What the fuck Versus? Are you training to take down a super computer named joshua?

There's a lot of us here with setups like that, I've got 3 PC's / 4 monitors in here right now + my laptop
[/quote]What?

You guys are just a underground evil organization, aren't you? This is all just a cover, and your just plotting toppling government and law to create chaos?

When I join the first match, I'm going to get pulled in through the screen into a cell in a castle, and be experimented on, aren't I?

Ok, here are just a few of the pictures from the weather this weekend.

This was some of the storm that we were driving out of. We went to Brandon to do some shopping that morning and as we left in the early afternoon, that's what we passed through.



It didn't look too bad from the farm; there was a lot of water, but it typically got pretty wet here in the spring anyway.



Once I got in the car and on my way to Winnipeg again, however... I realized just how bad the weather had been. Look at that. That lake is supposed to be a field. That was recently seeded and had started to grow already but now... it's under water.



It was enough water that I saw kids using a quad as a motorboat, SURFING in the godamned fields. SURFING. That's... just wrong.

Where else would they surf in Manitoba?
also, great pan blur on the first shot, I really like it....it's probably cause you were in car right lol

And yeah, we haven't had any rain in the farming community in outside of Ottawa.
The fields flooded there look like the fields near my house after spring.

[Didzo]

Sometimes, I wonder what having real weather would be like....

I happen to find storm clouds beautiful.

Yeah I was driving, almost put myself in the ditch on the way home actually. That's when I decided to stop taking pictures and just drive.

I like the storm clouds too, Didzo, but not when they cause damage like this. A lot of farmers are close to losing a lot of money right now.

Isn't there crop insurance for just such kinds of problems? I thought that was a staple of farming.

It will depend. Maybe some farmers haven't gotten around to that yet, or even if they have maybe their coverage might not be enough. You never know.

Even so it's terribly destructive and I know there is many a farmer out there not sleeping well for the last few days, and for the next few days at least. Some even have their houses almost underwater. I saw creeks touching the tops of bridges that are normally not even moving in my drive today. In all the years I've gone that way I've never seen it like that, just... makes me uneasy for them. We were lucky, the water was nothing like it is here on the farm.

[Vandamguy]

what them farmers need is some shamwows to soak up the water

[Odin]

I don't believe I've posted any pics here...



I'm on the left, I dunno why I had my jacket on, it seemed like a good idea at the time after all that rum.  Btw this was at my grad after-party.

[Turtle]

yeah didn't post the one of your room because everyone would get jealous

[Vandamguy]

What does the fonz say?

[Odin]

What does the fonz say?

'Drink Rum'

thieves don't care about wires.  believe me.

My home entertainment center was a mess until it was gone.

My weekend consisted of:

and some times




at a place that looks like



I had a break to walk out and take some pics where normal spectators can't go









This guy cut the line so close that I shot that at the widest my lens would go, and it's a 16mm!

[Odin]

That looks sweet Hek, what particular are was it in?

[HeK]

This was the 2010 Rocky Mountain Rally. It takes place in the Porcupine foothills outside of Calgary, Alberta.

[Odin]

Heh Calgary, that's where I live.  That explains the horrible flip-flop weather you mentioned somewhere.

[Didzo]

Damn that's awesome.

[exanimo2]

ND, AMIRITE?!

[A. Crow]
