TOW-19

Sniper and I will most likely start rolling out new info for the upcoming Crucible-X (our CoD4/Xbox tourney) in about 4-6 weeks. We will be releasing another set of tourneys in the next week or two for the PS3 version of tourneys, and while those are being played out, Sniper and I will be coordinating for the Crucible-X release. And welcome to UF.

I hope Black was as much fun for you guys this go-around as it's always been. Thanks to you guys, as well, for keeping Black alive!

Thanks for the tips, everyone. I went to my local Micro Center today and picked up a 4-port USB Hub made by their in-house brand name. $8.99 and the thing works like a charm, with my headset, keyboard, PS3 Eye and my 2nd Controller Charger all plugged into it and all working properly. So again, thank you for the help. - TOW

SEEEEEEE?! It works! That good ol' Lindsey BloHim movie was ON to something! LOL

Thanks, Hate. Glad you guys were a part of it and thank you for making UF's first Crucible possible. We do hope to see Stormwatch throwin' the bullets in the next one! Keep it up, guys.

I love the old dude clan! Glad to hear you guys will be making a reappearance soon! Nice work and hope you enjoyed it.

I'm glad you all had a good time, AoA! Stick around. More to come VERY soon......VERY soon.....and we're appreciating your presence here in UF as the number of tourneys are getting slung under your belt.

Is no one else going to call shenanigans on this..!? ;D Awwww....these are my real pics from last night! Oh wait....you're still thinking I committed to looking NORTH last night, aren't you. I was lying, Chili. ;D

Yeah? "NAVY SEALS" the movie wasn't all that good. Navy should have stepped in THEN. LOL

I fucking HATE pugs. Don't cry.....ME TOO. (But still.....it had to be said LOL) I like a LOT of stupid movies...... ;D Some times stupid movies are the best ones.

Y'know, I was looking at those two stars when I was taking the pics.....saw them with the naked eye. I don't know stars from jack.....but they were the only two out last night and I thought it was cool that they would be in the pic. Had no idea they were anything special apart from regular stars, though. Kinda cool.

TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEART! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Sweet dreams, everyone!

Christ....and you DOUBT that? ANY country that can boast that it is able to hit a satellite traveling about 17,000mph in polar orbit has some bragging rights....and some muscle to flaunt at the next international homecoming dance, whatever it may be. With human population en mass covering only about 2% of the total land mass on the Earth, and the very land of the Earth itself compromising less than 30% of the Earth's surface, the CHANCES of this satellite hurting anyone, ANYONE, was almost insignificant. As for the strain on the environment from whatever chemicals were on board.....well, when was the LAST time any country's government (specifically the big heads of the military) really concerned with some environmental suffering that a quick and shoddy clean-up couldn't ease on the conscience with the media standing by to spin some good light on it?

Don't cry.....ME TOO. (But still.....it had to be said LOL) I like a LOT of stupid movies...... ;D

HOWEVER, trace amounts of the radiation has fused with passing meteorites and have caused them to attract to one another, forming one massive, world-shattering asteroid, roughly the size of the state of Texas, and it is now hurtling towards Earth. Estimated time of impact is just short of 8 days. Actor Billy Bob Thornton has a plan to assemble a team of oil rig drillers to launch them into space and drill into the asteroid in order to plant a nuclear bomb inside its core, thereby shattering it into space dust. The team of oil drillers has never, in their experience, handled a nuclear weapon. If they are successful in training for zero-gravity, drilling in the harsh realm of space and expertly handling and operating a nuclear weapon AND pull off this immense assignment, the rock band Aerosmith is already tapped to play a benefit concert at Cape Canaveral. May God help us all.

Well, these were taken between 9:03 and 9:41pm, listed in succession. Location: Downtown Chicago. Shot with a Canon Powershot. The smaller moons are with 6x Optical zoom and the larger ones are 24x Digital zoom. 9:03pm 9:03 9:07 9:08 9:21 9:26 9:27 9:37 9:41

EAST Too late.....I'm committed to looking North.

Bump LOL

I don't know.....the way she was initially looking around and all.....I thought it was soap-opera ACTING at best. Staged? For Vday? Don't know.....

Gugh......WHICH direction am I supposed to look again? And no, I don't go camping much. LOL

I WIN AGAIN!

Nope....YOU'RE all going to have issues....because you KNOW you're going to be humming it.....LOL

I COMMAND you..... SING THIS TO YOURSELF IN YOUR HEAD TONIGHT WHILE TAKING PICS OF THE MOON! YOU MUST AND YOU WILL! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55nTwg5NIPM DO IT!
