[2001-05-30 15:52:00] - mig: hispanic-american heritage month is not just a normal month. it spans two months, from september 15 to october 15 - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:51:00] - I guess he works for the KKK :-o -paul

[2001-05-30 15:51:00] - no wait, that was the end and destruction of crazy nazi's ... :-p - dewey

[2001-05-30 15:51:00] - vinnie: I guess you're right then, so why do they even bother sticking the pacific in there? -paul

[2001-05-30 15:51:00] - dvd-drive? damn! what the hell do you do for your work?? - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:50:00] - we just had a holiday celebrating "white male" power on Monday - dewey

[2001-05-30 15:50:00] - dewey: I want your computer. Do I have permission to use your letter in my journal? -paul

[2001-05-30 15:49:00] - how can they expect me to be productive? ;)  - dewey

[2001-05-30 15:49:00] - and, btw, i believe you're wrong. on one website devoted to apa month, they list deepak chopra as a famous apa - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:49:00] - vinnie: gotcha -paul

[2001-05-30 15:48:00] - I like my new computer they gave me here at work.  It has a DVD drive and an infa-red mouse :) - dewey

[2001-05-30 15:47:00] - mig: I'm sure it would be easy enough to find out when it is -paul

[2001-05-30 15:47:00] - i meant asian/pacific islander, paul - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:47:00] - hooray for paul!  good journal.  I sent a letter, and I will probably be posting that letter to my journal, but look forward to reading yours! - dewey

[2001-05-30 15:46:00] - vinnie: Even pacific islander excludes India, doesn't it? -paul

[2001-05-30 15:44:00] - paul: hmmm, you're probably right. i assumed it was short for asian pacific islander, but it could be referring to asian countries bordering the pacific - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:44:00] - i guess i'm the only one who would celebrate hispanic month, or whatever it's called ... except i don't because i don't know what month it is. - mig

[2001-05-30 15:44:00] - vinnie: Fine fine, there's nothing more invigorating then pointing out the shortcomings of others, is there? :-) -paul

[2001-05-30 15:43:00] - paul: hmmm, you

[2001-05-30 15:41:00] - vinnie: You and Aparna don't count, it's asian pacific heritage month. India is asian indian (as in the ocean) heritage month -paul

[2001-05-30 15:40:00] - and i'm pretty sure if someone came up with the idea, it would be shot down as "racist". - mig

[2001-05-30 15:40:00] - so your statement was wrooong - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:39:00] - paul: mig is right. there is no month for white american heritage, i would guess - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:39:00] - mig: Better yet, a "white male" month ;-) -paul

[2001-05-30 15:38:00] - dave: yeah! you, aparna, and i need to celebrate! :P - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:37:00] - aba: Shush you, I am trying to keep up on the message board, respond to two letters and start on the next article. Besides, 'n' and 'c' are close on the keyboard... :-) -paul

[2001-05-30 15:37:00] - gee, i wonder what a ruckus there would be if someone declared a "white history" month? - mig

[2001-05-30 15:37:00] - hurray! we have a month! lol -dave

[2001-05-30 15:35:00] - atlactic, eh?  ;)  -  aba

[2001-05-30 15:31:00] - vinnie: there is a month for everything. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a north/south/east/west/atlactic/pacific mongolian sheep farmer month -paul

[2001-05-30 15:27:00] - i didn't even know there was an asian/pacific american month, but apparently it's may - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:27:00] - and actually i think wizards own virtually all the gaming systems.  i know they own, pokemon, d&d, magic, star wars(the games, not the franchise), among others. - mig

[2001-05-30 15:26:00] - i hope so.  it would help in enlarging my D&D library. - mig

[2001-05-30 15:24:00] - http://discuss.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/zforum/01/entertainment_takei0530.htm

[2001-05-30 15:23:00] - paul: i totally agree. the californians largely dug their own grave - vinnie

[2001-05-30 15:22:00] - aba: The company that makes Magic: The Gathering (the card game). They've opened up a chain of stores that sells all sorts of games, it's a cool place. -paul

[2001-05-30 15:21:00] - mig: Sweet, that looks like a nice store to work in. Do you get employee discounts? :-) -paul

[2001-05-30 15:17:00] - what is wizards of the coast?  -  aba

[2001-05-30 15:13:00] - whoo! looks like wizards of the coast at springfield is hiring! - mig

[2001-05-30 15:08:00] - http://www.somethingawful.com/cliff/ihateyou/    ihateyou has finally been updated.  -  aba

[2001-05-30 15:07:00] - What I think is funny, is that the people there are demanding price caps (for cheaper power), no more new power plants (environmental concerns) and more power (since they have a shortage) -paul

[2001-05-30 15:06:00] - and somehow during this whole mess, they decided to blame "deregulation", which as far as I can tell, the california government was doing quite the opposite of deregulation -paul

[2001-05-30 15:05:00] - They then wouldn't let the power companies build more power plants because of environmental concerns. I don't know why they were shocked when power companies started going bankrupt and they started having power shortages -paul

[2001-05-30 15:04:00] - As far as I can tell, the california government mandated that all power companies had to sell power at a certain price which was cheaper then it cost to produce it. -paul

[2001-05-30 14:58:00] - mig: If you want to know what is going on, I suggest you ignore the media. They like to blame deregulation for the mess when in fact, it's just the opposite -paul

[2001-05-30 14:43:00] - At least there's a workaround, more than I can say for most netscape bugs I have encountered. - aaron

[2001-05-30 14:43:00] - i am working on a javascript thing for a registration website and ie doesn't like the reserved keyword called "undefined."  it is just ie being stupid.  ~a

[2001-05-30 14:29:00] - i never really understood what was going on in california.  all i know is that it's confusing. - mig

[2001-05-30 14:19:00] - does anyone know offhand where i could find an RS232 to RS422 converter? preferably in a pcmcia card -dave

[2001-05-30 14:18:00] - adrian: haha, how on earth did you get that error? -dave

[2001-05-30 14:18:00] - http://www.washingtontimes.com/national/20010530-773328.htm Holy shit, Bush said something intelligent (in regards to the first paragraph) -paul

[2001-05-30 14:16:00] - 'undefined' is undefined  :-P  ~a

[2001-05-30 14:15:00] - ###/pics/download/22.gif  ~a

[2001-05-30 14:09:00] - with most extreme feminists, yes - vinnie

[2001-05-30 14:07:00] - dave: I would take that a step further. I think the extreme feminists are trying to solve real problems by hurting men while still ignoring the areas where they have the advantage -paul

[2001-05-30 14:04:00] - dave: that's my problem with the extreme feminists as well - vinnie

[2001-05-30 14:03:00] - and i think the feminist movement tries to solve one end without dealing with the other. well, that's not exactly what it's trying to do, but you get my point -dave

[2001-05-30 14:02:00] - vinnie: Sorry, I don't think they make it possible. They give you very elaborate instructions on how to download it though. -paul

[2001-05-30 14:01:00] - like women had to stay home and cook etc, but they also got the perogative to smack their husband whenever they wanted -dave

[2001-05-30 14:00:00] - in part, i think that all the little things like that which benefit women were put in place because women also got the bad side of things as well. -dave

[2001-05-30 14:00:00] - here's a weird one though a little offtopic: i hear of women driven to lesbianism because of their hatred of males, but no men driven to homosexuality because of their hatred of women :) - vinnie

[2001-05-30 14:00:00] - if you have i.e. than you should be able to.  but personally i really hate their adobe acrobat plug-in. - mig

[2001-05-30 14:00:00] - mig: I agree whole-heartedly. A lot of militant feminists have turned feminism into a huge male-bashing organization to the point where it has become politically correct -paul

[2001-05-30 13:59:00] - paul: do I really have to download it? I want to view it in my browser :) - vinnie

[2001-05-30 13:59:00] - mig: very true -dave

[2001-05-30 13:59:00] - mig: very true

[2001-05-30 13:54:00] - another thing i've noticed.  it also seems accepted in this society for women to declare that they hate men.  however if a man proclaims that he hates women, he is somehow an evil person. - mig

[2001-05-30 13:54:00] - I urge you to get through the whole thing if you are going to read it though, because it does tend to drag at points but there are some relly good points made in it -paul

[2001-05-30 13:54:00] - paul: i dunno if i would go so far as to say guys get the rough end of the deal. i just think women get it better -dave

[2001-05-30 13:52:00] - vinnie: yeah, that sounds much better -dave

[2001-05-30 13:52:00] - It's a short little booklet that makes some really good points about society being against men (although I don't agree with everything he says) -paul

[2001-05-30 13:51:00] - probably masculism, or masculinism - vinnie

[2001-05-30 13:51:00] - If you guys are bored enough, go check out http://www.rulymob.com and download the pdf file there -paul

[2001-05-30 13:50:00] - somehow starting a chauvinist movement doesn't sound right, lol -dave

[2001-05-30 13:50:00] - dave: The closest you can get is "men's liberation" I think. -paul

[2001-05-30 13:49:00] - malinism? -dave

[2001-05-30 13:49:00] - mig: Exactly, feminists always like to proclaim how there is this patriarchy oppressing them when in reality, society gives women a lot more rights then they give men -paul

[2001-05-30 13:49:00] - feminists like to call it chuvenism(i know it's misspelled.) - mig

[2001-05-30 13:49:00] - what would the male equivalent of feminism be? malism? -dave

[2001-05-30 13:44:00] - I think society has basically beaten it into men (no pun intended) that hitting a female is wrong. It's been that way for over 100 years. On the other hand, society seems to applaud it when females hit men because that's the way it is -paul

[2001-05-30 13:43:00] - physical = physically

[2001-05-30 13:43:00] - i would think that more important issue in domestic violence, is that it is far more acceptable for women to physical abuse men, while the other way around is not. - mig

[2001-05-30 13:40:00] - dave: *Shrug* I always thought it made a lot of sense, for some reason I always saw women as being more violent and aggressive then men... -paul

[2001-05-30 13:33:00] - your point -dave

[2001-05-30 13:33:00] - paul: i thought that your point about women abusing men more than men abusing women was very interesting. at first i was a little incredulous, but aparna showed me a quote that corroborated you point -dave

[2001-05-30 13:18:00] - Ok, I guess it's kind of pointless to keep it a secret who is sending me emails huh? Tell you what, let me know in your emails if you want me to keep you anonymous and if you don't want me to post the letter in my journal. -paul

[2001-05-30 13:11:00] - you can post my response if you really want, but don't feel obliged to post it - vinnie

[2001-05-30 13:11:00] - paul: hehe, it's not as if anyone who is going to read your journal doesn't know that the letter was from aparna -dave

[2001-05-30 13:10:00] - mig: good luck with the job -dave

[2001-05-30 12:45:00] - Oh! To those people who have sent me emails (first of all, thanks. I love getting feedback and answering questions): Please let me know if I can post your email in my journal or if you would rather receive a private email back with my answers -paul

[2001-05-30 12:28:00] - aba: "Raving lunatic" coming from you I'll take that as a compliment. ;-) -paul

[2001-05-30 12:19:00] - time to break out the phone book! - mig

[2001-05-30 12:18:00] - ugh.. potomac mills is wayyyyyy too far.  however, i will try the other ebs around the area. - mig

[2001-05-30 12:13:00] - you can put my name on your page if you want to.  :)  -  aba

[2001-05-30 12:12:00] - i sent you another email.  -  aba

[2001-05-30 12:12:00] - raving lunatic.  :)  -  aba

[2001-05-30 12:01:00] - mig: Indeed, The EB at Potomac Mills. I was shopping in there and some kids came in and asked if they were hiring. The employee said they were always looking for people to hire and gave them forms to fill out -paul

[2001-05-30 12:00:00] - a: I'm funny looking? :'( -paul

[2001-05-30 11:59:00] - oh and paul:  aparna said that you said that there was an EB that was looking for people to hire, do you remember which one it was? - mig

[2001-05-30 11:56:00] - new lengthy entry up if you all care. more libretarian propaganda for you. - mig

[2001-05-30 11:29:00] - you can ftp to any of the following.  it doesn't really matter which.  they are all the same.  24.168.211.95, aporter.dhs.org, vserver.dhs.org, pessen.dhs.org, boing.dhs.org, paulisfunnylooking.aporter.dhs.org  (etc etc)  ~a

[2001-05-30 11:21:00] - paul: according to pricewatch, you can get a kyro 2 for around $130 shipping included. not bad considering it beat out a Geforce 2 Ultra in a few tests. -dave

[2001-05-30 11:18:00] - is it really called a "hate filter" that's pretty funny -dave

[2001-05-30 11:16:00] - The page was in german, perhaps that confused the hate filter - aaron

[2001-05-30 11:14:00] - how could you filter anything other than specific words? -dave

[2001-05-30 11:09:00] - vinnie: There's a lot of hate in my journal :-) -paul

[2001-05-30 11:07:00] - http://www.usatoday.com/hphoto.htm

[2001-05-30 11:05:00] - aaron: i would guess the hate filter screens for bad words or something. or maybe like paul said, if your page has too much hatred :) - vinnie

[2001-05-30 10:44:00] - There, now I actually answer that damn question that I posed but never answered -paul

[2001-05-30 10:42:00] - aaron: It's my journal isn't it? :-) -paul

[2001-05-30 10:41:00] - dammit, I need to edit something in that entry, sorry -paul

[2001-05-30 10:36:00] - hmm, saic has a "hate filter"? which is keeping me from viewing somebody's journal online. Strange. I'll see what it is when I get home I guess - aaron

[2001-05-30 10:32:00] - 30 eh? well i'll have to keep that in mind when i get that +20 to all skills ring, lol -dave

[2001-05-30 10:28:00] - http://www.vix.com/menmag/paglsomm.htm

[2001-05-30 10:20:00] - dave: All right, I'll take a look at it -paul

[2001-05-30 10:19:00] - you can't have a base skill greater than 20.  you can have bonuses but hte cap for that is 30. - mig

[2001-05-30 10:18:00] - New journal entry up if you all are bored -paul

[2001-05-30 10:10:00] - paul: here's the guide i'm reading. it's very good and thorough as well http://d2source.com/guide/ -dave

[2001-05-30 10:03:00] - dave: Really? I didn't know that. That's useful infromation -paul

[2001-05-30 09:58:00] - paul: did you know that multiple "fastest hit recovery" or "fastest cast rate" items can stack their bonuses? -dave

[2001-05-30 09:57:00] - mostly coherent i would say -dave

[2001-05-30 09:49:00] - I have a question to ask you guys, I'm hoping I come across as logical sounding in my journal entries but I can't tell. Do I sound like a raving lunatic or am I mostly coherent? -paul

[2001-05-30 09:38:00] - dave: I think you can raise a skill higher then 20 actually.... -paul

[2001-05-30 09:27:00] - paul: and is it true that you cannot raise a skill beyond a base of 20? -dave

[2001-05-30 09:27:00] - paul: i was reading some d2 info on the sorceress, and one of the reasons we may have had problems with frozen orb, is that you have to aim it to the side of a char if you want to hit it -dave

[2001-05-30 09:25:00] - paul: i would write you a letter responding to your journal, but most everything i would say you said. if you want more feedback from me, pick something that i disagree with you on = ) -dave

[2001-05-30 09:24:00] - vinnie: nope. sound plays ok -dave

[2001-05-30 09:12:00] - and you're not having any problems with sound, i take it? - vinnie

[2001-05-30 09:12:00] - paul: here's a link for kyro 2 http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1435 -dave

[2001-05-30 09:11:00] - paul: hercules / guillemot sells the card. called the 3d prophet 4500 -dave

[2001-05-30 09:06:00] - same size as the vcd files -dave

[2001-05-30 09:06:00] - vinnie: yeah, i couldn't get it to work. although i'm still not totally clear on the divx thing. because i think divx is in part what allows vcd's to get their mediocre quality. and the mpeg files i'm getting are almost exactly the same size as -dave

[2001-05-30 09:05:00] - dave: I haven't read anything at all about the Kyro 2, I don't even know what company is releasing it. Is it ATI? -paul

[2001-05-30 09:04:00] - vinnie: yeah, as far as i can tell -dave

[2001-05-30 09:04:00] - sucks that you can't convert to divx though - vinnie

[2001-05-30 09:03:00] - dave: cool. same quality? - vinnie

[2001-05-30 09:00:00] - vinnie: i've been converting kenshin vcd's to mpeg files. i think i might be able to fit them onto cd's with the same episode to cd ratio as the vcd's -dave

[2001-05-30 08:59:00] - paul: so what do you think of the kyro 2? -dave

[2001-05-30 08:54:00] - dave: I don't think it's necessarily faster (although it might be) but I think the big thing is it takes the load off the cpu so the cpu can do more important things like calculation for physics and stuff -paul

[2001-05-30 08:53:00] - vinnie: thanks -paul

[2001-05-30 08:53:00] - thx for the reminder -dave

[2001-05-30 08:52:00] - oooooo, journal entry. must read -dave

[2001-05-30 08:52:00] - is T&L processing really much faster when it's done on the video card as opposed to the CPU? -dave

[2001-05-30 08:51:00] - paul: 24.168.211.95 - vinnie

[2001-05-30 08:51:00] - dave: Yes, please do. I need another letter to respond to rather then write up new stuff :-) -paul

[2001-05-30 08:50:00] - vinnie: Ok, thanks. I guess I can find out his IP. Not too important right now, it's just that I wanted to ftp an html doc for people to view -paul

[2001-05-30 08:50:00] - dave: write a response to paul's journal entry if you want something to do - vinnie

[2001-05-30 08:49:00] - i hate it when there's no work to do = (  -dave

[2001-05-30 08:47:00] - which I don't know, honestly. it starts with 24 - vinnie

[2001-05-30 08:47:00] - paul: just his ip - vinnie

[2001-05-30 08:18:00] - a: But what am I suppose to ftp to? vserver.dhs.org? -paul

[2001-05-30 07:27:00] - by the way, that zip file is only 0.04 mb so you can download it from work.  ~a

[2001-05-30 00:31:00] - alternatives - cuteftp (http://www.globalscape.com/download/index.shtml) or wsftp (comes on the virginia tech cd) ~a

[2001-05-30 00:22:00] - paul:  @@@/ftp.zip  ~a

[2001-05-30 00:20:00] - http://www.gnu.org/press/2001-05-04-GPL.html - mig

[2001-05-29 23:46:00] - Mmmmm..... webcast of orgy.... :-) -paul

[2001-05-29 23:31:00] - just to clarify to the sick folks out there.  it's orgy the band - mig

[2001-05-29 23:31:00] - http://www.hob.com/live/concerts/010308orgy/ webcast of orgy playing.  pretty good. - mig

[2001-05-29 17:50:00] - http://www.linuxuser.co.uk/articles/issue11/lu11-microsoft_gov_ok.pdf

[2001-05-29 17:42:00] - http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/19239.html would be quite irritating if that happened here. - mig

[2001-05-29 17:29:00] - Ok. On an unrelated note, does anybody know how to ftp to vserver so I can put a page on my web-site? -paul

[2001-05-29 17:27:00] - http://www.brunching.com/ratings/crackers.html

[2001-05-29 17:26:00] - yesr.  should probably get there around 7:20 to buy tickets and meet.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 17:17:00] - So we're meeting at the Lee Highway Multiplex to see Shrek at 7:30? -paul

[2001-05-29 17:16:00] - http://washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A91906-2001May29.html

[2001-05-29 16:09:00] - Well, I have to go home now... I'll make sure to check the message board when I get back to see what you guys all settle on. Goodbye everyone -paul

[2001-05-29 16:08:00] - i have no clue.  >:o  i wish he was responding to email or posting on the board today.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 16:07:00] - aba: Do you think he might not be able to make a 7:30 showing? We could make it 8:00 then... -paul

[2001-05-29 16:07:00] - nope.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 16:07:00] - aba: don't know his number? - vinnie

[2001-05-29 16:06:00] - i wish there was a sure fire way to get in touch with adrian at work.  :(  -  aba

[2001-05-29 16:04:00] - 7:30 sound good to everyone? -paul

[2001-05-29 16:03:00] - 7:30 is good for me too. what say everyone else? - vinnie

[2001-05-29 16:03:00] - either that or the 8  -  aba

[2001-05-29 16:03:00] - aba: Thanks for the link, so when would be a good time for Vinnie and Adrian? -paul

[2001-05-29 16:02:00] - i say we go for the 7:30 show  -  aba

[2001-05-29 16:02:00] - http://www.movietickets.com/house_detail.asp?house_id=1281&exid=nai  -  aba

[2001-05-29 16:01:00] - http://www.nationalamusements.com/locationsus.asp?location=va  -  aba

[2001-05-29 15:59:00] - preferably after 6:45 though. i need to get a haircut and eat dinner, and make it through rush hour traffic - vinnie

[2001-05-29 15:58:00] - and if you decide on a time fast enough, i can go also - vinnie

[2001-05-29 15:58:00] - paul: i believe it's national amusements - vinnie

[2001-05-29 15:55:00] - well, actually, if you make it later, adrian might be able to see the movie too.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 15:47:00] - mig: I know, but is it national cinemas or general cinemas or Hoyts or what? -paul

[2001-05-29 15:46:00] - vinnie: hehe, yeah, i was actually going to post a message saying something like that too = )  -dave

[2001-05-29 15:45:00] - multiplex. - mig

[2001-05-29 15:15:00] - Ok then, merrifield it is. Does anybody know what kind of theater it is there? -paul

[2001-05-29 15:07:00] - Merrifield or Worldgate is good - aaron

[2001-05-29 14:57:00] - i'd prefer merrifield, but as long as the theater isn't too far away i don't mind. - mig

[2001-05-29 14:44:00] - mig_and_aaron: What theater is good for you two? -paul

[2001-05-29 14:44:00] - dave: purple links! :) - vinnie

[2001-05-29 14:37:00] - 6:45 is good for me, we just need to agree on a theatre. (I spelled it funny so that I get to add a word to the dictionary) - aaron

[2001-05-29 14:29:00] - does anyone have a copy of pcanywhere i could try out? -dave

[2001-05-29 14:25:00] - aba: 6:45? -paul

[2001-05-29 14:23:00] - Tonight is goooood - aaron

[2001-05-29 14:22:00] - haha.  go paul.  i have to go finish up some stuff so i'll talk to you all later.  if you decide about the movie, just email me.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 14:19:00] - aba: I've already written four paragraphs for the first paragraph of your email :-) -paul

[2001-05-29 14:16:00] - what time?  -  aba

[2001-05-29 14:16:00] - aba and aaron: Is tonight good for you two? -paul

[2001-05-29 14:10:00] - I want to go see Shrek this week. Tomorrow 6-7 pm I am busy but other than that, any time this week after work is fine - aaron

[2001-05-29 14:08:00] - Arg netscape, why can't it handle div tags with borders? I really hate netscape - aaron

[2001-05-29 13:59:00] - frankly, i think most sects don't care ultimately as long as you give them money. - mig

[2001-05-29 13:48:00] - argh.  my email.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 13:47:00] - and now i'm kind of scared as to what paul is going to do with me email.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 13:47:00] - anytime in the evening is fine with me as long as you tell me in advance.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 13:39:00] - i dunno if i can name any as famous as billy graham -dave

[2001-05-29 13:38:00] - James Dobson (head of Focus on the Family) -dave

[2001-05-29 13:37:00] - paul: modern day christians? -dave

[2001-05-29 13:31:00] - dave: Billy Graham is famous televangelist right? Can you gimme some other famous christians like that? -paul

[2001-05-29 12:59:00] - paul: ok, i look forward to reading it -dave

[2001-05-29 12:59:00] - dave: Ok, thanks. I think that'll work for my analogy -paul

[2001-05-29 12:58:00] - believing that you are a sinner and trusting in jesus for forgiveness of those sins etc etc is the essential part. i don't think you can say a christian has to do anything else -dave

[2001-05-29 12:58:00] - dave: Ok, that'll do. And I am going to post her letter in my next journal entry if you want to see what I was wrong about :-) -paul

[2001-05-29 12:56:00] - paul: it's just like daily devotions or prayer. should christians have daily devotions etc? yes they should. do i think you can be a christian without doing those? yes -dave

[2001-05-29 12:55:00] - paul: most people believe that if you are a christian, you should go to church. it's not a necessity though -dave

[2001-05-29 12:53:00] - aba: what points, if any, did you think were not valid in paul's little writing on the wage thing? -dave

[2001-05-29 12:52:00] - I mean, I know belief in Jesus is what really counts but a real christian is suppose to go to church every week, right? -paul

[2001-05-29 12:51:00] - dave: really? I thought in order to be a good upstanding christian you were suppose to go to church -paul

[2001-05-29 12:51:00] - but just because they don't go to church does not mean that they are not a christian -dave

[2001-05-29 12:50:00] - however, if someone claims to be a christian and does not go to church, i would want to know why -dave

[2001-05-29 12:50:00] - mig: Ok, so basically most sects of christianity want people to come every week, is that a good assumption? -paul

[2001-05-29 12:50:00] - there is no requirement per se that requires a christian to go to church -dave

[2001-05-29 12:42:00] - like i know catholism considers it a moral sin to not attend church, but i think it's different for each different division of chrisitianity.  i think they all frown upon not going though. - mig

[2001-05-29 12:42:00] - i think the ramifications are different for each church division i think - mig

[2001-05-29 12:38:00] - dave: Is it a safe assumption to say that all christians are required to go to church every week? -paul

[2001-05-29 12:21:00] - name the time and place, and it should be ok for me. - mig

[2001-05-29 12:20:00] - mig and aba: So far you two are the only people interested in going, when is a good day and time for you guys? -paul

[2001-05-29 12:03:00] - sure.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 12:02:00] - I posted this before but I think it got lost in the early morning shuffle, does anybody want to see Shrek tonight or sometime this week? -paul

[2001-05-29 11:54:00] - uh oh... -paul

[2001-05-29 11:47:00] - i think i remember a teacher telling the class about it but i never saw it in the paper. - img

[2001-05-29 11:46:00] - and actually the guy ran up to me and then took my shoe off.  - mig

[2001-05-29 11:46:00] - paul, i sent you a rather lengthy email to your vt account.  -  aba

[2001-05-29 11:45:00] - i guess i'm not the only one who hates the beastie boys. - mig

[2001-05-29 11:45:00] - and almost everyone left after staind finished(i did too), which was pathetic, since there was one more act playing. - mig

[2001-05-29 11:44:00] - yeah i know, i didn't think that was cool of them.  if weezer was coming they should have played for everyone. - mig

[2001-05-29 11:44:00] - i'm surprised i never heard about it though, considering all the press it had received - vinnie

[2001-05-29 11:43:00] - that guy's best buy story is interesting, but it's not finished! I need closure :) - vinnie

[2001-05-29 11:39:00] - Other than that, though, how was the hfstival? I heard weezer was actually playing in some nearby private concert or something, that sucks - aaron

[2001-05-29 11:36:00] - Anybody know why Netscape has to redownload the message board page every time you resize the window? That seems really weird - aaron

[2001-05-29 11:35:00] - Alex Barrie says, "maybe it's because you kicked him in the head. you shouldn't wear shoes when crowd surfing" - aaron

[2001-05-29 11:27:00] - i lost my shoe when i was crowd surfing and some asshole just took it off my foot and then threw it into the crowd.  what a dickhead. - mig

[2001-05-29 11:27:00] - That guy's story also is a good example of how to use style sheets instead of tables, for organizing images and text together, something which I need to start doing for my journal entries - aaron

[2001-05-29 11:01:00] - paul: anime fest is this coming weekend? -dave

[2001-05-29 10:59:00] - aaron: I remember hearing about that story (although some of the details were different) from somebody before. I think it's interesting that he is a member of the green party :-) -paul
