1) I already moved out of my toxic waste-adjacent apartment
2) I'm currently saving to move to BC
3) My only reason for staying is financial. I simply don't have the money to live elsewhere (yet). I don't have much love for my hometown. -

I'm going to be blunt. My two-way street of family drama is a touchy subject for me. Especially now. I only brought it up because I felt the need to vent and this is the best place. My real life friends would only offer sympathy, and I'd rather avoid the chick flick moments. Little risk of those here. But my venting doesn't mean I'm looking to share my 'pain' beyond that. -
Jan 27, 2007mikeyG posted a message on My Life As An OrphanI'd consider myself once burned, twice shy. I'm more jaded than cynical. I'm only pessimistic about the motives of people who have given me reason to be.Posted in: {bloggyG}
What do you mean what ails me? -

I think it's funny that he's Scientology's Christ. He didn't even start the damn cult or have anything at all to do with its founding, he's just the idiot with the highest profile. -

Which I totally did. I always thought blogs were rad. - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.
I honestly have no clue how that rationalizing works. I'd say it's because uploading indicates an intent to break copyright, but then so does downloading. It really is insconsistant. Not that it matters all that much, I get to download legally so I don't dwell on the logic behind the legality.
But the odd time I do ponder it, it makes absolutely no sense. Like, none at all.

Happy Birthday!!!!!
Were there massively powerful cards? Sure, but they weren't really mistakes. Aside from perhaps Skullclamp, I think the cards that seem really powerful are a result of R&D pushing the line a bit. Once Skullclamp got the axe, no single card remained that was a source of problems. Sure there are some star cards which seem very potent, but they only appear this way because of the many synergistic cards backing them up.
Ravager itself is only fearsome with the backup of other artifacts. Same with DotV. Both are only great cards until you add in a pack of other artifacts that all work together to power insane levels of winning power. The problem isn't inherently Ravager or DotV, it's how all those cards work together (powered by the speed of the affinity mechanic) to win.
Mirrodin may have had a warping effect on standard, but it rocks for casual and T1. Once you get past the assiness of affinity, there's a trove of awesome cards waiting to be used.
I actually know few recent RPG's, so any suggestions I make would be a bit older, and even then I'm finding it hard thinking of any that haven't already been suggested.
But Chrono Trigger would be my ultimate pick. Great battle system, great graphics and music (for the time, of course), amazing story. Plus it has insane replayability which is good since it only runs about 20 hours each playthrough. But playing it over and over never gets boring, at least not to me.
A person's life is their own to live as they so choose. If they choose to commit suicide, I feel that should be well within their rights. It's unfortunate, but that shouldn't make it illegal.
Take my uncle. He's devoutly Anglican and his girlfriend is Jewish. Our local Anglican church wouldn't marry them (I'm assuming it was based upon the interreligion issue, but I'm not completely sure on that) but my uncle refused to be married anywhere but in his church. They broke up a few months later.
Any relationship that cannot overcome a problem such as differing religions probably wasn't such a hot coupling to begin with.
So Spiderman 3 may very well be it. I haven't seen anything that leads me to believe Spiderman 4 is a definate, and I doubt we will anytime soon. Aside from that I still personally feel Venom is too complex a character to squeeze into one film. I suppose it could be done, but I'd rather he was setup in one then the focus in the next. But Raimi & Co could surprise me. *shrug*
As for Ray Charles, meh. I didn't hate him or anything, but does anyone really think he would've won so much if he were still alive? Cuz I doubt it.
As for things that actually made me happy. Yay for Zack Braff, although his award basically amounts to "Best Mixed Tape", but whatever. Boy deserves more awards, too bad his first big one was a Grammy. Considering he's an actor/director and all. And good work John Mayer, just too bad he won for "Daughters", probably his least interesting song. Boy's got talent, but none of it was used on that song. So naturally it's the song that wins. Whatev.
Performance-wise, none really wowed me. The Joss Stone/Melissa Etheridge tribute to Janis Joplin was good, but the "All-Star" rendition of "Across the Universe" damn-near ruined that sweet song. You'd think with that many talented people they'd be able to ace that song, but no. Otherwise, the performances weren't too awe-inspiring.
All-in-all, this year's Grammy's didn't suck, but they really did't blow up my skirt either.
No, Echidna, capitol E is from Greek mythology. (though there is an animal called an echidna, which is like a wierd Australian pocupine-mole thing that Sega was inspired by to create Knuckles back in the day) Taken directly from RC's post:
Anyway, these cards are superb, as have been all the colors revealed thus far. I love the Greek-flavor and the push of mono-colored play. It's like a reverse Invasion Block. Very, very cool. There's nothing I'd change, like at all. Kentros may be powerful, but I don't think anything that can be broken by Mirror Gallery is that bad. The card disadvantage inherant in any Mirror Gallery is enough to deter everyone but Casual players. And even then, getting extra lands isn't going to win games on its own.
Though Aeopus might need lesser power/toughness. As is, he's a game-breaker, capable of completely crushing enemy creature while drawing you a massive amount of cards every couple turns. Even as a 3/4 or 3/3, he's a champ. Though he doesn't have trample, so that's not too bad. No evasion is usually a good enough drawback on a beatdown creature. But Aeopus is still one to keep an eye on, it could go either way.
It'd be cool to see Venom, but I won't hold my breath. Though if Black Cat would just show up, I'd be excited. I love her.
