    The hit was about killing refugees? Did the requester's name start with a T?

    Yep. Usually I just go and hack the value I want into the source code. I am usually programmer enough to find the "5" and replace it with a "0". lol

    But PC has been updating a lot recently so I'd be re-hacking it every other day. :)

    Edit: and yeah, most things like that are defensive on the programmers part. If people can't set stupid values they're less likely to waste your time nagging and complaining when it isn't working right when it is their own fault. You know if it let them people would have PC refreshing every 200 ms and be complaining the script is broken.

    Nope. Andy Dissertator.

    It was supposed to be about saving refugees, not killing them. But in my hands, that changed. Jason Voorhees couldn't have killed any more ot them than I did.

    It's strange that people think that about cats but not dogs. I've heard he also had the freedom to leave. Do you know the life expectancy of street cats is 2 years?

    My cat was indoor outdoor and I had him for 10 years. I am unique in how I think of animals. They are companions to me not pets. I don't own him. So who am I to lock him indoors all day or in a room. If he wants to go outside he goes outside. Now If you do lock yours indoors all day I am not judging you I am just explaining my point of view. I am a very free spirited person I let whatever happens happen.

    Also dogs are different because they naturally need a leader of the pack to follow. Cats don't.

    Any leftover candy in my house will not last one night. I try to be good and not buy any. Hubby will eat one piece from a box of chocolates and before I realize it the box is empty. :dunno:

    I caught that as my last hit of the night last night and did something similar. It wasn't a 100% wrong answer, but it was a 2000+ body count. Is it wrong that I had an Idi Amin-like indifference about it all?

    I'm thinking that's probably healthier than my reaction, which involves scarfing down about a thousand calories worth of toffee and thinking about the bottle of wine in my fridge, given that all deaths were entirely fictional.
