Nerves most likely brother, I was more nervous my first few times fooling about than I was in any of the fights I was ever in. Also excessive drink or drug can dull things. Don't be shy with her if she does something you dig tell her, if not have her experiment a bit, just be ready to return the favor.

Most assuredly, they are good stuff. If you like Dredd I would recommend the Conan the Barbarian comics as well. The Conan comics also have several compilations out you can buy, look for the ones done by Dark Horse comics as they stick closer to the vibe of the original short stories.
-
Did you literally die or do you mean a sort of spiritual death and resurection? Many passages in the writings of Paul and the gospel of Mark be seen as Gnostic and there are those that aruge that all of John is. I recommend reading the works in the Nag Hammadi collection they present a much more spiritual christianty than…

I think it more likely that he simply did not get that far, while I think it is possible he advocated violence I think more likely that if anything he advocated that his followers be ready for it. I will post links later to several biblical translations that are available for purchase that are much more literal in how they…

Sadly someone in Washington would jump all over this. I figure if they can't pass the gun legislation they want they will eventually resort to taxing the fuck out of, to the point that it will limit the poor from owning them, and when they do it they will say it is all for the sake of reducing national debt.

I had some old Dredd comics when i was kid, I loved them. This was a good flick and it stayed true to the pulp sci fi feel of the comics, I hear there is talk of a sequel. Also if your interested there are some paper back compilations of the comics floating around that you could proably order.

As to your questions proudclod9, the standard interpretation amongst the faithful is that "I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." is not literal but a metaphor for spiritual warfare and the potential ideological divisions that his teachings could cause in a community. As to the second quote there is quite a bit of…

my wife and I just bought it today. I have been debating on it for awhile but said fuck it and went ahead, it looks pretty fucking cool havent played it yet though. Honestly I enjoy more light hearted games from time to time, be damned what anyone else thinks, games are about fun.
-
Now lets play a little game in identifying these sources. It's actually fairly easy to do, lets just start with Genesis 1 and 2. These two chapters describe essentially different creation accounts in which two of the sources are easily identifiable. These two chapters of Genesis can be rather revealing. Instead of doing a…

All right gents now that I am back up and running after a vicious stomach bug time for some educational posting, fuck dehydration. So lets start with some of the basics, what I am about to be say is the general scholarly consensus in the field with a few of my own ideas and interpretations. Authorship; The Torah or…
-
Shit sorry bornkiller I was all fucked up from dehydration when I was typing that, fucking stomach bug caused me to loose enough fluids to pass out.

SWIM has found that broad fucking daylight on weekdays can be productive if you are familiar with police patterns

Okay. TDR as to why cedar was used by the Romans in the near east it was most likely because it was imported from Lebanon by the ass load. However they probably used whatever was on hand and sturdy enough. They were never picky. You are also correct as to the cross inscription. Remade I have some theories on ole Moses I…
-
It is my belief that the UFO that set the bush afire must have been purple, more of a gut feeling than anything. As to the cross the bible doesn't mention the timber used, there is a legend that it was made Of dogwood but there is no way to know. I do know that the Romans used cedar for all kinds of shit at that time.
-
I had a serious fucking aversion to needles before my last stay in the hospital where I was desensitized through the sheer fucking number of times I was stuck. Before that little episode I was never shy about asking the doctors or nurses point blank who was the best with needle work, the way I look at it is I am the one…
-
Jesus man, how hard is it to treat and how long till they can get you started?
-
I feel ya on this one bro, I have been dealing with ADD all my life. It's like the inside of my head is the worlds wildest circus and I'm trying to play ring master. I lose shit on an hourly basis, most often my focus is shit, and tear things up in a rage on a regular basis. I have experimented with various treatments for…
-
School has set me back a bit, however I will most definitely be ready to play by tommorow, all I need is for GoingNowhere and TDR to post their characters if they are still in.
-
Well I am about 60-70% finished working on a the setting as I decided to throw out all the stuff I had written up before, this time I am going with a dark ages, weird fantasy with odd bits of sci-fi and horror blended in a pulp fantasy kinda thing. Think bits of Conan, Elric, and Lovecraft stuff feel wise, I should be…
-
Yeah, the rulebook kind of assumes that you have done this sort of thing before, which makes it a bit harder for those who have not. No sweat though, I am happy to field any questions about how things work.
-
Your doing fine Dfg, don't worry about the races I listed in that older post we are just going to ignore it except for the rolls I listed, just keep it to either human, elf, dwarf, or halfling like in the rule book, so basically whatever kind of background you come up with is fine. Cool character concept by the way. Just…
-
Let this abomination unto the lord, this ritual of thread necromancy commence! So this whole idea just sort of fizzled out last time. Anyone interested in trying to get this game off the ground again? Other than using the same set of rules I linked to last time I figure we could just start from scratch, and instead of me…
-
I prep to a degree but not like these whackjobs. My wife and I both keep a well stocked bug out bag and about a weeks worth of extra food and three 5 gallon containers of spring water in the house in case of a stuck in place type situation. However I don't gear for the bunker type mentality, I am more looking to be…
-
Sounds on the whole pretty well like things here, each group having their own niches and what not. Gun crime tends to be primarily in the black community in Arkansas which is kind of odd considering I would say more white people have guns here with the hunting and gun cultures being as large as they are. There is a fairly…

Some fifteen year old kid I knew got put up for shooting some dope dealer a few years back, other than that I got nothing.
-
Yeah I honestly figure the bullshit over there will go on until life on this rock ceases. I figure that it is just a matter of time before Israel is the flash point for a major region wide, if not world wide conflict. As to what you were saying TDR I agree the political climate in the U.S. is a powder keg and the next 4…
-
That's a stone cold shame. Situational awareness is a must yo. Just out of curiosity is crime in the U.K. spread pretty evenly amongst ethnic groups or is it like the states where some groups have higher rates and tend toward particular offenses more than others?
-
Most of the active duty guys I have known over the years pay little attention to veterans day, the younger ones any way. Most of the men in my family have served at some point so around here it is just one of my family's many excuses to cook ridiculous amounts of food and get drunk.
-
That right there is one of if not the most common argument that I hear. The truth is though that most of the people I have met that are against it could not be convinced otherwise to save their fucking lives, no matter how well structured, supported, and reasoned your arguments may be even though theirs are usually…
-
Issue 5 here in Arkansas failed courtesy of conservative christains. The debates were hilarious the family council basically fell back on marijuana is bad mkay?
-
In my neck of the woods just about everyone is anti Iran, the population here is pretty conservative and hawkish. I personally don't give a fuck, to me it is all just politics we have supported, hell even built plenty of brutal regimes it is all about whether or their agenda is in line with ours. Now I do think there are…

Hello

Welcome aboard.

My wife's surgery for the miscarriage was this morning at 10am, of course they didn't get her back till 2pm. Also still haven't heard from the mechanic on our van which happened to shit out the day we found out. Happy 23rd birthday to me.:facepalm:
-
Tell me that is not real.
-
Yeah, sucks big time. The doctor made a face when he started the ultra sound and I knew some shit was up. He said this actually happens 1 in 5 times. Sorry to hear you have gone through the same, i can't imagine three times. I am sure you would make a fine father, like you said though just how the dice roll some times.…
-
Just left the doctors, there was no heart beat.
-
Maybe she is senile? I mean seriously even if the priest did authorize her to do it how much intelligence does it take to look at something like that and say to yourself "Nope, not touching it."
-
Sounds like they would fit in just fine where I live. I can't stand rednecks.
-
Thought an example character sheet might help a bit.. Name: Age: Sex: Race: Class: Hit Points: (How much damage you can take, this is determined by your class, Fighting Men start with 7, Clerics with 6, and Magic-Users with 6) Strength: Intelligence: Wisdom: Constitution: Dexterity: Charisma: Level/Current Xp: (All players…
-
Feel free to put in as much detail as you like Dfg, that was just a suggestion I made because I didn't want to overwhelm new players, but if you have a concept in your head by all means brother flesh it out. The classes in the book provide your basic abilities, the background you deveolp for your character provides…
-
Right on. Yeah I always thought it was retarded that somehow being a magic user physically prevented you from using certain weapons, same for clerics. Anybody else started on their characters? Like I said othern than that we are ready to go.
-
Right on. Fair waring, these older editions of D&D tend to be fairly lethal to low level characters so don't put too much work in on them besides their stats, just a brief outline about them, which of the peoples they belong too, what they look like, any significant facts about them and what they did before their current…
-
I decided to skip posting the summary and what not as I thought it might be more fun if everything was somewhat of a discovery process. I will be finished with everything on my end tonight, I have a sleep study tommorow so I plan on pulling an all nighter so it will be easier to sleep at the clinic. Anyone finished with…

At the time that clip was filmed long distance gun fights weren't unheard of in that part of the city, I have heard tales of people setting up somewhere and sniping their mark. I catch your meaning about proper gangs though, their seems to be a huge difference in the standard operating procedure of street gangs and more…
-
Seems to be a decent amount of similarities between gangs in the U.K. and here as far as the types that end up involved. To me it seems like the major difference is guns, anyone here can get a gun and the gang bangers here have everything from .38 revolvers to fully automatic AK-47's. At one point in the late 80's and…
-
That show sounds fucking epic. Now shows like that existed I would actually bother to turn the tv on from time to time.

The Peoples of the known world The Mycenii A once numerous people whose modern sphere of influence is limited to the southern lands, though their merchants can be found literally anywhere. They tend to be compact of build and shorter of stature than other peoples, ranging anywhere from 5’6-5’9 and weighing anywhere from…
-
Damn I want to go. There is this city in Arkansas, Hot Springs, and in the downtown area there are a series of connected tunnels and rooms that were at one point underground casinos. From the 1910's to 1930's they were pretty heavily patronized by the likes of Al Capone and Lucky Luciano, of course these days the entrances…
-
I always got frustrated with people talking about things, once an image is created it is damned hard to get rid of and those things have a way of biting you on the ass.
