I thought they already were. Why else would we be innudated with crappy supposed-to-be-comedies like Balls of Fury? *gag*

But.....Kirk didn't serve with Pike! Spock did, but Kirk didn't meet Pike until much later. *garblarguh*

Bah, the only reason he wasn't chasing the women in the movies is because there wasn't much to chase. Except that oceanographer in the 4th one, which he didn't get very far with. Besides, he was older and couldn't run as fast.

Kirk has always been about chasing the ladies and looking for a good fight. Why should that change?

have them both and love them! Serenity has some story errors if you've seen Firefly, but you can ignore them for the most part. I really enjoyed the series and really wish they could've gone at least a couple more seasons. Unfortunatly, I don't think they'll ever revisit it, not after what happened in the movie.

you never told me you did an AC guild!....i would've been on more if i knew that....*pouts*....

I just saw it in Quantum of Solace. I dunno. If I cared nothing about the original Star Trek, I would be super excited because it looks good. I think I'm going to try and convince myself it's more like an AU series. Mostly because I know they're going to change a LOT about the characters and the entire ST universe, but if it's an AU type of thing, it won't matter. Does that make sense? ^^;

Why am I not surprised? ><

maybe it's overheating? If you can get into the BIOS settings, most of them have a temp reading of the CPU. I know when my last one went out, it was doing the same thing and it was because it was overheating.

I am...go for it!

well, it's a full animation with sound. Of course it's going to be big. I pared down the frames as much as possible, and it's only a couple of looped frames, but it's still not going to be a small file.

No, I'm sure you're right. I was just pointing out that marriage isn't really a government institution, it just defines certian rights based on what it considers marrage to be.

Actually, it's both. If you can find a faith to marry you, you can be married in the eyes of whatever religion you choose. But the government won't grant you married status, which allows you to claim taxes as married or other such benifits.

For you RPG fans, I've been in a forum RPG for a while now, but due to server problems, schedule problems and various other things, it's kinda stalled and is now in danger of dying. I don't want it to die. We've had fun so far, and even though I rather suck at it, I'd really like to keep it going. So if you're remotely interested in fantasy RPGs, check it out. It's loosely based on the Final Fantasy worlds, but is a new world with no previous characters, so it's a fresh slate. Mists of Bel'Serea Mists of Bel'Serea board

I didn't think about Google Docs. I dont' remember if they can open the latest Office versions, but it's worth a shot and it's free.

That site won't work b/c the swf file is bigger than their max size. ><

Then how come the US has such a high divorce rate? I'm just saying.....

You probally need the 2007 version of Office to open it. In which case, your client needs to save it down to a 2000 version.

it won't read in .swf format, only output into it....><...

Ok, here's the deal. I'm making a flash animation. Fine. Got the frames done so it works. Good. The problem is, the .swf file will change framerate based on browser and computer. Not good. So I want to convert it to a video, even though the quality will be a little less. However, I can't find a decent converter that doesn't screw up the final quality. I'm guessing it has to do with the final encoding, but no matter what I do, it always messes it up. I've updated all my codecs and players, and can't find one that actually works. So, any suggestions?

well, Tom Thumb has a rewards program where for every $100 cumulative you spend in a quarter, you get 10 cents off a gallon. And Raceway is always the cheapest gas around. They don't offer much inside, they don't take checks AT ALL, and they're usually only located in larger cities, with more of them along major gas routes. That way, they don't end up padding the price to pay for everything else. Their percents haven't gone up, at least at the ones I went to.

Letting someone copy homework because they were sick (or absent due to serious reasons) is one thing. I wouldn't do it except every once in a while, else they'll get to thinking they can mooch off you, but helping someone out like that, I don't see anything wrong with. Letting them copy your exam, espically when it's in the classroom, is not cool. Exams are supposed to test their knowledge, and if he knew an exam was coming up, he could've studied. After all, hospitials do have visiting hours, and he would've had time afterwards to study. Not to mention that getting caught would've cost you a grade because most teachers/professors will just simply give both parties an F, regardless of the circumstances. If he gripes about it, offer to study with him and help him out. If you do your homework at the same time, he definatlly gets his done, and ya'll might end up doing it faster because you're working together. And that way, at least he'll have a shot of doing good on the exam without cheating. Well, except take-home exams. Copying someone's answers on that is just lazy considering if you really want to cheat, you can just open the book and at least have a chance of writing up the answer in a way that isn't like anyone elses.

thanks to Tom Thumb's gas thing, i got it for $1.99. And I saw a Raceway today for $2.01. I might not have to rent my soul for gas money to go home for Christmas!

Yugi: "Tristian, I know I'm going to regret asking this, but why do you have motorbike?" Tristian: "Because in the future, card games will be played on motorbikes!" Yugi: "That is the stupidest thing that's ever come out of your mouth. Card games on motorbikes. Come on!" Ahh, Little Kuriboh. Will your shennanigans ever end?
