Well, the files are fine and I got the drivers updated, to no avail. I'm disappointed, because it's damn fine at the moments it holds up. It's when there are a bunch of enemies or an in-engine facial animation that the problem starts.

My dad, who was born in London, would have been three when this was taken. He was quite saddened by how it's changed.

The last male white rinoceros died today. The last two females of the species are now patiently awaiting extinction.

That sucks. Couldn't some.organization extract semen from the animal and ovules from one of the females and then implant them on other rhinos or something?

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?

They tried. It is not easy to perform IVF on something that big, and their test case was apparently not successful.

I might need to sue the WWF. They told me 25 years ago my donations would save the white rhino.

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.
