*...the people that are just railing against all Christians need to realize that not all Christians are the fire and brimstone types. I would say that even the majority aren't, but it's more of a vocal minority.*

What part of "the black line is the equation y = A(1-B/x) which fits best for A=101 and B=9260" did you not understand?

Close. The opposite of love is a KFC Famous Bowl.

Neat! Something *else* I can use to needle the Catholic church!

I wasn't thinking of refining it: I'd take the whole cat and plunk it on the counter at the metals place.

They DO run about $1000 new. Or at least, that's the cost of the rear exhaust assembly for my Elantra. The assembly consists of the cat, rear half of the pipe and the flex pipe. Since the pipe stuff costs only $100 or so on it's own, I assume the rest of the value is in the cat.

Hmm, this reminds me of something: Since there's like $500-600 worth of platinum and palladium in a car's catalytic converter, would it be worthwhile if I'm getting rid of a very old car to first remove the converter and sell it separately?

*Reading online* . . . Oh, wait, I see it was indeed upheld . . . On VERY stupid grounds too, I might add . . . Huh. Well you learn something every day.

We shall have to agree to disagree. I'd expected Akiba to be the main event of my trip there, but it turned out to be highly resistible. Kyoto and the Kitayama Mountains were much, much nicer.

'Cept I assume the appeal is still ongoing, right? And by 'appeal', is this state or federal court we're talking about?

Her, I admit, is fairly cookie-cutter. (I dunno, maybe she's unshaven.)

I'd like it on Wii, PC and/or iOS, myself.

That's not all that's added to Dragon's Crown . . .

Does anyone else think that, after the shining wonder that is Castle Crashers, that Behemoth's new thing—Battle Block Theater—looks kind of pale?

Funnily enough, I have my doubts that you actually love that.

This is the way I prefer to experience Akihabara: Through the cleansing filter of the internet. Because I've been there in person and let me you that the only thing you're missing by not doing so is the PERPETUAL HAZE OF ACRID CIGARETTE SMOKE.

This strikes me as a law passed in the vein of "Here Christians: have the ideological equivalent of a bleedingly rare steak. On the House."

Oh and I've said this before: I'm willing to believe American Apparel is a bad company run by a bad man.

When I die, I want to come back as that bicycle seat.
