I try to be as well rounded as possible. I can't go around bashing things without ever having tried them, right? Thus, I have seen Sailor Moon, been to France, and even read the Bible. -------------------- You lose. Posts: 2156 | Registered: Thursday, August 24 2006 07:00 |

This will forever be known as the day that Emperor Tullegolar lost his dignity. It had to happen sometime. :P I decided to Wiki Sailor Moon and the Doom Tree. The Doom Tree fits him and his philosophy pretty well, except for the love part. -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here. Needless to say, I failed.

I don't get it. Is there something wrong with wanting to see everything from my own perspective instead of someone else's? Rather than dismiss something as foolish based on what other people say, or even what the mighty wikipedia says, I like to see everything for myself first. I think your responses reveal how weak you are. You're all begrudging that I've seen something you haven't, and thus you react critically as a means of making up for it. Sour grapes, anyone? I don't think it weakens my image at all. After all, I only saw a few episodes of Sailor Moon, spent much more time in Germany than in France, and read the King James version of the Bible... which I stole from a hotel. Plus, I still have a much cooler hat than any of you ever will.  -------------------- You lose. Posts: 2156 | Registered: Thursday, August 24 2006 07:00 |

A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything. —Alorael, who respects Egol for trying before bashing. That said, an important part of delegation, an essential skill for all would-be despots, is learning whom to trust. Find the right people for opinions on various topics and you'll waste much less time on, say, Sailor Moon. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

I wanted to wear a Commie hat that looked just like that for my Senior ID picture. They didn't let me. :( -------------------- You acquire an item: Radio Free Foil Posts: 1169 | Registered: Monday, September 23 2002 07:00 |

Well, the begrudging over Sailor Moon thing was a joke... but I do sense you now begrudge the hat. -------------------- You lose. Posts: 2156 | Registered: Thursday, August 24 2006 07:00 |

In that picture the ear flaps are tied up on the top. When they're down, they cover your ears and even the back of your neck. That, plus the fact that I'm a fan of turtlenecks, keeps me quite warm even in the coldest winters. In Soviet Russia, hat wears you. -------------------- You lose.

While it's an interesting idea, Ephesos, I don't think it would work since I'm a bit taller than 6 nanometers. By the way, I don't just have the black feather, I have different colors I can switch it with depending on what I'm wearing. Randomizer, please be less obvious about your jealousy. It's embarrassing. -------------------- You lose. Posts: 2156 | Registered: Thursday, August 24 2006 07:00 |

Since this photo is from late November, I think it qualifies:  This photo was taken post-Philly Marathon, my first ever (3:52:45). On the left are friends Amy and Erin; to the right, my friend Adrian and my wife Diane. The bad clothes I'm wearing were from Goodwill, since we were planning on discarding them right before the race started, but since they hadn't disappeared when we got back, we gratefully reclaimed them - it was pretty cold! Even though we're smiling there, we all felt like death. :) EDIT: Oh, and the new Battlestar Galactica kicks Firefly's rear end. :P [ Tuesday, December 05, 2006 17:47: Message edited by: Drew ] Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

The medal is under the coat. Way to probably never have run a marathon. [ Wednesday, December 06, 2006 04:15: Message edited by: Drew ] Posts: 2242 | Registered: Saturday, April 10 2004 07:00 |

 The only slightly winter-type thing around here (partially because it's summer here) is the bigass icebergs a wee bit off the coast. Yep, super exciting. Posts: 776 | Registered: Friday, July 4 2003 07:00 |

I'll have you know I'm quite proud of having never run a marathon. It's bad for your knees, exhausting, and very, very unprofitable. Plus, if everyone gets a medal, there isn't even any prestige to be had. Really, what is there to gain from such a thing at all? -------------------- You lose.
