Democracy - One of the Best Political Simulation Games Ever 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Democracy, available for a free 60-minute no-limits demo, is without doubt one of the best political simulation game titles, if there are others. I found myself immediately hooked to this 25MB download, and practically fell in love with it.
Now, instead of describing the pros and cons of the game in ... Read more:Games
Steps in studying historical texts 0000-00-00 00:00:00 (Got the idea here; I warn you, this is a "lazy post") Steps in studying
historical texts
:
-- Forget your modern sensibilites.
-- Forget your set of morals.
-- Forget everything they taught you.
-- Don't regard anything, even primary sources (we're talking texts here), as absolute.
-- Remember that everything is subject to interpretation.
-- ...
Isn’t it strange? No, it’s not 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Fundamentalist Christians are still propagating their absolutism in doctrine and dogma, through land and sky, sea and mass media. And look, even my inbox is not immune to their propaganda!
They sicken me; I mean, they're no better than Dawkins-style Atheists! Self-righteous louts who think what they think is unchallengeable, the ...
Zombies and the average person 0000-00-00 00:00:00 After being struck with a bolt of inspiration, I have reached a conclusion on the matter. Zombies
, as how they are depicted in popular culture, are symbolic of the general public. Yes, those rotting walking corpses represent the workaday masses, the proletariat en masse.
Now you could be asking yourself ... Read more:person
Humor is relative 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Do you think I'm a desperate attention-seeking weirdo who spews out "humor"-tagged entries like a photocopying machine broken in a comical yet unrealistic manner?
I say unto you, I must concede to your superior intellect and mind-boggling powers of logical deduction, dear reader! However, there is a flaw in your "correct" ... Read more:Humor

Yet another useless blog update 0000-00-00 00:00:00 "I speak for Saturn, the One True God of All That is Not Within the Grasp of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, when I say that Saturday must be returned to the sovereignty of His Overlord-ship, the S-Man, by placing the -N after the SATUR- in SATURDAY."

Writer’s block 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I'm too drained and anxious to spew out anything of much interest. However, I contradict myself completely as I will now write something of some interest to some people. Let's begin with the term "writer's block

(stJNES) Oji and the wolf 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Inspired by the strangely-written epic that we just recently studied (the Iliad), this is the beginning of a long tale about Oji the Sharp-eyed, King of the Yush'kotai.
