Reply to The Sims 2: in PC Gaming JoeUser Forums

I wish there was more objects for downloading. Like your friends, I think I like the building and the decorating more than I like playing the sims themselves.

Reply to Who would use a title like this??? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I think no 6 is by Gideon and I've seen some of those other titles but can't recall by whom. I would like to know where you get them, I might have missed them because they were put up before I discovered this place.

Reply to Do YOU really care? in Blogging JoeUser Forums

You shouldn't waste your time being frustrated with people who don't care, you are not going to be able to change their minds anyway. If people are delibrately making you mad somehow, maybe they are just trying to push your buttons and see how you react. You can't change others sometimes, all you can do is decide how you want to react. Not everyone comes online to m

Reply to Can you let go...? in Misc JoeUser Forums

>> I'm kinda dissapointed that no one has commented My dear friend, we are not living in the same time zone. I'm at work and the Americans are most probably sleeping at this hour. And yes I do see your point. Preoccupation with hate is destructive to self. Long term unresolved anger can lead to hatred. I do h

Reply to Five and a Half More Hours in Misc JoeUser Forums

>> My neighbor's husband is in Iraq (has been for around 7 or 8 months now) and he is probably not going to get R&R, and I feel so guilty that my husband is getting it, and I can't understand how she can do all these things for me without feeling hurt and resentful. I am amazed at the love and kindness she has shown me. She is such a beautiful, selfless person. ... That's really nice. >> I can't believe that I will be seeing him agai

Reply to I've Been Had in Laptops JoeUser Forums

I've been swindled on my first desktop ten years ago. I can't remember the brand now, but it doesn't exist anymore anyway. I knew less about computers then and I went for the cheapest I could find. Bad idea in my case. The computer fouled up within the first week I had it and even after it was fixed, it just sprouts random errors for no apparent reason. Laptops, I think Acer is pretty good. I don't know if you can get that brand where you are

Reply to A free downloadable game I can really get behind: SPMBT in Strategy JoeUser Forums

>> do you think you could do better in Iraq/Afghanistan today? apparently not. After getting my ass handed to me in the Kabul 2001 assault scenario, I remembered that I often suck at modern battles. After playing SPWAW The Maus that Roared and doing quite well playing from both sides (and thoroughly enjoying it), I went on to play some SPMBT. It could be that I'm rusty but I was awful. Tactics that apply well in WWII scenarios do no

Reply to A free downloadable game I can really get behind: SPMBT in Strategy JoeUser Forums

No clear favorites. I like anything with a lot of armor. I like the Band of Brothers scenarios, they have an rpg feel to them. Scenario 277 - The Berserker was also quite memorable, it's suppose to be medieval. You play as Vikings going on an assault on a British Dungeon to rescue the hostages. The Vikings are armed with bows, IIRC, the British have cannons or something.

Reply to The Trouble with Alarm Clocks in Misc JoeUser Forums

That was hilarious! I can usually wake up without the alarm clock, but it's effective on days I feel lazy. It's a little beep-beep alarm. It starts with a soft beep-beep, than beep-beep-beep, than it goes into a stream of beeps sounding very urgent.

Reply to Wanna combat childhood obesity? Here's a novel idea: WORK in Health & Medicine JoeUser Forums

You might want to try to get this published in a magazine or health website, because I think you got good points there. Far too many people use a lot of excuses (e.g ever popular "obese gene" and food labelling) to dodge responsibility for their own or their children's weight problem and using things like pills as a short cut way of solving the problem (never a lasting solution that one!) Insightful from me too. <img src="../images/smiles/

Reply to Battleon Pictures in Websites JoeUser Forums

Ha! I've played this before. Idle fun. Quite funny sometimes, especially the monster names. It was mostly free when I played it (you would have to pay to play some extra content.)

Reply to Fried worms from Thailand in Misc JoeUser Forums

Jellyfish - I've had that. Sqinchy. Did you go to a chinese wedding? Because I know traditionally they might serve that as part of the cold dish, cut into strips form. If they spice it properly, you might think it's some kind of strange vegetable. Which was how I got to try it. I thought it was a vegetable. Sometimes, it's better not to ask. *g*

Everyone needs a break now and then, you certainly sound like you are stressed out and near burnout. >> It is a pity my words didn't leave teeth marks just to remind him hehe. Take a break and take care.
