The mention of the real estate bubble reminded me of a time where I watched advertised prices on new homes go from the 120s to the 180s almost over night...I knew then something was amiss.

Obama...said in an interview with CNN that he had reservations about a vote by mail. "I think there's some concerns in terms of making sure that whatever we do is fair, and that votes are properly counted and the logistics make sense," he said.

(12) Vote by Mail allows voters to educate themselves because they receive ballots well before election day, which provides them with ample time to research issues, study ballots, and deliberate in a way that is not possible at a polling place.

Sounds to me like 1) he thinks that a REvote may be construed as UNFAIR...I tend to think this may be an accurate way to phrase it...both states had their elections already. Both states new what the DNC expected and for whatever reason decided to hold their elections earlier then they agreed now both states must face the consequences of their decision to hold their elections ahead of the previously agreed date... this is only my opinion.

as for the second part I quoted, well the bolded part explains itself...BEFORE election day, which was weeks ago.

I would venture to guess the point is how Mexico treats the illegal immigrants to their country while b##tching about the way we treat those who come here, which seems rather civil comparatively.

I will not vote for McCain...I find his work ethics to be lacking... lucky for him, he's not "my" senator.

I will not vote for Clinton...don't like her 1 bit!

I would vote for Obama..

so if it is McCain vs. Clinton I'll write in Mickey Mouse...if I have to!

This before or after she plays "clap, clap, point, point"?

I just saw on Yahoo (I cannot post it here at work, copy/paste doesn't work ) she has officially lost the children to K-Fed...poor girl.

then again, it is her fault ... so to speak.

oooh ctrl - c works! spears looses custody to K-Fed

yes, let's give all the inmates swords!

I know, coccaine is not the same but 4 little words come to mind:

There's Something About Mary...

Sorry folks, I am falling behind

Just bought a new house and am in the process of painting and recarpeting and whatnot...soon as I am done with that and the move...then I'll TRY to catch up!

Marc

Just letting you all know!

Someone with too muich time on their hands? =O

it is a neat idea though!

I almost gave WOW a try. Instead, my cousin got me into FFXI. It was fun, but too much time waiting for a Party to form and I got tired of it and quit.

Come to WoW, now! I soloed my way up to 67 on my "main" server. Been playing stormrage when I have a little time which now is ALL I have to play...2 words, new house!

Marc

I kinda always felt "Avoid Death" was a good phrase to live by...

Ok, I'm up to 15g and itching to get our charter

Names so far...from me with a major contribution:

VJ Crew - I liked it

Gumdrops and Unicorns

Any other ideas...I'll start a poll when we get a few of them!

Marc

I am up to 7g atm, still waiting on a guild name!

Marc

You do realize that these are the same "experts" that said Saddam had WMD's don't you?

Perhaps, remember the claim that Iraq had mobile WMD factories (remember Colin Powell and the drawings of those little trucks?) AND (the big one here) a strong tie to AQ... both of which the administration touted as fact, both were proven wrong by the intel experts but remainded highly spewed by the administration and used as reasons to invade.

I have some kind of technical problem at the moment...I keep getting disconnected every I log on so havent been online since yesterday....I do have 9g towards the guild tho I have been getting paid to sign guild charters ...seems like everyone wants a new guild bank for their alts lately

Any ideas for the guild name? Maybe sometime over the weekend we can set a time to meet up in game...I know it's a busy time of the year for most of us, but we can give it a go!

I've done that a couple times, mostly been selling copper bars....I'm up to 5g though.

other then the casual mention of needing time to save for the fees, I'm surprised no one in the article said "just a way for the USCIS to make a buck"

other then that I don't have much to add on this...I agree...no photo on the Green Card = not a good idea.

Marc

just a bump and a message, the old man rogue is still young but my professions are skinning and mining, currently working on scraping up enough gold to get us an actual guild going

I will get on tomorrow, I am having probs with my new computer playing games but will use the hubbys old one tomorrow to log on and set up a toon.

I am sitting in SW at lvl 10. Spoke with Drew earlier ingame. Had a random guy give me 5g (noooooooo.....I wasn't begging or providing nekkid NE lap dances ). So I lvled up my tailoring and sent you all some bags.

So I was going to go take a nap before I have to go to work tonight and I just exited from playing on my usual server and came here...thought Hmmm maybe someone is online now but no one I know....

thanks for the bags and elixir though =)

Marc

my mother sent me an email about sears being one company that treats our soldiers right...snopes verifies it!

sears on snopes

just because I don't agree with our reasons for being in Iraq, I do believe our troops deserve our support...they didn't decide to attack Iraq, their boss did.

Delarl, the old man rogue

Aw, how come you logged off as soon as I messaged you? Anyway, everyone get on, I'm already to level 6 Not planning on making it a hardcore raiding guild or anything, but would just be cool to play WoW with each other once in a while since we're all on it anyway. Stormrage, alliance side, PM Demolith or send me an AIM or MSN or even message me on VJ if you're going to make a character. We need 10 toons to make a guild. I can make it and hand over leadership if someone is actually active on this server.

not tonight but I will...*notes stormrage*

Most likely name will be lyublyu

I know I'm a little late in the thread but...

When I played EverQuest, I followed some message boards for that game...we had a saying if you did something stupid you page 8'd...

someone tried what people described earlier, 2 accounts on the board (ip addys later confirmed) but on page 8 of the thread the poster posted as ID #2 thinking they were logged on as ID #1!

Been a couple days since I read the story but as I recall, the man said "I'm a firefighter", since this place was close to the station, how hard is it to believe these (alleged) 6 guys knew where they needed to go to get the 1 firefighter?

on this I would agree, not all the facts are in the story but if you live in Boston you might know the area and need not be told the distance between the place of the initial confrontation and where the stabbing occurred, those of us who do not live in the area...that fact COULD be important.

What is PvE?

I was not asking people to move existing toons to one server, I just figured we could all start new ones and level together.

Player vs Environment - Focus is on leveling and grouping together to take on the game monsters.

Player vs Player allows for you to attack and mess around with players of the opposing faction in neutral lands or if they are in your faction controlled areas.

WoW is pretty much known as 'carebear,' in that there is no real loss to players killed besides frustration and game time.

So is PvE known as a normal relm?

2 types of PvE realms, general and role play (RP). For instance, Sentinels is a RP realm, you cant use outlandish or non game related names of toons or guild. ie you cannot name your toon, Ibusturazz on this server. You can however name a guild "Warhammer Bound" and get away with it due to the fact that "warhammer" is a type of mace in this game. hehe

Yes Normal = PvE (a.k.a. "carebear"

PvP (Player versus Player) is a much tougher ruleset in that the opposing factions (player) can attack you in certain areas...anyone besides me ever play on a PvP server?

Marc

btw, Warhammer is a place and a group of Dwarves...mostly in the Outlands (Shadowmoon), mostlikely a guild named "Warhammer Bound" would use that versus bound for a "warhammer"
