Hard to gather up peeps for some good ol' fashion mods like Zombie Panic Source... that and sometimes L4D2.

Really need to get Pipski and two others to do some hardcore campaigns in L4D2.

If I were to choke a smurf, I'd ask it for its bank account number then demand where it lives so I could pillage it first then burn later... chose not to care about the color of a smurf being choked.

How are there still Amish? You'd think the gene pool would have dried up, which means that people actually choose to become Amish. Really?

Maybe they're the people abducting instead of UFO's/little green men.

The families have like 18 kids each. They are growing out of control actually, science.

Oh sit

I stand corrected. They have given up.

18 kids. I'm sure this isn't the wife's idea.

So I'm proud of myself today because I successfully did some troubleshooting on my PC and got my daughter's new Cleopatra game to work. It was her birthday gift and I've been trying to get the dang thing to run for the past two hours. And I did it!
I've always been a mac person and I use the PC only for gaming. Having to do anything other than turn the thing on feels like I'm wandering into complete foreign territory where I don't speak the language. I'm afraid to change anything for fear the fickle thing will just stop functioning altogether. But there was an incompatibility with the version of Adobe FlashPlayer I had on there and I finally figured it out. Woot.
Next I think I'm going to learn French.

Hehe grats Bina. It's quite satisfying solving a pc problem on your own.

French sucks, learn spanish, or italien, or german.

But I've already studied all of those. I love languages. But French intimidates me almost as much as a pc.

I went to Montreal last week and hated the fact that I couldn't understand a word people were saying beyond Bon Jour.

I'm taking Latin. I'm in Latin III this year. Helpful if you are into learning English roots. It also helps with other foreign languages.

You'll find once you learn French that the average person in Montreal doesn't even speak it. Some people call it Franglais, others who are proud of said butchery of a language call it Quebecoise!!!

I can't speak in comparison to other languages (although I'd love to pick up Spanish) but French is a pain to learn.

If you dont mind me asking, where abouts in MTL were you?

I stayed at a hotel on Rene-Levesque, near the Chinese Quarter. I have a friend who lives nearby who gave me an informal tour of the city. I hadn't been there in 10 years. It makes a great impression.\

Kudos on the Latin, Cofl. That definitely sounds like a challenge.

Latin is certainly a long while challenge. :{ I failed my Latin class when I took it but the one thing I learned was... well. I found learning other European languages a tad bit easier and it's a tad bit amusing trying to pronounce Latin words.

Always good to step out of your comfort zone and do things that's either difficult yet fun or just plain amusingly frustrating. Which is in fact what I'm doing right now... with practicing modding Fallout 3 in order to mod Fallout New Vegas!!

Hah! Funny post, frosti. Bah... for about 3 months I had to endure without ANY access to computers including phones... yes smart phones CAN be considered or regarded as miniature computers. Had to satisfy my boredom by driving all around the area and occasionally driving up and down from CA to WA. Whoopie! *cough* Not a fan of Halo except for the novels and the first.
