It's got to be hard to have a Bill and Ted mindset and yet live in the UP. You should have moved to Chicago. Think John Cusack in High Fidelity.

Have you or anyone else play The Matrix Online MMORPG?

That game was supposed to litirally take place after Revolutions and the stories were written (or at least approved of) by the Wachowskis?

How did that game handled the story?

there are two colleges up here

Actually 4 if you count Marquette which is about 130 miles south.

And of course the skiing is phenom.

That's all well and good and I know that the country is beautiful up there, but if you don't have people around you who share your likes/hobbies and views about things, life can be a very lonely place no matter how beautiful the scenery.

As for skiing, those days are over for me. As for university, well I was always a blue collar worker. My wife has a Bachelor's Degree, though. I tell people the truth; that she is smarter than me and definitely better looking. :)

Animatrix was also good :)


I thought the trilogy was alright... i wouldn't say as good as say Lord of the Rings or something...

Although i recall playing the 'Path of Neo' on Xbox some time ago, and the training simulations of you being bruce-lee to do your martial arts was a bit off :P

I suppose the big problem with reloaded/revolutions was they threw in combat/action scenes when they weren't part of the story to keep the audience from being bored, and all of this after Neo had become 'the one' or almost god, and had advanced too fast in the theme of the series, while just fine in the first movie. They needed more time to grow, but then it might have ended up as 4-5 movies, rather than 3... And the cliff hangers...

Considering I never leave my house and have no friends IRL, I pretty much suffer this wherever I live. :P I didn't know anyone when I lived in a big ass city for 30 years.

Sad as it is, I'm not joking. This forum is really the only social interaction I ever have. XD

What about the customers that come to the B&B? Run into any gamers that way?

Take a day, set up a lemonade stand (like 25 cents or something a cup) and try to just talk with people. Might meet someone :)

I met a kid who was wearing a Terraria shirt the other day, but he was like 12. :P I think it scared the shit out him, a 42 year old man with long hair going on about goblin invasions and blue slimes.

Get the feeling the great equalizer in generations is going to be video games? :P

Or that King Conan movie with Arnold. I still think that Howard's Conan/Kull/Bran Mak Morn stories are the only "cinematic universe" that no one is trying to make, but could actually be worth making.
I only played Enter the Matrix, and don't remember anything about it other than that it sucked. So I guess it scored some points for being faithful to the sequel movies.

Mostly it was rushed so it had tons of bugs with no real way to patch it.

One of the animatrix videos basically covered what that game was suppose to; Only in a 5 minute skit rather than a full game...

You fledglings really need to know WHY it sucked you see before my traumatic brain injuries when I was 13, I was really intelligent I went to school with Andrew Daniel Wachowski he was in year 11 (17 years old) and I was in year 7 (13 years old) HE TOLD ME HIS BROTHER MADE MOVIES (I thought he was lying)

He told me that his brother wanted to make another Ninja movie, So I told him small mild things that happened in my early Childhood, I just HAD to get it off my chest, I told him to make that into a movie out of it so he did.

The movie was called "THE MATRIX" you know where I got the name from? (what I told him made him vomit up this white stuff his brain wasn't used to the facts that I presented him, His brain wasn't ready to "Switch off" to the world)

I was wondering if I should have bought a "DOT MATRIX" or a bubblejet printer for my sh!tty computer at the time!

So all the Magic stuff you see in the movie I actually did in real life yeah including the superman stuff like floating

I hated doing that floating stuff always hurt my ribs afterwards they felt like they were continually sucking inwards!

Okay have fun everyone!

You children never asked, So I never told you!

The truth Is / Was / Will be laid bare, But ye childe never had the eyes that see, Ears that hear nor the other senses!

You Children have NO IDEA how you are being controlled DO YOU?.

Sufficit: Deus Mortis.

They (the bankers) will CRASH the global economy under TRUMP then frame TRUMP for doing it! I see it coming and you Children don't "Let's just see if I'm right!"

The slow staircase of rising interest rates, a quarter percent per quarter...
