I'd be suprised if there was at your age. You'll probably have a few gender confused people though.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Nothing "slightly" about it, Reliant. :P

Me, for one. Think about it. You've got men who are (steroids or not, though the industry is cleaning up) in amazing physical condition performing incredible physical feats. Fake or not, look up the video of a "shooting star press" or better yet, watch any Japanese or Mexican match. There's not a person on this forum who could come even remotely close to safely doing what they do, while making it look good. The choreography involved requires quite literally years of training.

Getting a new laptop... actually, I should say a laptop since it is my first one. Only $249.99. Its Linux based so I don't have to worry about Windows crazyness.

Can I ask what type? Is it a full blown laptop or one of those new mini notebooks that have suddenly started popping up?

I keep thinking about getting one of those Asus EEE thingys, not least because they look like the desktop terminals they have in TNG.

Yeah, I recommended one to my friend at work for his wife - she's at college and didn't want to be lugging a fullsize laptop about.

Devices like that might just help to realise the notion of a computer in every home, and to see them treated as just another appliance.


As for whats new in my life, nothing as yet - I'm awaiting the thunderstorm the weatherman promised me.
