Hi FA! Been a long time Just popping in to let everyone know that I am still alive and doing well. Hope you are all doing great as well! Maybe I will get the itch and pop into a server here and there to say hello! You never really leave the F|Amily!

I live about 45 minutes west of Boston and man I gotta tell you. I was just watching some wackjob's video on his conspiracy theories about the bombing and it made me sick. I can't believe that there are people like him out there. His "evidence" was completely wrong. You could see that tons of video comments had been removed, the only comments that remained were the one's that agreed with him (real objective journalism there). I knew I could post this and find some sane discussion as I have met a lot of level headed normal people in this clan. My work complex is in the same area where they stationed the command center in the mall parking lot. By far the strangest phone call I have ever received from work came on Friday at 5:30 a.m. when they told us not to go in because the area around work was on lockdown as they hunted the suspects.

Just to point out one other thing... Death you brought up the Social Security Administration as having purchased 174,000 rounds of ammunition. While that is true, the rounds were purchased for their investigators who have full police powers and need to be armed when they walk into the houses of those individuals committing fraud against the system. The conspiracy theorists love to say it is due to arming themselves against civil unrest, it's simply not true When you take the 174,000 rounds and divide it by the 66 or so agents that is around 2,600 rounds per investigator. Given how much time they spend on qualifications and range time to practice, that probably leaves each officer with around 500 rounds available for "duty" (for the year). That's if they only do the minimum required range & qualification time... Just felt it was necessary to point that out because I hate conspiracy theories and how they become tools in an argument about a real subject. When it comes to the point of this topic I say "screw 'em, they want out then let 'em out" I live in one of the most liberal states in the country so take that as you will. Anyone who thinks Romney gave a sh** about anyone who makes under $100,000 needs to get their head checked. I am not saying Obama is without flaws, it just always comes down to the lesser of two evils... We need strong education, and the rich can certainly afford to give back to the nation that allowed them to gain that wealth. Romney did not have a footing on either of those issues. Now it all comes into wasteful spending and all that other jazz to clean up the debt but it should be a multi-pronged effort. I worked in public accounting and if you could even see all the tax breaks that our rich counterparts are allowed to take it would make you sick to your stomach. I like Dare's method anyways. There were some members that wanted to secede a while back, he banned them all

Nice set up man. That wood must have great tone on it. I would like to upgrade to something like that someday but for now I can't play well enough to justify owning that. It would be like owning a Porsche and being a woman driver. (Just kidding Baska, Country Girl, Alexandra, and the 100's of other girls I just offended)

Pings all went crazy and then PB kicked us all one by one. Restart? Not killbox. meant HC

Happy New Year F|A Clan!!! Looking forward to another great year!

I just set his level to 9 on HC server.

Now if only that headline read "Kim Jong II and his son are dead after a murder suicide pact". Then the people of N. Korea would actually be able to live a life free from oppression and the people of S. Korea could live a life without the constant fear of attack.

Yup he is right! Right click the ET icon and select "run as administrator" ez peazy

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Happy Birthday =F|A=! Here's to many more to come!!

RIP Abner. You will be missed.

They are having the same protest in Boston. We saw it last night when we were out in the financial district. It was pretty peaceful and small though.

Congrats fellas! Well deserved!!

any idea when the admin will be back up? I will throw a donation in soon, gotta wait till I get paid!!

Too bad everytime I try to play ET now it always says "failed pure server check". I haven't been able to get on for months...

+100. Glad to hear it man!

People always say that about AMD. My argument is that most people/programs don't even come close to utilizing the full potential of any new chip. I will always buy AMD. Always have and always will. In my opinion I think they are better and they are much more reasonably priced. With Intel you pay double for the name. AMD's prices prove that.
