Aha - Take me on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leMzjdb2WVw&search=take%20me%20on Gorrilaz - 19-2000 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXmMXxHEeUs&search=19-2000 Keane - Bedshaped http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPbSqSaz44I&search=keane These all scare and awe me a little bit, but that's just me. All great songs too.

I would also like to compliment Raining again for being so darn nice, The Fish for having the coolest avatars ever, and Arab Freak, for being... well, arab freak, really.

Yes, Join us! Meanewhile - my spanking new frigate! It's still actually pretty tiny compared to some of the other ships you see floating about, but I needed something for the more combat orientated missions. This game is awfully morish.

Violence in football is a bad thing, and had he kicked or punched him it would be horrible. The fact it was a HEADBUTT though, raises the incident to legendery status.

If you need the numbers I can play Trackmania tommorow. I assume you'll post the server name here?

Honestly, I actually think this law is a good idea. 8% is a crap load of energy and subsquent carbon emmisions. I do wonder hpw this will affect the Wii though.

Given what's already been posted, I can barely begin imagine what yours contained. One quick one -

It's quite something isn't it? What race are you? Upgrade your ship control trait a couple of times first so you have the skill to pilot something a little bigger as soon as you can afford it. Another mission and I'm bagging me a Galante frigate!

You should be fine in Israel, just don't accidentally wander over the 10-foot high wall they're building around Gaza.

There is one bonus here - late-late-night/early-early-morning Star Trek Next Generation. Picard is a sexy as he ever was.

I disagree. Most polls show an average of 63% in favour of a two state solution in Palestinian territory, while Lebanon has repetedly called for a ceasfire. I understand why everyone is a bit pissed, but a total faliure to negotiate from all sides has lead to this resurgence in the conflict.

This is one of those horrible conflicts where all the Governments involved have everything to gain, but the innocents caught in between are the ones who suffer. The Israeli, Plastinian and Lebanese governments can all expect huge political capital from their own people by continuing hostilites against each other, while innocent civilians are being bombed, shelled and hit by rockets.

It's another typically Middle-Eastern mess. Kidanapping Israeli soldiers was bad enough, but now shelling and bombing Palestinian and Lebanese civilians? What's the point of it all?

You really should at least try the free trial. The game world is phenominally huge. To fly a course from one end of the map to the other would take hours, if not days. It's not hard to get to started but it'll take you a while to get into the game proper, eg. join a non-NPC Corperation, get a kick ass ride and really start getting into your career. Theres a clever system in which areas of space are heavily guarded by NPC fleets to protect newbies, so you don't have to worry about being attacked by marauding pirates until you start venturing further out.

Cybersex - What is the point?

I personally don't think that education, reality TV or most anything is a good measure of someone's intelligence. I only got three Scottish Cs, so I should technically be a dribbiling "Reality" TV-obsessed idiot incapable of spelling, destined for a life of degrading office labour. To be honest I'd rather die. An office job I can handle, but I'd rather be flayed alive than watch Love Island. Then again, watching reality TV doesn't make you an idiot - you might have bad taste in television, but can probably pick out an excellent book at twenty paces using just your sense of smell. I don't like labaling someone as an idiot based purely on what they do, how succesful they are, or what they're interested in - people should be judged on their strength of character, not their idle pastimes. It's not right to make assumptions about people you've never met.

When you sign up you get a free 14-day trial, so give it a go. The actual game is free as is all of it's exapansions and patches. It's (holy crap I don't have a euro key) E19.99, about £14 a month after your trial. I'm still on my trial but I think i'll also while away the summer with it. The tutorial is massive, but don't be put off it's incredibly useful. The graphics are one-size fits all, but the required specs aren't too high I think. http://www.eve-online.com

EVE. I'm utterly hooked. It's simply georgeous. This is me preparing to warp home after a succesful mining foray.

well, that's something I hope I never have to hear again. Going back to the movie theme -

No Shino... just... no.

I can't believe this is only going out in the States as a limited release. My local cinema had better bloody show this film.

What, already? Wowserz, can't imagine DDR3 RAM will come too cheap though.

It's 2:46 and I have a headache I'm just so tired, so... why.... can't... I.... SLEEP??

Shino, how on earth did you pull that alien one? It's so realistic it's bizarre.
