How did that work if you didn't go to sleep? If when you sleep you died, then its the end of your world. How were they sure it was the end of the whole world? :)

Don't harsh my vibe, man! I'm trying to have my mind blown by the whole mellow end of the world thing.

//time passes//

Whoa.

That collection also featured a story in which a pair of way-too-smart kids locked their parents in a virtual reality room full of lions. The lions turned out to be real figments of the kids' imaginations, and ate them. ;)

"Kids, those lion dreams are getting kind of creepy. We're shutting down the virtual reality room for a while."
Cold stare -- "I wouldn't do that, father."
YIKES!
:D
I *LOVE* that book. It made a huge impression on me when I read it. I'd still put it on a "you can only have 10 books" list.

In a way, it was sort of an extreme foreshadowing of hardcore video game culture.

Can't sleep.. All I want is sleep.. Wondering if I should take NyQuil even though I'm on antibiotics.

Good Morning Lodge.

I think I'm getting paranoid about spam. I got an e-mailed Christmas card from some alleged company whose name I didn't recognize. I googled the company and realized from the address and description that I know an attorney who works there. I guess it was for real as I'm sure he has my e-mail on his mailing list. Looked phony to me though.

Nothing wrong with a healthy skepticism, my friend.

I got an email from "Facebook" this week saying "Click here to see 4 message you've missed on Facebook." All the colors were right, all the fonts were right. But when you moused over the "Go To Facebook" link, you could see it would take you to some weird, long, garbled (and non-Facebook) web address. Nice try, fellas, but you'll have to do better than that!

Good morning, Lodge! Just pulled a batch of chocolate chip cookies from the oven!

You effed up. Sorta. The bad news is that the blizzard (that you put in a word for) is going south and will miss the target by a couple hundred miles. The good news is that little gII is coming down with a nasty cold and because of that we might have to stay home.......Not sure what you requested to the big guy but it might work out in the end.

Either that or you have one sick sense of humor. No pun intended. :):p;):D

If video games make you kill people, I'm applying for CEO of Alaska Airlines and citing my Pocket Planes experience.

Can't speak for the others, but I really just don't have much to say. :p

I've heard that flight simulator software got so good (even before recent years) that people with experience playing them can land the plane in at least one case

The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.
