Terry Pratchett...good stuff. I read the Discworld series at least once per year.

<t>For those of you who don't me, I thought I would post a proper introduction. I may be giving away too much information here. Hmm. No stalkers, please. 
 
I am a university student. I nearly have my M.A. in anthropology; I'm all but thesis at this point. I specialize in archaeology ...

I tend towards minimalism myself. I carry a money clip with a few dollars (never too much), my driver's license and a debit card. I never carry my credit card; I only use it for online purchases.

Hawke

<t>Greetings, Gardeners! 
 
After rereading pretty much everything I own, I am desperately in need of new literature. I therefore posit the following to you folks: What are you currently reading that you'd recommend? Mind that my tastes tend strongly towards science fiction, though the ...

<r>A number of classic movies from the early-to-mid 20th century have fallen out of copyright and are now legal to watch online. Many of these films can be found on Google Video. I've linked a few videos for you all; I will add more to this post as I come across them.

<t>Hello, Red. 
 
I have experienced the same wanderlust. I grew up in a town of 200 people (and technically I lived 8 miles out of that town). I have seen and experienced the small-town life, and was not happy. I have vowed that when I finished college (which I have finally done) I will ...

<t>Right. I thought the thread was referring to something else... 
 
In which case, my reply would have been "Are you kidding? I've seen British television!"

Welcome to the Garden. Sow goodwill. Harvest friendship.

Thanks to you all for your kind words of introduction (and re-introduction).

Hawke

<t>Hello, Gardeners. 
 
This is not a new introduction, but rather a RE-introduction. It's been nearly two years since I last signed on here, and by now I'm sure that everyone I used to know has either moved on or has forgotten me. Conversely, I have two years' worth of new members to say ...

Thanks for the replies, folks. Tombstone - thanks for the modified images. I'll go ahead and use this banner for my new site layout.

Best Regards,

Greetings and welcome to the Garden. Pull up a chair and sit a spell.

Hello and welcome to the Garden!

Hmm...did your connection or your COMPUTER slow down while you were connected to cable internet? If your entire computer slowed down, then you probably have spyware/adware on your computer, or it could even have been co-opted by malicious software and turned into a "zombie" computer.

Brain:Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Pinky:Well, I think so, Brain, but it's a miracle that this one grew back.

*snicker*

Umm...interesting link. I'll just keep those plans for...um...security reasons...yeah.

Hawke

<t>I feel that we should also look on the other side of this issue. For me, it is important for our youth to grow up feeling that they are a citizen of the world, rather than just the citizen of one nation. Trips to other countries should be encouraged and allowed (with the proper supervision and a ...

Anyone who needs to pay that much to see Eric Clapton needs their head seriously testing anyway!

Hey, now...some of us really like Eric Clapton!

Hawke

Welcome back, Kotter! Err...Tombstone. Right. Welcome back, Tombstone! There we go.

/cheezy 70s references.

//wasn't even alive in the 70s.

<t>Some things in life are bad, 
 
They can really make you mad. 
 
Other things just make you swear and curse. 
 
When you're chewing life's gristle, 
 
Don't grumble, 
 
Give a whistle. 
 
And this'll help things turn out for the best.

Enjoy your vacation. Not too much, though, or you might decide to not come back!

In all seriousness, I'm sure you've earned that vacation; education is not the easiest job in the world.

Hello, and welcome to the Garden. I hope you enjoy your stay!

Ha! Classic. "Near Dark".

Which sadly came out at the same time as "Lost Boys", and summarily was almost forgotten. Though, in my opinion, "Near Dark" was the better film...

Hawke

"If you only knew the POWER of the Dark Side!"

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

And yes, I believe there's a bit of good and evil inside all of us.

These are both from the same movie:

That's a pretty neat little link. Thanks for sharing it with us!

...no one's guessing on mine?

Hawke

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.

Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.

I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate.

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Time to die.

Whoops. Thought this was a thread about the movie Rocky.

Rocky: Adrian!

The movie was a fair rendition of the book; I'd say that it jived with the book about 80%. The subtractions from and additions to the primary plot were well-chosen and in keeping with the spirit of the story.

Once I earn my Graduate degree I plan on moving out West (probably to New Mexico, that's where all the achaeology is). If I do so, I wholly intend to pursue solar electricity for my home. Maybe even by that time we'll have cheaper/more efficient solar cells available. Who knows?

The difficulty with removing Norton stems from older versions of the software on specific versions of Windows. I'll need more information to help you with this, namely which operating system you are running and which version of Norton antivirus you have.
