I loved going to Arjun's house, I remember that time Pappy ran that awesome Warhammer adventure at Arjun's for me, Stone, Devon, Brad and Ryan and we had to fight that creature named Ahto the assho or something in that maze, that was some dope shit. I hated when Devon put my elastics on his feet so fucking much, he'd always take them off my magic cards when I wasn't looking and I'd be doing something and all of a sudden out of the corner of my eye I'd see Devon giggling with his bare feet up in the air and my elastic bands all around his toes. So I'd get all pissed and Pappy would laugh his ass off while I chased Devon around Stone's house and Stone would throw dice at us each time we ran by the table. I remember all that old school stuff, remember that game Thunder Road? That game ruled. And how we'd make our own rules for developing nukes in Supremacy, and we'd play Milles Bourne and Uno in the mornings at the Intermediate School while Calliander and I gave sermons about how Genesis was better than SNES. And then at lunch TA would always do funny stuff to make Devon spit out his juice and food and all the other tables would give us shitty looks, and sometimes one of those asshole BIS administrators would come give us shit. Or when we'd go swimming at Stone's and Ryan would pull down his shorts and do the humpback whale thing to freak Devon out. I remember the night Devon and I went to see Dumb and Dumber and he had to pee throughout the whole movie but he was laughing too hard to get up because he thought he'd piss himself, so at the end he ran screaming into the restroom and I pretended I wasn't with him because everyone was giving him the stinkeye. Or the time I saw Street Fighter the Movie with Arjun and Stone and it was so terrible that we were throwing food and shit for entertainment. I remember how Arjun's Mom used to always take us to the mall and make food for everyone, she was so great. Or when we'd sleep over at Brad's house and watch scrambled porn on Spice all night. I could go on forever with all that old school shit, but I won't. We used to be so innocent.....

I think I like the new colors more, and I like the black backround. My only suggestion would be to make the posting column narrower, I can't fit the whole thing on my monitor at 800 by 600. Other than that the new design is very good, good work. And Lio, if you see that girl at the party next week initiate a conversation with her so she knows you like her at least on some level, many times I've fallen into the trap of testing to see if a girl likes me by letting her keep initiating conversations and do all the legwork, and eventually she figures I don't care and doesn't approach me anymore, and then I figure "Oh, I guess she didn't like me that much after all". Little ego games like that are really insideous, I think most of the time we don't even realize we're doing it. Did everyone hear that Fasa is going bankrupt? They sold the Shadowrun license to some company I've never heard of but is run by one of the original founders of Fasa. It's probably our fault since we stopped dropping assloads of money on Shadowrun sourcebooks. I kinda miss Shadowrun, I mean yeah we played it wrong and all but making all those different power characters was fun, and it was fun to just fuck around and do crazy shit and tie up American Dream like Hannibal Lecter so he wouldn't ass rape the guy we were paid 3 billion yen to protect, only to have Blood's Mecha Troll end up raping some important guy's daughter while the mage changed "Ahhh help!" to "I love it el presidente!". Memories.......

The new design is good except for it not being centered, and why aren't I listed under authors n3gr30s

Stone is right for the most part. Peps is very correct about a lot of women, but those women are usually not worth pursuing anyway. Also, I don't think women are the only gender with faults. I'm sure women don't like it when guys won't go out with them because their tits aren't quite big enough or their hair isn't the perfect color. In terms of physical shallowness men are a lot worse in general. If a guy is serious about finding a woman he can, the thing is a lot of the time the guy has issues deep down that keep him from truly looking for a woman. Like, how Lio always went after women he knew from the start he could never ever pry away from their b/f or change, because it was safe. You have to make sure every part of your being is ready and willing to find a good woman and then it's really not hard. A mental trick I do when I'm trying to get a woman is picture the woman as one of your male friends and talk to them accordingly. Not totally accordingly, but enough to remove the sexual part so you can focus on being funny and fun. When a guy is talking to a woman with the intention of fucking her, the woman can sense it right away and it turns them right off. Throw in a few charming things here and there so she knows you're at least a little interested in her and aren't gay though. Will Smith actually said something really perceptive and intelligent once, he said that you can't be funny and sexy to a woman at the same time, you can be funny and then be sexy right after or before being funny but not at the same time, so you have to mix up the being funny and not just try to be funny constantly.

When I see a girl you want but she says she's hooking up with some random guy I've never even met before then I couldn't give less of a fuck about that other dude, and what would I have to lose. If a squirrel sees a nut but another unknown squirrel is in the vicinity of it the squirrel doesn't care, he goes after the nut. Football rules but it's not nessesary to getting girls, however alchohol definately helps a lot. When I'm at a party and everyone's drinking, meeting women is easier than easy. Once people have a few in em they aren't worrying about breaking the ice or all those other little social obstacles, they just want to talk and have fun. I also have a theory that women have a "put out" button inside their bodies with an empty alchohol sac hanging above it. Fill the sac and you can figure out the rest....

Well, I started weightlifting again a few weeks ago figuring by now my shoulder is healed, but yesterday I was bench pressing and blew out my right shoulder AGAIN. I'm so fucking pissed, and now I have to go to the doctor this morning and probably hear that I need surgery. I'm so angry about it in fact that I feel like having them cut open my shoulder just to spite it, and the whole fixing it thing is a nice bonus.

I respect your point of view on the religion thing Peps, but I completely disagree that you've provided "evidence" that God does not exist. You've provided circumstancial evidence based on the small amount of knowledge we all have about the universe. Throughout history people have come to logical conclusions about things that were later proven wrong as new evidence became available. Now I'm certainly not saying we should just abandon logic, because in most cases it's the best shot we have at figuring things out, but part of logic is knowing when we have too little info to try to prove something through logic.

And about the religion giving people power thing, I didn't say the only successful people in the world are those who have faith, I said that most people are stronger when they have faith in a higher power than when they don't, and most people can do things when they have faith that they couldn't without it. For every one athiest that does great things there's a thousand people that attribute at least part of their success to their faith in a higher power. I agree with Calliander that believing in religion and believing in a higher power are separate things, as I personally despise organized religion but still have strong faith in God. Organized religion is corrupted and twisted by centuries of human beings abusing their power and trying to control how people think.

FUCK THE MEDIA AND FUCK CUBA

What the fuck is all this bullshit? Why do I have to have whatever I'm watching on TV updated every fucking hour on the fucking hour for "We bring you a special news update, Elian Gonzalez just took a shit. Our own Latisha Yolanda Hernandosmitalez is live at the scene with pictures" Why should I care about some 6 year old little turd so much that I want to hear about every miniscule little fucking detail of his useless life!! If he was some 40 year old bearded dude named Paco would we be hearing all this shit about him? NO!!!!! At least if he was said bearded dude it'd be cooler to see him pasted on everything and hear him talk, and instead of all these people giving him toys and spoiling the fuck out of him they'd be giving him cigars and booze and hookers.

And you know what? Cuba is shit for being such a toilet. A toilet filled with shit. And Castro is the king piece of shit, a really old hard piece of shit that won't flush. I think we should just drop a huge fucking nuke on Cuba, then Elian won't be in the media anymore because he won't be able to go back to Cuba, it'll be destroyed!!!!! Or we could send him back to the site where that piece of shit country once was and the radiation will turn him into a mutant, maybe a cool mutant like the ones in Marvel's X-Men. The comic though, not the fucking cunt ass upcoming movie. What the fuck is all this bullshit?
