Useless Information

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Useless Information

Here's a completely uselesss piece of information for you; the "Man who invented CTRL-ALT-DELETE" is retiring. I have seen this on more than one site, and I am curious at to why it is such big news. What do you think about this fascinating development?

The man who made it possible to escape a frozen screen, is escaping himself. We owe him so much for saving us from pushing the reset button everytime. Hasta lavista compadra.

I bet you he's got a tidy retirement package to, betcha IBM were paying him a crapload of money. I'll be stoked if I can finish work at 55.

Gotta love this line though.

speaking of usless info, one of the moons of saturn, triton i think it is, has enough natural gas, both in the atmosphere and in liquid form to last us 50 million years, and if you put on a pair of wings, you could go flying.

Liquid gas on Triton? too far and conventional. Our very own moon has an abundance of Helium-3 (although we still need fusion technology to fully utilize it).

@Mustang

LOL. I like that too. I could just imagine Gates having a quiet cow about it. After all, its NOT MS code. He doesn't own it and yet his OSes depended on it.

PS: Hey Taw, is this what you mean by looking good in a skirt?

were your heart exposed, it'd pump blood 7ft into the air.

If you lined up you nerves, it would go all the way around the world. Your intestines unraveled would go quite aways as well.
