Holy fear-mongering, Batman! The H-Bomb is coming! (Apparently that's H as in Human as in suicide bomber.) I love World Net Daily. Where else can you learn such wholesome ideas? Christmas is under attack, so I hear. Also, there's a trend of moral decay in our society that must be stopped at all costs, and the only solution is the radical evangelization of society, which is not at all similar to what the mullahs said about and implemented in Iranian society in the 80s. (Apparently there was a time when we were more moral than we are now. This is news to me, but what do I know, I'm just a *gasp* liberal.)
Oh, and Tony, that's awesome. Do they only play that once at that time, though? Or is it available in their 'flash-magazine' format all week?

Paras, bear in mind that you and I fully intend to support the profitability and commodification of a very literal virtual-real-estate (and likely institute some sort of virutal currency) should we manage to complete that project I suggested. We will make real money off of virtual money. Awesome, no? It's like printing your own dollar bills and exchanging them at the bank for actual Canadian currency. Can't do that shit nowhere but the internet. I LOVE IT.

heureux is 'happy' not 'hero' you jackass. A lot of french words, like idiot, for example, are the exact same or very similar in English... like 'héro' so there... imbécile :P

Do you need me to troubleshoot names? It is what I was made for.

Yes, alison, I am a hero.
So there's a couple of guys here working on a scripting language for Neverwinter Nights, so you can create your own levels. The tool that they're writing involves many a beta version, and rather than continuing to number them, they are coming up with clever (?) names for the beta versions. The last one they used was beta beta bo beta. Now, because a previous version was named beta beta beta, someone suggested using war movies as a theme. (Tora Tora Tora). Peering into the sad, sad world of geek humour, some of the names that resulted:
- Beta Beta Beta
- Beta over the River Beta
- Dr. Strangebeta; or how I learned to stop worrying and love the beta
- Full Beta Jacket

et donc, tu es correct. es-tu heureux? Je ne veut pas penser du forme correct des phrases français maintenant parce-que j'ai un composition des etudes du femmes d'ecrire.
You know what's a problem? When you configure your keyboard to allow for accents etc, you use the ability to have square brackets, question marks and apostrophes. And aside from memorizing all the alt-0233 codes for the accented letters, I don't really know what to do, but it sure is frustrating.
Anywho, back to paper.
