And finally the last batch of Sayaka Ando:

And another batch of Sayaka Ando:

And some more of Sayaka Ando:

How about some Sayaka Ando:

Here's some random words that I thought of: Ura = Reverse Hanpa = Half assed Nanpa = picking up girls Denpa = Electromacnetic wave Kappa = Water Troll

Saw some gameplay on youtube and the loading time seems to be a little bit long. I'm not a fan of 3d so I guess I'll pass on this game.

Hey, it's been days and there's no word from the dynamic duo. Could something be brewing?

Bar Stool Economics Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for all ten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this: * The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing. * The fifth would pay $1. * The sixth would pay $3. * The seventh would pay $7. * The eighth would pay $12. * The ninth would pay $18. * The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59. So, that’s what they decided to do. The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with the arrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. “Since you are all such good customers,” he said, “I’m going to reduce the cost of your daily beer by $20.” Drinks for the ten now cost just $80 The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes so the first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free. But what about the other six men - the paying customers? How could they divide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his ‘fair share?’ They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted that from everybody’s share, then the fifth man and the sixth man would each end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce each man’s bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay! And so… * The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings). * The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33%savings). * The seventh now paid $5 instead of $7 (28%savings). * The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings). * The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings). * The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings). Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four continued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings. “I only got a dollar out of the $20,” declared the sixth man. He pointed to the tenth man, “but he got $10!” “Yeah, that’s right,” exclaimed the fifth man. “I only saved a dollar, too. It’s unfair that he got ten times more than I!” “That’s true!” shouted the seventh man. “Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!” “Wait a minute,” yelled the first four men in unison. “We didn’t get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!” The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night the tenth man didn’t show up for drinks, so the nine sat down and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered something important. They didn’t have enough money between all of them for even half of the bill! And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is how our tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being wealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they might start drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier. David R.

What Not to do when forgetting your anniversary John was in trouble, really big trouble. You see, he forgot his wedding anniversary and, if you’re married, you can imagine what he’s probably going through. His wife was really pissed. She told him “Tomorrow morning, I expect to find a gift in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 6 seconds AND IT BETTER BE THERE!” She was serious too, so John got serious. The next morning he woke up early and left for work. When his wife woke up, she looked out the window and sure enough there was a box gift-wrapped, right there in the middle of the driveway. Confused, the wife threw her robe on and ran out to the driveway, brought the box back in the house and opened in with much anticipation. Inside she found a brand new bathroom scale. John has been missing since Thursday.

My apologies for currently having a short attention span as I did not read all of the long post that Zeo and Vguyver made. But there is one thing I would like to say about free will and the relationship of this to God. You say that we humans have free will, but what affects the decisions that we make in life but the environment that we are in. And who is the architect of our environment? Being as all powerful as God is, would he not be able to control our environment, thus be able to control our decisions as well? We claim to have free will, but are we not blinded by our way of thinking that our own decisions were actually decided by an invisible force that is unknown to us? Thus we are forced to believe that the decision was ours but in fact, we are influenced into that decision by an outside factor. Think about your last decision and what made you decide that. They say that God is the Architect of Life.

Well, not really hardcore but more of a perfectionist. Besides, I finished the game decades ago. I'm just playing it again now because I wanted to do the things that I wasn't able to do in my first run. In fact, I never made it to 200% in my first game. An example would be killing Galamoth using only the Knife Subweapon. I've kept my save file right before I fight Galamoth so I could experiment more. I just wish there are ways that I could fight the other bosses over and over again. Even beat death using only my bare fist. (Well, technically I was using the Fist of Tulkas)

My belief on the subject is rather lax and incoherent with other beliefs. For one, People choose to have faith because they have nothing else they can do. Instead of resigning to despair, people choose to have hope that at least in the worst times of their life, there is something that they can look up to, much like a comfort zone. Also, there are faithful religious groups that have so strong a faith, that when something good happens to them they say "It is God's Will", and if something terrible happens to them they would say "God works in mysterious ways". People attack faith because they they do not agree with how they think and would want to force their own beliefs to others. Much is similar to other facts that are being attacked. I openly admit that I don't believe in god, but I tell you, I am very afraid of him. (confusing huh? Like the mystery of the Holy Trinity) Which is why I respect the people who have their own beliefs and do not force my opinions on them. (I was raised as a catholic by the way) That picture about atheism does not come to me as an attack, but more of a joke in philosophy of the faithful. It's there to put a test to see who are the devout and those whose belief are forced unto them.

Great, then I can use lots of elixer and life apples with the Fairy to keep me alive.

And he'll probably lose like the penguin guy did in that video.

But he can cast spells right? And I can't remember if your familiars would be present. It would be funny, Dracula pawned by an Axe Knight. I tell you, there are videos out there that show them finishing the game with a level 1 Alucard.

Tomato McGran? You gotta leave it to the Japanese to reinvent things. And I don't know, but the one on the second video looks like a guy. Or is it just me?

Ahaha. You kill him. You kill him bad. You kill him two times.

Wahaha, Ken Murakami. New Member Eat Ken 3 times. Ken change name. Ken now Kenji. kenji feels creepy. What's so creepy about Eatken3? Does it have something to do with him eating you 3 times?

Come to think of it, I have never seen the Guyver TV series subbed yet. I guess I didn't bother getting the subbed episodes after I watched it straight from TV. I miss Wowow.

But still funny though. You get to see Alucard as an Axe Wielding armor. I've never played with is much. Hmm.... idea! I should try Killing Dracula with it.

Perhaps the ruling in the states is quite different, seeing that I live no where near the states. I also remember Galaxy Quest. that's the one where Tim Allen plays the captain of a starship in a TV series, which aliens mistook as a documentary. It did came out in 1999, so technically, it's still in the 90's era.

Ahaha, yeah, the cow. I remember that from using the Leather shield. I remember having a blast with the shield rod when I first got it. I like the Herald shield where is summons a nekid lady. Althought the effect isn't that much good. The Alucard shield is the cheeziest shield combined with the Shiled Rod. The Fist of Tulkas is also one of my favorite weapons. Imaging doing the Hokuto no Ken punch in Mid air. ATATATATATATATAH!!!!!

I've only recently discovered that using a special attack with 2 Heaven Sword equipped on both hands will unleash barraged of swords launched towards your enemy.

Now that would be funny. Godzilla getting slapped by a penguin. Was there a giant centipede before?

Yeah, like I have the time to sit around all day and just play with my phone. Took me all this time just to fix the language pack and make the GPS work. Which by the way, works wonderfully well. Had a great time coming to the office using the navigation system. And it's not by choice that I bought a new phone but out of necessity. And since I'm going to invest on a new phone, might as well get something good. Well, I would like to thank you guys for helping me with the choice of purchase and my little after purchase troubles.
