    I thought Blues Brothers was quite amusing, though the acting was terrible, and the music is very catchy.

    ICC- Kilrick Salvage Inc.

    Reik landed on the corpse of a Razor behind an upturned table as the grenade exploded with a deafening crump, shrapnel flying through the air. Aaron realised the heavy door no longer provided adequate cover, and as he looked down he saw a trickle of blood running down his left leg. A misjudged...

    Fallout soundtracks!

    Wizard, Odin, absolutely wizard! The Fallout soundtrack is the perfect accompaniement for long reading sessions, and the Waterworld one is full of fantastic orchestral pieces. So many more tracks to listen to later as well!

    ICC- Kilrick Salvage Inc.

    Before the echoes of the shotgun had time to fade, there was a horrible gurgling sound from one of the door guards as he sank to his knees, desperately trying to stench the flow of blood from the gashing wound that Aaron's Desert Eagle had opened in his throat. The other door guard had seen...

    ICC- Kilrick Salvage Inc.

    Aaron merely nodded towards the woman, and smiled briefly at Jake's crude comment. He strolled casually after Kilrick, yet his eyes were taking in every last detail. A good professional gathered as much information as possible on the people he encountered; no other type of professional...

    Canada, eh? :shock: I'm not too sure how comfortable this controller would be to use for prolonged sessions, but it might actually help increase the number of female gamers. By the way, does it include a vibration effect or force-feedback?

    I suppose it's much of a muchness really: it's a choice between death by dangerous animals/insects/plants/fish/etc., innumerable civilised mediums, or electrocution/food poisoning/tropical disease. :) I might suggest France where you will most likely suffer from death by boredom: you get...

    I believe it paraphrases a well-known quote from the Blues Brothers movie, fifteen minutes before the end, just as the famous chase scene is about to begin and Jake and Elwood are sitting in their car: Elwood: "It's a hundred and six miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack...

    Western Sunrise

    Very lively dialogue for an enjoyable prologue. Good stuff, Mialdor! As one who enjoys Douglas Adams' works, you might be familiar with the novels of Terry Pratchett who often uses footnotes to add humorous details that aren't essential to the understanding of the novel but add greatly to its...

    Fallout Antics

    En route to the Cathedral, clad in Hardened Power Armour, I encountered a group of rats among the ruins of LA. Rather than wasting my energy cells on the little creatures, I decided to punch them into oblivion. With a hit chance of 58%, I critically missed and knocked myself out for a few turns...

    Aaron paused, his left hand already gripping the handhold to pull himself into the truck. He let go slowly, then relaxed. "I understand, Mister ... Reik, isn't it? Do not concern yourself, I kill only two kind of people: those I'm paid to kill, and those who attack me. I have no contract on...

    The Afterglow: Chapter One

    I must admit to having been slightly put off by the first few paragraphs, for your long descriptive sentences are a little on the clunky side. But once the story picks up, it's a wonderfully thrilling read that kept me on the edge of my seat all the way through! Well done! I'm looking forward to...

    Blind Anti-Americanism. What's it good for, y'all?

    Please, tell me she's not studying to become an engineer, or is she? :shock: That was the most meaningless piece of garbage I've ever read (and attempted to understand)! The spelling and grammar made me recoil in horror from my screen. You're a patient rat, Ozrat, I would have logged off about...

    ICC- Kilrick Salvage Inc.

    "What outfit am I from? Oh dear", Aaron chided Reik, "I expected better of you. Curiosity is not a survival trait. Anyway, I'm ready to go. No luggage, I don't believe in anything that restricts my ... freedom of movement." As he walked past Jake to the truck, the short stranger pulled...

    ICC- Kilrick Salvage Inc.

    A minute later, another man emerged from the building. He wore dusty fatigue-style combat trousers, while his torso was covered by what seemed like several lengths of greyish cloth sewn together and twisted loosely around his burly frame. The most remarkable thing was the way in which he seemed...

    How old are you?

    I don't know about last of the summer wine, but for me it's definitely last of the spring fruit juice. :wink: I'm 19, old enough to vote (18 ), drive (18 ) and buy strong alcohol (18 ). Since I'm two years ahead in the education system, my classmates during my accountancy degree were aged 21...

    Cigarettes

    I don't smoke, never have, and hopefully never will. Anyway, I get the odd bout of asthma so smoking would bring it on. By the way, the price of cigarettes has just gone up rather sharply this week in France, so newsagents were on strike because a fairly large part of their profit is made on...

    Terrorism Wars......This is a classic.

    I am writing this with what could only be described as a bemused expression on my face: I've re-read your post five times and I still don't get the joke. I guess it's a reference to the US, but what's funny?

    The Strip

    Beautifully crafted characters, an intriguing story, a flowing and gripping style, what more can I say? Thank you for writing such fantastic prose! I live in hope of reading the next episode soon.
