lemming Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 Ok, off to start cleaning like a mad man. Much to do before the guests arrive. Quote
Hermit Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 I've come to the realization that I'm a bit more 'Hawkish' than I'm comfortable with. That is, I don't want war, but I feel little shame in might being used against those who abuse their own might on the helpless. On the flip side, as I'm safe here; it troubles me that I maybe showing signs of callousness. Quote
Hermit Posted December 20, 2003 Report Posted December 20, 2003 I've also come to the realization that I'm rather shallow in a few areas, but oddly, this doesn't trouble me nearly as much Quote
Hermit Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 If Good is greater than evil, the light is greater than dark, and one candle can hold back the entire night from it's domain.... wouldn't it be in Evil's best interest to own the match production and cigeratte lighter factories? Quote
Vondy Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 It can be really painful to watch players make the absolute wrong decision - really painful... Quote
zornwil Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 Getting very near completion (probably tomorrow) on a near-perfect song by a friend, he is an amazing songwriter, better than most who do it commercially, and I believe he could be as good as the best given time and any decent breaks. it's a sort of sad song but powerful, and sort of uplifting in a way.

Hermit Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 Pagan friends are doing their Yule thang. Quote
zornwil Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 It's strange how affecting an unpleasant trip to the bathroom can be. But a few posts from Hermit and Catacomb at least can turn that around. Quote
lemming Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 Woo, room spinning. At least the cookies should turn out well. Quote
Rachel Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 I sometimes wonder if people post gay marriage news to the NGD board just to piss me, and other people, off. No offense intended to anyone. Quote
Hermit Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 Insomnia is a pain in the butt. Quote
Rachel Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 I think some people have nothing better to do than purposely incite other people. Does that give them a feeling of power? If so, I pity them their smallness of spirit. Quote
Hermit Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 Argh... just... argh. Oh well, off to bed for a good long... nap. Quote
lemming Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 Hmm, 8:30 am and I think I'm going back to bed. Quote
Hermit Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 I wanna be sedated... No, really, feeling a tad jumpy right now. Quote
Hermit Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 It's quiet on the NGD boards... too quiet. Quote
Vondy Posted December 21, 2003 Report Posted December 21, 2003 toddlers have weird fashion sense. My daughter is walking around in her t-shirt, diaper and snow boots. She must have the snow boots.... Quote
Rachel Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 We just got back from the visitation for our friend's mother. I watched as Kara went to everyone in our friend's family, most of whom she'd never met, and managed to bring a small smile to each of their faces. Just by listening and using her own natural charm and optimism. The funny thing is, I don't think she realized just how much she was helping out. Quote
Rachel Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 Upon returning home, we found out that the Rams have the inside track to home field advantage throughout the play-offs. Kara is now bouncing off the walls. God help us all if the Rams win against the hapless Detroit Lions next week. lol Quote
Hermit Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 Hmm, our national threat level has risen to Orange again. Normally, I just brush this off, but somehow it figures that if Islamozealots were going to pull a terrorist attack at any time, it would be the holidays...especially Christmas since that's the day that has religious significance to many Americans.

lemming Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 I think I'll be going to sleep very early tonight. While I didn't have a bad hangover from last night, my body is wanting to go to sleep. And at the housewarming we just got back from, one of the other guests brought a bottle of 20 year old Talisker, cask strength. Yummy. Quote
Rachel Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 I'll check in on a thread, out of curiosity, and notice that there will be a debate (to be generous) going on. Nothing new on these boards. Then I'll see one person go off on a tangent in response to someone else disagreeing with them. This person sees a conspiracy and attributes things to his opponent that have no bearing on what his opponent posting. I will ask how they came to that conclusion and then point out that it really doesn't help their argument if that's all they've got to respond to the opposition. Of course, the person never responds to my question, but will move to the next question that he's taken as a personal attack. Is it because they don't have an answer and know it? Or is it more that they don't want to debate, but want people to agree with them blindly? Or, barring that, they want someone to insult wildly? I really don't know. Quote
Hermit Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 Maybe if I don't sleep, being passed out tommorrow will make the visit with my folks this week that much faster? Nah, not a chance. Quote
Bazza Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 Well this is my story. My hard drive was starting to make a funny noise on Wednesday night. I took it in to have a look at last Friday (Thursday was busy). It turns out that I could get the computer back for the weekend and the hard drive collapsed in "pre xmas hype". Well today, a Monday, I'm finally posting back again after a unwelcome delay. Now to catch up with 4/5 days posts. :sigh: Quote
BlackSword Posted December 22, 2003 Report Posted December 22, 2003 Watched wrestling last night and I noticed something a bit odd. So I continued to watch one wrestler (The Hurricane) and realized, he had a Green Lantern tatoo on his right shoulder. Its a bit funny to see references to comic books in pop culture. Quote
