Good luck with the move, Doobie. Hope it all works out for you.

As I mentioned above, my girlfriend is currently working there as a post(wo)man and thus we were living in an apartment in a hostel for post employees. It's not far away from the metro station Michel Bizot and Rue Diderot, in the South East of Paris.

Definitely a city to see, very big for European standards and has a whole lotta sights to offer.

In other words, just scouting the area. Seeing the best way to bring in troops, er, I mean tourists, by the metro.

And now setting sights on the U.S. as well...

:P What else should a german do there? ;) Actually I like the french, the relation between both countries has never been as good as it is nowadays. Especially in Paris the french seem to be very open-minded as it's a real melting pot there. That's easier for tourists.

It's still the US who set the record for most started wars since WW 2 :)

The United States has not started a single war since World War II. Not one, sir.

And tell the French you want Alsace-Lorraine again!

That's fine, we don't need those anyway, people have a weird accent there. Good wine and cheese though.

I hate Paris, definitely one of the last places I'd ever live in. People are fucking rude and stressed out, traffic is horrible, it's all dirty and stinky, and everything's way overpriced...

I think I will be pretty much close to being away. School's getting crazy and I work and got the house to take care of, as well as a strata unit.

Just too much.

I've been playing Reach for the past few days. I think I got most of it out of my system now.

Attention whoring mode on (aka Doobie mode), so I'll post in quote to make it more special.

Going to move to a new place. Packing things up starting tonight.
Will be off the internets for a long while unless there's a wi-fi connection there that I can leech off when I finally get settled.

Will probably use an internet shop here and there just to arrange my fantasy rosters (suck it Oz, close or not I still won!), stalk Jao on Facebook, and read impressions about 2K11 and Dead Rising 2 to see if I must wait for a patch (and lower price!) or buy nao. Chopped Starcraft 2 sucks monkey nuts.
If Elite 11 finally gets released, maybe I'll come back sooner just for the lulz.

I expect, nay, I demand that some members be banned when I come back.
For starters see the Heat thread, Random thread, or JJ Redick thread to give the powers that be an idea.
That's right, BAN! :proud:
I also expect Jackal to be well lubricated when I come back and I expect Doobie to keep failing expectations he sets upon himself.
That is all. True story.
HE'S USING HYPNOSIS!

Look at this way, you'll have a chance to pass him on the all-time posts list. And get his parking space.

Best of luck with the move, shadow. (Y)

Shadow is more involved on other parts of the forum, I just lurk here. Now my e-friend is gone. :(

He set me up with the best alley-oop insults on Zanshadow.

Good luck shadow, it's gonna be weird not having somebody put down the idiots of the forum (e.g. Badger, Diddy, Zan).

But... but... Jackal can't do it without receiving alley-oops from shadow! I'll see if I can improve my lob passes for Jackal to finish them nicely.
