I love FPS games, but since I have only use of one hand right now I won't be playing any games anytime soon. Hobbies? Yes, hobbies are great for giving you something to look forward to, but does it fill the space on the To be or Not to Be area? For some yes, for others...not enough.
COD2? I was still playing the 1st one, which is still really fun. UT2007? I didnt even know that they were going to bring that out! Quake4? I had stopped playing Quake 3 and stuck with Half-life2 for my death match. Times are really changing faster than I can keep up. God? Thats an issue that my mental congress is still arguing over.
P.S. I never even thought of it, thanks for bringing it up...I'M NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO PLAY ONLINE GAMES FOR A WHILE!!!!! *SOB* ARRRRGGHHHH!!!!! OMG!

When you 'reply with quote' you probably accidentally erased or typed over one of the 'tags' that signify the beginning and end of the quoted text. The beginning tag for a section is marked by square brackets '[' and ']' and the end tag for a section also has a backslash '/'(or is it forward slash? I can never remember) after the first square bracket.
Er...not that you were really asking for that much detail...
Anyway...nice to have you back...now...on the forum.

The Quote block has been jammed on by my signicture picture. If you put a space between the [[]/B[]][[]/QUOTE[]] bit and the picture URL that should sort it.

Okay, I think I got it right!
How are you doing Citizen? Still afraid to talk to the crazy person because it might mess with your rep? Anyway, I'm watching Aliens 2 right now and my fav scene is on....the dropship scene. I luv it. Too bad they all get wasted by the aliens, but that dropship scene is always good for the old ego. LOL!

If that was true I'd have to stop talking to myself in the mirror.

'Tis a good film, directed by James Cameron while he was still good and not the big headed waster that inflicted Titanic on the world.
A film that I wish had lived up to it's namesake.
"Somebody wake up Hicks."
Cause I can't, I've got to leave for work, oh now...

Actually one of the great things about the movie is how the characters face their deaths. Ripley asks Hicks to kill her before she can be taken by the aliens. He tells her if it comes down to it he'll do both of them. Hell yeah! Hudson whines and complains throughout the movie but goes out like a man. BTW Bill Paxton was awesome in that role. Vasquez is one of the best kickass characters ever! She even helps that pussy lieutentant to have a heroic death.

You again!!! The Citizen! Speaking to me? Next time I'll throw myself in front of a train if this is what it takes.
I’m fairing well I guess. If I’m not sleeping, I’m watching movies. I seem to either go for an Audrey Hepburn tear-jerker, or I watch an action packed film where some little guy goes up against an evil empire.
Oh, so you are going to occasionally talk to the crazy person? This is a good thing, but as for yourself…you are anything but crazy and the choosy mothers of JIFF tend to agree with me on this particular point.
Titanic? LoL! Titanic was a good movie and I loved it. So what if it was an overly dramatic film? It was a good movie, and was quite watchable (is that a word?) in its own right. Though I didn’t really much care for the lead actor dying the way he did. A good man dies for his woman, but I felt his death was so unnecessary. Who really knows, but I’m glad I wasn’t on that ship!

Next movie is The mask of Zorro. I luv Zorro!

Ripley and Vasquez are still my main-stay heros to this day. I love the way Vasquez has the words "adios" painted on her smart-gun. When I 1st saw that I laughed forever. It was a nice touch to a great character.

Don't do that! It's all fun and games until someone ends up splattered over the 08:20 intercity and people end up late for work.

Wibble!
How about now?
Who in the sphincter of hell are the mothers of JIFF?

It was more turning pretty much the worst maritime disasters in history where thousands died, into a love story. A fairly cliche and lame love story.
I mean really, they're on a ship that's sinking where thousands died, do we really need some nut case running around with a gun to give the story some drama and peril?
I personally think A Night to Remember ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051994/ ) is better, despite being black and white and made in the fifties.

Definitely a good thing River. You had us worried. It is good to have you home.
I am glad that your attempt failed. You failed for a reason. I am not one to impose my beliefs on anyone, but I will simply say that you were not meant to die so you are still here. I think you should look upon this as a chance at a fresh start. Put all of these thoughts of suicide out of your mind and focus on healing. You have friends here and people who are willing to listen, to try to help you. I'm no professional, but I am told I am a really good listener. I imagine I am not the only one here.
If you want to talk, go right ahead, we'll listen. If you want advise we can offer it, but only if you want it. No one is going to judge you or push you to do anything you don't want to.
My best friend committed suicide when I was in high school. I have suffered bouts of depression that would make a goth seem like a bubbly, chipper person, and like many I have considered suicide. I never went down that road. Let's just say it is not in my nature. Being Scottish I am just too damn stubborn to die. I'd rather fight and spit in the eye of whatever is bothering me than to give in to it.
If you need us we are here. Just remember you have friends, family really, here on this site. We browncoats stick together & we look out for our own.
Just keep flyin' River. That's what matters.
