  1. Shit, it seems I missed all of Erika's postings. Were they deleted, John? <EDIT>

    Erika, if you read this and are still around, I'd still want to see the pics. Maybe you could PM me?

     

    Here's me with beard:

    ...and without (or with a lot less, anyway):

    ...and here's my big secret :D :

  2. Although I'm not yet sure what exactly is going on in your life, I just want you to know that I really really hope it turns out for the best! You deserve the best in life, Beki!

     

    And that goes for you too, Meaner. Think of it this way - getting confirmation that it's a no-go situtation might allow you to move on, no?

     

    (man, I suck at cheering up today..)

  3. (You dont think hes got himself a girlfriend or a life and left us all behind do you ? :( )

    *Gets off motorcycle, wipes whale blood from hands, puts down bag of baby seals' heads*

     

    HUH?

     

    Well, now Donny, you KNOW that's just crazy talk. The day pigs fly, my friend, the day pigs fly...

     

    Anyway, yes, I've been away, in Copenhagen and Bruxelles, a study trip about the EU and environment organized by Friends of the Earth Norway. 20 students and young adults, one week, lots of belgian beer and listening to various people talking about the EU - good fun! Bruxelles is not a very impressive city - some nice spots here and there, but horribly polluted, and the whole city is sort of a building site. And their computers have silly silly french-style keyboards, and their internet cafés are expensive and don't allow access to this kind of site... :( (Not that I had much time to try, mind you). Now I'm back at work, trying to ignore the avalanche of work piled up since I went away, and catching up on this board, which seems a Sisyphosian task at best.

     

    Nice to know I've been missed!

  4. So, having been in Bruxelles and missing most of this discussion, I really don't have much to add. I loved the issue, gave it a 10, although I *might* have overdone it there...

    Anyway, just one thing: Why are demons so easily fooled by JC? Because they don't have souls! This makes them unable to grasp the nuances and complexities of human relationships. They may be cunning, and extremely powerful, but they can never really "get" people. It's the same in "Lucifer" - in the "Dalliance with the Damned" arc, Lucifer, to PUNISH a demon gives him a soul, because then he can be endlessly tortured, and feel real anguish, instead of just ceasing to exist, as demons otherwise do.

     

    And yes, Rosa has badly underestimated John (because she, too is a demon, even though she's more cunning than most of them), and will pay BADLY for that mistake.

  5. do we even want to know?

    Yes.

     

     

    Anyway, I have to be off. And just so all of you know, I might not be around much in the coming week. I am, you see, off into the great unkown, to chart paths and weave trails where no man has trod before, to boldly explore...

     

    Actually, I'm just going to Copenhagen and Bruxelles. But it'll be ace anyway... :)

  6. Hmmm...

     

    History, I guess, specifically modern history. Specifically privatization.

     

    Music & composition.

     

    Politics... :blink:

     

    Oh, and Charlie isn't joking about knowing a shitload about martial arts...he DOES!

  7. Well, I'm Red. That is, my real name is Pål (that's Paul for all you non-scandinavian heathens), and I'm a Norwegian conoisseur of all things creative - music, literature, comics, film etc. I'm educated as an historian, but works for an environmental organization, and compose music and write comics on the side. My handle is indicative of my political leanings, not my hair colour.

     

    This is me: (taken today with a shitty webcam thingie)

    PS! Rogan is ACTUALLY named Drashko Roganovich. Roganovich means "son of the horned one". But in reality he's an AI controlled by a network of Serbian hackers intent on world domination, starting with this board.

  8. I have one REAL gripe: Everything posted in the "Show your wares" forum will be lost! :(

     

    And you really really should have a long transitional period, John. Remember, a LOT of people don't log in every day. We don't want to lose a lot of people do we now. (Unless that was the plan all along...GASP! :blink: )

  9. So, I made this on the old board as well, but that will probably NEVER EVER be replied to, so her I go again. I want you to post amusing mishearings of lyrics. I'll start with one made by a guy I know. He thought the lyrics to the Prodigy's "Breathe the pressure" were:

    "Freak from Asia

    Come be my camel taster!"

     

    Now it's your turn...
