Was it the lack of meat and sauce inside that was disappointing? Too much bread too.
@Kraco: did you set up the display with the bullets and shell casings? Or did those come with the movies? The one in the lower right is from a .50 cal, but what is that monster casing off to the right??
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Holy cow Rambo is out on DVD? Your post made me smile xD. *heads of to Virgin Megastore*Originally Posted by Kraco
They didn't quite make it to the last rounds of the Academy Award selection process but buying "quality" movies like these always makes you smile (especially when they are cheap):
The biggest in the pic is a 23mm AA cannon casing (Iraq should be full of these ones as well). I actually would have had a casing from a 30mm AA cannon as well but I forgot it when setting up the pic because it wasn't in the same place with these smaller ones.
But yeah, those are just some random mementos from my army times. I have an AA training, thus the AA related casings. Posting just a couple of Rambo dvd cases seemed like a boring idea so I thought to spice it up a bit.
Nah, those are all used in roadside bombs, so none available for souvenirs.
Your explanation made me smileWe need more enthusiasm like this. It's in stark contrast to the picture of Sapphire's room from the "post a pic of your room" thread.

i'm not really a sports fan...
but free texas rangers tickets is pretty cool, good seats too.
What made me smile?
I just saw the God of War III teaser trailer!!
Smile for me, baby
I get to be in a kimono fashion show on Saturday! All because some people dropped out >.>
I demand photos for the betterment of Gotwoot!
Just quit the job I had at Pappasito's tonight. I had only planned to stay there until early August anyway, but I should have left sooner. Although I loved and will miss all the people I met there and had a lot of fun, it was also damn hard work and was starting to cut into my social life. I'm glad to have earned money though.

How long did you work there? Something like 3 months right? Ahh, how I miss summer job season.

Not even. I started mid-June, so it's only been a month + several weeks. Admittedly not very long, but I spent a good chunk of this summer actually looking for a job, so I just got started too late.
You're right though, it is something I will look back on fondly when I'm older. Good times.

Added new stuff to my Kamen Rider Head display collection today.
"Our hearts are full of memories but not all of them reflect the truth. The heart isn't a recording device. Even important memories change with time. They warp or fade, leaving us with but a shadow of what we hoped to remember." 天の道を行き、全てを司る。これは僕の世界。
Hahah wow you really love that Kamen Rider series, eh Psyke. I can only imagine that the Japanese version of shows like this are better than what we got in the states (Power Rangers).
I saw the first episode of The Office (US version) today. Some really funny stuff, can't wait to see the next episode. I've also just finished the first season of Arrested Development. That series had me cracking up. Great sitcom writing always makes me smile.

Oh definitely. I can't stand Power Rangers too. Kamen Rider and Super Sentai feels more like you're watching live anime. Good plot and songs most of the time too. The recently released movie Kamen Rider: The Next DVD even has brief nudity in it, so you know it's not for kids....

This picture creeps me right the heck out. Makes you seem like some sort of alien headhunter, reminiscent of Predator.

I looked back at the shots I took for the photo contest, and made me style. Busy days at uni had made me neglect the wildlife it had to offer.
Believe it or not, Mother Duck was posing professionally when it noticed me taking its picture. It was quite the duck until it found out I wasn't particularly good at taking pictures.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
Oh man those ducklings.
Something makes me worry that they probably get stepped on a lot by busy students. Ducklings have a habit of getting squashed pretty easily.
I've been smiling this week because all my efforts for weight-gain have been paying off. Shows that it's really just a matter of determination. I started the summer in May at 145 pounds and by several weeks ago in August I was 156 pounds. Wednesday I was 158.
It's feeling great to be moving away from a "skinny white guy" label, even if it's just in small increments.

I just came back from the Nike+ Human Race 10k. Pretty cool, being one of 11k participants in my country taking part along with people all over the world on the same day. 10km was pretty short, considering I just completed a half marathon last weekend.
