It occurred to me when it was mentioned I could hot spot while waiting at the hospital or rather that I could not lol

All I have to do it take my laptop as well as my phone. I can attach the little thingy into the side and voila I have internet.

I had not thought to take my laptop with me before

I hadn't thought of that either, Yeishia; I have some doctors that tend to be 2- 3 hours behind - I'll have to bring mine too and see if I can get on.

(If we're there at the same time, I'll come down to your floor and we can play simulataneous RP. Oh,wait. If we're there together, let's skip the RP and have some RW play!)

*Giggles* That sounds like a plan. Even better lets skip our appointment's and head straight for said plan

Should we play doctor or ? *looks innocent* you know I do not play in public lounges, so.........................

This is for Firmhanded_Daddy, so we don't hijack the music thread...

But how do you expand from swords? Are you going to have like platemail suits and polearms in your house? How does your wife feel about that? Do your children play with them?

-Tugged into this thread-

The only reason I agreed to get married at the ren fest was so I could wear my claymore, and not have to wear a suit. Well that and it was cheap and a lot of the details were taken care of for us.

I was thinking of a suit of plate being the masterpiece of my collection, perhaps even fitted with me and with my family crest. My father and aunt on his side have done a lot of digging into our past and traced my lineage back far enough to find a family crest, and also to find our family Tartan.

Expending from swords, I was thinking maybe maces, flails some historically accurate longbows. A pole arm of some sort would be cool.. Though I'd really like to have a historically accurate Pilum. Such a clever little invention. A throwing spear that breaks upon impact so it can't be thrown back.

The wife is as much a nerd as I am. She tried to talk me into getting a tattoo when she got her last one, but I told her I would just get a D20 as a joke and she tried to get me to do it >.<

Don't have any kids, unless you count cats, and golden retrievers.

Just remember never to confuse a Morning Star with a Flail.

That would be pretty amusing. One of the two of them might even be strong enough to do it effectively. He's a little grizzly bear in disguise I swear to god. For a 60 lb dog he can yank my ass down the stairs pretty effectively.

Randomness...hmmm. While I fully admit to being obsessed with the artwork of certain authors, and the idea that there might be aliens who developed along similar (but drastically different) physiological lines to us, I would also like to say that there is quite a bit of Furry artwork that creeps me the fuck out. So to that end, things I stay away from.

'Taurs: For those who don't know, a 'Taur is generally a Furry that has the torso, head, shoulders, and arms of a humanoid figure (albeit in furry form) as well as the fourlegged body of the respective animal (upon which the humanoid form from waist up sits). If you've ever seen one, you probably understand why they creep me out.

Certain genera will always creep me out (Furry is a term misused to describe ALL things anthro, including aquatic, avian, and reptilian creatures. I think I've said too much already).

Some light bondage (a la Sasha as a demure little bunny looking like she needs punishment...or affirmation) is okay, but stuff that looks like it's out of a medieval torture chamber is out of the question.

And then there's something that will probably scar you as much as it has me. For some reason, there are quite a few artists who draw anthros with the basic humanoid form, but multiple pairs of breasts....*shudders* Ewwww.

Today's random fun fact is about pets.

While many people prefer the soft, beautiful white fur of the mink or ermine, they don't make good pets. They are violent, vengeful creatures, very unfriendly. The lowly ferret, however, which most people shy away from due to its usually dingy grey fur, and reputation to be a thief, is a very friendly, very loving animal, and makes an excellent pet.

My thought today is selfish ..I know that, and I also know it's only cause my cold has settled in and is killing me, and I'm feeling sorry for myself.

I miss my old first group of friends online. I miss seeing their name on my messenger as logged in, as they're no longer there, such is the nature of the web. I miss being the one to be contacted soon as I logged in. I miss them all , but one girl in particular, who's RL took her away from our circle because of a husbands jealousy. I miss being part of a group that was creating something special on a site that has unfortunately closed.

My friends now are precious, and probably truer friends and confidants than those first friends..., and I'd be lost without them..; especially without one wonderful New Yorker I speak with daily, and who I trust and who he trusts.. ....but I miss my girls.

The Marine Corps, while it lives by the Latin phrase Semper Fidelis, or Always Faithful, tends more to be governed by the motto "Death Before Dishonor", as evidenced by the Marine credo to never leave a man behind in combat. To do so would be a dishonor to the survivors.

Sorry, dragon. I've known people who had ferrets, and...this.

Maybe not all ferrets.

Lol. Well that's just them not being cleaned thoroughly . But from the simple standpoint of behaviour and personality, ferrets are better than minks or ermines.

If you were going to make a commercial for a halloween costume and supply store, and you were going to have everyone dancing to Thriller, wouldn't you have them all doing the Thriller dance?

This is driving me nuts. Have we any movie buffs out there?

I've been trying to remember the name of a movie I watched I think in the late 1990s?..I honestly thought Kevin Bacon was in it, and it was called Zodiac. But when I look it up, the only Zodiac movies I find are more recent with Robert Downey jr, and one other, recent also, but not with Kevin Bacon. I'm not even sure anymore id Bacon was in it.. All I can remember is it was an obvious thriller/murderer..and the main character was a cop who I think was burned out, but when a spate of murders happen he's called back to help. And its him that notices that the killings are all happening based to the calender month.

This is driving me absolutely nuts.! I'm not even wanting to see the movie, I just want to know the name, as it's like nails on a black board for me now. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

I know the information is slight, but its all I can remember, I've googled and no joy no matter what way I word it. It's the kind of useless info someone might just have in their general knowledge.

Thanks.

 

[sallythescorpian]

Alana the movie you're thinking of is Zodiac with Mark Ruffalo!

 

[Alana_]

No Sall...sorry. Thats the other more recent one..The one i'm stuck on was i think made in the 90's, as it's years ago since ive seen it. But thank you..hugggggs

 

[Veroe]

Have you tried IMDB, Alana.
It'll tell you all the films Kevin Bacon's been in.

though with Kevin Bacon that'll be a long list.

Haha

(This was a joke, right?)

Have done Ahren...looks like I may be wrong about it being him....Don't worry about it..It'll maybe come to me..it's just driving me mad right now.
