Is Hi Moisture cojack as crazy foolproof as American Cheese?
I admit to never having used it.

BTW, Velveeta is not cheese, and you can just melt it with no worries. Bechamel is great for making cheese sauce out of cheeses that tend to seperate and become oily (like Cheddar). it's also a great way to use up WAY LESS cheese than you really need. A simpler mac and cheese is 2 tablespoons of mil...

Scouring for Pork Shoulder Butt on sale (assuming you own a freezer, and an oven) is also a good deal. Most shoulders are 10lbs, and cost about 1.99 when on sale. You slow cook it over night, you shred it, and you freeze it in little baggies. It's hard to beat meat for 1.99 a lb. But it does have so...

You're wrong about the Roman inquisition. The Roman inquisition tried some 62,000 people and executed some 1450. The Medieval Inquisition is the inquisition that ran from the 1100's all the way to the 1400's. The Cathars, the Waldensians in particular. Joan of Arc was executed by one of the Medieval...

Tzor, did you not study any of the European Religious Wars? I had family enprisoned, executed, and burned at the stake. Because they were Hugenots, instead of Catholics. The FUCKING Inquisition. Never heard of it? Medeival, Spanish, Roman flavors. The French Religious Wars saw anywhere from 2 millio...

ID is not the history of science. That's complete crap. That would be like teaching The Greek creation myth as "the history of science". It's rediculous. ID does not belong in science. ID doesn't thread the two. It's a freaking Christian Creation myth fixed with a search and replace functi...

No it doesn't. Filing the serial numbers off of your religious teachings doesn't make them secular. It makes them slightly watered down, but they are still religious teachings. Ah, I see. Let's ban mythology too then, because by your standards they're not secular either. The serial numbers aren't e...

Intelligent design really doesn't explain the Platypus.
I'm not sure what does, but Intelligent design definitely doesn't.
Besides, Maybe Galactus create the universe, and there is no God.

It could also be it's hard to regulate a country that tells you to fuck off and has nuclear weapons

Shy of Obama's Death Squads in power.. so that means they're completely toothless and ineffective?

Uh? wow. the folder is locked to people who don't have a valid dumpshock account? I honestly had no idea. I'll talk to grinder about opening it up. (not that he's been answering any of my pm's lately) It's not a giant fuck-you to you at all(at least not from me). I honestly didn't know that's how th...

We're still working on it Frank

Honestly not sure what happened to Hermit, he seems to have vanished.

What about Microtrading? using super computers to buy stock at X and sell it at X+0.01 by the millions of shares in the space of a second.

Is that cool? Or is that a skimming scheme.

They're not. Unions have their leaders assassinated. They have the picket lines broken up by thugs who put people in the hospital and morgue. People are so quick to go "Unions are the root of all Evil" That they forget WHY Unions were formed in the first place. They forget how much WORSE t...

You actually think that getting rid of Social Security, Medicare, All Government agencies not related to national defense, stopping all foreign aid, and basically getting rid of the Federal Government, would be a good thing for America?

You might actually be crazier than Tzor and PhoneLobster.

PR, I'm going to assume that's Sarcasm. Because, if it's not you need to get some serious psychiatric help. The only thing worse for this country that Palin, would be Ron Paul. Making the US an Isolationist Libertarian nightmare would help noone except the rich.

ah yeah, I was multiclassing.
1/2 hitdie from each class, but all the spellpoints (yes we were using the broken magic point system).

You know I played for years, and I'm stil not sure what the difference betwee Multiclass and Dual class is? I gain exp, which I split between the two classes, and they both go up simultaneously. Which one is that. Maybe my DM just made shit up, I'm not a 100% sure. But I started as a Level 1 Cleric/...

I was in a PVP guild in WoW that used that as their battle cry when they rolled and ganked people. "We're from the Government, and we're here to help." Course, if a CORPORATION, said "We're here to help" I'd be looking for the toxic chemicals and daggers in my back. Government sc...

I often played a variation on the cleric/wizard dual class. It hurts for the first couple of levels, but honestly, you can be 3/3 by the time the others are 4, and if the game lasts long enough you can be 9/9 by the time they make 10th.

A starting character werewolf would wipe the floor with even an experienced combat vampire. RAGE > Disciplines That being said MAGE = WIN! I mean, the Magic system in mage is.. "Yes, yes you can do that." None of those systems were balanced against each other /at all/ and mixed games were ...

We used the 4d6 rule, rearrange. But if someone wanted to play a class with stat minimums but did not make them, they could place their highest rolls into those stats and have them go to the minimum. So, if you rolled a crappy character whose best stat was a 12, you could still play a paladin. With ...

This is why when my Pediatrician gave my kids fluoride vitamins, I told him to go to hell and never game them to my kid.

My Favorite OP 2nd Edition character:
A Wizard/Cleric of Magic dual class.

Twice the Spells, TWice the Utility, all the Fun.

Could have been worse. He could have been in an Anita Blake Novel.
