LOL! You are right about that. Plus there is not mcuh else to do :)

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

So what does your set-up look like where you FReep? I'm in a very roomy living room with a 32" TV about 4 ft. away. I think my eyes are going buggy. I have a 19" monitor for my computer. Oh, and I almost forgot, a perfect view of Scary Tree out my window. Thankfully, the window is about 12 ft. away. But it's a big window.

My computer is in my room which also has its own TV and DVD player. I have a 17 inch flat screen monitor here to save space and a 19 inch TV and a full-size bed.

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

Cool. My computer has a DVD player too. I don't use it as much cause the TV has a DVD player too. Might as well watch a movie on the BIGGER screen, than on a littler screen.

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

Got any pets? I think Phil's got the Aminal Farm.

[Paul_Denton]

You ever play Homeworld? It is one of my favorite games. I use these as ZOT graphics as well. The bottom 2 are from omeworld 2

[Paul_Denton]

I have two cats. The reason why I have a full sized bed lol.

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

Wow. Nice graphics. No I can't say I am familiar with the game. I tend to gravitate towards first-person shooter games. I'm not too good with strategy games.

[Paul_Denton]

LOL I agree about the screen size when it comes to movies. I have been using the DVD player more than the TV except in cases when any of the shows I like come on (Star Trek, Battlestar, Birds of Prey etc)

[Paul_Denton]

the Homeworld Games are the only strategy games I CAN play lol. I tried Warcraft III once but it was not for me. I gravitate toward modern weapons and sci-fi though. I too play mostly first person shooters.

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

I would like a cat, but the hub is allergic to cat hair. Once in a while, the landlord's cat (Jerry) knocks at the door (I kid you not) and we let him in and he hangs out with us for a while--until hubby starts sneezing. Then Jerry goes OUT. Wish I could adopt Barking Dog, but no dogs are allowed.

[Paul_Denton]

Darn I am sorry to hear that. Pets are great to have.

[pcottraux]

I live in my parents' downstairs. The basement is really more of an apartment. Central command would be my living room (there's also a hallway, bathroom, and bedroom).



Now here is my downstairs from the opposing view. I am at the computer you see in the corner there.

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

Maybe we can get one of those hairless cats.

They're kinda ugly...but oh well.

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

Cool, Phil. Where's your puter?

[pcottraux]

In the corner. You can see it in the background in the second picture.

[Paul_Denton]

I designed this weapon for my novel. But if I had 3D modeling skill I would GLADLY put this into Deus Ex or DOOM 3. A freind put it into Operation Flashpoint though.

It fires 9.5mm x 45mm rounds with a soft tip and a sub-caliber depleted uranium penetrator, making it equally effective against both targets wearing body armor and targets without body armor. To make up for the short length, the weapon uses an advanced propellant instead of nitrocellulos (smokeless powder). The optional grenade launcher is a 30mm weapon fed from a cylindrical magazine.

Its firing rate is 1250 rounds a minute and has settings for semi-auto, 5 round burst and fully automatic and is fed from a 40 round magazine (a 196 round large box magazine can be used for high capacity).

[Paul_Denton]

Cute!!! :)

[Paul_Denton]

actually i have held a hairless kitten. They are not as ugly as they would first appear to be :)

[Maximus_Ridiculousness]

I see it, I see it!!!!
