Needed those points! My last game is on friday against the bottom of the league Mcoy! All my players are 100% except for perhaps the two players that should probably have priority -- my 19 and 20 year old midfielders!! Methinks next season I need to really, really, really forget promotion and just get some growth. Giggle!

Ah I guess I mean the setting for book 4, then -- where we see the story of how Roland met Susan.
I've basically read all the books so far in something like 4 months? It's been a proper thrill - going from the first book to having the doors in the second, to bringing jake back in the third, to Lud and Oz and New York and even King himself, it's basically been hugely unpredictable. A couple of times it was dull to read, but only because (with book 4 especially) I thought I was reading an appetiser - only after like 400 pages did I realise the whole book was going to be about that!
I might go back over Gunslinger after book 7, not sure. Definitely want to read King's other stuff - he claims that most/all of his books are in some way to do with the Dark Tower, but yeah I'll start with the obvious Salem's Lot, The Stand, Insomnia, It...

I did. Because he's posted a picture of himself a few times. *shrug*

TACTICS SETTT!! A cruncher of a game for me -- this and friday are my last games, I really need to get a win tomorrow to ensure my safety... Not liking the nerves though!

Started watching this, finished playing that, ate these things, smoked those. I am a licenced private investigator. Not really.

Rude Tube was so fun Didn't realise how much I'd missed! "Charlie bit me" is still shit, though.

Bard - Pinkers? A simple read... Thought you'd delve deeper than that! EDIT: Good introductory books though. I only read about how much you did though. Bored.

Lady Sovereign and Basshunter talking about Power Rangers? What's not to like!

You get what you invest. Let it bleeeeeed!

Well... Er... AIDS is quite catchy...

Hate to say it, but I might actually watch this when I remember. Them being celebs already makes it much more amusing

Watching them going in is always quality entertainment. "Hi! Who are you? What do you mean you don't know who I am? Do you think anyone can notice how many drugs I'm on right now?"

no, seriously, what happened last june?

This post annoys me massively for several reasons; - generalisations - nonsense - stupidness - ignorance - apathy - patronising - Fail. I did try to cover my reasons for my reactions, but it was just infuriating me - mostly because I realised I was writing a fucking essay, and nobody likes a smarm.

I was under the impression microsoft would repair your xbox if it got a RROD no matter whether it was under warranty or not. Me so wrongly?

Picking moths from between my teeth with toothpicks from the ghetto. Sticking to my discarded, much-tested, much-failed routine of Going To Netto. Green on teh floor, the salt's escaped. Living through triple-filtered chemistry and whatever I can find in the freezer. It's really better if only I know.

for daft; You're not so much egotistical, more that you just have a lack of self-awareness that you mistake for perfection. P.S. Thanking the post does not count as a response.

(wouldn't let me post the whole thing in one go)
I've found outr JJ Abrahms (fuck the spelling) has the 'movie' rights to it, so we might expect to see either a solid lost-esque series of our favourite books, or harry-potter-esque films. Personally I'd love to see a TV series of it, with a mini-series of book 1 to start it off -- even though book 5 is the biggest I could imagine a tv series to reduce it heavily, maybe even intertwine it with books 2, 3 and 4 to continue the main story as much as possible (akin to the flashbacks of Lost - have segments of the [that town that book 5 is set in, i've forgotten]) then books 6 and 7 would be regular seasons.
if it was movies then it would be too inbalanced. Would love to see that!

JUST started reading book 7! literallly about 20 pages into it! Should be done by the end of february... Really loving it all, but scared to finish it. My housemate lent me the first book when he was on book 3 - He's currently on book 6 as I've started 7, and I probably started it all around september. Don't spoil it at all!

NEW YEARS RESOLUTION Use less capital letters. Especially for letters thrice in a row. Involves pancakes? No. Carrots. There aren't any cameras. You are the only person that can see those little moments of trivia, of delerium. Trivium. The secret to getting on with the rest of the people that are trying to get on with is to stop trying to see beyond what they're saying. Forget that people have feelings (because) they are gay. Also! Once a week, build your own wheely-bin. Plants are massive. Wild west. Deployed by the world. I'm the only gunslinger that tells the truth. In teh end, we all agree. THe most futurable act in our history - I don't want anything, or anyone to go for sitting bull. I think that's why they cook. To tell blind cody that I ain't the only guy going after sitting bull. SITTING BULL. He's with us. In the south marina. Rhythm F. Cody. In a heart attack, ride up to the ridge and split the difference with teh guy that followed you. And stop now. P.S. Sitting Bull.

The thing is, Dan, nobody knows what you're talking about.

RE: Being A Whole New Person I agree with Fish that we are naturally changing as time passes, but to make this response My Own I have to relay this iota of interest via my own personal life. I've gone from a(n over) confident, don't-give-a-shit, my-life-is-so-interesting individual to a withdrawn, I'm-so-boring, nobody-cares-about-me personality in less than a year. This was all unwanted. Unneeded. But previous to this I had gone from a corner-sitter to the aforementioned self-obsessed individual. I made a conscious choice to not give a shit about other people's opinions. I think it's perfectly possible to completely change, but only, really, if the person you are is who you aren't really. Just letting go and being yourself is really, really easy. Trying to be someone you're not is not. Confession: I think too much. It's the paranoiac in me. I've realised that nobody cares as much as me about me, and it's really (suddenly) castrated my ability to communicate, my freedom to speak, my ability to not give a shit. Currently I worry about what everyone thinks of me. Currently I am just simply so damn aware of my position in life. I am not an alpha male. That person is. That person isn't. These people like me. These people don't give a shit about me. My face means this. That face means that. She thinks about cheese. He thinks about Shoelaces. I'm tired of evolving, of finding new this and novel that. I want a brother. I want a sister (yes i have one but she doesn't count because we don't talk and are unalike). I want this whole 'family' thing, but with friends. I want people to want me. Hey! Robert Altman!

All I can say is FUCK YOU NEW YEARS THREADS. There's far too many. Wish I'd never gotten involved. Might merge them ALL later when I'm far more drunk.

Sorry but I have no qualms at all with supporting a mum of 15 kids. 30k really is nothing at all to help with the children - if anything I'd say she should have more. The reason why this IS NOT a disgusting waste of tax payers' money is because she is giving the country 15 people who can each end up paying the government taxes that they can use to really waste their money (on EMAs and flowers) which is more than YOU'RE doing for the government. PLUS (real argument) that's fifteen real people brought into the earth. Give her some slack. MY OWN RESPONSE TO THE OP! I have no real problems with any current fashions/trends. I have already digivolved into an Old Geyser who has no idea what the Cool Thing is, anyway... I have an Arthur Dent dressing gown. Nothing official, it just looks The Deal.

I have a feeling the film might've been Before Sunrise or Mirrormask... either way he makes out as if I made his whole trip sucky :P SPAMBOT!! I want to know what happened in teh end!
