Now I feel bad for spoiling it. Oh well, I only got past the B section after two hours of reading... I'll finish though...ad Kalendas Graecas.

Oh, and I brought a friend with me... (He's actually here on surveillance.)

My dear boy, I do believe that "celerius quam" means "faster than"; -ius is the neuter comparative ending. I am also rather suspicious of your 'co ur', as neither any source I find online, nor my Wheelock next to me, have either as an actual word; I will check my Latin dictionary when I get back to the Rome.

Ah, yes, of course, to the foot of the letter...I forgot to account for the genitive.

Smack me, please, for my foolishness.

so....hot....need....vodka....now!

*pours vodka on Last Child's head*

A whole bottle too. You're lucky it's only cyber vodka.

Last Child of Ungoliant · 08-26-2006, 06:50 PM

i dunno, i can get through at least 2 bottles a week in real life usually, plus 6-8 cans of guinness and 4 bottles of slate...i tend to drink a little,

klatukatt · 08-26-2006, 08:06 PM

damn. I only have a quarter flask of whiskey left.
Better empty it and fill it up with RUM!

My new favorite song:
Bat Country - Avenged Sevenfold
He who makes a beast of himself, gets rid of the pain of being a man...

Caught here in a fiery blaze, I won't lose my will to stay.
I tried to drive all through the night,
the heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights.
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me.

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don't want the attention.

As I to adjust to my new sights the rarely tired lights will take me to new heights.
My hand is on the trigger I'm ready to ignite.
Tomorrow might not make it but everything's all right.
Mental fiction follow me; show me what it's like to be set free.

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).
No one can save me and you know I don´t want the attention.

So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem.

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay.
These eyes won't see the same, after I Flip today.

Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die,
we look up towards the sky for answers to our lives.
We may get some solutions but most just pass us by,
don't want your absolution cause I can't make it right.
I'll make a beast out of myself, gets rid of all the pain of being a man.

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone).
Too many doses and I'm starting to get an attraction.
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone).

So sorry you're not here I've been sane too long my vision's so unclear.
Now take a trip with me but don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem.
I've known it from the start all these good ideas will tear your brain apart.
Scared but you can follow me I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die.

trolls' bane · 08-26-2006, 08:38 PM

Has anyone been through here asking for me? Hmm... Well, let me know. Oh, and by the way, I'm not here if they ask. *pulls big green book and slips behind bookcase into the now rebuilt laboratory, with the complete schematics of the first few hundred floors of the cafe*

The last sane person · 08-26-2006, 08:43 PM

More'n welcome Gwai.

trolls' bane · 08-26-2006, 09:42 PM

Perhaps it's best if I don't voice this but SOME WORTHLESS IDIOT DESTROYED MY COUSIN'S HOUSE. I now have to stay on AW 24/7 to watch it. I'm going to catch them in the act, and I'm gonna kill them. Anyway, I got to make a quick visit to the Smith & Wesson website, and then see if they sell scopes on e-bay.

The last sane person · 08-26-2006, 10:16 PM

Go to a Big 5 in your area, A good scope is cheap, but I wanna see if you can even heft a rifle, never mind the recoil.

durinsbane2244 · 08-26-2006, 10:58 PM

i find that after a couple weeks off, TNG is quite refreshing.

Lotesse · 08-27-2006, 01:12 AM

Listen to Shah, dearheart; she knows her guns. How've you been, Trolls Bane? It's been a while. So, someone's screwing with your family? Jesus, I thought you got out of the Valley! I guess the desert's just as bad, gang-bangin' general mayhem foolishness-wise, huh. My best friend lives out in Joshua Tree; she tells me how it is. A lot of bored and restless wannabe child-thugs and their ridiculous drugs. Stupid. I hate stupid people. Meh.

*Pours another glass of Central Coast Syrah, Perbacco Cellars, nice rich plummy Syrah. Types slowly.*

Lotesse! *hugs* Great to see you.

No, not exactly... I was referring to a virtual reality online program.

How've you been?

The last sane person · 08-27-2006, 01:33 AM

OHH!!! AW! Hey, I havent had that thing working on my comp in ages. But then again, this old bucket of chips can barely get on the internet.

Hah, well, hey, is our house still up and running? The Castle of Irrelevance still around?

It's still there. I also built a Mars-itat under it. You'd never beleive how much the town has grown. It's gargantuan! Aliquantus!
