Oh? Which is?
the link's there in my previous post silly 
Hiding your links with smileys is a sure fire way to confuse me. D|
Does anyone know where or how to get a deck of cards that are ONLY jokers without buying 26 decks of cards? -__- Links are very much appreciated.
You can buy a deck of cards at gas stations and such for not even $2, might as well just go for the whole set.

I've had my N64 for ten years, still play it to this day, and have had no problems with it.
I must be lucky. My emulator is laggy, though.
So, what do you all think about Russia invading Georgia like that?
Oh, I have no problems with mine either, I just thought it was odd how my ancient N64 works flawlessly and my emulator is awful/
The only reason I have an emulator is because no place sells N64 games and there are a few I've always wanted to play.

The Wind element better be the best thing ever because god damn, the Swap dungeon really freaking sucks. I need one forsaken small key and I'll have it wrapped up in a few seconds but I can't find this one key for the life of me!
God thing the Mole Mitts are awesome.
EDIT
No! That's not bloody fair! GOD DAMN!

. . . and arche's alive!Yes, I'm still alive. Update on me:
New job - almost three months...after 3 months, I can show off my bad side
nice office with the job - finally have a decent view of a building that's been demolished. I got to see it go down in a week - pretty nice how they tore it down. I'm enjoying my view of debris
. Down side is my office is on the same path as the medivac helipad for the hospital next door - damn thing is loud! Too many people need to be medivaced into the hospital next door.I've been better at reading my greek new testament. Using my analytic lexicon with all those pesky words used less than 50 times. Plus the words used more than 50 are in the apendex. If only Paul wrote better - the guy liked to cram so many words between the definite article and the particple. John was so much better.
Looked at my theological german reader again. Reminded of how much I've forgotten about german. I miss german though. I really want to learn it again, but my only real time to learn is on the train.
Started looking into learning some Japanese - something I swore I wouldn't do. I guess I don't like languages that have secrets so I started to learn the hiragana. I'm starting to get the katakana and some kanji. I don't really care about speaking it, but it's fun to recognize some things. The grammar is interesting from what I've seen so far. I don't like honorifics and the whole male/female differences. I'm just too american that way.
Baby is now 14 months and walking around. She's not talking words much, but likes sounds. The older one is 8 and driving me nuts - but that's what I love about her.
Aniversary is tomorrow - 13 years. My wife has to work tomorrow night, so we won't be able to do anything - in fact we'll probably only see each other for less than an hour tomorrow.
I'm also thinking of reading up on medival philosophy again. For some reason it calls to me, but I don't feel like carrying the extra book on the train. I just loved how those who wanted to mimic Aristotle when they actually mis-attributed neo-platonic texts to Aristotle LOL.
that's more than anyone wanted to know.
Hum bug! No one is streaming Sci-Fi so poor little ol' me can't6 watch Dubben Lagann.

Finished GunBuster today.
Great ending, "Coach" was awesome, drama was stupid and funny (I'm told this was intended) and the cast wasn't terrible. Fansercive was kind stupid though. Not bad over all but nothing great. Interesting to see how Gainax have progressed if nothing else.
Next up: Diebuster.

It has the normal MPC window but the "screen" is black so I only get audio and it opens up another window to play the video. I know there's a way to have it work in a more logical manner.
Also I get some exam results tomorrow. Luckily they aren't to important, I just need t get E's or better which should be a lock.

Guys, I miss it when we used to have awesome discussions about theoretical cartoon incest, or having snarky flamewars over who likes watching animu buttsecks and who doesn't.
Why you all leave me? :<

Animu buttsecks is gay and so are the people who watch it.
AND?
Errm...
That's bad because it's icky? ADAM AND EVE, NOT ADAM AND STEVE!

Actually, it is Adam and Steve. They changed it in the KJV. It was a part of England's longstanding complex of shame involving their own excessive gayness.
^ ...Right.
Nice sig, Toby-Chan; did you make it yourself?
...All of a sudden, my Frostwire decided to quit starting. Great.

I'm skeptical, but, if it is the real deal...wow; what a world-changing phenomenon that'll be.

Well speaking of Adam and Steve...
....I got myself a job placement! It's at a charity/organisation for gay men, lesbian women, bi n transexuals. Basically it's somewhere for them to go to meet people like them, learn about sexual health, how to stay safe etc. I will be admin but they said they'll need all my media skills so I'll be designing campaign posters and keeping an eye on their online profiles and such. Can't wait to get started and update their bloody website!
I start next Tuesday, by driving test is next Wednesday, arg!

CT's:
-Right there with Blitz on the summer readings. In the order I read mine, they were sad, odd and somewhat plotless, and mildly amusing. And I have to take a test on some part of this reading when school starts.
-I also have summer AP Calculus homework, most of which has basically shown me that I need to remember how to do stuff, or else... Calculus will NOT be fun this year.
-I had a REALLY weird dream last night. Can't remember what it was, but I was really upset from it when I woke up.
-Why oh WHY is it going to hit 90 over the weekend? I have to work on Saturday and Sunday! Well, at least the building is air-conditioned. *knocks on wood and crosses fingers* (Where I live, going into the 90's Fahrenheit is not unheard of, but pretty rare- maybe a week collectively out of the whole summer do we hit temperatures that high. It's horrible because nobody has air conditioning except commercial areas.)

Ah dear God, I start up at college tomorrow. I'm scared to death. Though as of right now, the pros outweigh the cons...I only go three days a week, two of those days I get out one hour earlier than normal schools do, I get an hour long lunch period [as opposed to the barely 30 minute period in high school], and the chances of seeing people I know are high, due to taking general studies.
I'm still nervous, though.
On a lighter note, I'm finally bothering to download Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. I saw the first four or five episodes at places like Veoh and CrapTube, but now I'm gonna stop being lazy and just download the first series in one sitting. Then I'll bother with Zoku.

Is this the kind of conversation that you just jump into?
^ Oh, I know that feeling. I'm about 12 weeks away from finishing high school and I'm absolutely petrified. I still haven't decided if I'm going to go to uni/college or if I should just jump straight into the job market (both seem scary!). Good luck with college! I'm sure you'll love it.

Aw, today a friend gave me a ball for my rat to run around it. At first, when I held it, I thought: "This thing is heavy...Jasper may not be able to move it." But he proved me wrong. He's rolling around everywhere. He especially likes backing the cats up into corners. But he runs into stuff a lot. I guess he needs driving lessons.

I missed that one. T=T
You fence? Cool! I was taking classes until just a couple weeks ago. I quit because the instructor was never on time and wouldn't call ahead of time if he decided not to show up.
@ jacksparrow589
psssh 90 degrees?
That's nothing. Try 112 degrees..< that was a month ago.

Yep. But, wow. The Zagunis and Jacobson bout was frickin' amazing. You can watch it on the NBC Olympics website.
Oh, Ward's going to Duke next year. I live in that area and my friend was like "LET'S STALK HER." XD
I haven't been going to practice because the gym is so hot during the summer. The gear doesn't help, either. :/
Canberra is somewhat awesome, but in comparison to Sydney, it looks like the boondocks. I don't think I've ever seen so much water and grass in one town!!!
We city folks love pointing out every cow, sheep, horse and kangaroo we see from our bus. Fun times ensured.
And I swear, Parliament House is more of a museum than anything else.

Indeed.
Especially when your younger siblings are reciting those quotes every second of the day *twitch*
Obsessed, much?
I don't see what's so great about it. Good effects? Gripping storyline? Heath Ledger? It's a movie I mean, people act as though it's the best thing since sliced bread.
Since I haven't seen The Dark Knight, nor do I have any desire to, I won't comment on that.
Instead...
You know it's excessivley hot in your neighborhood when:
-Even the wind is warm.
-The AC brings the temperature in the car DOWN to 90, so you're still sweating within about 30 seconds of getting in.
-When you pull the key out of the ignition after driving for 3 minutes and it burns your hand.
-All the people who are normally jogging at this time of day were either jogging earlier or aren't at all today because they don't want to suffer heat stroke.

I personally don't think it would be doing so well as it is without Heath Ledger kicking it. I mean, I'm certain the movie is good, and that it would still be a box-office hit were he still alive...but I don't think it would be doing as phenomenally well as it is if it wasn't his final film.
Myself? I plan on seeing it here soon, just so I don't feel so left out. I also plan on going around saying how badly I despise it, whether or not I actually wind up liking it or not, just to tick off 95 percent of the world's population.

I'm not so sure about this. The first one did really well and people were looking forward to the Joker long before Heath kicked the bucket (also it's not his last film, just the last one he fully completed.)
One of my friends who saw the movie loved it, but she thought the whole Joker phenomenon going on right now is/was a bit much. Whether or not she really thought it deserved it, though, I don't know. I'll have to ask her when I can.

Had Heath not died, the film definitely would have been successful, but you have to admit that it has been severely over-hyped because of his death. I've seriously never seen the world act so freakin' excited about a Batman movie before.
I'm going to wait a little longer before I see it. I want to re-watch the Jack Nicholson Batman before I see it so I can compare and contrast (because I'm just a geek like that). I also haven't seen the first Christian Bale Batman movie yet (I know, cardinal sin), so I should probably go see that.
I've had enough of Batman and Spiderman. I vote next movie is about The Green Lantern.
Wow, I haven't posted here in a long time. D:
I'm hating Disney right now. D< Releasing a Nightmare Before Christmas special edition after years of making it out of reaches for people in video stores and hard to find in video rental stores is not going to make me feel any better that my parents finally managed to get a hold of the DVD just last Christmas after frantically searching for it for months for me. And NOW they're releasing the 2-disc edition. Great, just great. D:
Besides that, I'm doing really well. I'm so excited for the first day of school in two weeks! XD
