Oh golly, I could win again. Could I really?

It's possible but not written in stone. Unless he's gotten back before I made this post.

Almost forgot, in other news, I am starting to get pretty good at Star Wars: Force Unleashed. I utterly annihilated Maris Brood after trampling over her bull rancor and am now on my way to Raxus Prime. It'll be a shame to let this game go back to Blockbuster I'm really enjoying it. I especially like the boss kill scenes.

I want that game. Too bad games are expensive as hell over here.
Hell, why don't I just hire it?

Yeah video games now of days are very expensive. i went to a used game shop and found an N64 game that costs more now than it did when it came out because it's a classic. But really I think this game is worth every dime.

capitols was a joke has nothing or very little to do with capitals. Just that they're one letter off from being the same word and pronounced roughly the same.

[sailorc]

I didn't notice. Capitols Capitals

[strike wolf]

Well it is a very small difference. I just wonder how many people know the definition difference. I guess most with a high school education would know the general difference...

[sailorc]

I know the difference. But it's such a small change I'll bet many people use them interchangeably.

True it's possible that many people use them interchangeably I mean I wouldn't say that people are getting overall dumber (though it would not surprise me if someone proved that to be fact) but the gap between the smart and the stupid seems to get wider every year.

[sailorc]

Capital Letters...... The capital of the US..... the US Capitol building.....

It is very possible I might confuse the second two.

[strike wolf]

Especially when it's someone talking and not handing you a written note.

New Page, so...

[Lucarilover240]

Well, back from Georgia, and leaving for Ireland tomorrow. In the meantime, time for a shitload of catch up posting! (cracks knuckles, then cracks them again for good measure)

[Lucarilover240]

So, I made my own motivational poster for lulz.

So what does lulz stand for.

You know, I honestly don't know. Interesting. (Is too lazy to google)

I'd like to see how great we could make fighter planes now of days seeing as we can now make carbon into forms stronger than diamond. I mean think about it. It would be relatively lightweight but super-durable. Than again I'm sure someone's already working on something like that...

Problem is that aircraft can already perform past the limits that humans can endure in the cockpit.

Robot pilots? Not the artificially intelligent kind necessarily but maybe ones that are controlled by pilots in a simulator...

Not the same. For accurate control one needs tactile feedback. Just think of the difference between really driving a car and a simulator. Much easier to keep a car under control when you have inertia and other external stimuli to help you calculate maneuvers.

True...Maybe we just need to start breeding better pilots then...

You people are all forgetting one thing. We have automated planes already. The Preadator. The kind used in Transformers 2. Yes, it does exist. Able to be safely flown from accross the globe. If it gets shot down over Iraq, oh well, the "pilot" was in a hotel in LA anyway. As long as people are able to use a joystick and can play a combat flight simulator game worth a shit, there's no problem.

so i am leaving have fun with out me

What?

Jimbo!

you made it bakc. How was the crazy horde of mutant man-eating plants?

Oh, plants, now those are frigging DEADLY. (grabs a can of generic weed killer)

Ok, so to catch up a little on the Jones vacation - the kids were at camp horseriding, rockclimbing, fishing, a whole lot of other stuff (envious dad). So we did a mini-tour of the states.

To take the last first, we spent the last three nights in NYC, and on the Thursday Mrs Curl went into work while I spent a last day nosing.

Of course, I bought books and comics. One of the finest purchases was a volume of Dan Dare from the ancient Eagle comic, discounted to $9.

Our NYC hotel was in the Chelsea district, we were on the 21st floor and had the most stereotypical NYC view imaginable: on the roof across the street was a gaggle of watertowers that made you expect a knock-down drag-out fight involving DD or Spidey at any moment.

IN the middle distance was a a new skyscraper being constructed, and behind that probably NYC's two most famous buildings - the Empire State and the CHrysler.

We ate some excellent meals out - THai and Indian and Italian, and two excellent breakfasts in a nearby diner. ONly duff meal was the room service breakfast which we allowed ourselves on the last morning as the final luxury. You coulda played baseball with the poached eggs, and it took me over a minute to find the burnt sausage amongst the burnt homefries, because it was the size of a homefry: the smallest sausage in the universe.

We paid our first visit to the Metropolitan Museum, and I was cultured out after only about 5% of it. There will certainly be more visits. I was very proud of spotting that a portrait by John Singer Sergeant was by him just by the style, and sorry there weren't more. (I once went to an exhibition of his pencil drawings in London, he is vastly under-rated).

Also went into the NYC library for the first time, it is awe-inspiring. I got a list of exhibitions, lectures, etc held in various library locations, all of which are either already past, or happening while I'm busy. I shall try to keep an eye on what else they have in the future.

We went to a stand-up comedy show one evening, and I'm gonna sign up for some classes that they run there in the next few months when I work out exactly when I can spare the time.

We tried to get tickets for the free "Shakespeare in the Park", only to find that some of the people that'd been queuing since 8am failed to get in.

We went to the South East Seaport or whatever its called, very dissapointing, just a small and dull shopping mall really.

We walked through Chinatown and Little Italy, Chelsea and the East Village, and lots more.

WE walked our legs off. With only one subway trip and no other transport, we hit the Staten Island Ferry entrance and 93rd Street, as the Southern and Northern extremes, and the Chelsea piers & 1st avenue as the western and eastern extremes. Altogether I calculate we wlaked about 40 miles while we were there.

I didn't have time to read this whole thing so I just read teh first few words of every paragraph. Unfortunately that just lead to epic confusion as to what you were saying.

I dust read the first word, then didn't bother reading anything else. Sorry, curl.

Cheerios!

Yep, he loves his Cheerios. I like this pic because you can see how strong his arm is. For an 8 month old he has some guns. He hit his mom in the eye yesterday and almost gave her a black eye.

Almost? I've never heard of an almost black eye. Did her eye turn grey or something?

Those guys are pussies, I'll fly it!

I just figured out how you have such amazing physical abilities...

This is the second time you said Those guys are pussies, I'll fly it!. That is a known glitch in the Matrix.

Neo?

I know Kung Fu.

And I know Judo. (this is a lie)

[Lucarilover240]

Good question. Any guesses? **Eats another banana**
