    What is the point in having voicemail, if you can't be bothered to leave a message?
    Swear it was like it has only been around the past five years, or it is just not a good
    way to say : call me back about xyz.
    The tech is making phone etiquette a thing of the past. Freaking morons...
    Don't be a dick and leave a message, that is what voicemail is for!
    Sorry the local yokels around here have the combined IQ raisin.
    Well that makes 2 things they should be revoked:
    Drivers Licenses until they learn how to drive.
    And phones, until they learn about leaving a bloody message.

    My hometown of Mobile, Alabama is under a tornado warning -- that is chances are very high that a tornado will happen. Large hails the size of golf balls, etc. The storm is blowing at 50 MPH, and the weatherman is basically begging everyone to take shelter now and that this is a severe situation.

    Thanks. We're not in the clear yet, we're getting hail the size of eggs coming down. Hopefully Mobile won't suffer a repeat of the Tornado of 2012.

    Dat ass!

    What...? What! I mean...

    Lately I've been thinking about how I would make a Halloween TV series. I don't mean ghosts, witches and pumpkins, I'm talking about Halloween (1978). I would make Dr. Sam Loomis younger. How young? I'm not exactly sure. Maybe young enough to fight and run and take abuse. The asylum Michael Myers is staying in will have to play a role. Maybe like a type of monster of the week but with patients (and supernatural entities). I'm not sure if I would make the Cult of Thorn part of the universe. But then again, it could open up other doors for other things to happen.

    What I would focus on are the dynamics between Dr. Loomis and Michael Myers. It's what interests me the most.

    I feel like there's potential on a Halloween TV series. Oh well, my thoughts will never see the light of day.

    ^ Sounds cool, @20oz . You should do it! :D

    I haven't played videogames in half a week now. For some reason, it just doesn't appeal to me right now. Been spending that time either writing or surfing the internet.

    That is the jest in it, as far as I know it does not exist. Though you can be the first to write such a story. :p

    LOL, where would I even start with something so epic! Human-shark Hybrid Harpoons Mermaid of Dreams, or Human-shark Hybrids vs. Mermaids, or The True Story of Romeo and Juliet.

    Why not just make it an independent species that has human traits, but happens to be a shark people. :p
    I like your first option: Shark Harpoons Mermaid of Dreams. Sounds like a fun one that I would love to read. :)

    All I can say it that it will happen! I don't when or how, because I have more than enough side stories to me busy for the next two eternities, but it will!

    But it's how I show my love for you, Minstrel! :D I'm a whale, remember?

    Also, a confession... Watching medical phlebotomy videos on YouTube relaxes me. :ninja::wtf:

    Now to poop on everyone's cheerful day:

    Just found out my friend and coworker isn't doing well. :( His sister is VERY sick and they have to take her to the hospital due to severe kidney issues. She's just 13 years old.

    Let's pray for my friend's poor sis. :(
