    Gears of War

    Which in turn was identical to Command & Conquer, and before that Dune II, which we were playing 15 years ago.... What amuses me most is that although the technology and the complexity of these games has changed, the strategy of playing them is EXACTLY the same as it was back then!

    From http://www.albeedigital.com/supercoupe/articles/0-60times.html 1994 Toyota Supra 6.9s 15.2 1/4 1999 BMW 328i 6.9s 15.2 1/4 1996 BMW 328i Sport 6.4s 15.0 1/4 2001 BMW 330i 6.1s 14.8 1/4 My last car was a 1995 BMW 328i (not Sport, tho) and did about a 7s 0-60 (although my advice is don't touch a '95 328i - the stem seals don't last more than about 60k miles - mine got worse mpg rates than my Supra TT, burned off about the same in oil and finally went up in a ball of flames! Apparently they fixed all these problems in the '96 re-issue, tho).
  3. A couple of cars ago I had a little '92 1.8 Clio 16v - that was great fun, although the lift-off oversteer was crazy - I learned my lesson VERY quickly!
  4. Simple Men is the best film ever. Fact.
  5. I wish scientists would come up with a way to make dogs a lot bigger, but with a smaller head. That way, they'd still be good as watchdogs, but they wouldn't eat as much.
  6. If the Vikings were around today, they would probably be amazed at how much glow-in-the-dark stuff we have, and how we take so much of it for granted. We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients. But we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me.
  7. It makes me mad when I go to all the trouble of having Martha cook up about a hundred drumsticks, the the guy at the Marineland says, "You can't throw chicken to the dolphins. They eat fish." Sure they eat fish, if that's all you give them. Man, wise up.
  8. I think a good movie would be about a guy who's a brain scientist, but he gets hit on the head and it damages the part of the brain the makes you want to study the brain.
  9. If you're ever stuck in some thick undergrowth, in your underwear, don't stop and think of what other words have 'under' in them, because that's probably the first sign of jungle madness.
  10. Contrary to popular belief, the most dangerous animal is not the lion or tiger or even the elephant. The most dangerous animal is a shark riding on an elephant, just trampling and eating everything they see.
  11. I think people tend to forget that trees are living creatures. They're sort of like dogs. Huge, quiet, motionless dogs, with bark instead of fur.
  12. Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk, my first instinct is to laugh. But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me. Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.
  13. If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.
  14. I can still recall old Mister Barnslow getting out every morning and nailing a fresh load of tadpoles to the old board of his. Then he'd spin it round and round, like a wheel of fortune, and no matter where it stopped he'd yell out, "Tadpoles! Tadpoles is a winner!" We all thought he was crazy. But then we had some growing up to do.
  15. Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis.

  17. Don't use a big word where a diminutive one will suffice.
  18. Why is "abbreviation" such a long word?
  19. How can you tell if your wife is dead? The sex is the same but the dishes pile up
  20. When a man talks nasty to a woman, it's sexual harassment. What is it when a woman talks nasty to a man? £1.99 a minute
  21. A neutron goes into a bar and asks the bartender, "How much for a beer?" The bartender replies, "For you, no charge."
  22. I bought some powdered water, but I don't know what to add to it.
  23. I bought a dog the other day...I named him Stay. It's fun to call him... "Come here, Stay! Come here, Stay!" He went insane. Now he just ignores me and keeps typing.
