Well, I guess I should pop back in for a visit.

Gas is outrageous, I hate it. I remember when $20 set you for a good half tank. Maybe a little less... Anyway, now $20 is gone in a flash. I'm not really getting a car right now. I use my mom's car until I go off to college this Spring or so. I sold my car so I could have more money to get to College. I would like to get a smaller car though, when the time comes.

Clinton's drop out of the race has not swayed my vote in anyway. I am just having problems decided, I like both of the candidates.

As for the China menu,

. That is funny, sensible too, I guess. I don't really watch the Olympics, at least I am not able to, because of a conflict of schedule prevents it. I don't particularly have a favorite sport.

James K. Polk · 07-15-2008, 11:15 PM

So with no decline of gas prices going up, have you thought about getting a smaller car to help with save some money.

My car is a tank when it comes to gas mileage. If I had to guess, I'd say my little Ford Escort gets about 35 miles per gallon. Which makes up for all the other shit that sucks about it. But damn it. I love that car.

With Clinton droping out of the presidential race have you decided to sway your vote any?

HAHAHAHAHA.

No.

Did you hear that China is forcing its resteraunts to reduce the number of items they serve on their menus to reduce the chance of offending forigners during time of the Olympic games. So yeah dog is off the menu!

How do you type out a rim shot? Anyway, if China wants to change something in hopes of not offending foreigners, why not change their COMMUNIST POLICIES AND CLEANING UP THE GOD DAMN POLLUTION. BA DUM CHH.

I think eating dog is the least of their worries.

Do you plan on watching the Olymipics?

Do they still do the Olympics naked? That may have a great effect on how I answer the question.

What is your favorite Olympic event?

ICE DANCING. The answer will always be ICE DANCING.

Ok now that is truely funny. I know its a little off of all the topics that have been discussed but with the 10th anversiry of Xenogears coming up, I was just curious as to who has played it? What your thoughts where on it? and if anyone has heard rumors of a remake?

James D. · 07-21-2008, 06:34 PM

I have a Nissan Maxima, so my gas mileage is good enough. I find myself being more conservative as to where I drive and how often. You have to drive about twenty minutes north to get to anything in my town, so me and my associates collaborate and carpool more often than ever before.

As to Xenogears, I haven't played it, but I always wanted it. Same with Vagrant Story and a few other Squaresoft titles.

As to the Olympics, I am not really interested at all. I would like to see our country do well, but I probably won't watch.

But, as an American, I am super excited about the upcoming NCAA/NFL season. My team (the Dolphins) just traded Jason Taylor, my favorite player, so I have to grieve.

I wonder if they'll actually go 0-16 this year. They've been teasing for so long, I just want it to happen.

The Packers really aren't in a better position though. Favre is crying like a 13 year old girl who doesn't have a date to the middle school dance. If we keep him, he'll get injured (see: Madden Curse, Old Guy syndrome), and if we get rid of him, the fans that still hump his leg will turn on Aaron Rodgers, and at the first mistake will make effigies and pray for his death and whatnot. I don't know. **** Favre. We told him that when he retired, we're moving on, and have made adjustments to prepare for Rodgers. Then Favre comes back and expects us to accommodate his every whim.

At least the Brewers are good.

Meier Link · 07-22-2008, 03:12 AM

Yeah I find it kind of funny that I was just ranting about gas and I traded in my p.o.s. G6 for a 06 mustang and a 08 kia sorento. both with estimated gas milages of around 18mpg haha, I'm stupid. Oh well it's a good thing I only drive atmost 20 miles a day.

But as for football I realy need to catch up on Dallas I haven't kept up with them in the post/pre season. I honest hope they do better then last year.

H.U.N.K · 07-24-2008, 02:09 PM

Hey guys names Andrew and i was wondering if i could join TFF of America.
Im from Sparta,North Carolina and its basicly a town no one have ever heard of. Anywho I really cant say much for my town except no one ever comes heer

.

Since all you need to join is to live in the USA then i think i meet the requirments so what do you say.

God Bless America.

Meier Link · 07-25-2008, 03:20 AM

Since Wrey hasn't touched on this, I am sure he will let me be the first to greet you into the club seeing I am "Assistant to the Regional Manager" haha. You will have to wait to see your name added to the memebers list, since hes the only one with access to that. Feel free to back track and awnser so of the previous questions over the last page or so, if you feel like it.

James D. · 07-25-2008, 07:08 AM

Of course you can join!

And yes, Meier Link can let people in. Anyone who wants to can just start posting, and I will catch up the list as I go along. Its not like we have a terribly strict guideline or anything.

North Carolina. Man, how is that? I almost went to Jacksonville a few weeks ago and heard there was nothing to do there and it was miserable hot.

Fishie · 07-25-2008, 09:07 AM

Welcome to the club, Hunk.

I've never been to any of the states on the other side of the country. The only states I've ever visited was Nevada and Arizona. My family and I were going to Laughlin in Nevada about four of five years ago and it's about a five hour drive from where we live. Plus another half an hour depending if you decide to stop at the truck stops and go on the highway down there.

We went in the summer to check -- I mean they went to check out the casinos. >< Since I'm not 21, I couldn't do much but look at the view and eat at the buffets. We did bring the boat though and we went to the river which was awesome. I got drive it too!

My cousin pissed me off though. I wanted to drive like crazy and crash it but it would've been a stupid move on my part.

The weather out there in the summer is ridiculous. It's like the minute you walk out, you already start to sweat with any little movement you do. And at night, it's still hot but warm.

I hope one day to check out the rest of the country: New York, Florida, Oregon, and a few other places.

OmniTense · 07-25-2008, 01:05 PM

I've been in...Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, Indiana and Texas. Really, there's not a dramatic immediate difference notable in any of them, with the exception of Texas, Georgia and Florida. The coast and gulf are always a pleasure to see. Surfing is nice, if a little impossible, conditions permitting on the east coast.

Food seems to get better the further south you go in America. Has anyone noticed this? Restaurants seem to have more inventive and delicious dishes in the south.

Other than that, nothing much to tell.

That might be true for everything except pizza. The stereotype is true - NYC has the best pizza. I really miss it.

Also, Southern food may taste good, but it is guaranteed to kill you.

Where have you been?

Meier Link · 07-28-2008, 03:00 AM

Haha seeing I am from a central southern state I know exactly what you mean. Alot of the cooking down here is more of the down home style, and is very good. Kansas City has some awsome BBQ along with Texas. Also I don't think anyone can really touch Louisana's cajun food it is supurb. Here in oklahoma the best thing I can think of to eat it Taco Beuano haha (obviously mexican) for fast food it is amazing, I can prolly eat it every day, their salsa will blo0w your mind. If you ever see one you have to try it out.

James K. Polk · 07-28-2008, 11:05 PM

Seeing as Wisconsin is a large German community. We love sausage. There's nothing like a hot sausage (especially bratwurst) on the grill, tailgating outside of your favorite stadium. Don't take that out of context. Seriously, I have nothing for you to blackmail me with.

Also beer. Lots of beer.
