WISHFUL DRINKING on Broadway - Official Site - Roundabout Theatre Company at Studio 54
"The Story Legendary actress, author and tabloid sensation Carrie Fisher boldly takes her sensationally bizarre life story to the Broadway stage. In Wishful Drinking, Carrie divulges all the highs and lows of life as a Hollywood princess, including her battles with depression, mental illness and any number of addictions, affairs and breakdowns...and whatever else she can still remember...." - WorldofHiglet from Bookmarklet

Carbonite, hands down. - Haggis (Sean Loyless) from IM
What does Carbonite do? - Lindsay
It's a map replacement, level guide, and merchant tracker. It helped me get to 80 in 12 /played days. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Ah, that's for PvP servers. Notifies you when enemy factions are near. You can turn it off. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Ahhh ok. How do you turn it off? There's no x... - Internet's Tad
Near the map there should be a "C" that will bring up the options panel. You'll have to look in there for the disable. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

given to all characters on an account with an active authenticator. http://www.wowhead.com/... - Kamala Whitaker
He's so cute!!!! He sits up and begs, he barks, he digs a hole and unburies a bone then the other head fights for the bone, and he rolls over. - Kamala Whitaker
Yeah, the corehound pup is really cute. :D - Arlan Koizumi from FreshFeed
The ground turns white when he digs a hole and finds his bone. When I first saw it, I thought he was pooping lightning :D - Victor Ganata
I love him! He's freaking adorable! - Miriella
WANT!! But I really only want an Android version of the Authenticator. Don't want yet another thing to have to keep up with. - Internet's Tad
Thought about getting a keyfob but if I do, is it too late to get the pup?? - Lindsay
Works on the iPod Touch too if you have one. - Haggis (Sean Loyless)

Teacher is hot for Teacher. WTF? - Internet's Tad from Bookmarklet
That's hawt. - Internet's Tad
I can't believe HuffPo linked to the students' FB group. - Spidra Webster
Probably the best source of information as well as misinformation! - Internet's Tad
Ohfergodsake. They're teachers, not nuns - otoh - I guess they shoulda got a room ... - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF from iPhone
Apparently the students were the only sources willing to talk to the Daily News. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)

Mary Carmen
What is your favorite candy?
Anything sour, but my fave is: http://www.amazon.com/Candy-S... - Mary Carmen
First things I thought of were Milka chocolate with hazelnuts and Everlasting Gobstoppers. - Chris Z.
Reese's Peanuyt Butter Cups - Alex Scoble
Chocolate almonds - Shey, Jamaican of FF
Sweet Tarts or root beer barrels - aden
I'm with the Scoble. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. OMNOMNOM - josh neff, geek at large
peanut butter cups are awesome - Mary Carmen
I'm guessing 'anything dark chocolate' is too broad a range :D - Shannon
It's a tie for Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Milk Duds. - Jennifer Dittrich
Nerds, Bottlecaps, Sweet-Tarts...that kind of thing. peanut m&ms aren't bad. - Joe Silence is not dead
Grand Marnier Truffles from Stephany's Chocolates. Oh so good. http://www.stephanyschocolates.com/truffle... - Steve
From a chocolatier: a really good vanilla butter cream. Mass market: I'm fond of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. My favorite local chocolatier: http://www.debrand.com/ - Katy S
Dark Chocolate M&M's - MicahBear78
Whatever I'm eating at the time? Pretty much anything with chocolate. - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS
Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker. - Internet's Tad
Tad - you can get candy with liquor in it!! - Katy S
Heath Bar - Stephen Francoeur
dark chocolate.......... - VAL D.
True dark chocolate. Vosges is one awesome fancy brand... And Valentine Runts (which seem to have disappeared, dangit). Bottlecaps, Nerds, and Spree (all non-chewy) are pretty awesome at times, too. And I've become an Australian licorice fiend lately after a lifetime of thinking that I hated licorice. But dark chocolate reigns supreme. - Kamilah Gill
Chocolate, probably pb cups. - Derrick
Peanut M&Ms, right now they are doing my favorite ever pack with only Green and Reds. *heaven* - Rasmus Lauridsen
Rolos - Rodfather
I will now have the Rolo jingle on an endless loop in my head for the next 12 hours. - Mary Carmen
reeses peanut butter cups and skittles would never be eaten if they were in my house..... - VAL D.
Licorice, followed by Cherry Tangy Taffy and Abba Zabba. And if we're going to name-drop premium chocolates, I would give up sex forever for the white-chocolate-covered maple caramels from Mendocino Chocolate Company. http://www.mendocino-chocolate.com/ - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
It would be far easier to ask me what I don't like (since it's a must shorter list), but I'd probably say it's a tie between Skor Bars and really good New Zealand black licorice. But rollos and PB cups really rank up there too. - Meredith
Mr. Goodbar. Nomnomnomnomnom. - teh Dork Knight aka Kenny
Sour skittles and sour nerds currently. I used to be really into Chocolate (snickers and whatchamacallits) as a teenager. - Arlan Koizumi
anything Reese's. - ~Courtney F.
Snickers bars - Abigail
Snickers. - Parth Awasthi
Your mom. - Kendra <3 Three Lions
Kendra wins. - josh neff, geek at large
o_O @Kendra ROFLMAFAO - Junebug (aka Sarah Jill)
favorite candy? Almond Roca. No contest. - Morgan Haley
tootsie rolls - Scott
Anything involving chocolate, especially dark chocolate. - John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Sort of parcel to eye candy but that might not be appropriate in this forum - L Stephen Cleary
Stephen, I was waiting for that response ;-) - Mary Carmen
Hurrah - Have a Beautiful day :->) - L Stephen Cleary
Bissingers or See's rasberry or vanilla cremes. Or See's maple cremes. Dark, of course. Bissinger's is mostly St. Louis, but they're also online and, I'm told, the house chocolate at Bloomingdales. - MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF from iPhone
Trader Joe's 72% Cacao Dark Chocolate bars (from Belgium)--and at three 1.65oz. (47g) bars for $1.50 or so, they're a cheap indulgence as well. (But my wife--who eats them more than I do--sez "They're not candy, they're dark chocolate." She doesn't do candy.) - Walt Crawford
I like a Lindt 70% or 75% bar, but if you rule out chocolate, then I'd say Nerds. (Oh, and Five Star Bars are nice too.) - Andrew C
:( i gave up candy soo long ago, i forgot, :( - chaz2b
Either licorice or jujubes, not sure which would be my #1. - Kenton
Swedish Fish - Jason Huebel
Caramel chocolate turtles - james
Snickers! - nakachi
Jolly Ranchers but nothing cherry and Turkish Delights - Gabrielle V
milk chocolate xoxo - anjelina
If I could have only one food for the rest of my life? That's easy. Pez. Cherry-flavored Pez. No doubt about it... - tinypants - Hagitha of FF from FreshFeed
There is no candy - ★ Soner Gönül
candyman - Eren ÖĞRÜL
Not big on sweets but love the sweet salty taste of a PayDay - I don't like chocolate and growing up my favorite was a Big Hunk or Abba Zabba! ;-p - Robyn Hawk
There was this one dancer down at the Bottoms Up club... I kid, I *kid*... - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS

Post the most interesting (funny or cool) guild names you've seen in this thread.
and Two Stealthed Rogues <-- starting with Tad's favorite - Lindsay

My two faves are still Grand Theft Kodo and Gnome Depot. Both on Silvermoon. :D - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
My old guild on Eitrigg was Less Than Three <3 :D - Jonas, Leper of FF
Two Gnomes One Cup - Christian (Simply X)
My favorite is actually <and two stealthed rogues> Great guild name on a PvP server! - Internet's Tad
Gnomercy, Gnomeland Security, Counter Tauren Unit. I don't know any Horde ones that would qualify. - Arlan Koizumi
A couple of Horde ones that I've seen that made me LOL: BloodBath and Beyond, Eat Crit and Die - Victor Ganata
Horrible but funny: Fat Kids R Slow In RL - Haggis (Sean Loyless) from Android
I've always liked Grand Theft Kodo also. :D - Laura H.
Your Mother's a Horde - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
Unhand My Sasquatch - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
BRB My Goat is on Fire - Gunny doesn't side-hug™

From a screenshot I just saw: <Seal Cub Clubbers Club> - Jonas, Leper of FF
Internet's Tad
Tad's Prediction of the Day: The Joo Joo tablet/Crunchpad will fail miserably and will be forgotten within 6 months.
I think you're being generous. - Jim Hearts FF
That long? - Andrew Leyden
At 500 bucks, especially... - Bill Kinney
$500?? Really? They'll be luck to sell ONE for that amount. All it does is browse web pages, right? Does it do Silverlight, Flash, etc? - Internet's Tad from fftogo
There is space in my life for a tablet device, however I need it to do more than the web. If Apple releases an OSX or iPhone based competitor I would consider paying $500, but not for a web-only device. - Sparky
I'll pay $800 or $900 for a proper tablet. But it must do eReader, eMagazine, games, basically everything the iPod Touch does plus more. - Internet's Tad from fftogo
Derrick
Do you have a best friend?
Yes. - Alex Scoble
Yes. - Mary Carmen
Yes. I actually have several. - Sparky
Yep! I have 2. Sadly, they both live far away. - Admiral Anika
I have two! I'm lucky like that. - Bren, Not Grinchy
Yes; just wish he lived closer - JA Castillo
yes, i married her 11 years ago. - Joe Silence is not dead
I did. :-( - Trish R
No. I used to, but he ditched me about 8 months ago. Currently accepting applications for replacement. Have lots of really good friends, tho, which is nice (really nice, I love them all), but I miss having the bubble of it. - Sarah G.
I guess so, I used to have a true one in high school, but then he just left one day and I haven't heard from him since. I have some that I consider really close friends, but no one I think I can put at best friend. - Mathew™ one of a kind
Want one but haven't had one since the early '90s. - Spidra Webster
*sniff* I have two, but they're about to be really far away - Thursday Lo :)
Yes, a couple. - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS
not really. my old one got tired of me and i sort of hate saying my partner is my best friend even though it's probably accurate. - Kendra <3 Three Lions
Yes. - Jim Hearts FF
Akiva! - Rochelle
I have in the past, but right now, there isn't one person in particular that I'd call my *best* friend. I have a lot of very very good friends, though. - josh neff, geek at large
I don't think I do. I have a lot of friends whom I love dearly -- a lot of them through FF, etc. -- but no one is at the top of that list. I don't know if they makes me sad or not. - Derrick
Ummm yeah - been married 13.5 years! :D - Internet's Tad
Yeah Niels, he's been there always. Even if I'm crap at picking up the phone and calling he never ever lets me know. He just knows that that's me so he is there. He was there when my mother had cancer. When I went into the dumps for a bit, he pulled me up and helped me find a job and get going again. I really don't deserve such a great friend but I am super happy that I do have him. - Rasmus Lauridsen
Yes. My husband is truly my best friend. But I'll fill out an app to be Sarah's new female best friend. - Junebug (aka Sarah Jill)
Yes - Steve
yes - VAL D.
my wife - Bill Kinney
Two - one I've known since we were 5, the other since high school. - Penguin It's Cold Outside from fftogo
Yes, two, and both live so far away from me, it's almost unbearable sometimes. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
Yeah, he lives in DC. He was my best man, god father to my eldest and his dad is my son's doctor - RAPatton from iPhone
I have two, neither of them live in Texas. It sucks - aden
Definitely, my partner is my best friend. - Sam Carlson
Now, I want a best friend! I feel incomplete. :( - Derrick
yes. and i have a partner who is a close runner-up. bff and i have known each other since we were 12. - tiffany
I sure do... Two actually - Marissa
Because I'm a greedy girl I have 3. - pea from fftogo
Does my fiance count? - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
My husband. - Judy Jones
Yep - we've been best friends since early high school. - Jennifer Dittrich
I guess not. A lot of lifelong friends though. - Rodfather
I have one person I think I'd classify as a best friend outside of a relationship. My best friend Jameel has had the title since he moved in next door to me when I was 6 years old. We've been like peas and carrots for thirty years. Crazy. I still speak with him at least once a week. - Cheryl
Yep. - Laura Lou Who
hee! peas and carrots. me and my homie are more like PB&J or ham and cheese :-) - tiffany
yup - AJ Batac
No, I have a few - Shevonne
Okay maybe peas and carrots is little tame. We're more like...like...hot apple pie and ice cream? Cookies and cream? Chocolate cookies and milk? Great...now I'm hungry. - Cheryl
My wife. - Mark H
Not anymore. - cecily
I used to. - Kol Tregaskes
Maybe two - maxilprof
Jesus, the gardener. of souls. - Morgan Haley
Yep, maybe, I don't know. Do the ones in my head count? - Jimminy
I don't know if I have a best friend or not. There's one guy that knows everything about me and my past, but he lives in Berlin most of the time. Then there's another guy that knows almost everything about me and my past, and we hang out a lot. - Morgan Haley
So I guess it would depend on the definition really. does a best friend need to know EVERYthing about me and my past? - Morgan Haley
I married mine. - Jeremy (cropmarks)
No. My daughter has a problem understanding that. All people have best friends, she says. - Baard @ Pixum
complicated... I have 3 very good friends from childhood on, but I won´t consider them as "best friends". there´s always someone closer for a period of 2 or 3 years. usually my life changes then, and I exchange my whole little universe and the bestest friend with it. (somehow creepy, I know..) - esther ♥ ♫
@Baard, Freya seems like your best friend to me :) - Michael W. May
No. - Nine
no, not anymore. some close friends, but not any one best friend. - holly
Yes. - Melanie Reed
if I enumerated all my friends (all 4 of them), and ranked them in some order, one of them would be better than the others. In that sense, yes, I have a best friend ;) In the colloquial "bff" sense, I don't really think so. - DJF
First name "Tiny," second name "pants," although she goes by many other names. :) - Jenny R.
Akiva! - Akiva Moskovitz
but of course - L Stephen Cleary
Yes. - Jason Huebel
...with benefits. - sofarsoShawn
Yep. - Alix Whitmire
No. - Mo Kargas
My wife is my best friend in general. I don't have any really close best guy friends anymore. - Give 'Em DBizness
No, I have a Hetero Lifemate though. - Rob Haas
I said "yes" before, but I have to admit I haven't had a best friend since I moved back from NYC. Rob mentions having a "hetero lifemate" and I suppose that's what Paul was. *feeling lonely* - Jason Huebel
Of Course..! - ★ Soner Gönül
Yes, though he's currently living on the East Coast. My second best friend lives there as well. - Jack (a.k.a. Jeber)
oh! I totally have a best friend! a couple of them! there's my girl Elizabeth back on the east coast. and there's my friend Chris (with whom I have been friends with since 1st grade!) - Nathalie, Dreamer of FF

Fwd: Day 10 of P90 is DONE! Sculpt 1-2 this time! I managed to do a few pushups on my toes (yeah I'm a wuss)!! Very happy to see progress. Need to resume working out in the mornings. Gonna be hell tomorrow. (via http://friendfeed.com/tad...)
I have found that working out at 8:30PM makes it nearly impossible for me to get up to work out again at 5:30. Ugh. - Internet's Tad

From fat to gym rat, woman loses 200 pounds - CNN.com - http://www.cnn.com/2009...
From fat to gym rat, woman loses 200 pounds - CNN.com
"These days, Becky Griggs starts her morning well before the sun comes up, in time to meet her clients at the gym at 5:30. It's a big change from six years ago, when she was 352 pounds and, as she calls it, engaged in a "slow form of suicide." She said that growing up, she was always the pudgy kid, but in hindsight, she was only slightly overweight. In her mind, though, she was a fat girl. "We are taught what is slim and skinny and pretty and right," she said recently by phone, "but in reality, what is fit and healthy is a different thing." Positive self-image means a lot, she said, and it has been the key to her losing more than 200 pounds." - William Harryman from Bookmarklet
" How she lost it: "Calories in versus calories out," she said. Like many overweight people, she had a bookshelf of diet plan books. But she needed to go back to what she called a super-simple plan of five small meals a day, focused on protein and something "God grew." About 80 percent of what she ate to lose weight was protein. Weight loss success stories Sugar and flour were out. She... more... - William Harryman
nice - Shevonne
She had to have had surgery to remove excess skin. It's just not possible to lose 200 pounds yet have skin that tight. - Rochelle
True. and is anyone else sick of the 'I lost weight by eating less and exercising more' stories? - Morgan Haley
Well, I'm less sick of those stories than "I drank XX and worked out for only 5 minutes a day." - Kevin Pedraja
Rochelle, it depends on age and genetics - some people do have very elastic skin that shrinks as they do, if it isn't too fast, others do need surgery to tighten it up - William Harryman
Lindsay had tons of loose skin when she lost a lot of weight years ago. Surgery is just too damned expensive (and obviously not covered by any insurance). - Internet's Tad
lot of dedication ,,, which is both physical and mental ,, encouraging - johnpiercy
Spidra Webster
"Gaylene Meadows wears little black tops again. Cecilia Marosi lost her pregnancy pounds. David Ferrari's pants size went from 34 to 31. Mike Mainiero shed 19 pounds, and Mia Gates rediscovered her stunning cheekbones. Five friends, all fighting weight gain after 40, had their final weigh-in recently at Fitness 101 gym in Menlo Park after a six-week Thinner Winner challenge, which The Chronicle followed, to see who could lose the greatest percentage of body weight. Unlike their first trip to the scale, this time they lit up in smiles when trainer Mark Lipanski balanced the sliding weights. Ultimately, there was a tie. Meadows, who lost 11.5 pounds, edged out Mainiero, by losing one hundredth of a percent more of her total body weight. They split the $300 jackpot. Meadows said she was going to rush over to her favorite restaurant for chocolate fudge mocha cake. Mainiero said salad, then admitted probably also a glass of wine. "This represents 5 pounds of fat in weight and volume,"... more... - Spidra Webster from Bookmarklet
Some dude wore 34 waist pants and thought he needed to lose weight? WTF? 31 is like waifish on a man. Maybe he's 5' 1" or something... :D :P - Internet's Tad
Yeah, when I saw the before picture I thought some of them didn't need to lose anything, but it's their body - their decision. It could be that they "lost" it by just toning up and putting it someplace else. There are plenty of Americans who are slim but not fit (which is part of the reason I hate the assumption that fat is not fit. I have known some fat people who work out a helluva lot more than some thin people I know and could whip ass in a sprint). - Spidra Webster
Very true Spidra. There's a rather rotund Aikido sensei who could kick most of our asses any day. :) - Internet's Tad
34 waist would be quite amazing for me. It's been a few years since I fit anything close to that. - Morgan Haley
If all you need to lose is 11lbs, then big whoop that you did it in 6 weeks. It doesn't make that much difference in your appearance or health if that's all you've got to lose. I've lost about 8 times more than that before and unfortunately have a lot more than 11lbs to lose again. Believe me, I know what a difference losing (and gaining) lots of weight really makes in your lifestyle,... more... - Lindsay
I'd have to look up the rest of the series to be sure, but I think it was just a story about a group of friends who decided to make a pact to lose weight together. I think talking about pretty average people instead of people who are seriously obese is actually a bit of a change. It makes average people examine themselves instead of just thinking of "those fat people" needing to watch... more... - Spidra Webster
Tad, I'm a 31 inch waist, and I'm 6' 1" tall at 198 lbs - William Harryman
Ok William - maybe I'm just so far from fit that 34" sound ridiculously thin to me. :) And I guess my 38" waist is probably enviable for some folks much larger than me. So, I'll just leave it at me just being jealous and whining. :) - Internet's Tad
keep doing the P90X, and be good with your diet, you'll be surprised at what you can accomplish - William Harryman
Wow, William...I am 6'-0" and 196 lbs, but with a 34" waist (give or take an inch due to holiday cooking)... - JA Castillo
When I played football, I was 6'2" and 235 with a 35" waist. I'm hovering just under 40 right now. If I would just work out and eat better, I could probably get back to a 36 pretty easily. - ha3rvey (needs soup)
JA, part of it is genetics, by nature I'm a skinny guy (about 160 lbs when I played soccer), small-boned and narrow hips - but I've been busting my ass for years to build muscle and stay lean, so I've put on about 40 lbs of muscle over a decade or so - at 42 yrs old, I'm more fit than I was at 18 - William Harryman
Generally thin on my end, but not doing myself favors with my diet and generally slack exercising habits. Kudos to you and your fitness level @ 42! :) - JA Castillo
One of my goals is to be more fit at 41 than I've ever been. We'll see how that goes. Not sure it'll be saying much since I've never been particularly fit! :) - Internet's Tad

Good luck with Patch 3.3 fun guys! I have two more hours before I can go home and have fun with Patch chaos.
Same here. With as quiet as this room has been for the past 30 mins, I'm assuming the servers are up. :D - Haggis (Sean Loyless) from IM
So far, no horrible bugs, etc. BUT I just ported to Dal... :o - Internet's Tad
Can't even get in - Gunny doesn't side-hug™
We have a 25M ToC scheduled for tonight at 8 server - if the servers are stable enough tonight, we're gonna try for an Icecrown raid. The last time we tried a raid on a patch night, people's bodies were stuck in Ulduar for hours with no way out...lol. - Miriella
So, we made it to the first boss! Wiped fascinatingly on some trash once, maybe twice. And promptly got omgwtfpwnt by the server boss. We had two shots at him, and then locked up, and then some people had to go, so we just called it for the evening. Had a really nice new necklace drop off trash, at least. And was fun. - Miriella

Ok, I am creeped out... Just got an email from someone asking to use a picture of my son from 1st grade on their MySpace page. No link to the page for me to inspect it either... Um, that's a 'NO'....
I can only think of nefarious reasons for wanting the picture, but weird to ask instead of just taking it if that's the case... - Lindsay
how werid. - pea
Call the FBI. That can only be bad. - MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
@pea - I agree! - Lindsay
Not good. I would call the cops. - AJ Batac
But why would they ask to use it if it was something bad? Wouldn't that basically be like asking me to get authorities involved? I'm confused... - Lindsay
My impression is that it's not something bad. There's no telling. I'd ignore the request and maybe hide the picture in flickr. - Internet's Tad
You can hide it now Tad. No guarantee he already saved it. - AJ Batac
Did they say why? I wonder if it's something not bad, since they did ask. I think I'd respond and say no, but also ask why. - Rochelle
creepy - VAL D.
Very odd... especially since they didn't provide more context / background. - Herb Hernandez
*furrows brow* This is weird. - Kamilah Gill
I responded saying that I didn't want my son's picture being used somewhere that I didn't have control of since it was a privacy issue. They emailed back and said they'd respect my privacy. Still creeped out about it though. - Lindsay
Weird - Shevonne
I say good decision, L. I think the fact that said person didn't show the picture but asked shows a good intention but a lack of tech savvyness, which is also a bit disconcerting. Default settings being as open as they are in most networks, it makes me feel like the person wouldn't necessarily understand what they were sharing and who they were sharing it with. - Holly Rae, FFer

Why Does China Copy Designs? | Futurelab - http://www.futurelab.net/blogs...
"Similar to Japan, copying is only the first step. Once they learn about the inner workings of how things are done the sky’s the limit. One of my ex-colleagues recounted a story about a Chinese Manufacturer proudly showing him a 100% perfect copy of a German MRI machine at 1/10 of the price and a large contract with all the local hospitals. AN MRI MACHINE! Think about this for a moment." - Micah Wittman from Bookmarklet
very strong cultural imperative - in my experience Chinese entrepreneurs are driven by the need to make a product as good but at a fraction of the cost: it's an obsession. If they're good now, when the country eventually turns to innovation they'll be a powerful force - winckel
A country which stifles freedom to the extent that China does will never truly embrace innovation. - Internet's Tad
Don't see the cultural imperative for innovation- intricate wonderful copies are still somebody elses idea It still all goes aground with peak oil - WarLord

Gaming Market To See 3D Growth Says Insight Media - http://www.cedailynews.com/2009...

Not a chance in hell with current technology. I'll be VERY surprised to see gamers buy special glasses to use while playing games. - Internet's Tad

it does, actually... you can filter out all but the dungeons and craft items that you can make/get, and then tell it to also filter by item level. it'll also show you better talent choices and spell rotation. I used it for leveling, works great - mjc

:( but damn if that hair doesn't look great! ;) - Josh Haley
For infections: eat as much as you can, preferably in light - to mid hearty soups, this serves the dual purpose of keeping you nourished as well as keeping you hydrated to promote the cleanse of the infection. As well, drinking as much as you can, through teas, but preferably more vitamin enriched juices ~ these are dependent on how much you can hold down. & Hell yeahzz you are one put together invalid :)) - sofarsoShawn

Some people are weird. Some people play WoW. Some People roleplay. this is the combination of the three, on Moonguard.

this is typical - mjc
Wow. Sounds...like I'm better off never joining an RP server. :P - Jon, the Beartato of FF
yes. - mjc
I've played on RP WoW servers. They're actually not at all like the picture. It's pretty much the same as other WoW servers, just with fewer assholes and NO really stupid names (because they're against the RP rules). - Internet's Tad
yeah, what Tad said. - holly
So no toons named Buttplugjr? - Christian (Simply X)
Not if you report them. I reported TONS of misnamed toons back in the day - and the admins made them change their names. - Internet's Tad
I've played on an RP server since near launch. The GMs were responsive back in the day before TBC to change names. Not so much nowadays. It's pretty sad that all this ERP/Cybersex crap gets all the limelight, and some people being ignorant and thinking this is what RP servers are all about. While it exists, those ERP/Cyber stuff are far from the norm (at least on the server I'm on,... more... - Arlan Koizumi

Thanks, tinypants. Although I'd probably have fun doing WoW or SL, with my RSI I'd be crazy to start up with it. - Spidra Webster
The UI can be modded and customized according to what you want. You can turn off lots of the default settings, but to really alter the UI, placing frames in different areas and such, you have to get 3rd party mods. - Arlan Koizumi

What is the little shirt icon with the arrow at the top right? That's where my equipment manager is but yours is on the left... - Lindsay
outfitter is on the right, so it moves the equipment manager to the left. outfitter makes up for the massive failure that is the blizzard one, with the added benefit of using the blizzard one to store your equipment sets. - mjc
Isn't that a really high gear score for a 79? If so, how'd you get all the cool stuff before 80? - Internet's Tad
Outfitter... is it just another plugin? I was so excited when I found the equipment manager! - Lindsay
Lol! I just noticed the Gear Score when Tad asked - that's super high - that's like ToGC gear, if not higher! I think there's a Gear Score addon, which is totally different from the numbers that wow-heroes.com provides. Not sure what the differences are or what this addon does. - Miriella
It's a slightly different formula because the guy apparently didn't know wow-heroes.com existed and didn't want to rip their formula off. It inflates wow-heroes.com scores by about 100%. wow-heroes.com says it's 1314: http://wow-heroes.com/index... - Mark Trapp
