Broke my trusty mini Maglite the other day, so I started looking in to getting a new, better flashlight.   While doing this I found out there are "flashlight enthusiasts" who have dozens of flashlights and do things like take them to the driving range to see how far the light will shine, then post about their flashlights on their flashlight guy forums.  The internet is a weird place, man.

Anyway, I ordered this thing: 



Waterproof, dustproof, apparently reliably makes a relatively large amount of light.  Alrighty then.  I look forward to breaking it as well.

Edited for spelling because ugh


I don't get that ad. Looks like the flashlight got dropped to the ground after someone lost some blood on that rock.

It recently occurred to me to me that Marty needs a visa to get to the US, and the US visa process can be a real pain in the ass. That is probably part of why he hasn't made it over and may fuel some of his animosity (the US Poland visa policy is stupid).

If his dickheadedness on Languish is any indication, he's probably alienated everybody that could possibly sponsor him by now.  You're SOL, faggit.

I hae been considering the place of turkic cultures on the worldship. The world(ship) needs pastoralists and teashops, and half-lidded men who look on the changing world with a resigned indifference.

This is a bold step forward, as DIVERSITY FORCE inducts its first brown(ish) members.

The niggerbots on your magic spaceship won't be pleased.

 Niggers have no place in the worldship society.

Southerners and celts are enough of a drain upon the law enforcement and social justice systems as it is..
It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

Janeway also just about got a bunch of her crew killed for the sake of a holographic masturbatory aid.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Not impressed. Janeway just lacks...something.

A legacy admission means someone in the family went to school there *and* donated a bucket of money.
Wrong in theory, but right in practice :D

Maybe you meant that, tho.

Everyone hated Voyager, but I like it... for some reason. :hmm:

A lot of the episode writing sucked, but I thought Janeway was cool.

Taking into account your attraction to Hillary Clinton, this does not surprise me at all.  She and the Janeway character seem rather similar in temperament.
