Re: Mountain lion alert:

A student recently encountered a mountain lion late at night near the Oakes College foot bridge. Fortunately, the student had read the mountain lion warning signs posted around campus, and knew what to do to protect himself. He was able to diffuse the confrontation by making himself look bigger and remaining calm.

A quick shout-out to programmer, artist, writer Terry W. Gintz. You won't regret a trip to his new poemscapes gallery. Thanks, too, for his dedication.

Wives of Goku

Wives of Goku (2007)

Of course, with all the muscular men and their wives running around in this show, one couldn't expect less of the fan girls. The interaction with our heroes and their wives, especially that between Goku and ChiChi are at most to laugh about, very and very rarely do we see the affection that they have for each other.

Petroglyph

Petroglyph (2005)

I need some help. I put the mod in the mods folder and I downloaded the petroglyph launcher thing. I run the mod, but it doesn't mod, it is still the original FoC. Any ideas for fixing that?
