  1. *leaves a slice of birthday cake*

  2. I will take command of the "enemy" defense, if none will offer. OTherwise, I will -GLEEFULLY- annhilate would be rescuers" with my mech.
  3. Send me this application, and I may yet deign to fill it out.
  4. Whores get payed...and sluts don't? I dunno.
  5. The Gepard M4 or any weapon from the Gepard series of anti-material weapons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gepard_anti-materiel_rifle http://www.sunblest.net/gun/Gepard.htm They were developed in Hungary, but my god are they nice.
  6. Please note, I'm only a layman when it comes to this sort of thing. But I am trying to remember my basic science, and expanding the concepts to fit this problem.:( My reasoning is that A would have both the shortest path (Which doesn't make a huge difference since it seems to be a very local circuit) and the least resistance due to being the only bulb on it. That was apparent. I felt that B would also be fairly bright, because it would receive the same amount of initial energy, but the following bulb would suffer because of that. I don't know if this would actually lower BOTH bulbs brightness, so I decided B would probably be brighter. D and E are on a parallel circuit, would draw the same amount of energy without progressively losing it, but still not be as bright as A or B due to distance (which I felt though maybe very small indeed, would still matter *shrug*) To me, this all indicates that C is the loser in the energy department. Also, is the circuit running right to left, or left to right? By the way, is this a direct or alternating current or does that even matter? I'm assuming tyhis is on a board a few feet across, rather than several miles in distance.

  8. "If I wanted my come back, I'd have wiped it off your lips." "At every point of your rant, just now, you have erected a fine foundation, if your objective was building a monument to idiocy." "Generally, when it comes to wits, I deign from attacking an unarmed opponent. However, today I am making a special exception just for you. En guarde." "Sorry. I was thinking about how nicely your head would fit on a pike, at a crossroads. But please, do not allow me to prevent you from possibly making this a reality." "If I could call your last comment a coherent response, every teacher of rhetoric to ever have lived would not only spin in their graves, but bore a hole through the surface of the earth." "Son, what is your major malfunction?" "...and thus you prove once again, that you'd pull your head out of your ass, if only you didn't' find it so warm and comfortable there." I have more.
  9. I found this article an interesting perspective. Perhaps slightly skewed by its presentation, but it tries not to be. It is easy enough for people to point the finger at the Ordo and go
  10. I agree. A more formal structure would help.
  11. Actually, NCO and Officer schools are in the works.
  12. Remember that many of the special ranks and higher ranks require the ability to handle administrative tasks, be a competent manager, devote enormous time and effort to the Ordo, and generally fulfill various leadership and even some combat abilities. Not only do many officers have to be a jack of all trades, they need to be able to master many of them, and then effectively communicate them to the group at large. This goes for Praetorian and other special ranks, as well.
  13. Indeed it is! I laughed hard, at first. Then I got worried. Poor Sarah Palin... being hunted by a shocked wolf
  14. Gunau wants to rear end me, I think. I'm scared. However. I think Kitsy DID get rear-ended at work once.
  15. ARYTE!? Wait. That's not Aryte. Nevermind!
  16. It was ROMAN. not GREEK. We're Ordo. not Spartaw.
  17. John Preston is a super cop killing machine. Furthermore... he's not stupid. Maybe a tad gullible, but not stupid.
  18. It's John Preston. He kills more people in a 2 hour movie, than Jack Bauer does. In fact, I think Equilibrium had one of the highest kill ratios in movie history... I'll need to check that. Click this. He kills 118 people.
  19. True, but the implication is that a Cleric First Class is a skilled marksman not only with pistols, but with rifles as well, and capable of utilizing one in close and long range combat from a variety of positions and stances, still using the gun-kata. And it's demonstrated in the movie, too. I'd say that Jack Bauer may have a slightly better chance at winning, at range, but still, given the extremely high level of skill that John Preston has, and the fact that with each yard he's closer to his target, his skills become more lethal, the chances of Jack Bauer winning the conflict are slim.
