I have no problem with people using "holiday" either, as dissent said--its root is from "holy day". Christmas has some very interesting mixed roots. What I DON'T like is the rabid commercialization of the Christmas holiday. Retailers nowdays are advertising along the lines of &qu...

I have most of the website done. The site is coded pretty much entirely in HTML, and all of the page extensions except for three are .htm. There are three .asp pages--the ASP language is only used to create a secure login page, allowing for a restricted access part of the site requiring a password t...

The shadowing and detail on these lights is WAY too complex to be an edit--if it WAS an edit, the people putting it together would have had to spend more time editing it than they would have spent simply putting the lights up and sequencing them via computer. But yeah... methinks that this guy is A....

Oh..nice looking job there Stryker...hmmm, I just don't get the wood tho'...seems,ummm...archaic? :P My whole theme was kind of a contrast of time periods...

Depends on the time this weekend, but I'm up for it.

Haha, that ship on the lower right was actually designed for D3--it was one of my first ones, thus the awful texture job.

What's wrong with the wood paneling? o_O

Being (if I do say so myself) a fairly skilled modder, I can safely say that this looks very fun, and very well-made. Excellent work! I'll try it out as soon as I get a chance.

I narrowed down my total number of desktop icons from about 384 to 13. My old monitor died, leaving me whimpering along on a 15-inch flatpanel that only supports 1024x768 screen resolution. Being used to 1600x1200+, this was, needless to say, a drastic shock. :P However, it finally spurred me to cle...

Well, look at it this way: Water is H2O. The goal is oxygen. We know how to separate hydrogen from oxygen. All these things do is use that process to split off the oxygen, then use it for the diver. The DISADVANTAGE is the amount of energy required to perform this function--you'll have to carry a bu...

I'll tell ya what--you could soften the blows a lot by wrapping your hands in tape before you fight. Wrap both your hands in tape and wrap the blades of the lightsabers in colored electrical tape (hey, it's rubbery and it's colored, which is what you need). That should reduce the impact of those thi...

Good stuff. Being a trained fencer, this stuff looks more realistic to me than the original Star Wars saberfights. You're actually swinging in a direction that will HIT the other guy if he doesn't defend. You have mastered this art of swordfighting on screen that, to my knowledge, most moviemakers s...

It worked about like this: American people got really, really ticked off at British government. American people think "Hey, British government is a long way off, can't send troops or resources very fast!" American people revolt and blow the heck out of British troops. British government re...

I've always been astounded at how little geography some Americans know. However, invading a country will get the map of said country printed all over TVs, papers, obscure articles in the basement of the local industry planning commission, and other places; thus putting said map into the minds of the...

Foo is a word that can be used to mean anything at any time in any place.

In other words, it's the word. Used in conjunction with normal articles, conjunctions, and prepositions, you could construct an entire sentence using nothing but the word "foo" and variations.

I've studied economics in a limited form as well... Inflation, while inevitably leading to the eventual destruction of a form of currency, will take a *LONG* time to get there if it is controlled. Germany's currency collapsed due to overinflation in the post-WWI era--it was cheaper to wallpaper a ro...

You fit in with:
Buddhism

Your ideals mostly resemble those of the Buddhist faith. Spirituality is the most important thing in your life. You strive to live by all of your ideals, and live a very intellectually focused life.

20% spiritual.
20% faith-oriented.

How the heck did that happen?
