The Internet didn't change school curricula to exclude civics, home economics, advanced mathematics, or agriculture. That had been done well in advance of the paradigm shift of the late nineties and early 2000s that brought Yahoo and Google to every farmhouse without a horse and buggy in the driveway.

My old dog would eat cat barf. Top that.

Had a fun day out. Went to see Ant-Man and the Wasp and it was great. Then some game shopping and lunch. That's the perfect day for me.

That does sound like a pretty good day! :)

Well my cat has kidney failure most likely... hoping he'll pull through this rough patch somehow and stick around a bit longer if I can help it. My poor boy is only 7. This makes two loved ones being taken down by the same damned disease. :(

Oh fuck, I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope he pulls through.

Sorry to hear that WarmSignal. Hope he pulls through.

May I ask how the diagnosis came about?

I always heard X7 was really bad. Often when people hype something as the worst ever it's often while yes bad, an over exaggeration. I played about a half hour to give it a chance. Nope. Never again. This game is somehow worse than people say it is. It's not just a bad Mega Man game or just the worst Mega Man game. It's one of the worst games I ever played.

I’ve written a review (in my head) of this game, and this is word for word what I would say about it.

Of course, I took one for the team and played it all the way through. :cool:

If you can bring yourself to suffer through it, it does have a handful of shining moments. X8 is so much better.

Well, he had been loosing weight. I took him in for facial swelling around his nose area. Turns out he has an ulcer? A big green patch on the roof of his mouth, which I'm sure is painful. They also found him very dehydrated at the visit. There may be a chance the ulcer is to blame for him getting so dry, but I've had a feeling for a while that he's had problems due to frequent urination. They took blood, but he's got this oral infection, so I don't know that the results would come back normal. However, they interpreted the results as bad kidneys.

I'd like to see James Gunn make a TMNT film.

I'd like to see James Cameron directing another Alien film, and I'd like to see Spielberg/Peter Jackson finally getting around to making another Tintin film. It's been seven years for Christ's sake!
