I can touch type. I took a typing class in 10th grade (1987) and learned how to type on old typewriters from the 60's. Didn't do anything with it until I got into college and had access to computer games. When I started writing areas for a Diku mud I quickly took the crude and slow typing skills...

I'm glad it was able to make you laugh! It would definitely cause him to look at that car in a whole new way. :P

What I'm about to suggest isn't meant to be an insult, or comedy -- I'm a happily married husband of 11 and 1/2 years... Take your husband for a ride in your new car. Drive somewhere remote, and then do him on the hood. He didn't get you a car because he wants you to match him in price on his...

You are incorrect in this, and your other antagonizing posts. When a DM and the vast majority of the players at a game table are in agreement that the actions of one single individual at the table is making the group experience worse, that person is the problem. Not the DM. Call them rules...

Can players know too much? No. Can players abuse their knowledge? Yes. There is a telling difference between knowing the rules as well as, or even better, than the DM and using that knowledge to interfere with his/her game. This is an example of BAD: "The rules clearly state that a X has an...

Tacos! MMMM Tacos!

It's just the honeymoon phase -- one I can't wait to have for myself! It will wear off in the future, but you will still love the console. I've been helplessly addicted to all forms of gaming all my life and while I may have done more of X than Y for some period of time, I've always moved...

Aaron, you should get yourself some counseling as well. I don't mean to insult you, but your level of depression isn't healthy and I'd like to see you find some happy places in life.

before we get to that other thread.... part of it is that they bought their house at say $120K and sell it for $250 and then buy a home worth $300... their loan amount is only $50K. My brother in law finances homes in Southern California, and that's how he explained it to me. Once you are in and...

My only thought is that you both should be seeing the same counselor -- or two counselors who work together and can help you both as individuals and as a couple. The key to everything going forward is good communication, and having a counselor in the process can really help out. Beyond that, I...

A note about creativity... I forget who it was but a wise man once told me that creativity isn't about getting yourself outside of the box and seeing what you can do -- it's about taking things out of the box and working with whats left to do interesting things. Turns that philosophy on it's...

STAY AWAY FROM MICHIGAN. I love this state. It is beautiful. There are lakes and forests and all kinds of things to do outside of your house all year round. The mix of urban and rural living is wonderful. The people are hard working blue collar folks who put this country on the road. If you can...

I'm not a Realms player so I can't really tell you if it is culturally appropriate or not -- but I wouldn't worry about the munchkin factor. One mans munchkin is another mans low powered character. I'd suggest talking to the DM about what is culturally appropriate and seeing if anything in that...

Woah! That just helped me make a decision. I'm moving to a new state, and picking up a phone to use there... and it won't be Cingular. The technology exists to turn those messages of -- the fact that they choose not to when you request it tells me that service is not high on their list of concerns.

Try this thread at the BioWare forums. Seems to be a guy with a similar problem and fix... Moderators weighed in there as well and didn't say "This stinks!" so there may be hope.

You have their phone number... CALL THEM! Dude, if you find one person there who can speak English you are going to have a subject matter expert. The most important thing about spirits of any sort is knowing what they go with. Taking a straight pull from the bottle will give you an idea, but...

Mission accomplished! :)

This would be the perfect setting for an 'evil' campaign. The Players can play evil characters, but not evil characters who belong to the Shadow. They are still rebels (the Shadow isn't their kind of evil, or they want to replace it). A great way to make a party of strange bedfellows who...

You've gotta turn that thinking on it's head. It's not that you are the man who 'turned her gay' it's that you were so damn good in bed that when she decided that she needed to branch out for something different another man just wasn't an option. Nobody could top your performance. Plus, you...

I wishe he would have saved that so we could see it. Would be awesome.
