Default Re: good job, shrapnel !

Hey now. I bath every first saturday of the month. Thats good enough for now. :-)

As for the tech tree wraith, I like to dable with it alot more lately as well. Ship design too. Im trying to create a new component for Plasma Spheres like the Romulans use. My main problem, is finding a pic to display the weapon properly.

Anyone got any ideas?

Have you looked into the Imagemod?

It's up to almost 1000 components, and 250 weapon animations.

You're probably right of course. I've been repeatedly accused of being too subtle. Perhaps I scaled back too much from my usual demeanor on flamewar forums.... gotta get rid of that etched retinal image of a clubbed baby seal.

Actually, I use Louis Black as a partial prototype for my altered ego.

Agreed that your premis would work if said chores were each minor, minimalist household chores of the 'taking the bin out' variety - you would still get quite a bit of time bashing the Phong (is that like spanking the monkey??)

Unfortunately, Godzilla has decreed that each of my chores is more of the 'strip the wallpaper from the living room, polyfilla and repaint' variety.

Quite sad really. She goes off to take the lead role in "Jurassic Park IV" whilst I get to make major structural alterations to the cave

This means that when she returns from savaging sheep on Saturday morning, I will be panicking and at the tail end of suffering from sleep deprivation, mild starvation and thirst whilst also smelling like a pot of moldy parmesan cheese.

I suspect that my excuse that I was kidnapped by aliens is not going to hold much water.

Someone play the funeral march

LMAO... Godzilla no less. I love it when the soda comes out of my nose unexpectedly.

JP: Hey, some of those compsognathus' were cute, in a reptilian manner.

Listen pal, it is not funny. I will be sitting playing the computer on Saturday morning and the ground will start to shake every few seconds, there will be this deep thumping sound and I will notice that the surface of my cup of coffee will reverberate like a drum.

This will get more frequent and then, I KNOW that something will be standing outside the front of the house, something terrible, something so horrifying that the sheer terror it generates will freeze me to the spot - I will be too scared to open the curtains in case that awful beady staring eye is glowering through the window

Can you understand the abject terror this can generate

...especially when you realise that all the bravado you had yesterday about how you would not be worried about the flak for not doing the chores is going to evaporate with the mist....

it is not funny, it is really not

Nippy, I think I know this girl

'spanking the monkey'?? steady on mate, I dont think our north american colleagues and other colonials are quite ready for that kind of metaphor - nor are the Moderators frankly
