually less than half. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Strictly speaking, apart from the equatorial-hugging tropics (where regrowth is constant), Spring is the rebirth after Winter for the whole planet: it just doesn't happen in the two hemispheres simulatenously. :D

Not designing graphic models.

That, and the Oblivion toollset was released a couple of days early. They are two seperate objects, and it isn't a bad idea to give bedroom-dwelling developers a head start, as it also gives warm fuzzies.

Caffeine will forever have its hold on me. I tried going a day without it. I will not make that mistake again. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I regularly wean myself off coffee for a few days / weeks, so that when I want to control my alertness more precisely. Adequate hydration is the key (at least seven to eight cups of water a day).

Now Hades has to decide whether his principles would be best served by boycotting Ubisoft completely, or buying this game because they decided not to use StarForce ... "

What's the game?

I never did get coffee. i'll drink the odd latte but like one a month (if that). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Caffeine is actually a very effective and useful psychoactive substance (second only to nicotine for concentration and reactions), and near to amphetemines for enhanced aptitude. It definitely improves the body's clock-dependent alerting, and I have noticed that it allws me to reduce my daily minimum sleep quota. Also, it doesn't have a long half-life (between three and seven hours, depending on age, activity and individual's liver enzyme chemistry), so that after the the caffeine begins the have an effect

You do realise that there are, at any particular moment, about two dozen wars simultaneously occurring, don't you? I read a book, written at the turn of the twentieth century (i.e. before The Great War), and covered the ten most important battles in history. Most of them were before some guy allegedly got strung up on a couple of bits of trees for saying that the Golden Rule was a pretty decent idea.

Just keep the dosage up, too.

The parent who decided to sue (whether at the lead of an ambulance-chaser, or not) demonstrates the truth beneath the thin veneer of pretense: greed. Just like the bottom-dwellers that thought to make a score off Michael Jackson, "parents" like these think nothing of using "their" children to further their own gains, irrespective of the jeopardy in which the innocents may find themselves.

Hopefully the toolset will be released on time ...

Fixed!
