Being a Mac person, I can't comment on Homeland. But is it bad that I really liked Galactic Core? Granted, it wasn't a masterpiece of design, but I thought the gameplay was really fun! It required a good deal of tactical thought and some luck, but it's by no means impossible. I must have played through the demo a good five times. Granted, after a while, it probably gets a bit monotonous, but it's a fun challenge. And aliens are always cool. Comparing their technologies was interesting. To make a long story short, Richard White doesn't always deserve the shaft. Galactic Core is like chess in space, only cooler. Ocean Bound, on the other hand, is a horse's head in your bed.

I am offended, and this poll is incomplete. Poo-poo. -------------------- Maybe they're shocked. They might just be bug-eyed, not burglars.

I was going to take Crypto's advice, but then I remembered she owes me presents. So we settled for making cheese fondue and watching 'Robin Hood; Men in Tights'. Thanks for your help! She's fine now. Happy V-Day, everyone! [ Friday, February 16, 2007 13:57: Message edited by: Two Open-Mouthed Burglars ] -------------------- Maybe they're shocked. They might just be bug-eyed, not burglars.

This is Robinator, or Robin Thomas. I chose a different screen name for a change o' pace. Hanyway. Today is, or was, as you all probably know, February 13th, an unlucky number which would live up to its connotations. After coming back from celebrating the Ohio snow day (lots of sleet and ice) by sledding, my mom informed me that my girlfriend's mother had called: Becky, the gf, had woken up early in the morning feeling crummy and started getting dizzy. They took her to the hospital to see what was wrong, she went through a CT-Scan and it turned out she needed an appendectomy. I must have gotten home about halfway through the operation. It was kind of a weird idea on Becky's part, spending a snow day having her appendix removed. It's as bizarre a Valentine's Day present as it is a commemoration of her parents' 19th anniversarry, which was yesterday. Needless to say, I was a bit freaked out. Sure, I've had appendectomies and tonsils removed loads of times, probably. But when one tells their girlfriend that they "love every part of her," and "wouldn't trade any trait of hers for anyone else's," and then she gets a perfectly good ol' vestigal organ removed, it's hard to decide wheter one should be worried about her health or outraged that she didn't take one's words seriously. I mean, really, relationships are built on honesty. Becky's fine. But she is on heavy drugs and is currently having an IV. Her voice is scratchy from all the oxygen, and she's eating the adult equivalent of baby food. I personally think she's a little ungrateful, considering she probably went through all this just to avoid the cheese fondue I'm making for Valentines' Day tomorrow. But of course, looking uncaring isn't something she'd want. So I'm trying to figure out a way to celebrate Valentines' Day anyway in a cheery fashion, even though she'll probably be bed-ridden at home the whole time (her family's camping out in the hospital). I was going to write a poem about hoping she gets better and loving her, and how the gaping hole in her abdomen put a gaping hole in my heart, but not much rhymes with "appendix." So. Does anyone have any ideas regarding how to spend V-Day with someone who just went through a surgical operation like this and who will probably still be a bit yucksome? EDIT: Sorry about any typos. I'm listening to Electric Light Orchestra. [ Tuesday, February 13, 2007 20:05: Message edited by: Two Open-Mouthed Burglars ] -------------------- Maybe they're shocked.
