May be alcohol anyway. From what I recall, pouring out a small measure of booze or setting some aside for the deceased is a pretty old tradition.

Man After Man stuff
I always much preferred After Man: A Zoology of the Future. Focused on animals instead of humans, and while still outlandish had a lot less of the nutty stuff like the genetic memory and ESP from Man After Man. Also it's written more like a fieldbook or something rather than a narrative.

Also the Rabbucks and Predator Rats look cool, and I've always loved these guys, who look a bit like a Pokémon out of your nightmares. There was also a penguin that was also a whale, and a whole island of bats gone horribly wrong.

I personally have many fond memories of Expedition:Being an Account in Words and Artwork of the 2358 A.D. Voyage to Darwin IV. It's perhaps better known as the source material for the Discovery Channel special Alien Planet.

My favorites from it are the Groveback the Rimerunner, and of course the Emperor Sea Strider.

Huh. I could have sworn that the lamp near me came on, just for a brief instant. No sign of it coming back though, so probably just my imagination.

I remember that book! I was always terrified of the bat-ostrich things, though.

I am trying to take what I consider a DF modding molestone and add my first advanced interaction, but its failing pretty hard.  Ive searched here and on the wiki: my raw is practicly identical to someoffered, and in many cases I replaced my syndrome with anothers to no avail.  Maybe the arena hates me.  I only want to make crazed or opposedtolife dwarfs.

According to my TI-84SE
pi=104348/33215
and
3, 255, 257, 3855, 21845, 19611, 1114129, 16711935, 16843009, and 1431655765 are the odd factors of 2^32. Note that the 2nd, 4th, 5th, 8th, and 10th numbers are all multiples of 5 but 5 is not listed as an odd factor.

It's completely wrong. I asked it to do some math that required more precision than it could handle.

So one of my best friends while I was at the pool told me... Well I'm not exactly sure what she was trying to tell me.
Apparently she has some kind of ghost boyfriend that was an aquatic alien in a past life and she's having a wedding party to celebrate their wedding in their past life together...

I asked if this was a roleplay thing, but she told me this was something she believed deep down in the pit of her soul, and that this person had been haunting her for a long time now.

Oh, and apparently it's going to be a pokemon themed party.

This was one of the best things I've ever read on the internet.

That seems to be a similar level of crazy to a story I heard from someone about one of their previous girlfriends. There are people out there who really are that crazy. Just be glad there doesn't seem to be any extreme paranoia associated with it, as there was with the story I heard.
