    1. work a job that i dont hate that pays me enough to handle my bills and still enjoy my passions and interests. 2. have my own place with a 2 car garage where i can work on my projects and get lost in a wave of good music and greasy bits 3. find true happiness, one where im comfortable with everything and wake up everyday with ambition.

    The concept has been done before, but thats no reason not to put your own twist on it, or improve on the idea, right? heres some examples that ive found.

    Diecast cars. i ALWAYS go down the diecast car isle whenever im in a department store. i usually end up buying alot of unusual or interesting vehicles in my travels. heres some shots of the bulk of my collection. excuse the poor quality photos and the dust. Prancing Horses (of both varieties) Nissans the legendary Mazda 787B hanging out with a couple trucks Oddities and some of the newer stuff that hasnt been filed into the rest of the collection and finally, the bulk of the collection. little of everything in there, a couple motorcycles in the back, and some badges on the wall

    Breaking Bad, without a doubt. Ive been captivated by the show since it came out, and im anxious to see what Walter does with that lil something in his car trunk. The finale is gonna be a good one, and i doubt they will disappoint when they finally come to a conclusion.

    Well, shit... now i might have to pick between them. I guess its time to crack open a cold one and have a long hard night of soul searching before i place my vote. This could take awhile.

    A couple months ago, maybe around September or October, i was in my basement with a netbook and a mild cleaning project on my truck. I needed to fill the background with some sort of sound, and i had recently added MLP to my netflix que, after hearing that it was a good show. One episode deep, i had cringed a few times, as i wasnt used to this sort of thing, but i was slowly becoming sold on the show. Fast forward a few days, and the idea of watching more episodes was lingering in my mind. I returned to my netbook and netflix and started watching, and before i knew it, i was singing along to the theme song and genuinely enjoying the show. I still didnt consider myself a brony yet, as i hadnt taken the plunge into the community or spent any more... sans a netflix subscription. Finally i joined a forum (first time in several years btw), and bought my first piece of merchandise. The rest you could say is brony history. For the record, i hate the word "Brony", and i consider myself an Equestrist.

    I find the lack of Flitter and Colgate on this poll to be truly distressing. But thats ok, i can fix this problem with pics. There we go, cutest ponies. Back to your regularly scheduled internet forum thread.

    I really dont prefer one over the other because she has a birth name and a stage name. i dont really consider Vinyl Scratch to be her fan given name, but her real name. DJ Pon-3 is her alias that she would use while performing or doing PR work. since we're on the topic of DJ Scratchy Vinyl-3:

    one good thing about most linux distros is that you can run them in a Live environment and try them out before you install anything. you can literally try 10 different distros in an afternoon without installing a single thing. its great!

    anyone watch CZW? i have a few of their dvds still. Please dont watch the video below if youre sensitive to violence, as this aint the WWE. This is a little more raw, a little more rude, and alot more extreme. Some may say its garbage wrestling, but i can appreciate the nerve it takes to do what they do. Again, you've been warned. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R7olUL900A4

    i used to, but not anymore. i watched WWF during the Attitude era, and when ECW was still ECW, not the rebranded crap. Speaking of wrestling, i found this today and thought it kicked ass.

    i buy my stuff from Welovefine as well, and it usually takes 3 weeks from the time i click submit order till the box shows up on my porch. i live in the USA, so im not sure how long it will take to get to europe. very satisfied with their products, despite the time it takes to get them.

    i havent tried too many versions of Linux yet, but i use Ubuntu at the moment. Its too much effort to try and move into a new OS, so i havent experimented with different distros yet. only thing i dont like is the poor Flash support. theres times when my cpu will jump to 100% useage whenever i use a flash intensive site. ive disabled flash for the most part, but i still get those spikes. doesnt bother me though, ive adapted and developed work arounds in order to keep using my aging hardware. someday i hope to try out a few different distros and see what else is out there.

    i was going to do a big pic dump of the sad/emotion pics i have on my comp, but i changed my mind and went with this 4 pic set, since it had a strong impact on me when i first saw it. The pics tell a story, and the last one is the most touching of the set. "The Lost Screw" "The Weakness" "The Methods" "The Little Joy"

    I think her distrust in wheels was added for comic relief, and to dramatize the effects of the amulets corruption. She was ruler of Ponyville for awhile, so she could easily abuse her powers and indirectly torture her minions by forcing them to do every task as hard as possible. I dont believe that she is afraid of wheels, but instead she was taking some sick pleasure in making Snips and Snails drag her around.

    i run Ubuntu 10.04 LTS on my older laptop, which is my primary task comp (internet, music, bs), but i also run XP on my netbook, in the event i need Whinedoze for anything. i dont plan on upgrading either OS, as im in the market for a new rig in the distant future, and ill most likely duel boot it with the latest LTS version of Ubuntu and whatever version of Windows is the best at the time. i only need Windows for gaming, as i rather use Linux for everything else, and Linux gaming just isnt there yet.

    we could say the same for our more outspoken bronies too. how about not starting shit or walking around trying to force the sub-culture on people? anti-groups exist because people dont know how to be quiet about things they love, and have to tell everyone everything about every aspect of it, well beyond the point of where they dont want to listen anymore. The hate comes from being exposed to something to the point of disgust. i have my own lil pony related mantra: dont discuss unless asked. if someone comments on pony related things i do, then i kindly respond with as little info as possible, unless they start asking questions in a non-negative manner. This culture is like a religion, but dont try to shove it down peoples throats, or anti-groups will get a foot hold and they WILL start shit. Think about it: if nobody was outspoken about ponies, then no one would have a problem. If they had an interest, they would find the culture and get informed. We dont need a street team out there spreading the good word of Twilight and her friends. Foamy The Squirrel said it best: You can do what you want, but dont force others to like it.
