I assume then that you key also unlocks the door? Well, I could have the fob and not have the key, and I would have absolutely no problem getting into the car (and I wouldn't even have to take it out, my car unlocks with a touch of the door handle and locks with a touch of a button on the...

Actually, if you have a Prius or similar, you do have a key (it's hidden in the fob) and there's a slot to put the fob if the fob's battery has died. All I have to do is have my fob on me in order to start my car. If I don't have my fob, my car won't start. So, unless you know how to hotwire...

Actually, I did. I will admit, though, that my memory isn't the greatest. I do remember the things that article you posted was talking about. I was a little older than you were at the time(I was 9 when Star Wars came out), and I remember reading a Time magazine article talking about the fact...

It was always 'A New Hope'. I remember that specifically from the movie, when I saw it in the theaters way back when. Of course, I always referred to it as 'Star Wars', but I was enough of a geek to remember that it was Episode 4, though I didn't always remember 'A New Hope'.

It seems to me that it really is something physical that was at the monastery, probably a sword. Anyone see the sword that Buffy is wielding in the previews? I also think that just because the writing says that he cannot wield it, it doesn't mean that he doesn't have it. Basically, I think...

I have actually been in a game where the fly spell took a lot of the fun out of it for the non-mage PCs. This was a mid-level group, 9th level or so, and the characters were supposed to be privateers. Well, our mage had the Extend Spell feat, and improved invisibility. When we got near a ship...

I can think of at least one other time that magic has had a bad side effect. In the season finale for season 4, Buffy has to deal with the First Slayer. This is a direct result of the magic used in the previous episode, where the scoobies lend themselves to Buffy in an interesting ceremony...

Like some of the others who have posted, I was also a Navy Nuke. As has been stated, this is the hardest school set in the Navy. I was also a submariner. I also have a friend who is in Nuclear Field EM "A" School right now. To answer a question asked earlier, if the NAVY fails to get you...

I agree that a template with PrCs would be the proper way to do otaku. On a side note, otaku don't enter the matrix without datajacks, they run the matrix without a deck. The ability for anyone to do this was in second edition shadowrun, but limited to otaku in third edition (with the...
