  1. Bizzarre and able to hold their liquor! Just watched a 6'6" football player get his ass handed to him by an itty-bitty little japanese girl while they were matching shots :-) Kinda makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside... Or in his case queasy.

  2. What would REALLY be nice, in my "computers are magic and if you click your heels together three times and wish really hard they'll do whatever you want" world (where admittedly the sky is a funny lime green color and nobody makes me go to class) would be for there to be a way to import or save the old forum, or at least the active threads.

     

    Yeah yeah, I know, not gonna happen, but maybe if we clap our hands REAL hard and say "I do believe in fairies...."

  3. Aww, but that's beyond depressing. I half expect a new rash of suicide cults to pop up after November's elections... In much more entertaining news:

     

    Punch-up at tomb of Jesus

     

    Allyn Fisher-Ilan in Jerusalem

    Tuesday September 28, 2004

    The Guardian

     

    Fistfights broke out yesterday between Christians gathered on the site of the crucifixion and burial of Jesus Christ.

     

    "There was lots of hitting going on. Police were hit, monks were hit ... there were people with bloodied faces," said a witness in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, reputed to be Golgotha where Christ was crucified, and the site of the tomb where he was buried.

     

    The punch-up erupted during a procession to mark the discovery in 327 by Helena, mother of Constantine, of the True Cross.

     

    A Greek Orthodox cleric said Franciscans had left open their chapel door in what was taken as disrespect. Priests and worshippers hit one another at the doorway dividing Orthodox and Franciscans, said a police spokesman.

     

    Arrests were made but nobody was seriously hurt.

     

    "This is supposed to be a festive time," said Pandelemos, an Orthodox cleric afterward at the site of the tomb.

     

    "We are all Christians, and there is nothing to fight about," said David Khoury, a Franciscan.

     

    The row was the latest in a series of disputes at the church, where six Christian denominations guard rights laid down in an Ottoman law of 1757 to separate parts of the Romanesque building, built by Crusaders in 1149 on the earlier Byzantine basilica.

     

    Two years ago, Ethiopian and Copt monks threw stones at each other over rights to the church roof.

  4. Aw, come on Rogan, not more Bush bullshit... It's on every channel, every newspaper, every radio station, can't we at least leave it out of the Hellblazer forum? I admit it, my country elected an imbecil for a president. Worse, there's a good chance they'll re-elect him come November. Short of a tactical nuke I haven't come up with a way to get around this situation, but can we at least not beat it into the ground anymore? Pretty please? With surgar on top?

  5. Depends on your taste, it runs more to the cute than the creepy. If it weren't for all of the nudity (camouflaged by strategicly placed bison horns, text boxes, people) and sex I'd probably compare it to Courtney Crumrin, with maybe a little bit of "Thesselaid" thrown in. I picked it up 'cause it had a (very mild) Lucifer crossover, but it's turned out a lot better than I expected (if you like the style).
  6. So has anybody else fallen in love with this title?
