Also ask about the Spanish Dune film and why it was shut down when it was a loving tribute and visually stunning and fan-fiction.

I'm starting a new pile today and it consists of Paul of Dune!

I watched almost everything I could on 4 different channels. I don't like to watch most sports in general, but for some reason I've been into the Olympics since I was little. I still managed to miss a couple events this year.

You've got to ask what he's going to do first before you start throwing money at him, or it might not be as satisfying.

I'm in for sponsoring Freak and Eru. Anyone else?

Depends on what he'll do with the opportunity...

I'm certainly good for a few greenbacks.

If by pass he meant the test of failure. Then yes.

Eyes High wrote:What ever happened to seeing a movie just to enjoy it or just for relaxation?

Hey, I hear there's a new Dune movie coming out soon!

Speaking of Byron's future argument...I wonder if in the future there will be some kind of device that keeps shit novels from ruining the Dune franchise. Science will make some wonderful advances in the next 10,000 years.

Can someone see if my fanfic is still there? I forgot to save anything Bubba said. You mean this?: Leti II reclaned in his big car and looked at the thronged masses around him. "Silly humans," the worm thougth to himself. "They believe me when I tell them I am the one turd God. But o...

Sorry I didn't have time to correct the formatting of the original post on DN. Byron just slapped a bunch of shit up there and it looked pretty ugly. Thanks Phaedrus.

If the unedited version is better than Messiah, I'll bet the edited version ends up being the best of the series!

It's more of a book summary, until the last couple lines that is!

Byron posted this on DN.

Reads better than Dune: Messiah!

Yeah, the Judaeo-Christian ones.

That's a good one to be familiar with if only to let Christians know that you know more about their stories than they do.

It seems like the Norse myths are relatively obscured. Wonder why the other myths are better known? It is my understanding that many of the myths were destroyed during the conversion to Christianity and in an effort to update their religion many of the older stories were destroyed. Much that is lef...

The picture of that doll doesn't look too far off the mark to pass as a kja doll. Luckily, we have some great photo-shoppers around here.

Looks like I'm a member at Worm's now.That could be fun.

Libraries have graphic novels.

Looks better than I thought. Might have to set aside my respect for Alan Moore and see it.

Just had two posts deleted today: In the What do you want Paul of Dune to look like thread I want Paul of Dune to include all of the garbage we've seen referenced in the other books and a bunch more!

Considering how delete-happy Byron is these days, I pulled this from the I was a friend of Omphalos thread I wasn't a friend of Omphalos. How anyone could not like these new books is completely beyond my understanding. They're so well-written. You can really tell how much planning went into them bec...

Had a good 4th. Used life vests as diapers and sat floating in a lake surrounded by cans of beer floating all around me, also fishing and canoeing.

I keep thinking, Oh that's not bad, it won't get deleted so I don't need to save it. And then it does.

SandChigger wrote:Wanna explain that?

I briefly considered asking...twice (it was there about two days, right?)...but decided to just surf away.

What's to explain? You said found, then I thought, What has been found?

Then I thought, Jared's penis, you know, 'cause he lost all that weight.

Maybe it was my response to Chig's word association post that broke the internet.

You did it!

You guys are still engaging Hyppo? Why? It's not like she has any relevance anymore. They're all damn stalkers, that's why. And the things they said in the PMs...even just the parts I could understand... :cry: Oh, and my dog eats little kittens for breakfast, maybe I'll do a lil' trip to Canada. :t...

And what has started as a silly game has now turned into one of the most disturbing PM webs I've ever seen. (Omph, don't think I won't be looking into that last message.

)

Wait a minute. I was getting them and thought I had them all. Did you say there were 13? I only count 8 (not counting the first few you sent multiple times.)

Read the last few pages of this thread...then PM Chig for one!

No way, we've got to bring that fucker back!

I kind of like the PM format in the new developments. It's nice to have an orald-free zone on the internet.

Mr. Teg wrote:Haha..thanks, that shit was hilarious!
(Remember keep it in the pm system so you know who can't see you know what tee-hee-hee.)

You don't have to send it to me again for every attempt. I got it. Someone's going to flip her lid when she finds out about this.

I don't know, but you don't have to cc me every time you resend it. Enough's enough already!

That's strange, I got mine.
