These blogs.

Why do people harass people's blog. I mean honestly if the person takes time to actually write these things, give them some credit at least. No one writes these things in order to be harassed but in order to express their opinions and/or beliefs. Nobody writes a pure blog without any mistakes or faults. That persons beliefs in that blog could be different from yours. So please unless its your blog, stop harassing the person who wrote it. They could have put a large amount of time and effort into

The Journal of an Urban Adventurer; #1: "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...."

At 5:41 am I stopped caring. The Struggle of Spring was over. I had lost. Defeated by my own hand. The totality of defeat was irrefutable, as was my own damning part in it. The crushing despair and self pity usually accompanying such events did not come this time, only a eerily silent void of emotional nothingness. There was nothing, I literally did not care about anything at all. I slumped back into the pillow of my girlfriend's bed, head feeling as though it were stuffed tight with cotton, an

That one thread

So, that was a great thread. You know the one. Tons of great puns are made. A guy from NoR makes one particularly tasteless pun and can't quite grasp why he got such a negative reaction. kingzog raging uncontrollably. Oh, and it made me bother to go to that leaks site to see all the wonderful offerings from NoR's forum. I don't know that I believe that Lynch fellow was *actually* a member of NoR, though. Regardless, I never heard of the guy (the WN leader, that is, assuming they are two d

Get thee to a punnery.

So, I decided to wholly subjectively rank some the lines people came up with last night. Good ones: Terrible ones: And last but not least, Schattenman had the best single post. Just because of the image. Wouldn't normally post-mortem something that's still going, but it's gone the way of every other forum thread ever. Tip of the hat to the people who made good ones. You are all terrible people, but terrible in a way that makes me laugh. Wag of the finger to Xiph, SJ, and SF Austi

Attention: The Last Republic

Hey, The Last Remnants here, just wanted to say hello to our fellow acronym buddies! You may get pissed off about us using this acronym all you want. It isn't going to change a thing. You can go off about how many treaties you have, how many blocs you have but hey, we really don't give a flying $%&@. If you want to start something serious over three little letters, be my guest but I tell you now that you will not succeed. That is all. Should be noted that I am not government and that I m

The Journal of an Urban Adventurer; #12: Beans, Beans, the Magical Fruit.

*Excerpts from a book I'm writing, all of it's true. I'm going to work my entries back to #1 in the coming days, and then forward again. -Oo_____________________________________oO- After about four hours sleep, I get up to help the Girlfriend work on her old apartment. Sleep in the car was poor and I required lots of coffee. On the upside, she fed me some breakfast, assuaging the gnawing hunger that had grown even stronger from the night before. Afterward I made my way downtown towards

I've Never Done a 'Callout' Before. Am I Doing It Right?

When I posted my musings on having torn my rotator cuff, I didn't expect someone to wander in and call me a liar over something completely unrelated. Behold Jaiar, proud member of the New Pacific Order: Wait, what? I post a story about my idiotic stunt that injured my shoulder and my previous experiences with Canada's appalling healthcare system and someone I've never heard of wanders in, calls me a liar about something that I posted in the picture thread some time ago and expects me not to r

Together we will...

Here is an essay i wrote for english class back in october, pretty good essay. Got an A on it. Together We Will Fail To Succeed… Death. Despair. Destruction. These words travel throughout the world every day. They define the bases of societies and peoples downfall. These words have existed all throughout history, their meaning followed through, some caused by individuals ,but most caused by groups of people. Tragic things happen to everyone, it can not be avoided. Everyone will fail, whether

Religion thing for a friend (wrote in 15 min)

What is the origin of religion? Where do the different religious affiliations come from? Where are they going? Nobody knows the exact truth to any of these. But the idea of a certain human being along with its conscience can determine this. Every person in the entire world has some views on religion. Every single religion is interpreted different. Each individual of that religion can even interpret their own religion different than others of that same affiliation. Whether they know it or not eve

Smashed Bottles Redux

Recently, I reported on my little Goped adventure; the one that ended with my picking bits of the road out of my shredded flesh. At the time I said: My concern was that I couldn't raise my right arm more than ninety degrees relative to the rest of my body. A few days later and I still couldn't. This wasn't owing to any pain -- although there was still plenty of that -- but rather because I simply couldn't do it. My arm would go up, and yes it would hurt while doing so, but it would abruptly s

Suggestions on practical ways to love your neighbour

I was thinking: I believe that we should love our neighbour, but what does that actually mean? Are my beliefs detached from day to day life? It's really easy to preach unconditional love at people, or to make statements like 'you should love everyone', but do I just have my head in the clouds? There are dramatic things like that now-famous picture of Christians standing and protecting Muslims while at prayer in the recent Egyptian revolutions, but that’s not an opportunity we’re likely to get ev

Unfortunate Update - Vasilios N

I posted a couple of months back about the vessel "Vasilios N", whose crew brought her safely from Misurata to international waters using only celestial navigation. The ship had been detained at Misurata for debts unpaid by the vessel owners Pantravel & Shipping located in Brindisi, Italy Since that time the ship and crew have been held at anchor at Valletta, Malta. P&S has not been forthcoming with the $$$ needed to repatriate the crew of six Georgians, three Ukrainians, and one

Gene Simmons vs. Shannon Tweed

If you have a television you've no doubt heard about the nonsense going on between Gene Simmons and his long-time live-in mannequin, Shannon Tweed. If not, here's a reasonably short clip that will bring you up to speed. I'm not buying it. Not for a second. Let me tell you what I think of Gene Simmons. The more I learn about him, the less I like him. He is a complete scumbag. His marketing skills are legendary, but this is more than offset by the fact of his being a really lousy human being. I

Admiration denied.

For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.-Sun Tsu In the last conflict, I believe the the NPO had reached an accommodation with allies and would not enter. Since military acumen I have always admired and Doomhouse had achieved that what the above quote mentions, I thought I would post a congratualation post. Turned out to be harder than I imagined.

The Stanley

As a loyal Oilers fan, I've been cheering against the Canucks since Round 1. Beyond that, the Bruins are a really easy team to cheer for, so I'm pretty happy tonight. The Bruins just ended a 39 year Cup Drought, and moved past my Oilers to be alone in 4th place for Most Cups Won. A more relevant count, I think, is the number of pennants (Conference Championships) won since expansion took place in 1967. In that number, Boston sits tied with Philadelphia for second place, while my Oilers are in fo

Exodus: Worst Alliance or Worstest Alliance?

First off, hello and welcome to my blog. This is my first time, so please be gentle. And now, onto my story. You see, I just came home from a short vacation and checked my nation's inbox to find three PM's waiting for me: A trade offer, an aid offer from a tech deal and one titled "Condolences from Exodus". This one rather confused and worried me as I wasn't aware anything terrible had happened to me lately. The text was as follows: wat. I mean, seriously. Not only are you attempting to recru

Thoughts on the most recent episode of GoT.

Today I had my first complaint about how the show covered the events of the books. Although I thought the battle with Robb and Jaime was done well enough, I was severely disappointed by the one from Tyrion's point of view. I sincerely hope that this is not a continuing trend where HBO skips over the battles. Does anyone else think they should have at least shown some of it?

"The One"

And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land Called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their Will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that Person known as "The One." He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He Hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you." My lack Of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my Association with evil doers are of no consequ

Smashed Bottles

Last weekend, emboldened by White Sambuca, I attempted a daring maneuver while riding a friend's Goped. I attempted a jump of sorts. I will not describe it, lest someone else copy it and then try to sue me for encouraging them. By the way, did anyone know that Goped's aren't built for jumping? Long story short....I ended up going over the handlebars and landing quite roughly on asphalt. Of course I was wearing a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads and gloves? OK, I lie. My protection consisted of a
