What kits did you pefer? Recon with the SMG and the demo kits. I love to mine installations and then wait for some guy to attempt a missile cap, and then blow his ass to smithereens. I don't remember what my rank was, Master Sergeant or something. I'm "VanHelter". I'll pop you a buddy request the next time I'm on. We're probably close enough to play on the same server without much latency.

You should enter one of the many photo shop contests. I used to do some. There was this guy who got famous for making animal hybrid pics. Maybe I could try a few of those, could be fun for this forum

I dont play 2142, but many on my team does. My bro has a lot of time into that game, but I don't think he plays anymore.
I've been playin Raven Shield, and TRibes2 still. Need a newer computer to play the newer games, mine is about 6 years old now. We've been playing Halo3, and Madden 08 on Xbox live.

Fark.com used to be the big web-site for photoshop contests.
I think you have to register now. We could do one here, just post a new thread, with a picture, and get creative.

Ah, y'know, the usual stuff.
Adultery, coverting my neighbor's camel, and the worship of false gods.

Recon with the SMG and the demo kits. That's my second favorite kit. Otherwise, I'm a defibulating machine that spits rockets.
I love to mine installations and then wait for some guy to attempt a missile cap, and then blow his ass to smithereens. As long as you aren't a bunny-hopping demo-plopper... You ever see those guys on servers with the friendly fire turned off? The just jump around dropping bombs at their toes whenever there's enemy around. Its lame. FF=On pls!
I don't remember what my rank was, Master Sergeant or something.
Here are the ranks. I'm almost to Warrent Officer Gold.
I'm "VanHelter". I'll pop you a buddy request the next time I'm on. Cool, if I don't see it then I'll send one to you.
We're probably close enough to play on the same server without much latency. Yeah, hopefully.

Need a newer computer to play the newer games, mine is about 6 years old now. I went to a computer department store when I was in Chicago and just bought a new motherboard, processor, and videocard. My brother had some left over ram and I used my old harddrives. The whole bill was only a couple hundred bucks and my computer was like 5 times better. Point being: Don't waste your money buying a new computer. Build your own!
We've been playing Halo3, and Madden 08 on Xbox live.
Any gripes with Halo3?

Since I was about 9 years old I've enjoyed fly fishing having grown up in the foothills of the Windriver Range in Wyo. in (abe: and near) Lander. My brother, my sons and I have fly fished and rafted the Yellowstone River and the Big Horn Rivers in the Billings Montana area where my brother lives for a number of year. When I was growing up my dad had horses and we packed back into the montains 7 mi from the last road to a height that we could pack our catch in snowbanks in August. That was back in the 1940s and 1950s when the area was so remote that whenever we went up via blazed trails to places like Smith Lake above Lander we could figure on having the lake to ourselves. The trout were large and lively.
One year some church folks from my brother's church went on a retreat above Cody Wyo where a jeep trail of 20 mi or so brought us up the side of a mountain to Buffalo Bill's lodge overlooking Cody Dam far below. There was a private lake at the Lodge site. Some rich Christian business people from Fla owned the place and we had the run of it for a weekend. My brother and I took the canoe down to the lake and to our surprise the lake was full of super lively gigantic rainbow trout and German brown trout. Needless to say we had the time of our life playing those big babies in on the tiny little flies! My brother and one of my sons do the science () with fly fishing, matching the hatch and tying their own flies. I've never been into it that intense but enjoy it anyhow. I like fishing with the experts. One year at the Fort Smith fly shop near Yellowtail Dam I walked out leaving an envelope with $800 in the shop on the counter which was most of the trip money for the rest of the trip. I didn't miss it for a day and when I inquired about it the folks said it went into the trash. I had it hid in the camper and some oil had messed up the bills so I took the whole thing in to pay for the flies. Those babies were the most precious flies I've ever fished with. (I wasn't laughing then.)For the info of any fly fishers the three mile run below the afterbay of Yellowtail Dam is rated one of the best in the nation. The fish get large there and do very well due to the even cold temperature year around for the three mile run, the water coming out of the bottom of the afterbay. I could go on and on with things that happened but one more for the record. One year my 2 brothers and I (teenagers) walked back into Smith Lake to fish. On of the brothers moseyed around the lake to the other side from camp and fished. As he was fishing his way around the lake back we heard some loud cracking sounds. all of a sudden a huge segment of a granite mountain ledge came rumbling down to where my brother was standing a few mininutes earlier. I would estimate the chunk to be about the size of a one ton delivery van. Thank God, my brother was at a safe distance by the time of the slide. Smith Lake was so cold in August that when we built a log raft to raft the lake we had to take turns getting in the water to work on the raft because our legs would get so cold. I enjoy organic gardening, rock hunting, concoctng bizzare food mixes, mueslichs and deserts, using wholistically healthy ingredients, antique bottle digging, tinkering with old clocks and watches, etc as well. I suppose some of this would be more in the line of activities rather than hobbies so I hope I'm not too far off topic. Edited by Buzsaw, : No reason given. BUZSAW B 4 U 2 C Y BUZ SAW.

I grow aquatic plants and create aquascapes. I grow them in freshwater, saltwater and brackish water. And yes, there is fish in those tanks.
Freshwater
