While discussing the new creationist museum opening up in Petersburg, Kentucky, the concept of "Stars look millions of miles away, how can the universe be only six to ten thousand years old?" came up. Pretty interesting question, all things considered, and creationists have an answer though. It even uses science and math! Granted it's a bad answer, ( Read more... )

Here are a few screenshots of the healing meters for various attempts over the last week. These were taken either when we won, we wiped, or I died. I have corresponding overheal and total heal shots, but I just included effective healing as that's what matters.

"[In America] We view sex as something dirty and disgusting you save for someone you love."

Decided to play around with mage because I wanted a space goat and also a better farming character. I have Cao so I'll probably get him to 70 first in all honesty, but hey, who can say no to this:

If you have a moment, leave a comment with some kind of scene or short story idea. I want to write more crap and I have utterly failed at coming up with ideas for smaller projects, which I think would be fun. If nothing else there'd be terribly bad writing to mock. Hooray!

"Where there is lexical or syntactic ambiguity, you could argue that you are free to choose a preferred meaning - granted - but you cannot arbitrarily transform someone's words into what you want!
