| If you really want to optimize, customize and revitalize your box, check out FLOACH.PIMPIN.NET This is the center of the Litestep universe. I use Litestep, and it rocks ass. It's super customizable, and uses like half the system resources as the Winblows Exploder shell. Highly recommended. |

| NEW RA2 MAPS (3:30 AM EST) |
| Well, I must say, for the most part these are some top-notch maps. A couple blew my mind totally, and one, I forget which, has several different forms of the same map, which is a replica from Tron! It's from the disc arena, where Tron fights another program with there data discs. W00T! Also, the backwards Edge on RA2MAP20 KICKS ASS!!!!! OMG, I was so lost, walking into walls and stuff. Excellent map choice. |

| #57 YOU CAN NEVER KNOW WHAT A WOMAN WANTS, HELL THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW THEMSELVES. |
| You take things slow, they complain you don't show enough affection, as soon as you get smooshy, they say you're smothering them. You can't win. |

| LATE NIGHT 2 |
| Um, this second installment of Late Nite blows real bad. They show off their Keygrip tricks, ask CRT a few boring questions, and do a couple LAME skits. OMG, I was thinking, 'um, when's it get funny?' If you haven't downloaded it yet, don't bother, it might sour the beauty of the first episode.... |

| #56YOU CAN'T TRUST ANY GODDAMN WOMEN |
| Name one woman (besides your mom etc) who you completly trust. Remember the person you name (if you can think of one) and watch it, the bitch will betray you eventually, trust me. Tis their nature to be conniving, lying, evil bitches, they can't help it. |

| HOMEWORLD (2:30 AM EST) |
| Rine was accepted as a beta-tester for Homeworld. w00t! You know what this means right? I'm an 'unofficial' beta tester too :) I'll post some screenshots and info as soon as he gets the demo this week. :) If you're clueless, Homeworld is a space flight, 3D bsattle type game, sorta like Wing Commander, but MUCH BETTER LOOKING. There's a preview in your C:\Half-Life\valve\media dir I believe to show this beautiful game in action. I'm droolin :) |

| LATE NIGHT 2 |
| I was amused by Late Night 1, the Quake talk show by some Toxy guy and his nobody sidekick Essobie, and now part two is apparantly out. I have the file on it's way down the pipe now, and am wandering what the topics are on this one (note two things: #1 I sent Essobie about 5 kiler ideas for Late Night 2 immediatly after LN1's release. #2 I've personally had some flammage between me and Essobie and Toxy) Anyways, I still think it worth checking out either way, go on over to the CLAN PHANTASM page to get it. |

| #55 BILL GATES TRANSLATES AS 'TO CHARGE A FEE TO GO THROUGH AN ENTRANCE' |
Consider the implications of this, Bill Gates is a gatekeeper who charges
to go through his passage. His passage is an OS that has everything being
designed for it, which is between you and the net. So what this means
is he holds the key to the most used passage, and he can charge for it,
no matter how dangerous (unstable) the passage actually is.

| It's your day off (from work, school) right? Why the hell would you want to woork? Today I accomplished absolutely nothing on my day off, I'm so proud I could shit... but that'd be work... I can't understand those teachers that assign homework on the weekends, they must have terrible home lives... hmmmm, so do I... :( |
