Posts that don't belong anywhere else

So, I'm bored and feel like something fun would be to troll the Internet for different scary stories you may or may not have heard before and post them, one a week. _____ Three days ago, my last living grandparent, my mother's father passed away at the age of 89. He was a WWII vet, and my mom tells me that after returning home from the Navy, he was never quite the same. In factm he was pretty paranoid about nearly everything. I was never really allowed to stay at his house. In 1965, his wife died suddenly, with no real explanation. My mother tells me that my grandfather became extremely fearful of a nuclear was with the communists, and that he started to dig a bomb shelte…

I went shooting recently and I must say this is one of my favorites. Or this one. Now, I know the AR15 doesn't have a clip in it. Shhhh.

THIS IS NOW THE OFFICIAL PK AND AVAHRA LURK FORUM

... and I gotta say I've gotten quite fond of building these things. They basically come in pieces on plastic trays you have to cut out every piece, sand them on the left-over nubs and polish them a little bit. These kits I built have some amazing flexibility, figure a human being flexibility, and would probably contain 200-250 pieces each. Sorry for some of the average quality picture, camera is a bit old and not the best.

Started buying parts for it last week and will be getting one or 2 components every pay day. So far for the parts. casing - Thermaltake Urban S31 Power supply - Ultra X4 Modular 1050-Watt Gigabyte Z87X-D3H - motherboard Intel Core i7 4770K - CPU Kingston HyperX Fury - ram and a MSI GeForce GTX 760 for vid card. Got the vid card already and as a bonus, it came with watch-dogs. Haven't been following it really but seems nice.

I tried to come onhere earlier and got a MAINTENCE NOTICE. WHAT THE HECK IS THIS

I moved into a new apt last week, and the rent is higher than what I was paying. So, sadly I must start cooking dinner every night rather than my once or twice a week I had going on. What are some of your go to recipe dinners?

http://www.gawker.com/all-my-friends-are-dead-489716639 This is worth your time to read. It actually made me sob while reading it. So many painful memories linked to family and friends who are being 'helped' by the little prescription bottle. More often than not, them becoming far worse off after their pill therapy ended. Imagine taking a vacation from real life for years at a time. You end up stopping taking your prescription for whatever reasons, and you're thrust into a new world you haven't taken part in for a long time. It's such a shock that most don't even know how to cope with it, or even know how to begin to fit back into it. It's essentially a very crude, un…

Wow..... I don't think I can agree with this. As much as I liked the Harry Potter series and can admit Voldemort is pretty badass, I don't think anyone tops Vader. One thing I DO have to admit though is that Voldemort definitely gets props for killing that retarded Robert Pattinson.

Not making a big huge list this time. Since I got the new laptop, I don't have my others installed yet. Instead, I'm going to share one new one I found.

Awww yeah, four horsemen of the apocalypse. Been wanting this for awhile also. My guy was able to get pretty much all of the line work done yesterday but considering the detail it took a few hours. Going to go back in a couple weeks to start work on shading and full color but it's probably going to take at least a couple more sessions when everything is all said and done. Woot!

A webcam. Malibu and sprite. I'm downloading skype and it's gonna be a shitshow tonight

So far we have 3 people signed up for this years Fantasy Football Competition. Myself and Mr. and Mrs. TC ...... they're pretty good but the thing about FF is you don't need to be an expert to have fun, or even win..... First we need to fill in five more seats, then if there's more we can accomodate. After that we can set the draft date.

I'm trying to start a Gamercide promotional team. I just need a couple of people to go around and promote the site and try to bring in new membership the best way they can. There aren't any rules or quotas you will have to meet, I just want you to at least do it once a week at least (feel free to do more if you would like) and try to bring in site viewers and new members to the forums. If you do do it and decide you don't want to do it anymore just let me know and your off the hook just like that no questions asked. Just go to various sites, people you meet online/live or by word of mouth even among friends or acquaintances and promote, promote, promote. You will get a …

It's been so quiet around here lately. What do we do to pump some life back into the place?

Yet no new threads or even reply posts over the weekend. I'm going to lay out how I perceive things. Reddit will be the undoing of many community forums. Scoff if you will, but hear me out. Reddit is a dreamscape for all types of people. It has it all. Whatever your heart could desire you can find on Reddit in small, bite size pieces. Are you a Burt Reynolds fan? Reddit probably has a sub forum for you. It's your one stop place to go to fill all your online needs. All within a few clicks for you to quickly absorb, so you can move onto the next bit of content you're after. Still with me so far? I hope so, because I have an important question to ask of you, and I hope …

I don't know if any of you follow stock news or anything, but holy crap what a WILD freaking ride I've been on over the past week. So there's this no name company, MGT Global, that apparently appointed John McAfee as their CEO. Yeah, that McAfee. The batshit crazy one. Who's also supposedly running for president. hahahahaha ANYWAYS. So the stock was sitting around $0.70 when they appointed him. And boy oh boy did that start to blow the heck up. I got in around $1.30 for a thousand shares. It's been growing non-stop every day. Today it hit OVER FIVE DOLLARS A SHARE!!!! I sold that so freaking fast because I knew it would bomb. I kept like 100 sha…

Looks like all is quiet on the home front. Been busy with work and visitors, oh, and finishing projects around the house. Started on rebuilding a bridge on my property today, put the first of several cameras up earlier this month, and had several visitors come and go the past couple of weeks. Not to mention work as usual. Hope everyone is doing well. Also, been trying to make time to play some games unsuccessfully, and we're about to hit another heavy season of games. I do have GoW 4 that came with my GPU. Want to put some time into it after Deus Ex.

AOL News "(Oct. 6) -- A small rural community in western Tennessee is outraged and the fire chief is nursing a black eye after firefighters stood by and watched a mobile home burn to the ground because the homeowner hadn't paid a $75 municipal fee. South Fulton city firefighters -- equipped with trucks, hoses and other firefighting equipment -- didn't intervene to save Gene Cranick's doublewide trailer home when it caught fire last week. But they did arrive on the scene to protect the house of a neighbor, who had paid his fire subscription fee. "I just forgot to pay my $75," Cranick told ABC News. "I did it last year, the year before. ... It slipped my mind." Later tha…

Wont be looooong now.

Okay, this may or may not be just a thinly veiled post so I can show off my new system that most of you guys know I just picked up. Anyhoo, here goes. Kinda hard to see in the lighting, but this photo consists of an Insignia 55" LCD 1080p TV, Xbox 360 Elite, PS 3, hi def DTV/DVR satellite box, a Denon AVR 1910 receiver, Klipsch RPW-10 subwoofer, and a set of B&W DM 570 main speakers. The speakers are a little dated, but anyone familiar with B&W products will know that they produce awesome speakers. These are on plant shelves above and behind me where I sit in my living room. The wire on the one speaker only shows for the couple of feet you can see in the pic. …
