My favorite ones are when they get DNA and court orders in less then 24 hours or when a techie is just able to ZOOM and ENHANCE to get clearer pictures from grainy video footage.

It'd be a bit hard to portray realistic crime-busting as some crimes don't get solved for months at the earliest and some go cold for years before being solved, but does get a bit aggravating when they don't even use the right methods.

Have you considered enrolling your dog in the martial barks? Maybe they will learn some discipline!

And the dog thinks it made you very happy!

He will be disciplined, I can't have an unpredictably violent dog, he must only be violent when it's acceptable. Good that I know he has it in him though, I'm not a fan of hunting but I might train him as a bird dog if he continues to show an aptitude and drive towards hunting. Quail are tastier than chicken after all.

If we don't reflect on those, then we generally repeat the same pattern when we get close to the same types of people. It's often why people's relationship history repeats itself, as they keep dating the same type of person every time and getting the same outcome.
Either way, I hope things get better and you don't give up.

Yeah. I can't imagine befriending a glass. I'll most likely Drop it and be the one to clean it up. Being dropped can't be good for the glass and cleaning it up is a pain in the back.

There are friendships of different levels, they don't all have to be very close. People come together for various needs & some ppl (when their needs change) drop their friends & move to something else.
It's good to keep trying if you have the desire to have a family. Everyone won't be what you're looking for. We all go through the hurt of disappointment.
Dogs are awesome.

There is also a European catfish that regularly grows to more than 140 kilograms, you ever seen one? I've catfisted before; man what a terror. One of those suckers gets hold I'd bet he could take off an entire arm. I mean the 30-50 pounders where I live can really bloody you up as it is, I don't think I'll ever be fishing that way again, knowing some species grow that large.

I want to explore the unknown more than anything else.

@Vance Raehart You mean unknown to you, or unknown period? If the second then hats off to you, I love exploring nature but I don't think I have the balls to explore either space or the deep crags beneath the ocean. To many unknowns, just to scratch the surface of exploring them.

My mom's dog will chew the squeak out of any squeak toy you give him. Except the two piggie toys. The piggie toys are precious and must be chewed only hard enough to make them make noises.

I always loved "indestructible" chew toys, that seemed to be some sort of challenge to the dog to destroy them as quickly as possible.

@taarna23 Weird, my dog also destroyed all his toys except his piggy! (He's actually buried with it, he loved it so much, LOL!)

@Llareian Aw, that's sweet. With my mom's, he's got two different ones - one with a rather distinctive squeak (which is what blew my mom's mind when he didn't chew it to bits) and one that makes more of a piggy noise. He loves both and it's so silly.

There's a lot of construction going on near where I live, but it's mostly overpriced student flats - useless. We need more homes for the average person to live in, not flats to be rented out to students for insane amounts of money. I guess that's how this all works, though.

You've been approached with weird money-making opportunities lately
First the wolves. Now this.
I wonder what you'll hear in May.

@starlight dream I know, right? Makes me feel bad when I think about people like Poryg and my brother who can't seem to catch a break, because I've been there before as well and it sucks. It seems opportunity waits until after you no longer really need it before it bothers knocking, but at that point it knocks quite loudly.

My case it's from 35 years ago

Do actually know how to cook, though we are tragically a rare breed indeed.

@l8rose I didn't do the Barrow Downs thanks to a glitch: I ran all the way to Bree and skipped them. (But from there on Frodo was paralyzed until the end of the game )
I think versus the Balrog, Frodo and Aragorn had to stay alive or the entire party would lose.
It's funny it was a LOTR game that ended at Moria. ^_^

Lucky. It was one of the most irritating levels I've ever played in any game. lol And yeah, you lost if one of them died. It was a really strange idea for a LOTR game. I think they had intended to make a sequel to it but don't know if they ever did.

I'm glad I skipped the level then Or my opinion of the games difficulty would've been harsher Lol

What race of dog is the newbie?

He's another lab, though he is part mutt too since his ears aren't floppy like labs are, but the rest of him is all Labrador. Probably why the other lab likes him, I think the beagle is intimidated because his seniority feels threatened by the new dog being so much bigger than him. He's getting over it through, they played a good 10 minutes earlier before the beagle remembered to snarl.

The beagle is outnumbered by the big Labs. He will soon realize it's not so bad, because he will be the little special one of the group.

They are no worse for farmers than rabbits or deer usually (most farmers 'round here raise cattle, and cattle are fierce). Maybe less pests than deer since they eat deer actually.

It's the rural suburbanites that seem to clash with coyotes the most actually. Since they will scavenge trash, occasionally harm/kill pets and even kids in rare cases. They do breed like nobodies business though, whether they are in a food rich environment or starved for it.

It's true, the trashy lovers, are the ones that come closer to human settlements. Read that as you may.^^

Roof ruining your snuggle times. I love listening to the rain. It makes me feel at peace, and sends me to sleep so quickly.

It could be worse. It could be dripping on the floor, and not coming from the roof, if you know what I mean...

Haha yeah ideals are always much more beautiful than the realities that pursuing them creates.

My ideal is going to be to take some of the money I'll be making and funnel it into my game, maybe I'll hire a team and actually make some leeway here and there in the future.

Yep. People dream of utopias, but know not the the price in blood demanded as tribute.

Well, whether your perspective changes or remains the same, I hope you put that money to good use.

I expect more wolf-related status updates from now.

I think for PS4 you basically have borderlands, battlefield and guitar hero. I recently discovered 7 days to die, a port of a PC game that's basically zombie themed Minecraft and my bro and I, and his kids, and him an his wife have all been playing the hell out of it the last couple weekends. A shame more games don't offer split screen play.

Playing shooter game in split screen is the best! You can see where the other player is hiding. XD

Game sample; SpecialOPS in PS1

Mario Kart is awesome online and on couch with friends

It was the executioner. That early quest to get the ring and he had armor and a nice looking sword and I only had a club and we were alone in the wilds so I knocked him over the head and took his sword.

That was hours and hours ago, now I got a quest from him and he's a ridiculously nice guy so I feel bad.

@Philosophus Vagus Your comment sounds like your testimony in front of the judge.

Just knock out and rob everyone else so he doesn't think you singled him out.

I'll have to try and find a halberd. I want to see how they work in this game. At the moment, I'm just using a sword and shield.

Only people I've seen with them so far are guards, assuming they make their entry into regular combat whenever you start getting enemies and allies on horseback, I'm still just a squire wandering the countryside on his lonesome though.

Ha-Ha! It does a good job of making you feel poor. xD It felt like an achievement when I was able to afford a kettle helmet and a few other things. I'm starting to actually look like a proper man at arms, now.

Don't know how far you are but if you haven't keep doing the main story til captain Bernard trains you then get him to teach you to riposete (master stroke I think it's called) as soon as possible. Combat is much easier once you can do that. It pretty much goes from bandit leaders are impossible to beat without stealth strangling to hunting down all bandits because they are easy money once you get it.

Combat archery is pretty rough for me too, I can handle hay bails, floating logs and animals if I sneak up on them but I always panic, miss and get pummeled to death when trying archery in combat.

I'm too into a more stealth/stab oriented build. I want to avoid facing enemies head on as much as possible in this game. A good strategy I found is run quick to enemies unaware and stab them a few times and flee again lol. I'm not too proud of that v.v

The weird graphical glitches destroy immersion for me, too. Henry's mum had her shoulders and chest constantly glitching through her dress. There were also no textures on certain objects, and when I opened containers they closed. xD Is any of this fixed with that insanely large 23GB update?

I really want to play it, but I'm not sure if I should waste £100 buying the necessary data allowance to download a patch which might not do all that much at all.

I've only seen a couple texture glitches so far, and they snap too fast enough that you might not catch them all so maybe the patch does help a bit there. The worst I saw was during the scene where the guy who killed your parents shows up in the town you flee to and for a couple seconds his platemail was bright purple.

Oh man I always forget to check humble. Brb.

People in (good) relationships get to enjoy them every day. And showing our love is done by the way we treat the other person daily, so Valentine's is pretty pointless.
It feels like a teen holiday when dating isn't all that serious and commercialism hasn't disgusted us yet.
@Sauteed_Onion What you wrote is historically accurate and your diamonds comment true. But it takes a long time for us to learn such things.^^

@Sauteed_Onion Your earlier comments re:Catholicism. We do not allow religious discussion, nor do we want to see whole groups of whatever persuasion insulted. Please do not do this again.
