Well I hate, despise, and am terrified by the dark(unless I was a spy or spec. ops. guy but that probably won't happen). But I'm interested in the phenomenons that happen or people experience. The strange stories and stuff act like a magnet towards me. I know I shouldn't read them, my brain just says YOU IDIOT DON'T READ THAT CR*P, but I'm just like "ehhh what the hell, why not?". Then I realize "Oh right, it will scare the the bloody hell outta me". Then I usually cower in fear in my pillow bunker I made in my bed to hide from the dark until I fall asleep

We go for victory!

Indy - "Nova Dworkia"? What (and where) the hell is that? Are you making up things again?

Loc - I like lurking in the shadows (sometimes). It's good fun to skulk!

Rec - That's ok. No, I haven't been found to have anything wrong (yet), but my father died from a heart attack, and he had angina. He also had some problems with his arteries that could have been passed down to us (my two brothers and I). "Marfan's Syndrome"? That's one I have never heard of. What's that?

You know I used to have a program called Brainwave Generator and you would listen to it and if you were to close your eyes. Put your headphones on it would induce an out-of-body experience. It was very difficult to do and it took about a half hour per session but strangely it did work. I stopped before I had an actual OOBE but i did get pretty far into it. Something I dun wanna talk about

@Taw
U are right m8. Even though it might sound "interesting" to other people, there are as far as many that will think differently about it (thinking u have lost it). So I apologies about my above post, I did not want to cause any inconvenience by it....it was written by a half sleeping tired teenager that could not think at that point....it was bad from my side

@Esq, Marfan's syndrome is a genetic disorder that makes people unusually tall, very "spidery" in appearance, with long skinny fingers and toes. The joints are really weak too, since the disorder basically affects connecting tissues. Unfortunately in about 90% of cases the sufferer has a heart defect too. In about 60% of cases there's some sort of problem with the retinas too.
I had a friend with Marfan's, when we were kids he was just fairly tall like me, but when he hit puberty he shot through the roof. I wouldn't be surprised if he's as tall if not taller than you Esq! I haven't seen him in a long time so I don't know whether he has been lucky and escaped without heart defects.

Actually Rec, that disorder sounds familiar. I wonder where I heard it? I read so much that it's hard to tell .

Post Sat Apr 24, 2004 4:27 am

Klinefelter's has got all sorts of wierd problems with sexual hormones and mental retardation, Marfan's has none of that since, as I said before, it affects the connective tissues, Klinefelter's is to do with people born with extra sex chromosomes eg XXY and occasionally even worse combinations (XXXY!?). Also Klinefelter's tends not to run in families as it renders the sufferer sterile.
Wow, I'm starting to sound like a doctor with my recent spate of posts

You sound more like a mathematician obsessed with algebra to me!

Maybe Recusant's the psycologist, not Sir Spectre .........

Post Wed May 05, 2004 10:34 am

Well now I can continue the topic (dont give too much **** about me PC as it is )

@Recusant

90% heart defect? 60% problem with retinas? thats over 100%. Is that a mistake in calculation or some of them got both defects...poor souls

BTW can some one check this for me? I do not have MS works right now

1. open MS word
2. type "NYC" in uppercase letters
3. change the font size to 72
4. change the font to webdings
5. change the font to wingdings

Apparently "q33ny" - supposed to be the flight number of one of the crashed planes - gives an aeroplane, two buildings, a skull and crossbones and the star of david. Again, no comment, although whether this is in fact the number of one of the planes seems unlikely.

I've heard a few people suggesting that this is a sign that Microsoft were involved in the terrorist attack.

Lol it had it on the bottom . here is the link . Is very interesting...MS is in middle of it again

whooppe do, this one was floating arround since 9/11 died shortly after

Post Wed May 05, 2004 10:49 am

Well first time to see it ...what about this one?

Satans face:

Post Wed May 05, 2004 10:51 am

It is part of the fonts, not MS, as Wordperfect does it too and they have nothing to do with MS. and Word pad. So its the font trying to convert.

Post Wed May 05, 2004 12:23 pm

Oh the nasty stories that got floated up then.... and the idiot newscasters who went chasing after them for scoops. It was stupid and chaotic. We had fabricated reports of whole sections of local communities in which there was a significant number of Muslims holding block parties to celebrate.

There were people of pretty much every faith and race who died that day. People of every faith and race who lost a loved one.

The City put up a web site to list names of people who were reported as missing along with a follow up status if found. Within five hours, some really really stupid hackers had figured out a way to change the notations on the site so that there were people mistakenly believing that their missing person was found and still alive. It was unbelievable how low these "pranksters" stooped. I don't remember if they got caught but I hope they were.
