Akupunktur hilft!

Ich möchte da jetzt aber nicht näher ins Detail gehen.

get me a doctor

Ack. The pain! The pain!

[Quote] The Canadian Red Cross, having eliminated all pain and suffering in Canada, has set its sights on video games that use red crosses to denote in-game health-packs. They’ve sent lawyer-letters to game-makers telling them that marking health-packs with red crosses is illegal and will damage the Canadian Red Cross. [Quote]

That being said DDO might not be as shiny as it seemed after the first impression. Read this thread to find out why. On the other hand I still think that I would take up an subscription if there were good stories and GMs.

Unqualifizierter politischer Kommentar

Ich sitze hier gerade in der Nachtschicht und Mr. Bush gibt gerade seine State of the Union Address zum Besten, die hier natürlich live verfolgt werden muss. Und ich stelle fest, dass sich der spontane Drang diese Hackfresse zu ohrfeigen einfach nicht abnutzt…

Außerdem habe ich gerade gelernt, dass wir alle die USA wegen ihrer guten wirtschaftlichen Lage beneiden (müssen). So sieht es nämlich aus.
