Nope. Never has as a matter of fact.

Frack. I wonder what the problem is? It used to work for me, at least.

earth much? Have you practis'd so long to learn to read?
Have you felt so proud to get at the meaning of poems?

Hmm, that might be the problem. I'm on Firefox, too.

Tsk, tsk. Bad Firefox!

You know I spent most of the night trying to convince Godzilla to come for a visit. He is such a good friend to us. Well, Ivan, set us up with some nice cocktails and we'll break this place in properly! Oh look....a karaoke machine! We'll have to wait a few rounds.

EE...Yep..not working on firefox...but I have the pop ups disabled...would that make a difference?

For gods sake, if you're going to get 6 TB, don't put it in RAID 0 - you might as well just install the disks and be done with it, why bother with RAID if there's no redundancy? Go for three (or more) hard drives and put it into RAID 5.

Ah you all can speak Japanese :clap:

Well, the pleasant dreams suck, then. Pretty much all my dreams suck, for that matter. They're either bad ones that screw with my head or good ones that make me wish I'd never woken up.

Yes, it sucks when you wake up, but my good dreams sometimes let me live out my fantasies. And before your minds go directly into the gutter, those fantasies usually involve things like living through the zombie-pocalypse.

The reason I need so much harddrive space is that I use Alcohol 52% almost religiously. Considering getting 120 someday, but the free one works for me right now. Every game I own is installed on the computer, with an ISO of its disc as well. Means I never have to disc swap for games anymore, load times are faster, and I can protect my discs as well. Quite handy.

Yes, that is a Bibleman action figure. It's pretty much what it sounds like. And it's only 3 dollars. I'm thinking I may need to buy one, cause.... well, why not?

Raptor uses Mac and Firefox without problems.

I have played Warcrack.

I just got off a very long session. It actually isn't the most exciting game, but it is enjoyable in its way. Very simple. I mostly enjoy being immersed in the world. The graphics are gorgeous.

Quote

I've occasionally had ones like that (once I dreamed I was fist-fighting a zombie in a bar in the arctic (seriously) (I won, BTW

)). But mostly, my good dreams are simpler and depict situations that are far better than my real life. It's very disheartening and disturbing when I wake up.

**Kora'Tor walks towards the Teahouse...New temporary home of the Ten Forward (XVI) bar. She slides the door open. Two Ladies meet her at the Door. One a full Geisha the other her apprentice. (Maiko)

"Asami, Masuyo...Konbanwa." She bows. "I see my friends have arrived."

"Hai! Commander Kora-san. Thay have just arrived with in the last 24 hours." The tall one (Asami) said.

"Ah, I see. Well, we'll treat this place with respect." Kora' Tor said as she slipped off her boots. "If they don't I am sure Terri-lynn, one of the other higher ups will handle it. If not I will step in. After all you are my friends."

Both women smiled.

Masuyo, the Maiko, nodded and opened the inside sliding door with a smile.

Kora' Tor nodded, smiled and walked in.**

Konnichiwa Everyone! *Kora says to the others. As she walks in, in Uniform.*

Sorry, I have been gone so long. Something is happening on the Romulan Boarder and the Enterprise has been sent to handle it. Saves damage being done to my engines. But that just means I might need to leave at a moments notice again. For now maybe I can finish off my vacation.

So, what you all been up too?

*To whom ever is at bar*...'Nihonshu', please. (means* "Japanese sake.")
