Yes there is a cure to cancer. Just eat a bunch of lemons. It's cheap and effective, and the US medical/industrial complex just doesn't want us to know about it because it's far too profitable to nearly kill people with poisonous chemo than it is to simply cure them with lemons.

Yes, because our society can only research ONE problem at a time.

Stalker was probably my favorite gaming experience of all time. At the time it was new it was so different than any FPS I had ever played before.

I really enjoyed it. It's much more morally ambiguous (with the exception of working for Ceasar) than Fallout 3, so I enjoyed playing to the endgame several different ways.

If it makes you feel better, an ex-girlfriend from way back called me up to get coffee, turns out she was in town because she was suing EA (well, not HER per se, but the firm she works for.)

It wasn't bad. Not particularly memorable, but certainly not a BAD game.

Yeah, I'm gonna be another one to say that ripping off game developers is not cool, man.

Yee-Haw!

I say go out 12 miles into international waters, secure a weight to the body and let 'er rip.

Anyone ever see that movie "Rocket Gibraltar"? These kids steal the body of the family patriach after he dies and give him a Viking-style funeral.

"Ask your doctor if getting off your ass is right for you."

I drove across that stretch of nothing at the junction of Nevada, Oregon, and Idaho. Really spectacular drive, literally drove for hours without seeing a car or a town or a residence. Felt weird and otherworldly. That was a fun drive though.

You know, there's a scottish rock band called Frightened Rabbit. Relatives of yours?

Gotcha. Seems self-explanatory in retrospect.

"Pardon me, do you mind if crank out a set?"

I don't follow you. (Not being facetious.)

That explains why I looked like a 98lb weakling when I was a teenager, but I was insane-o strong. I spent my summers hauling hay.

First world problem, indeed.

I adore little neo-fascists when they say "just following orders". It's so cuuuuuuuuute!
