zornwil Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Re: Musings on Random Musings You can tell you're too much of a gun bunny when you read someone saying "I'M GETTING A CZ5000 and I owned 2 CZ101's" and you immediately think "A precision bolt-action rifle and two polymer Czechoslovakian pistols." Understandable, a lot of musicians have never heard of the Cosmo (CZ) Casio synth line. It's probably more niche than the guns you named.

proditor Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Re: Musings on Random Musings What in the name of Jimmy Floyd Hasselbank is the 'Piotr Velikiy' ?Heh...my naval geekiness has been exposed. The Piotr Velikiy is one of the only modern battlecruisers in service anywhere. Formerly known as the Kirov class in the USSR, 2 of the 4 are still in service with the Russian Navy. The P. Velikiy (Peter the Great) and the Admiral Nakhimov (er...Admiral Nakhimov). You can see more about this monster of a ship (Largest warships produced since WW2 other than Aircraft Carriers) here: http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/kirov/ And also see yet another variation on the name. I have yet to see any two sources agree on how to spell "Peter" in Russian. death tribble 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klytus Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Re: Musings on Random Musings Heavens to Murtgatroid (or however Snaggletooth sez it)... Yup. That's evil. But, is it fun? Oh yeah... especially when your Blackguard's automated dialogue goes "Die, you little bastards! DIE!!" And then for treasure... you have to take the heart of one of those innocent children to a Pit Fiend to complete the magical poison you are making.

Magmarock Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 Re: Musings on Random Musings Heavens to Murtgatroid (or however Snaggletooth sez it)... Actually, it is Snagglepuss who had the catch-phrases "Exit, stage left" and "Heavens to Murgatroyd". "Purists, by the way, point out that those pre-series appearances were actually made by a pink mountain lion named Snaggletooth, but the differences in design, if not character, are subtle, and this may be an Egghead/Elmer question."

I have yet to see any two sources agree on how to spell "Peter" in Russian. Ah, Proditor... When I was much younger, I was into model ships and naval stuff. It was a carry over from watching Star Trek and Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Big ships with big casts... I've written a few stories about them. Then I learned the real Navy was much more complex. But still... big ships is cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, I like hearing neckbones crunch after you bag 'em. This is Metal Gear Solid without all those annoying nukes and Snake's insipid pickup lines... and less cutscenes.

This is not the first time this sort of thing has happened... I tend to do that sort of thing as well, though I tend to just give 90k a pop. I got myself down to an even 35 million last night before logging and tonight while helping someone else get toward level 50 in the Shadow Shard wound up with another 300k. I wish we could buy bases.

Just A Guy Name Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Re: Musings on Random Musings I'm bored with my avatars.Do you mean of cycling through the same ones? Have you considered going w/o one? Maybe use a piece of art that catches your fancy. Something non-representational, perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
