Picked up a big honkin' meat cleaver in chinatown while visiting friends in Montreal this weekend. Fortunately it was cheap enough that I could justify its position on the "Things I actually need" vs "Things that are badass" chart.

Unfortunately it's being packed away for now since I'm moving soon, but once I have my kitchen set up, I'll butcher a chicken just for you.

Is it filed under "kitchen utensils" or "badassery"?

Honestly? I always felt WildCATS was basically a complete X-Men rip. I could buy that Spawn or Savage Dragon were concepts that McFarlane and Larson (respectively) may have been doodling in their notebooks in high school and they always had a rough idea what they wanted to do. But Lee's WildCATS seemed to me like a situation where he very clearly said "I made a truckload of money when I drew X-Men..hell they picked me over Chris Claremont, the guy who did every important X-Men story ever when he challenged me...so I'll just create my own X-Men and then keep all the money from it...wheeeee!" Although maybe he didn't say wheeeee!

I want to play that too, although that's not a possibility.
I have just a PS2.
It will a few more years until I can actually buy one.

What operating system dose it come with? Because if its not a 64bit one, you wont be able to use half of the ram you have. And that equals money wasted!

It's hard to find anything today without Windoze 7 or Mac OSX installed. Both fit the bill.

My new computer came with vista already installed when I bought it last year, and I haven't had any major problems with the operating system itself as I have had with this computer. It crashed two weeks after I got it due to some unknown/unforeseen hardware error, and I had to completely reinstall windows just to get it back up and running.
And what beat all was that the guy at Office Depot told me when I was buying a new license for Vista (my comp didn't come with one) that the Acer I had bought really wasn't meant for much beyond just "light use" and some other crap... so while the salesman two weeks earlier assured me I was getting a good PC for the price, the flunkie two weeks later admitted they were sub par.
In situations like that, I have to wonder....
WHAT WOULD FUNK DO?

I quite like this modern twist on a classic, by an American band no less. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1WHkcovc i8
Tell of the Easter rising in 1916 when the republic was formed. Mentions the Irish who fought for freedom by joining the British army during WW1 and then Óglaigh na hÉireann during the rising when homerule didn't happen.
Either that or kinky boots!

woops....I was supposed to have a smiley face on that one. Did sound a little harsh, didn't it?
speaking of which:
Forget the edit button, forget the preview post button.
All these boards really need is a sarcasm button.
Good idea?
Or Great idea?

I have 3 vista machines now. 2 desktops (one high-end one..ish) and a laptop. They all run perfectly fine. I've never had an operating system problem on any of them. Hardware is another story. I liked XP. Evark had a windows 7 laptop when he visited last and he said he really liked it.

Usually when I think of Irish music, I think of stuff like Celtic Guitar (clicky), the kind of stuff my mother used to play over the GROSSLY expensive Sony Stereo System my dad bought her when all she wanted was a boombox.
My dad's weird that way, guy can't take a hint.

Alternativly that music made me admire how the universal gift of music can be so simply imbued by a national identity, think back to the history many Americans forget we have in our worldly heritage and then want to watch boondock saints again. All that had in common was making me ashamed all I've listened to Irish wise was some early U2 and then celtic thunder. I'm from Massachusetts. I should do St. Patrick's better than that.

I am wasted right now. I've posted on forums wasted before--hell, I'm such a grammar Nazi I keep backspacing to fix my grammar. One time it took me 15 minutes to make a post for that reason.
Some of my classmates started the drinking early. I at least wanted to be coherent for class.
BTW, two guys from my college are in this ad: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eteWVqVPc TQ
My boyfriend asked, "Does St. Patrick leave snakes in your stocking if you're bad?" Good question.

Looks like people are having fun for St. Patrick's.
I think I'm the only one who forgot that about today.
Although, to be fair-- I don't drink unless it's a social gathering, and there isn't a social gathering for me to get into.
I did went to the gym...
Does anyone knew that Sean Connery was a bodybuilder before he became famous?
I was shocked--
That's what somebody told me today in the gym. I even googled up his pic. Sure enough, he was a Mr. Universe before.

Well then you can drink whenever you want, if a social gathering is all you require !
You can be in the middle of the most isolated place on Earth & have a few belts ...& still be apart of that 'social' gathering, you say is required for you to drink.
How is that you ask ?
Human Skin is an ecosystem that harbours microbial communities...THAT"S RIGHT whole "communities, of bacteria all gathering together & getting it on ! ! ! There is a huge number of organisms gathering socially in many different places all over you !

So if that article doesn't make you want to drink, I know it makes me want a couple (just to try & forget !!) It will probably make you want to bath in alcohol.

I just moved a chest-of-drawers from the upstairs of my house... to the downstairs... by myself.
It was an ingenious bit of work. I simply turned the whole thing upside down on it's top, set it on a heavy comforter blanket, and proceeded to slide it down the stairs (I was in front of it on the way down). Got it downstairs, put a dish rag underneath each leg, and proceeded to slide it across the hardwood to my new room.
God I'm tired.

Took my car in to get fixed a couple of days ago, one of the things they fixed was the outside door handle of the drivers side door, wouldn't open from the outside, when I went to pick it up today not only could I not open it up from the outside but I couldn't open up from the inside ether, so they have to fix that now, they better not charge more for that.
