"Good people of the United States of America.
Today I bring you a proposal to allow people with religious or philosophical beliefs against heterosexual people to deny service to heterosexual people."

I would like to see how well that would blow over.
Well, I'd obviously be against it. However I'd also see the irony involved, unlike the folks who are trying to get that other law in Washington into play.

: "Well, maybe 'strange' is too strong a word, but...When you said that you quit, I half expected you to march into Prixima's office right then and declare your resignation. I wouldn't have blamed you, to be honest.

Here's where it gets weird: I realized that if you quit, I probably would have as well. Even if it meant desertion! That sort of thought had never crossed my mind before, but I realized that being a mercenary with you and some friends would make me happier than just being another soldier...especially if I had to keep working for Prixima."


He paused.

: "I'm not sure if I made any sense or not..."

: "Well, I'm not one to believe in silly fortunes, but the teller herself seemed surprised. What if it is true? What if we really are going to die young and suddenly? That would be awful. Sure, we're mercenaries, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy long, healthy lives after we retire."

: "Honestly Charlotte, I don't really believe in fortune tellers either. I mean, did you hear the fortune Ami got? A throne made of darkness and jewels? Crazy talk.
"But listen! I have no intention of dying young, and I don't want you to die either. Working together, we can prove the fortune wrong...or at least, that part of it."


He chuckled.

: "You want to hear something strange?"

The Stand was probably the single longest book I've ever read, and the one I have (un-cut) is somewhere around 1,200 pages. Hardcover too, which would probably make it an excellent improvised weapon :P

: "This is kind of a poor time, but I suppose so. Did you have something to say?"

: "I know, and I'm sorry, but we didn't have a chance before with everything that happened. I was just wondering what your take on it was. You seemed...well, you seemed kind of down."

I'm not getting it to work. Are you talking about the address bar? How exactly would it look?

Meanwhile, Gregor had caught up to Charlotte.

: "Hey, can we talk for a minute? About that fortune teller thing?"

2,500 pages? Sounds like an excellent doorstop :P

I'd like a multiplayer dueling game, with rapiers, pistols, sabres, and whatnot.
A game that focuses entirely on single combat and nothing else would be epic.
Toribash?

Will we be able to change the trajectory of the astroids?  I want to put one in a decaying orbit around Kerbin.  Or just put it on a direct trajectory towards the space center.
I doubt it. To much potential for catastrophic lag and physics glitches sending rocks careening into each other or your ships.

Still bearded, still utterly crazy and utterly doomed.

* Sirus watches with bemusement and wonders how a conversation about bread could go so badly off-track


In case you forgot.
Yeah, but every once in a while...

Gandalf said it best: You can learn all about their ways in a month, and yet after a hundred years they can still surprise you.
