what do I get! what do I get?!?! If it's money then I'm in!

See, this is how it starts. Someone, a depressed kid gets interested in bombs and stuff. To open up in some random forum seeking for acceptance from random people. When he notices no-one really cares, he does as he has planned: He goes to a big mall with a backbag full of homemade C4, enters the most crowded area, leaves the bomb ticking and tries to run. But at that very moment something goes horribly wrong, he realises there's no point in killing people, and tries to stop it. But what happens is he breaks it, and the bomb goes off all over his face, killing hundreds of innocent bystanders... Had to say, sorry for the offtopic, but just shows they prolly should keep spying on us.

It looks very good. Acouple of common mistakes though. First of all the arms are too small. Reached to their full length his fingertips should be half way to the knee leaving a space of the size of his hand there. The feet seem a bit too small, I guess. And his shoulders are very board. I'm not sure if you want to make him look hulk-likem but he looks very strong.

I think all of us have been through all this before like 20 times, so I'll let you argue and stay out of the thread from this moment on, nothing new here.

Ok, third time's the charm. Opera crashed twice while I was writing this post. Anyway, it's hard to make a list. There were so few that I really bought, and most of them were older than 2006. 2005 on the other hand was an awesome year. But this'll give a direction of somekind.

0,5 Pure Reason Revolution - The Dark Third (added later, bought it after my post)
1. The Flower Kings - Paradox Hotel
2. TikTak - Myrskyn Edellä
3. Tasavallan Presidentti - Six Complete
4. Bunnymilk - Pulse
5. Dream Theater - Octavarium (this was -06, right?)
6. Magenta - Home
7. Deep Purple - Rapture of the Deep
8. Velislav Ivanov - Under Dark Skies
9. Lordi - Arockalypse
10. Dunno

Use it before you lose it!

There's my motto when it comes to money. Think of it, you have say, 500 euors on your account. You buy some food, some beer, some more beer, and whoops, it's gone. When you could have bought, say something useful, like a used minibus vokswagen that smells like pot.

Well yeah, I could easily fit 30Gb of music there from my albums and my hard drive, but I don't see the point. I don't travel that much. If I went away for a year, I'd just get an external hard drive and put my music there, then find a cheap way of playing them.


Ok, there are smaller iPods, but still any other product with the sam size is cheaper. with macs, the thing is always the price for me. The Price.

I agree with Pete. Though I've never heard of banning Finland t-shirts, but it must be if the school has a number of skinheads or so who all have the same t-shirt. Meaning, they've got a case of racists who keep those shirts as their logos or something, and that's why they're banned. I reckon that's basically what happened to the Thor things. Certain people start wearing them, and suddenly people gave them a second look.

Yeah, but the thing is, his mother wasn't that good, really

Ah, this is fun! For the first cover, I would expect some sort of Creedish emo, for the second cover I would expect some sort of brit/surf pop. For the third cover, I would expect some electro/synth/industrial mojo. I don't know these bands, so these are wild shots.

My thoughts exactly

Ok, this is a biggie, and I was wondering if anyone here could give me new ideas.

Some of you remember, I was in Spain, well Ibiza working at this German hotel for a month and a half, quit for some er... misunderstandings and left. This was during mittens. Anyway, my wage was 700e/month + accomodation and food, not a bad deal if you don't mind eating bad food and Romanians listening to house next door and a broken toilet. Still, I got pissed in my eye. I let them know I wanted to leave because of my employee, and they gave me 350 euros to cover my wage after they took off 2 weeks of practise and 2 weeks of who knows what. Then I left. I assume they covered some of my travel expenses, at least they said so.

The problem is, this is all on my account at Banco Santander central hispano or something. hear this. A month after I got home I got a letter stating I had 330 e on my account. So I contacted my employee and he said he'd take care of the transfer and the rest of the money. Later on he called from the bank, told me he had transferred all the money, the 330 and the expenses to my account in Finland. this was in September I think.

After that I've sent the bank e-mails, in English and in Spanish, none have been answered. I have sent my employee e-mails, they said they'd take care of it just before christmas. I thought they would, but haven't heard anything. earlier I contacted the Finnish consulat and the embassy in vain. All they said was it's between me and my bank. I asked my Finnish bank, and they said they can't do more than what I did. I think they should.

What most annoys me is, that even though money transfer should be easy now that I have all IBANs and SWIFTs and EU and all, but I see my only solution right now as travelling to Spain to ask the man at the counter. But then, I did that in Ibiza, and the guy didn't speak any English, imagine, in a place full of English people. Ok, so a 500 euros isn't that much, but for a student without a job it is. I could for example pay for the expenses of the trip back to my dad. But I'm hopeless. I even got someone to translate my e-mails to Spain since my English mails weren't answered.

So I was wondering if someone had any ideas at all how to get my belongings back without having to travel abroad, that's another 250 again, and then getting back the money would be kind of useless. If anyone has experience in banking policies or knows of such situations, or is willing to help me at all, well, I couldn't think of any other place after nearly 6 months. The bank doesn't even send me information related to my account.

The latter I can't believe the first one is R-rated and not viewable by everyone, it's not like it's porn or anything.

Hehey, I found this video with the two most beautiful celebrities together. although the latter serves her name better in this, anyway.

why do I always get perverted illusions when people speak of bending down... I tell you what, do as you should do, and give it a go, try it yourself, and then post it here. That's what this is for basically. You might want to try thinks like mirror, or games with such animations. Some movies have movement that could help you in slo-mo. But I doubt anyone's going to do it for you, but we're most willing to help on fixing something.

Or just show why I was annoying and they'll believe you : Or please don't, I'm not proud of it, even though it werent' that bad. I think.

EDIT: AT ManicMatt: hey, I'm gay enough myself, I have nothing against homosexuals, otherwise I'd be a hypocrite.

yeah, I meant the singing being very much like APP, not the lyrics. And yeah, just wanted to know of the process of making this.

[CELEBRATING MY COMING TO THE AGE OF 1000 POSTS!]

You asked for it. So here's me CELEBRATING MY COMING TO THE AGE OF 1000 POSTS! by posting a picture of my babyface from last summer in hot black Ibiza sleeping it off. Pff, spamming sure makes you tired!

hehe, would this be like Thriller-stuff? I think I might give it a shot next week if I find time!

Yeah, I meat like Michael Jackson - Thriller thing, but I'm not going to be able to enter

And on the other hand, they are people who PAY for this and keep it up for us, so they have a right to torture us once in a while.

Just wanted to ask, I know you're a Marillion-APP geek... So the lyrics are very much APP influenced, obviously, and as you said at the site there. And then Marillion can be heard clearly, I wanted to know if you aknowledged that while writing or if it just came along the way and you noticed it after composing?

Also, I've been listening to this a lot and like it ever more. Even played some for my brother and he said the singing is great!
