Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Wednesday, September 20 2006 06:53 Profile #49 I believe she went to count footsteps in the Lone Ranger National Forest, somewhere in the American Southwest. I would guess she lacks the fortitude to pack a satellite phone and some sort of portable blackberry type device in order to communicate with us. Or, it just may be that life is so consuming for her at the moment that she is unwilling to spend precious free time monitoring our peccadilloes as well. Edit - I changed nothing. Although, it is strange how accurate my forecasting has become.

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Tuesday, September 19 2006 22:35 Profile #34 Actually, I could build a church, invite over a few fishing buddies, set up some rituals and create some dogma, and call it a religion. I would then file the correct forms with the state and federal government, and suddenly there is a new congregation of the United Church of Fishermen. It is that easy. -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing. Posts: 4114 \| Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00
2006 Candidates in General
Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Tuesday, September 19 2006 22:20 Profile #7 I agree it is difficult, at times, to get beyond the obtuse nature of my posts and discern the true meaning. Zeviz does it all the time, as does Slarty and occasionally Aran. Others either do and don't care to comment, or just don't care enough to ask. Zeviz got it on the nose though. It is an unfortunate byproduct of our society that we have an incredible amount of information, an extremely limited amount of free time, and an overwhelming sense of guilt at failure to faithfully exercise our rights as citizens. Quite a few people don't give a crap, and either vote the party line, their newspaper's editorial recommendations, or according to spouse/parents/church guidance. Some don't vote, actually the majority fail to cast every ballot they are eligible to cast. Your decision to make an informed vote means you do care, and given that remaining aware of all possible information on every possible electoral decision is improbable, you could be best served to research only a few of the issues/candidates independently. Then, compare your choices to those made by major voting blocs to see if you are actually voting along with others. At that point you can just vote their line, and feel comfortable that your particular governmental needs and priorities will be met. It's tough though. Here we have all the representative elections plus a bunch of ballot initiatives. Those are the worst, as they are usually sponsored by big business from out of state, and are written so as to appear that small taxpayers (like me) will benefit. In reality they just benefit business, reduce income to the state, and leave Oregon with fewer teachers, undereducated students (and graduates), and no law enforcement. So good luck, never get so dejected that you stop voting or caring, and discuss your findings with friends and co-workers. Engaging people in political discussions can be just as rewarding as riding a toboggan through a hilly cemetary. :) -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing.

Amazing Member # 5755	written Monday, September 18 2006 21:02 Profile #16 quote: Originally written by Ash Lael: Whatever "slippery slope" ends with allowing him to do so, I'm all for it. It's not like anyone goes around kidnapping homosexuals and forcing them to become straight. FYI - I've yet to hear of any nefarious movement to kidnap heterosexuals and force them to become gay. Just in case you were worrying about it; because given your attitude, and deep seated need to encourage heterosexuality, I felt you would be able to sleep better at night knowing that it is only homosexuals that are needlessly persecuted by legions of well meaning scripture cultists. I eagerly await hearing from you that your encouragement to those wishing to explore the joys of heterosexuality extends across the brotherhood of man and embraces all those among the members of this forum who are deeply comfortable in their sexuality and feel no need to explore relations with a different sex, whichever might be their current fruit of choice. :) -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing.

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Monday, September 18 2006 20:32 Profile #11 As originally posed by #5814: quote: What determines a person's sexual preferences? God? Hormones? (and please state whose) Genes? Psychological influences? Different combinations? My fiancee and I prefer sex with each other, something affected by hormones, our refined taste, and the proximity of suitable locations. That really is all that should matter to anyone, about anyone. Pedophilia is for kids. Necrophilia is for the dead. Zoophilia is for the dogs. -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing.

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Monday, September 18 2006 20:24 Profile #44 This is quickly becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. We claim to not want to appear on the "Top 10," which influences less posting. People like me end up posting at lower rates and yet still appear on the blasted list, making me want to just scrap this post before it ever hits the message boards. Pick one, or the other. We can have a vibrant message board filled with interesting threads, where post counts aren't counted and people don't care. Or we could have a tired old space, which is occasionally visited to check out what old man Vogel has turned out lately, and how well his sycophantal followers are dealing with the latest in a history of disappointments. Now I wish I didn't care, so that I could save you the time of reading this post by deleting it. But that is the old me. The new me wants you to have to read at least 300 of my posts every month. Wouldn't that be fun... -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing. Posts: 4114 \| Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00

Ah, the joys of being a conspiracy theorist. Damn. I liked where you were going with this, until you got there. Alorael would make the perfect crystal soul from ZKR. Confused, tortured, insane, twisted, cruel and always eager to spout gibberish at anyone foolish enough to enter his domain. Oh, I've just been informed that the gibberish is in fact some language called Spanish.

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Saturday, September 16 2006 08:47 Profile #4 You want good unbiased information on political candidates? <Unstructured evil laugh> Your best bet is to follow these steps. 1. Find out who is running for each office. 2. Find out in which town/city they reside. 3. Read editorials from each towns newspaper. 4. Visit a selection of bars or coffee shops and ask questions/listen. 5. Notice that it is February and you totally missed the election. Hey, no one said having an informed electorate was going to be easy. :P -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing.

Unhandled Exception in ER in Blades of Avernum Editor
Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Thursday, September 14 2006 18:17 Profile #1 I had similar problems with UE until I did something odd. Remove any stray files from the BoA directory or the data directory that could possibly be duplicates of those included with the scenario. I was getting an error every time I opened DwtD, but it disappeared when I cleaned up the directory. Actually, since I cleaned them up, I've had NO UE errors. Edit - What I'm getting at is that Windows has trouble when it is presented with two identically named files from which to choose. Thus the UE. Eliminate its confusion. Hope that helps...

Musing on Avernum in General
Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Tuesday, September 12 2006 16:17 Profile #6 For me the single biggest advantage that Geneforge has is the Leadership skill. I know that E had reputation, but I was never so sure on how that affected dialogue, other than plot advancers. It would be nice to have something of that nature added into BoA, although at this point I have serious doubts about that ever happening. Zorro, you may want to try Druids of Krell, by Ephesos, for a slightly different BoA experience. -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon: Well, I'm at least pretty sure that Salmon is losing.

Jumpin Salmon ? Man, ? Amazing Member # 5755	written Sunday, September 10 2006 14:31 Profile #92 Recently I've been reading several books at once. It makes for interesting storylines. Anyhow, I've been on a $1 at Powells kick, so a lot of Freddy Pohl. Also some LeGuin, but not because she is a PDXer. I did her Earthsea, which left me underwhelmed. Disappointing, considering that I really liked it when I was 13. Next is Left Hand, then Lathe, but currently Stephen Fry's Making History. -------------------- Synergy, et al - "I don't get it."
