I do the same thing
But neither of your reason, i just do it because i'm used to do it.
If that's not a eligble(sp?) reason, i dont know why then.
I always run on my tip-toes...I dont know for sure, bet maybe because I walk barefooot most of the time, and it saves my heel from slowing me down.
...and diplomacy continues to fail. Their ears fall deaf, and their eyes fall blind, yet they are still not mute. They will not know their errors. Only what they believe themselves. But we... we shall not be silenced.
Hehe, yeah, I run 4 miles every other day, do 150 push ups, sit ups, 30 chin ups. Then I do hand-to-hand stuff, and sometimes go down to the shooting range. Its a blast.
King would run circles around unholy in a track meet.
If king is doing cross-country then hes running further than 4 miles. I assume hes doing it every week day, and on top of that he has to make a really good time for the meets.
A track meet involves more than running the mile too, those things take practice.
And then he plays soccer!? Hows he gonna lose?
I would go so far as to bet money on this, but well never find out will we!
If it was a fight, then id say unholys got him beat. But we really really shouldnt go there.

So... We've got Leroy for 100 on Unholy and I'm betting 50 on King... Yea.. that comes out to.... 150 (insert currency here)!!! That's a lot of money to people that don't live in (insert country here)!!! Anyway, anyone else wanna place any more bets??

That reminds me... I used to have two canines in very awkward places, but the benefit of that was that I could actually suck my lip in and show only those two teeth, so it looked like I was a vampire. I had them taken out though, 'cause I have to get braces soon...
My friends calling it cannibalism to bite other people.
I'm using my teeth as a weapon, but my friends call it cannibalism.
Cannibalism = When you eat dead people's corpses, not when you bite to attack/defend
I don't believe in god or gods, however i still think Egyptian gods are cool(Especially Anubis and Bast).
I hate people who write books like "100 ways to be healthy", and people who follows these books. I mean, you are free to choose how you want to live.
I hate the freedom of speech. We have it in Denmark, but we arent allowed to swear in classes, at the police, at politics and just everywhere.
I hate the fact that i have to be 18 before i can buy, or make a Crossbow
Doin my own, thang, and if you got a problem with that
Then the nina go bang, bang, and I'll be everywhere on the map - but
I rep that West
I say to each his own. As long as you are tolerant of other peoples' religion (that does not mean you have to think they are right, just that you have to at the very least consider it and respect it) then you should get along. The main thing I hate about a lot of Christians is that they say they are Christian (not saying they aren't), and yet any time that anyone tries to talk about another religion, they ready the sword and shield. The whole reason that we have denominations today is because some jerk just couldn't handle a different perspective and so excommunicated anyone that thought differently than them. As I said earlier, though, as long as ones are tolerant, ones should get along just fine.
In direct response to WolfGang: I was borderline atheist myself not too long ago, but something happened that really, REALLY upset me and turned my whole world upside-down so I turned straight to God. It really helped me knowing that at least one being out there loved me no matter what (And the fact that that being was omniscient, well FORGET about it!!); even today (about 1 month later than that event... sadly...) having that knowledge really helps me. I know that there are some people that experience terrible pain and question why in the world a loving God would do such a thing... I don't really believe in all that test crap; my theory is that an equally good event happened to someone or will happen to someone because that terrible event happened to you. I really love to make people happy so when I think that I've sacrificed some of me for other people, it comforts me. I've actually, recently, had some events happen wherein I would say to God "You know, things would be a lot easier if this would happen" and all the sudden that event would happen (too many times for coincidence) and I would realize that I actually did NOT want that event to happen after all... It just made things worse... And on the biggest time that that happened, it reversed itself and the situation changed back to normal right after I realized that I didn't like it. That, for me, was conformation of a little divine intervention. I say, if you want to believe in God, believe in him. Things may happen that make you severely question things at an existential level, but I think that everything happens for a reason. I don't go to Church because I don't like people forcing their way in between me and God, even though they say they don't... But I maintain a terrifically strong connection with Him(/Her/It). My biggest reason for that being that I honestly could not live without it. I've tried, and it just left me so alone. I need God. That's my realization, take it or leave it, but like I said earlier, things happen for a reason. Never doubt that God loves you no matter who or what you are or what you believe in. There are people that will try to tell you otherwise; those people are the same ones that don't cry when they see a mother lose her child. Never believe what they try to tell you, and God loves you.
The above only qualifies if you believe in Christianity or any other monotheistic religion (and just want to change the name). If you are not one of the previous, then please accept this as the belief and application aspect of others and move along.

Wolf that was very deep and well educated, however when i turned to god things just went from bad to worse and i dont see any prof in a god or gods i belive in evolution and the big bang theory. The one thing that really makes me mad is when people try and push there relgion on me.
Well any way wolf i just want to say thanks for well, i just think you need to be thanked right now.
C-to-the-x (don't worry, I'll NEVER say that again...) has just made my day. Thank you codex for not locking this topic because of an infraction. It's quite possibly my favourite topic.
As for something interesting about myself: I'm currently using Linux (openSUSE 11 to be precise) because of my BSoD problems... I was surprised at how compatible it is with my hardware, when I first got this PC, windows took roughly 20 minutes to configure everything (that's minus the install) then I had to mess around in the network settings to get the internet working. When I installed this, it took 15 minutes and everything works, even the little volume control buttons on my mouse. I'd heartily recommend openSUSE 11 to anyone who only uses their computer for word processing, graphics and browsing the internet. The only problem is, I'm getting Guild Wars/NWN2/Morrowind withdrawl symptoms...
(Please Note: I'm not trying to start an OS war here, I'm just spouting an interesting fact about myself, and trying to move the conversation to something allowed on these boards)
