    Anyone here that I could exchange a few Amazon.co.uk gift certificates for cash with? I'll throw in a year of SPS for your trouble. PM me if interested!

    That's Bluff or Intimidate, depending on the intent.

    Profession (politician) works too. :D

    No, but I might have a few McDonalds coupons that I'd be willing to sell you if you want those instead. :p

    Useless fun fact: After randomly browsing IMDB (yeah I do that sometimes) I found out that the same guy who voices Sarevok also voices Sebastien the fish in Kingdom Heart. Somehow that made laugh. I kept imagining Sarevok as a fish... that would've made a short game.

    Maybe not . . . a soulless, magic using fish is nothing to sneer at. Sarevok, the Killer Carp. Has a nice ring to it. :p

    I hate writer's block. I can't seem to produce a single quality line of dialogue. :bang:

    @Tal
    Just read your message about zone unlocking. I bought a player that plays everything. All blue ray zones, all dvd zones and eveyy thing I could throw at it. It also turned my monitor I use with the dish box into what amounts to a smart tv! One of the best buys I ever made. I'm still goiing to try your suggestion later tonight too. Thanks.

    Just tried your suggestion but the old player is just too old. Oh well, still a good idea and glad to know zone free is possible on some zone 1 players!

    Well I've visited the end of this thread a couple times today and couldn't really think of anything to say. I don't have any old DVD players and I haven't done much exciting in the last couple of days. I ate chicken for supper. It was pretty good.

    Perhaps writers block is just a sign that there is no need to write anything? =)

    Tell that to the people expecting results.

    "The Universe is telling me not to write!"

    Yeah, I totally see that one going well.

    I'll give it a shot right after "The dog ate my only copy of the script!"

    My "chewy" granola bar is crunchy - should I be worried? I doesn't taste stale or anything ...

    I have a solution for your writers block Kenneth - get very very drunk and write a blog and post it here! If is doesn't help the writers block it will at least give us a laugh :D.

    There was a study that showed alcohol consumption aids creativity ... unfortunately the aid in creativity comes surprisingly close to the point where alcohol consumption aids stupidity....
