The Highlander Collectible Card Game has been experiencing a bit of turmoil over the past year or so, which is odd since it was out of print for so long. Long considered one of the "dead" CCGs glutting the after-market, the Highlander CCG has enjoyed a very small but incredibly loyal fan base that have stuck with the game for nearly 10 years of inactivity.

The acting in The Marine was good? Is John Cena included in that statement? I didn't have time to see it because the theater here, near base, only carried it for one week . One week near a military base. Then again, I think 'The Prestige' had a similar time run here. Wtvr.

Sounds like you worked for your dinner Oh, sure, but I was happy to do it. Justin's like a brother to me, and that's actually the explanation we provided to the neighbor kids when they asked. "Is he your brother?" "Yeah, something like that." <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center bg

I visited a family of friends that I will likely not see for at least a year, and possibly several. We had a very nice Thanksgiving dinner, and the I visited them for a few days, Thursday through Saturday. I helped my friend haul lumber and cement mix, a rented two-man auger, and a wheelbarrow from various stores to his home. We dug all the post holes and s

NBS - What is ya'll a contraction of, then? You'uns is "you ones" (yes, 'one' is pluralized in this case), and y'all is "you all." The apostrophe in these cases is not necessarily a full glottal stop, but it's pronounced much like the colloquial Arabic rendering of the 'hamza' (glottal stop). y'all : yi-all ya'll : yaw-il

Mincemeat pies and scones? Good LORD, you're British sometimes. Also, you mispelled y'all (proper contraction of "you" and "all"), which at least identifies you further North than the Mason-Dixon. How the heck can you be a Brit and a Yankee at the same time?!?

Liar! I fully expected you to be gone longer. Guess I have to wait until March... My first thought upon seeing your title: "So, you did grow the moustache?" If you need anything even remotely official, feel free to hit up my AKO address. You should be able to figure it out. edit: And, crap, I forgot it was you in addition to Greywar yesterday. I woulda sent you an email, but... Happy birthday.

Scene: SSG Doe surveys his soldiers mounting a house clearing operation during nighttime operations. His squad leader is down in the prone, not yelling orders to his subordinate team leaders. The Staff Sergeant squats down to address the student, when... RRRRRRIIIIP! That was two weeks ago, and I hadn't given it another th

Just a minor note from this weekend. Actually, I've been doing this for some time and just hadn't mentioned it. Substituting thawed frozen pre-cooked shrimp for the canned tuna in Tuna Helper is a bit hit. Also, adding in a portion of frozen peas doesn't seem to faze them at all. Other food bits: I've been tearing through Lean Cuisines and fresh pe

Here's to getting older, huh? I have similar problems with tolerances for sleep deprivation, alcohol and the effects certain foods have on me.

that saved me the mocking that I would have recieved had anyone witnessed me blowing a fuse. I've been taking constructive criticism very well the past year or so, but it really riles me to have a 6-year old point out an obvious mistake I've just made. I hadn't really considered it mocking (and I'm cer

HEY! You promised you were leaving! Don't throw up outside of your mouth, if you can help it. Some might get caught in your 'stache.

Hugging him and trying to explain it at all would've both alienated him and probably ruined what you had. Casual contact of flirtation is, in this way, better than a full-fledged relationship. Your mind, your imagination, will make it so much better than it might have been otherwise, filling in possible bad details with positive ones... like with my crush. Easier to fool myse

I fall in love all the time . Some might think it's strange... I believe in love at first sight, but that's not what I'm talking about. I mean, I love everyone, or at least I start off in that direction. The whole Christian upbringing bit, and the minor born-again Catholic thing I am/was going through. But... Man, I've been lonely. And it'

I think the most recent, closest thing I had to this experience was on Saturday, Veteran's Day. I had put a load of laundry in the drier and went out for the day (shopping, mostly). When I returned, I realized that I had forgotten the laundry in the drier. Someone had folded it all and laid it out neatly. Maybe they saw the boys' clothing mixed in, or they saw my Army PT gear and decided to help. Either way, it was unexpected, I was unable

The latest truth.org commercial concentrates on Sodium Hydroxide. "It's in hair removal products and cigarettes! That means cigarettes are bad for you!" Assclowns, WATER is also an ingredient in Nair! Just because it's part of something that is harmful to you doesn't mean that particular thing is harmful to you. Sodium Hydroxide is also mor

As obviously Jewish as his origins may be, the modern Superman is not Jewish. In fact, while the themes you have identified all came pretty much directly from a Jewish mindset and lore, even in the early stories he would not have been identified as "Jewish" (possibly because it might turn many readers off, sadly). This would be further reflected in the works of the other greats you have mentioned; very few comic book characters are "actually"
