Huh. That's less than 10 condoms per person. Though, assuming an even split between gender, that's almost 20 condoms per penis, so I certainly hope that would suffice for the three weeks they're there. -Alferd Packer

Why do I get the feeling Comrade Colfax here is going to meet the same fate as Omegafail? He thinks he's funnier than he is, he gets his undies in a twist way too easily, and he always finds himself on the business end of the board, at which point he refuses to back down. I was like that at one point, and I grew out of it ASAP. Schuyler...is having trouble doing so.

So I came up with some A-10 ones, just because the one ont the last page pissed me off with the incorrect use of an apostrophe, and then I made my own as a real tribute to my sig.

I don't know the source, I just know that it matches up disturbingly well with several personal experiences.

A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

As for the Lifetouch one, that's the company name, not a process used on that image (I used to work for them). It's also sad that I recognized two things about that image:
  1. The Background is off - the right side is higher than the left - I can tell because that was the same "Watercolors" drop that I used all the time
  2. The Camera is either to high or out of place because you can see the black floor mat (which looks to be in great condition
Also - kids like that tend to be photographer's worst nightmares because while most parents of kids that look like that understand you can't do miracles, some bitch anyway (I'd say 1 in 20 bitch).

The Harpoon one was great! I also liked the Moonwalk one, but it was posted earlier in the thread.

Does anybody know the name of the game from Inevitability? I know I've played it...

Skifree. I forget just how old it is, but I got hooked on computing around the same time, so it's old. Wikipedia.
