You know how the Church frowns upon having a significant other move in with you without getting married. I now know why that reason is, because it simply doesn't work.

An n of one ain't proof.

Keep trying. //:=)

Oh and marriage works all so well . . .

EDIT: I have no idea how personal you mean this. Sorry for the loss of your relationship, if that is what happened. I've been away pushing cars out of snow and catching criminals.

Yeah I know it ain't proof. I'm very idealistic when it comes to marriage, I never accept the reality of it because I don't want to.

My relationship is quickly coming to an end, which maybe a good thing.

It'll all work out for the best. After my last relationship ended, I found someone who I honestly can see a future with. Life is funny sometimes, just keep trying.  Smiley

I think you are on the right track being idealistic about marriage.  It is a Holy Sacrament.  If you should have ideals about anything  it should be the Sacraments.

For what it's worth, I went through what you are going through now a few months ago, so I can say with full honesty that I know how you feel.

Seriously, busy with work and my car and body has been a pain in my, actually not there, but yes.

Will catch up with my backlog of PMs and emails.

I might even make a personal appearance in your town*.

Love you all.

*Limited terms and restrictions do apply. Your town must be within a 20 minute drive or walk of my location. Yes, I totally ended relationships over this rule.

I dont know.I lived with my wife for four years before we got married. Finally she pulled out her calendar book and pointed to her Birthday which was coming up in a few months. She told me to pick any day before that to get married. I picked the week before Smiley

It worked out fine.

The utility of the arrangement is not the concern of the Church. Sometimes it works sometimes it don't. They are more concerned with sanctifying the arrangement  as an extension of the Church into daily life.

I could run for any other political office then?

Yes you could. To be a representative, you must be at least 25, and you must have been an American citizen for at least 7 years. To be a senator, you must be at least 30, and you must have been an American citizen for at least 9 years. For both, you obviously need to be living in the state that you want to represent, which is obviously how it is to be a governor and a mayor. I think that each state has different qualifications for becoming the governor, and each city has different qualifications for becoming the mayor.

Can you talk about Diablo 3 or are you under an NDA?

You may know some of it already. All graphics are CG, and not composite pixel files. If you played Diablo 2, it plays very similar, and you'll feel right at home with the layout. Just like Diablo 2, it's created primarily as a single player, but setup for easy co-op through battle.net.

So far, it really just feels like a newer D2, which I think is good and is (1) exactly what return gamers want, and (2) was also the platform that was both unique and attractive for the last game. For example, unlike WoW, there are no arenas, raids, etc to perfect your character for. The gameplay is more geared towards running the story either by yourself (through various difficulties), or with others. There are four difficulties (normal, hell, nightmare, and inferno), and most (they say ~70%) of the gameplay (gear, spells, ability) doesn't even comeout until hell level *which you don't need in normal*. Therefore, you get hooked, and your next run is a little different, and more fun.

I love the new animations that help create the atmosphere of the stories (hero who kills demons that come to Earth). Not just in the hit-kill animations, but the way an old house collapses when you pass it in the zombie infested town of Tristram. That was my favorite part of D2, the way the story atmosphere was built up so you're not just playing a game, but living a story. They kept it going in D3.

Celtic, I've always liked you.  That's why it hurts me so much to inform you that now I must hunt you down and kill you.   Cry

lol, I've always like you too vamrat. Be relieved to know I'm not really a brony (I don't even watch the show), I just find bronies humorous and just posting these things because it's hilarious.
That's somewhat reassuring, although the fact that you aren't sickened by the existence of bronies does worry me somewhat. Finding their memes amusing could just be one of their traps to lure you.

It is really a beautiful country and the people appear to lack the pretensions and nouveau riche crassness of, at least, Sydney-siders.

I do tend to get annoyed by the constant wave of immigrants from New Zealand complaining about how *$%*@ Australia is in comparison to New Zealand (they tend to use pretty colourful language, those New Zealanders). I mean -- if that's the case, why leave?

Hoping to go boarding there this season.

I was talking to a Russian guy at a party last night who referred to the Caucasus as Russia's Mexico.

It is an education process for me as I learn about the psychology of spiritual apostasy. And others get the benefit of perhaps hearing righteousness for the first time.

Not to toot my own horn too much... I wrote a few quizzes at Fun Trivia.com, on Orthodox topics. They are here. The top listing is a category, the ones below are individual quizzes. My nickname on that site is Neon000. Hope you have fun.   Grin

The UDF (think Baskin-Robbins meets 7-11 for those outside the Tristate) by my school is closing down. This seriously bums me out.
Well, apparently the new owners backed out and it'll be there to stay. On one hand, this makes me really happy. On the other, I'm filled with the strangest paranoia that my life is a TV show and the writers wanted to mix things up a little, but test audiences didn't like the changes so the producers pulled the plug on them.
