Aha! Here we have yet another manga which falls victim to my "choose a random manga or anime and review it" strategy! Congratulations!
Story: "Busou Renkin" (or however you want to spell it) is about a boy named Muto Kazuki. He is walking around one day (or whatever the hell he was doing) and is nearly killed by something. Well, actually, he IS killed, but a girl named Tsumura Tokiko gives him an artificial heart-thing and saves him. Kazuki is now able to fight, Shounen Jump style! (But that makes sense. T.T)
If you have never read a shounen manga in your life, this story may sound original. If you have... then all I'll say is that most Jump manga follow this strict, strict guideline.
Art: The quality certainly fluctuates. I could hardly believe this is the same mangaka who created "Rurouni Kenshin;" the art looks so different. Sometimes the art is so cool you want to leap ten feet into the air, and other times it's so disappointing you want to rip out your hair in frustration. As far as character designs go... odd. Tokiko looks cool, with her scar (Kenshin, anyone?) and short haircut. Kazuki's resemblance to Takashi from H.O.T.D is uncanny; they look EXACTLY the same. Papillon's flamboyant (and disturbingly tight-fitting) outfits may scare viewers. I practically choked when I first saw him.
Plus, even though this is Shounen Jump Advanced, they had to censor some scenes using pixels or speech bubbles. Which (kind of) brings me to my next point: the weaponry. Despite the stupid names, some weapons were pretty damn cool. Tokiko's Valkyrie Skirt was original and made her all the more badass. Kazuki's Sunlight Sword or whatever it was wasn't too unique, but I suppose he could have had a baseball bat (he's already too much like Takashi, thankyouverymuch). And so on.
Characters: Kazuki kind of bored me. Sure, he's nice and all, but way too generic. I mean, he likes his sister, which is in no way unique ("Bloody Monday," "Code Geass"). He wants to protect his friends ("Bleach," "Naruto"). He has a crush on his sidekick (Do I even need to name anything for this one?). Tokiko, on the other hand, spent a good chunk of time as my girl-crush. You know, if I ever switch up my claimed characters, Tokiko has a shot at being one of mine. She's badass, no-nonsense, not a tsundere, not a benchwarmer, and just awesome--exactly what I want in a manga character. And her catchphrase ("I'll splatter your guts!") could certainly have been worse. Unfortunately, the villains didn't fare so well. "Busou Renkin" has some of the worst villains of any manga out there--they are not intimidating, not tragic, not likable, not aggressive, and serve no effing purpose. I can't believe how much potential was lost because of them.
Overall: "Busou Renkin" is a prime example of wasted potential. It was never anything special, but could have been so, so much more. I dearly hope there are more Tokikos out there. She is the reason to read this manga; there is nothing else particularly good about it.
There are no comments - leave one to be the first!

RDM's could still backline, but BLU's hybriding nature would be diminished. I don't think many of the RDM's understand that. You would think we should know this considering we stole main healer away from WHM for quite a bit of time or even tanking better than PLD's on HNM.
Pushing RDM forward has nothing to do with what BLU can currently do. And sharing a potential spot with one class is not a bad thing. We're both melee mages. It's about time SE starts treating both of us as such.
Despite all my previous statements on this forum, I'm more concerned about job balance than anything else. If you believe we have a balanced back-line right now, let me know. I don't agree, all I see is WHM, BLM, and SCH honestly. I see like 12-14 melee classes, a few misc(brd,cor,pup), and the rest back line. I'm really interested in how anyone could possibly say we aren't needed in back more. Or that RDM's move to the front wouldn't step on DNC or BLU's toes.
PS: Seeing that BLU and DNC have their own uses, there's not much in terms of toes to be stepping on.

Great job guys.
Interested in Language
If I understand your question, then the answer is yes you can view a list of all words.
Navigate to the Word Frequency report and you should see a list of words that, by default, excludes common words, numbers and single-occurrence words. You can use the tick boxes on the right of the report to include or exclude any of these options.
I hope that answers your question.
I'm not a teacher, so please consider any advice I give in that context.
Great job guys.
Yes, nice work.
I had trouble getting the sort by "Frequency" combo box selection to work under "Hard Words".
I'm not a teacher, so please consider any advice I give in that context.
When I analyzed some text by Hemingway, the Analyser graded it as a 6th grader's writing. Then I mingled some long words in gibberish, the Analyzer concluded that the text came from a "30th grade" college graduate. What can be improved?

Thank you for this text analyser. But my problom is that i cant undrestand the meaning of indexes or rest of the things and the Help Tab just doent work!
I'll be great if a short discribtion of each item is added below the result.
Kind regards and thank you again,
Thanks- sorry for that- there is an error there. I'll get it fixed.
good tool thanks:)
Hi to all,
I ran your analyser: it's a good attempt to give some info but not powerful enough for me at least at first glance, I wish you good luck with its development. Maybe before running it it would be handy to give some detailed features, of course it is just my first impression.
My skills in English language are forever far from needed, but this bothers me not because I believe in constant/lifelong improvements concerning either programming or a language sidekick tool.
I posted in this sub-forum a thread: 'Brutally fast 4-gram phrase ripper' which after accumulating 5 posts I intend to describe in a better/useful fashion.

Our resident sign painter Jarl Lee Harris will begin the project sometime in April as weather permits.

An Owen County sheriff's deputy and former Owenton city policeman were recently thanked for their assistance in helping detain a man being accused of bank robbery. Following the robbery of First Farmer's Bank in Gratz, on March 27, 2010, an extended investigation between the FBI and Kentucky State Police took place on April 29, 2011. FBI agents and Kentucky State Police detectives were attempting to locate and arrest Bryan Kelly and Edward Cook in the Owenton area.
The Owen County Public Library will have a new home later this year and members of the library board are hopeful the same will be said for Owen County seniors. Owen County Library Director Jennifer Nippert said members of the library board attended the Jan. 24 Owen County Fiscal Court workshop to begin a conversation that she hopes will result in the library's current facility becoming the new home to Owen County seniors.
Owen County could soon lose one voting precinct following changes in population according to data from the 2010 U.S. Census. Every 10 years after a census is completed local governments must reapportion if the population changes by 10 percent, after the process was completed in 2011 magistrate district lines were changed because some of the districts were not serving an equal population. Owen County Clerk Joan Kincaid said once the magistrate district lines changed, precincts also had to change.
A public hearing will soon be held following backlash from city and county residents on a plan to change the City of Owenton to a fourth-class city. Owenton Mayor Doug West and State Rep. Royce Adams, D-Dry Ridge, have been receiving negative phone calls from citizens concerned the move could result in a local-option election for alcohol sales or a liquor-by-the-drink ordinance. The City of Owenton is currently a fifth-class city.
On Jan. 13-14, Madison Gamble, Miss Owen County Fair, travelled to Louisville to represent Owen County in the Miss Kentucky County Fair Pageant. There were 90 girls competing for the title. Gamble placed in the top 15. It has been 19 years since an Owen County girl has placed in the Miss Kentucky County Fair pageant. There were several Owen County Fair Board members, family and friends in Louisville to cheer Gamble on. Owen County Fair Pageant Director Becky Duvall said supporters hoped Gamble would continue to compete.

The trouble is that the authorized Nikon repair center in our area is not very good. They receive lousy reviews. But there are repair centers that do superb work on Nikon cameras.
The cost problem for me is in shipping and especially insuring adequately to send it to Nikon. That cost frequently exceeds the cost of the repair.
As the HDR software has gotten increasingly better, photographers also have gotten increasingly better at producing superb HDR photographs. For me, that means photographs that you cannot tell are HDR.
As an avid user of Nik's plug-ins, and a sometime user of the Topaz plug-ins, I very much appreciated the article. All of hullabaloo about Ellen's relationship with Nik cluttered up the Comments section.
A couple of pluses to the SEP2 with Luminosity usage are: you can burn in the edges; the sub sliders under Brightness, Contrast, and Structure are quite sophisticated; and I like SEP2's Vignette tool.
Although I manage everything from LR3, I generally send Nik's plug-ins to PSCS5 because I like the Smart Filter capacity and I love being able to use the Brush tool.

Fortunately, the world premiere of the Spice Girls' musical certainly had its moments of high drama which kept the audience glued. Unfortunately, none of it was happening on the stage. Everyone in the theatre was watching the Spice Girls (four of them), who were themselves staring at Victoria Beckham, sitting two rows behind with her family, and gazing at the floor. Perhaps she knew something the rest of us didn't.

Paul McCartney Plays 'New' Songs at iHeartRadio Festival
Subscribe to Ultimate Classic Rock on
Fans who checked out the iHeartRadio Music Festival over the weekend were treated to some 'New' music from Paul McCartney.
The former Beatle, on hand as part of a star-studded lineup that included fellow classic rockers Elton John and Queen in addition to younger pop stars such as Katy Perry and Justin Timberlake, has a new album (titled 'New') due in stores on Oct. 15, and a new single (also called 'New') out now. Unsurprisingly, he opted to forgo a hits-heavy set in favor of a few songs the audience doesn't yet know by heart.
In fact, McCartney treated attendees to the live debuts of three songs from 'New': the title track (which you can watch above), 'Everybody Out There' and 'Save Us' (both of which you can watch below).
The songs were scattered among older numbers during a nine-song set that also included 'Magical Mystery Tour,' 'Lady Madonna' and 'Live and Let Die,' which closed things out with a concussive blast that found McCartney covering his ears and putting his hands over his chest. "Paul opened the show for obvious reasons," one fan later told the Examiner. "Major pyro and lasers! More than I have ever seen indoors. It sucks for the other artists — I wouldn't want to follow that set!"

JONESVILLE, Mich. — A former Michigan State Police sergeant died Wednesday afternoon in a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 12.
Joseph Merrill Brooks, 85, of Jonesville, driver of one of the vehicles, was taken to the Hillsdale Community Health Center, where he was pronounced dead.
A passenger in the other vehicle, Deborah Rodger, 54, was treated in the hospital.
Mr. Brooks was northbound on Milnes Road, just west of this Hillsdale County village, about 3 p.m. when, after stopping at a stop sign, he attempted to make a left turn onto U.S. 12. He turned into the path of an eastbound vehicle driven by William Rodger, 57, of Hillsdale, according to the Hillsdale County Sheriff's Office.
Mr. Brooks served as a sergeant at the Jonesville post of the Michigan State Police.

I personally won't rest until I have another mid 60's Colt OMM pair, one in 38 & one in 22...
I like your pairing of guns as well..I'd love an old Colt 1911 and an old 1911 "ACE" in 22.. I also saw a Colt cobra snubby for sale in 22..a 38 and 22 pair would be cool to have....

I just filled another pairing,,,
A few years back I bought a J. P. Sauer and Sohns cowboy revolver,,,
This is the same gun that was imported by Hawes in the 60's,,, It's an excellent shooter with a 6.5" barrel in .357 Magnum. I won a GunBroker auction for a Hawes import J. P. Sauer in .22 LR,,, This revolver has a 5.5" barrel and is in very decent shape,,, The frame is a teensy bit smaller than the .357,,, But it takes a ruler to see the difference. I picked it up yesterday,,, I'll take it to the range this evening,,, It feels solid enough and locks up very nicely,,, So I'm hoping it turns out to be as nice a shooter as the .357. Aarond .
Caje: The coward dies a thousand times, the brave only once. Kirby: That's about all it takes, ain't it? Combat: "A Silent Cry" Aarond is good,,, Aarond is wise,,, Always trust Aarond! (most of the time) |

I'll bet he was a happy kid!
I would have sold my sister to the gypsies for a gun like that.
My late best friend had an older Colt Woodsman,,, That and her "shiny" Model 34 were her favorite handguns. I've probably ran over 500 rounds through that gun over the years,,, No doubt that it was one extremely fine shooting pistol,,, But again for some reason I liked "shiny" better. For pure looks that Woodsman was extremely sexy,,, long, lean, and very mean. Aarond .

WENTZVILLE, Mo. (AP) — Construction is beginning on a $380 million expansion of the General Motors plant near St. Louis.
A groundbreaking ceremony at the plant in Wentzville is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Monday. GM, United Auto Worker officials and several political leaders, including Gov. Jay Nixon, are scheduled to attend.
GM announced in November plans to begin making Chevrolet Colorado midsize pickup trucks at Wentzville, creating 1,200 new jobs at the plant. GM already makes Chevrolet Express and GMC Savana full-size vans.

By Harriet Mays Powell & Doria Santlofer
After a severe season of brutal temperatures and bad weather, our skin took a beating. As we head into summer, here are the products that relieved flaky skin, splotchy red spots and an overall dry dull completion. We decided to road test approximately fifty products and several treatments. Here are the winners.
The Winning Treatment:
Dangene, The Institute of Skinovation: Located at the Core Club in midtown Manhattan, is Dangene, the institution of a skinovation. Much to my surprise, there was no pampering, no masks, no massage, no aromatherapy-infused cloths, but what I got was a candid, no-nonsense consultation from Dangene. The procedure starts with a dry microdermabrasion, using a diamond dust tipped wand, which prepares and plumps the skin. The best part is the "zapper," a pen-like tool that literally deletes blemishes. She successfully removed skin tags (even around the eyelids), red spots, dark spots, brown spots, the works. A small scab forms and naturally falls off five to seven days after. The next step is an oxygen blast infused with vitamins A, E and C, which is used to hydrate and plump up the collagen. From there, you go into an LED chamber (the same technology that NASA uses to grow plants in space), which promotes the growth of new cells. You leave the appointment glowing, but after a week, my face looked visibly younger, more radiant and spot-free.
The Winning Products:
Sisley's Eye Contour Mask: After applying a thick layer to the upper and lower lids, you wait ten minutes and gently wipe off the excess. Containing ginkgo, arnica, chestnut, linden, and Vitamins B and E, the eye mask is the best quick fix for puffiness, fine lines and dry skin. The results last all day, this is far and away the best product for this difficult area.
Hydra Beauty Crème Riche: Especially developed for cold weather, this rich cream contains the essence of camellia, a winter-blooming flower that grows in high altitudes. With camellia extract and oil and blue ginger, the cream is thick and moisturizing without being greasy or too heavy. The effects were immediate and the hydration was strong and lasting. Not to mention the seductive smell that made us want to use it everyday this winter.
Lancôme Absolue Sublime Oleo-Serum: On clean skin and before you moisturize, two drops of this serum will smooth and prep your skin for hydration. A thin layer will even out skin tone and texture- wait for a moment and then apply traditional moisturizer.
Caudalie Premiere Cru Cream: Containing Caudelie's three patented products-resveratrol, viniferine, polyphenols- finally all in one cream. Not as heavy as the Chanel cream, this product is perfect for day, to maintain skin's moisture and hydration. This will be ideal as the weather continues to get warmer.

Pink Eye
Pink eye is a term commonly used to describe conjunctivitis, a medical condition in which the thin piece of tissue that covers the whites of the eyes and the inner eyelids becomes inflamed. The most common causes of this condition are a viral infection and allergic reaction. Symptoms may include pinkness or redness in one or both eyes, morning crusting, and discharge.
Pink eye is a layman's term for the medical condition conjunctivitis. Conjunctivitis is inflammation of the conjunctiva, which is the thin piece of tissue that covers the whites of the eyes and the inner eyelids. When the conjunctiva becomes inflamed, it looks pink or red from a distance.
Pink eye is a common condition. It is most common in children, but adults may also get pink eye. This condition does not usually cause any long-term vision or eye problems.
There are several reasons why the conjunctiva can become inflamed. The two most common are because of an infection with a virus (known as viral conjunctivitis) or an allergic reaction (allergic conjunctivitis).
An infection with bacteria (bacterial conjunctivitis) or something that irritates the eye, such as an eyelash, can also cause the conjunctiva to become inflamed.
Besides conjunctivitis, there are a number of other conditions that can cause a red or pink eye. Some of these conditions can be potentially serious.
(Click Pink Eye Causes to learn more about the different types of conjunctivitis and what else can cause a red or pink eye.)

A 41-year-old Kaitaia man was granted renewed name suppression when he appeared before Judge Russell Callander in the Kaitaia District Court yesterday on numerous charges of sex offences against a girl.
The man is facing 10 charges of indecently assaulting a girl under the age of 12 and one each of inducing and attempting to induce a girl under 12 to perform an indecent act upon him. All charges relate to one complainant, between 2000 and 2002.
The accused was visibly trembling as he stood in the dock, counsel Catherine Cull saying he was receiving medical treatment after being arrested on the charges.
The hearing was to have heard bail and continued suppression applications, with Ms Cull requesting a further remand to allow arguments to be prepared. The accused was further remanded in custody without plea to appear again on Thursday, when an application for in-court filming is also expected to be heard.
Also in the Kaitaia court yesterday suppression was lifted when 27-year-old Kaingaroa man George Hayward Murray Cherrington appeared on a number of sexual offences against girls.
Cherrington is facing five counts of raping a girl aged 12-16, three of raping a girl over 16, one of attempted sexual connection with a girl aged 12-16, one (representative) of sexual connection with a girl aged 12-16, eight of sexual grooming, one of assaulting a female, 25 of selling cannabis, 15 of offering to sell cannabis, one (representative) of supplying cannabis to a person under the age of 18 and one of offering to supply the drug to a person under 18.
Cherrington, described on charge sheets as a painter, was remanded in custody without plea to February 22 without seeking bail or continued name suppression.
An application to film in the court was opposed by counsel Ms Cull and one victim, and was declined.

Hi EA,
i recently made myself a gaming channel on youtube called OneShootDownTv and i will upload gameplay videos on this channel.
yesterday i did upload a bf4 giveaway video with few minutes of gameplay video towards the end of the video. but i got a msg from youtube which says that i could not monetize from this video because i basically dont own the content of it. its kinda weird, but i tought i did own the video because it was actually me who made the giveaway picture, talking about give away event and again me who play the game.
i did make some search on google and found that it doesnt matter if it is me or not who plays the game, EA owns the gameplay video because they made the game and therefore own the sounds, music, graphics and stuff.
i did tweet on twitter, asking for EA to allow me to monetize my videos, but i need to get in touch with someone who can comfirm my right to upload this type of content copyrighted by EA.
could i upload gameplay videos in the future where i mention EA's ownership of the gameplay and say something like "this gameplay video is brought to you by EA and DICE" and show your and DICE's logo on the entire video?

The Obama administration hoped the specter of an oil embargo and increasingly stringent banking sanctions would finally force Iran to come clean on its clandestine nuclear program and end its enrichment activities. No such luck. After the third round of P5+1 negotiations in Moscow ended last month in a stalemate, the White House and Congress are competing to isolate the intransigent Iranian government.
Last Thursday, the U.S. Treasury Department moved to close holes in the Iran sanctions regime, blacklisting more than a dozen front companies and four individuals that are helping Tehran evade U.S. and European Union (EU) restrictions on its oil exports, and placing twenty Iranian financial institutions on a watch list.
Meanwhile on Capitol Hill, Congress is pushing for tougher measures aimed at crippling the Iranian economy, arguing that current U.S. efforts are falling short. Taking matters into their own hands, a bipartisan group of legislators began crafting legislation to impede Iranian companies from buying insurance, exporting goods, and securing foreign financial assistance. "What we've done so far has been good, but it is clearly not enough," concludes Howard Berman, ranking Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. "The pressure has to intensify."

Commenting on Hugh Montefiore's ejection from Friends of the Earth based on his support for nuclear energy, ROFTERS had this to say about the costs and benefits of building new nuclear generating capacity:
There is minimal risk of danger to posterity. The advantages far outweigh any objections, and I can see no practical way of meeting the world's needs without nuclear energy. The predictions of the world's scientists are dire and the consequences for the planet are catastrophic. This is why I believe we must now consider nuclear energy. The subject is so important that it should be a matter of informed public debate. Among his former environmentalist allies, it would appear, informed public debate is precisely what is not wanted.

One of the problems with Facebook is that most of your friends are people you already know and in many cases, people you haven't seen in years. There is a huge void which is trying to meet new people.
The other problem is the youth. I was a teen in the late '80s and if my parents knew what I was really doing when I was 15-18 they would have thrown me out of the house. Teens today want no part of a social network of parents, aunts, uncles and good grief, Grandparents!?

Japan Tsunami Debris Washed Ashore Inspires Ruth Ozeki's Latest Novel
Wednesday, January 22, 2014
A couple of years after the Japanese earthquake and tsunami of 2011, people on the West Coast continued to be startled by the site of quake debris turning up on our shores.
Remnants from houses, battered boats and some personal possessions made the long, almost-impossible voyage across the Pacific Ocean to end up in the hands of strangers on another continent.
The idea of that journey sparked the imagination of author Ruth Ozeki: A piece of tsunami debris is the catalyst of her novel "A Tale For The Time Being."
The book has been nominated for a National Book Award, and was a finalist for the Man Booker Prize.
Ruth Ozeki will be at Warwick's Books on Thursday, Jan. 23, at 7:30 p.m.

(C) Arming the slaves would help the South to offset superior northern manpower. (D) Southern control of the port of New Orleans would induce the states in the upper Mississippi Valley to join the Confederacy.

Roosevelt in the 1930's.
20 The Korean and Vietnam wars were similar in all of the following respects EXCEPT :
(A) Warnings were voiced by some respected military leaders against the U.S. becoming bogged down in a land war in Asia. (B) Domestic support of the war declined, as the possibility of a quick and decisive U.S. military victory grew remote. (C) U.S. troops were engaged against an essentially guerrilla enemy force. (D) The war remained limited rather than leading to war directly between, or among, the major powers.

Anderson Cooper will launch a daytime talk show next fall while keeping his prime-time newscast on CNN.
Telepictures Productions said Thursday it has signed Cooper for a talk show that will cover social trends, entertainment and human interest topics. With Oprah Winfrey ending her syndicated talk show, companies in that market have been looking for new daytime personalities who will connect with an audience.
Meanwhile, CNN said Cooper has signed a multiyear contract extension for "Anderson Cooper 360," the daily newscast that begins at 10 p.m. ET. The network wouldn't reveal terms of the deal. It's also not known whether the daytime show will curtail Cooper's travels to news events, a hallmark of his CNN show.
Cooper called the daytime deal "an exciting opportunity to show another side of myself."

Autoricksha Confessions 2: Boxing Day
Las Vegas
I'm attending a conference and like most work days in this city, I have spent half a day in meetings and the other half in the well-known hotel pool (with the awesome swim-up bar). Tired I order in and finish my meal. The phone rings. It is a friend.
"I'll call you back" I tell him "I need to put my plate outside the door. Give me 15 minutes".
"15 minutes!" he says "How long does it take you to shunt your tray outside the door?"
"Well, I'll have to get dressed again" I say.
"Dressed again?" he retorts "To put your food outside!? Is this a crazy bawa thing?"
San Francisco, 3 months earlier
I am attending a conference at the Moscone Center and like most working days in this city I run my legs off for ten hours straight and then go out with someone for a drink. Tired, I come back to the hotel, order in and finish my meal.
Now usually when I'm in the hotel room all tired by myself I sit around in my boxers. There is a good reason for this - most of my formal or biz casual wear isn't exactly good for lounging around a hotel room. And I like to pack light.
Well, right after I finish, I walk out to place the tray well clear of the door. And I get a bit distracted by this wonderful flower display in a huge vase outside the room. Before you know I hear a click behind me - I've been locked out! I quickly check my boxers. Yep, whatdyanow, it had to be the cutesy pink metrosexual one.
Now picture this: I'm in pink underwear, holding a tray with empty plates in the lobby of a rather fine hotel. Did the words "Stark Raving Parsi Lunatic" just run through your mind?
Luckily no one is in sight, but clearly I need to get back in the room and only someone at the front desk can rescue me. After the initial swell of panic subsides, I spy a hotel phone about 10 doors down. So I set the tray down, grab that vase and holding it in front of me, weave my way towards the phone. Hopefully, I pray, startled guests might mistake me for a drunk janitor rearranging furniture and at the most reprimand me with a "Madre del dios!"
I call the front desk using the hotel phone and tell the lady at the front desk about my predicament. After she offers to come up and open the room for me I warn her again "I'm really sorry about this, but I'm in my underwear. Please be mindful of that when you send someone up". And what happens? A gorgeous Latina woman shows up, wisely accompanied by a male escort. Such is male conditioning that your embarrassment grows ten-fold in front of an attractive woman.
Gorgeous Latina doesn't flinch even once although I notice her eyes quickly flick down to my pink underwear and back up again. Situation assessed, she opens my room, peers round the door to make sure everything is in order inside and then walks in. Great, I think, nightmare is over! But Gorgeous Latina then stands right next to my bed, flanked by her provisional bodyguard and says "Sir, I'll need some ID"
Now two options present themselves. I can either (a) pretend like all is cool, grab my wallet from my pants and show her the ID. The disadvantage here would be prolonged exposure. Or I can (b) grab my pants, put them on and then show her the ID. The disadvantage here would be additional indignity.
I opt for (a), try to look all casual and even put a hand on my hip. A faint smile crosses Gorgeous Latina's lips for the first time. The bodyguard nods. They both leave, probably to hours of continuous laughter in some Market Street bar later that night. I place the vase back on its pedestal outside.
Since then I don't take chances with disposing my food tray by doing it in a semi-naked state. You see, I don't make the same mistake twice (although I do make a new one every waking hour).

You were wearing pink underwear, holding a bunch of flowers, running amok in the hotel corridor in San Fran???
No more questions, Me'Lord. - 3/04/2008 9:48 PM

don't lie Aspi
you weren't embarassed because you were wearing a pink boxers with hearts all over it, why don't you tell everyone about the pink fluffy nipple warmers? - 3/04/2008 10:32 PM

No, but something akin to Drift Memsaab's thoughts did run through my mind. 'Nuff said. - 3/04/2008 11:20 PM
Haha!This can be rated as one of ur funniest posts....ur description makes it more hilarious than the incident itself:).
hahahah! I love stories like that. I've encountered someone like that, coincidently, in Vegas...drunk, locked out of his room with nothing but a towel and sox on!! unfortunately, didnt have a towel-in-a-public-place worthy body so it was a gross image!!
- Tania said...
OMG, haha, thats one funny story I have heard in a long time.I would say the autorikshaw confessions are topping the charts on Drift.
- leera said...
I concur, awesome and courageus Aspi!
Btw pink boxers are awesome, I bought my husband of 4 yrs some pink tinkerbell underwear, which he is currently wearing. Needless to say he lost a bet big time. On the flip side he has confessed to their warm fuzziness. - 3/05/2008 11:29 AM
Excellent post !!!!How fuckin embarrasing !!!!Im sure my worst is nowhere near this one!!!
hahahaha. - 3/05/2008 1:39 PM

pink tinkerbell. I'd wear those for sure.
sdk, glad to hear you've lived a more dignified life. - 3/05/2008 2:19 PM
i got some rly embarassing tales but i can't say anything on a public blog..
- Aspi said...
m, not even a scrubbed version? It must have been *really* embarassing! However, consider this: if you do this - there is no way you'll ever be scared of looking like a chump again.
Thats what this does for me. - 3/05/2008 10:39 PM
Wow, Aspi! That seems like an incredibly peter sellers like episode :). People report dreams/nightmares of how they are spotted starkers, but to have that come true --- well not starkers, but pretty darn close!
At any rate you've raised the bar on the confessions --- both the embarrassment and humor quotients. Can't wait for #3 :D. - 3/06/2008 12:30 AM
funny and very embarassing,indeed!
but it takes a lot of courage to talk about embarassing stuff like this.
btw,wanted to ask.On the main page.....
if the 'Movies' column has SRK's pic, 'Music' column has Himesh's and the 'Cricket' column has the pic of some cricketer i dont know then how come the 'Books' column ahs Aishwarya's pic on it:-?
don't get me wrong.i was just wondering! - 3/06/2008 1:06 AM
- Aspi said...
cinderella, aish is holding a book for the Books section. Just like Priyanka is holding a phone for the Mobile artwork. The cricketer is Tendulkar. And you should be able to guess why Dev Anand adorns the archives section.
sidekick, #3 will be decidedly more tame. - 3/06/2008 9:15 AM
Aspi, interesting pics!Cinderella, isnt that how ads work. Often u find pretty girls prancing around in an advert while the product has nothing to do with them.Atleast u find the relevant item here,albeit tiny when compared to the pretty girl:).
oh yes,i do see the book.but it's too small.hardly visible!!!
and i actually had liked the Dev Anand pic for the archives section:)
Anu g,
yes and that reminds me of Hrithik's Acer ad.i was so busy with the tune,hrithik and the dance that i hardly noticed what the ad was for:P - 3/06/2008 2:21 PM
that aish pic is from the poster that they used to promote reading.. in UK or somewhere..
so its not entirely random - 3/06/2008 2:27 PM
- Kanan said...
I've been locked out! I quickly check my boxers. Yep, whatdyanow, it had to be the cutesy pink metrosexual one.
Oh oh! LOL
So I set the tray down, grab that vase and holding it in front of me, weave my way towards the phone.
hehahahaha.. that sounds like a movie scene, Aspi. :D
I opt for (a), try to look all casual and even put a hand on my hip. A faint smile crosses Gorgeous Latina's lips for the first time.
They both leave, probably to hours of continuous laughter in some Market Street bar later that night.
Aspi, I got to admit - you inspire me to pack light, of course, not that much but just a bit. ;) :P

Sports Illustrated picks Lakers over Heat in Finals
The Lakers will have a third consecutive NBA championship after the much-anticipated championship showdown with the Miami Heat, according to Sports Illustrated's season preview issue.
In the new issue to go on sale Wednesday, here's what SI has a scout saying about the Lakers:
All of the hype is going to be on the Heat, as well as on Shaquille O'Neal in Boston. That means the champs can lay back. They'll be able to win 55 to 60 games and pace themselves the way veterans like to do it. ...The attention on Miami is going to get Kobe Bryant hyped up. He's going to be smart about this. He isn't going to try to win the scoring championship or worry about competing with LeBron James. He's going to make sure he's healthy, and he'll put up a million three-point shots in practice because his jumper -- with all of his injuries -- wasn't very good last year. ...
Right now Pau Gasol is the best power forward in basketball. Look at what he did for them in Game 7. Kobe was struggling and somebody had to step up, and the guy who was maligned as being soft was the one who did. I can't name a big man who passes the ball better. ...
For me the second-most-skilled big in the league is Lamar Odom. If you play him straight up, then he gets to pick how he's going to play: He could fill the other guard spot at the top of the triangle, post up a smaller guy or drive on a bigger guy. ...
A lot of their hopes depend on Andrew Bynum's knee. No team can match Bynum and Gasol at the big positions. ...
Now that he's won a championship, you'd have to figure Ron Artest is going to create some kind of issue. It's going to be interesting to see how they do with Artest and Matt Barnes -- two high-maintenance guys -- on the same team, and how patient Kobe is going to be with them.
In his NBA Finals prediction, Ian Thomsen writes: "In the Finals it's the champion Lakers who control the matchups. Pau Gasol, (Chris) Bosh will be reminded, is the best power forward on Earth; Kobe Bryant has the edge at shooting guard until (Dwyane) Wade proves otherwise; Ron Artest's mauling defense can stymie even (LeBron) James. Derek Fisher is a better clutch option than any of the Heat's role players and if Andrew Bynum is healthy-a big if, based on his history-Miami's Big Three will have no answer for L.A.'s Large Three of Bynum, Gasol and sixth man Lamar Odom."

Too many choices may not be such a good thing. But I did promise myself months ago I'd go back to Buenos Aires for a longer stay...I'm about 90% sure I'm going to hold myself to that promise...

Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone has rejected accusations of bribery as his trial opened in Germany - telling a Munich court that the German banker at the center of the case didn't tell the truth.
Ecclestone said in a statement read out in German by his lawyers Thursday that he was 'grateful' to be able to give his side of the story.
The 83-year-old Ecclestone is charged with bribery and incitement to breach of trust, and could face up to 10 years in prison if convicted. The charges involve a $44 million payment to banker Gerhard Gribkowsky, who is serving an 8½-year sentence for taking the money.
Gribkowsky is expected to be the main witness. Ecclestone said the banker didn't tell the truth.

Have you guys done any work on the crew capsule yet? Are your engine designs pretty much done? If you are, Carmack must be jealous as I noticed your using the same type of fuel he is, at least in the monopropellant rocket.

The crew capsule isn't ready yet. The design for the rocket engine is ready but we still have a long way to build it... Armadillo is a very serious team and I do believe that they are ahead of us
