I believe it is actually Google that is going to take over the world. The center of industrialization in reality takes the form of a 'front' of sorts, like a relative line that slowly creeps westward over the course of decades. 50 years ago it was in the Americas. 30 years ago it was Japan. 10 years ago it was China. China is actually going the way of Japan and America now as point of fact. If my guesses are correct, that front where rapid modernization and industrial growth is west of China in the countries that were formerly part of the USSR. They're not going to take over the world, they are just going to dominate the marketplace for the next decade before the front moves further west and they see a peak and decline. Google on the other hand is omnipresent. They operate worldwide and are not chained to any particular physical location. Nearly every civilized country in the world has come to depend on Google, or make extensive use of them. If anyone really is capable of taking over the world as it stands right now, Google is the closest to it.

Making progress, and still with great comedy too. Though I am curious, who DID really kill DB. Or for the matter, is he really even dead?

I'd just as soon clean it up and laugh it off, going out for revenge will only escalate it. Though if it happens again, then I would worry about finding the culprit and having them nailed for trespassing and vandalism.

As far as I am concerned, TV as a whole is over-rated and utterly worthless. Aside from the news, it is almost all nonsense or stupidityfests.

Here's what to do. 1. Get a job. And not just any old job, I'm talking 2-3 full time jobs doing anything you can possibly do. She needs to get a job as well, otherwise you'll never have enough money. 2. You can forget college. Between working to pay for your kid and spending time with her and the kid you won't ever have a chance to go. 3. Don't even think about getting government aid. They'd be all too willing to hand it out, and you would piss off everyry hard-working middle class person out there by getting handouts at their expense. 4. (Should probably be #1 or #2): Marry the girl. 5. Before your kid has a chance to have the same thing happen to them, educate them on safe sex and how to avoid having this kind of thing happen, so that they don't end up in the same situation as you.

America has fallen I think. We were once a great people, now we live in a crumbling nation polluted with worthless people and stupid politicians. Fortunately, but also unfortunately, nations and empires never last more than 350 years. Given that the US was established in 1776, and we are in 2008 now, it is likely that many of us may be alive when the huns- who have already appeared as the terrorist groups of the world, succeed in destroying this country. In addition, the economy is on the verge of collapse due to rising energy costs, and thus far it looks like no solutions are feasible in the long term. So yes, America is still great in some ways. However it is losing it's shine. Do not come to the United States of America, because the dream that built this country is no longer what runs this country. All you'll find here is hard work, low wages, greedy politicians, businessmen, the IRS center, and a few cultural relics that have survived the passage of time. Instead, we are now powered by bureaucrats and commercial interests. In any case, remembering those who followed their dream and built a country of dreams is what fourth of July is really about, not fireworks beer and barbecues. I like to think that the American Dream still lives in the hearts of those who live in this country, but for many all that remains is pride- nothing else makes america different from the rest of the world anymore. Someday, the dream will be reborn again in this land. It could only be in America that the American Dream lives. But for now, enjoy the fireworks and parties, and remember the dream that built all we have.

*is resisting a violent urge to break into the song by Haddaway* There is more to love than just action. Passion, Romance, looking out for each other play a role in relationship love, which is a bit different from family love because those elements are present in higher amounts. Love also means that even though you might argue with somebody at times, you truely and deeply do care about them- and if they need help you will drop everything to protect them. In addition, the things you say about someone you love and what you tell them is another way of showing just how much you love somebody. If you talk sweetly to them, and tell them how much they mean to you- then back this up with actions that prove it, most people will realize just how much you love them and make an effort to return that love. Though it is a combination of words and actions. Say you love them, but then do something to show them just how much you meant it.

Certain types of Ramen are good, though a lot of them don't satisfy my taste and even the good ones take two or three packs to satisfy my hunger when I am making a meal of them. Though my favorites are Beef, Chicken, and Mushroom.

I'm afraid most 'extreme' sports are tame in my book. Now try bullriding. 8 seconds of pure insanity, and loving every single one of them. Mustang riding is even more fun, the last one I fought for half an hour including two unplanned dismounts because of loose equipment before he finally gave up and moved along nicely. Though Bandito wasn't as bad as some, mostly just running fast and turning suddenly. If he had rolled or started bucking I might not have done as well. And the ultimate extreme sport? Fire Swimming. If you are good, you won't get burned for about 30 seconds in direct contact with the flames. If you aren't so good at it, better have good insurance.

[b]Caramell[/b] [i]Caramelldansen Speedycake Remix[/i] Yes the girls are still dancing in my Otakuboards banner, and I still enjoy this song. Kind of a shame that the girls came from a Hentai anime, though I might watch it anyway after finding out just how bad of a perverted series it is. I can deal with it if it is less than Elfen Lied, though more than that and I wont watch it. This song is still spreading like the plague as well, I've heard about 20 people in reality listening to it in the past week, thinking it as something new. [quote name='8bit'][FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"] Dude all Dragonforce songs sound the same. If you've heard TtFaF you've pretty much heard all their songs. lol[/COLOR][/FONT][/QUOTE] Not quite. Through the fire and the flames definately sounds different from songs like Operation Ground and Pound, and Revolution DeathSquad is very different in sound from the others.

It's more like getting hit by lightning honestly. True love just kind of happens sometimes, while searching for love you will never find it. Though it doesn't hurt to get to know people, and the odds are better that way.
