Hmmm....your googling was getting a workout with that one! :rolleyes: Looks like the Sylvester Stallone in his later years of being jacked up on horse steroids, all went downhill after Rambo 3!

Don't know - I just googled "thumbs up" and found that funny pics :D Do you have something planned for your week off, like traveling, 96 hours gaming, swimming/diving,.....?
Negative, Im a simple man, simple needs, will just stick my feet up and relax. Have some stuff round the house to do, might actually get around to it or may just get put off to next holidays when I get my Rift VR.....wait....dont think much will happen then other than VR! Need to take my work van in to get the clutch replaced, apprentices and their lack of driving ability there. Take the dog to the vet for some arthritis injections. Watch me some movies, some SC, sleep in, bum about, anything other than work. Just get so draining sometimes I feel burnt out.
Are you self-employed?

No work for a large company as a senior plumber....wonder what I'll be in another 20 years time if Im senior already? o_O Being a Master Plumber I have the ability to start my own buisness tomorrow if i desired, which i dont, too much work running your own business. When your not busy doing the work, your busy doing quoting or billing, when your not busy with those your busy taking people through the courts to get payment. Dont think I'd ever run my own business. The Lucy dog is probably around 11-12....not quite sure to be exact coz she originally came from the pound.....dont know who could ever give her up.....bestest dog EVER! :D
Doing me some Grey market shopping.....one bloke hasnt gotten back to STILL on a Harbinger I've found...good price. Found me a decent price crucible, might snap that up also.....so many ships to buy and not enough money....what is a person to do! :confused:
Buy Rolo a Cruci... ya know you want to :-)
Your more than welcome to borrow it young man whenever you want. Seem to be getting more and more ships, cant fly them all. Waiting on this guy to respond also in the Grey market, getting impatient.o_O
From the pound? Whats that? Aw, 11-12 is a high age :) Than she may be in some pain in the morning, when the old bones are telling her to start the day more slowly than the former days.
Are you in a shopping rush or kind of? How many ship do you own in the meantime? And what style do you suppose to play lateron? Afaik you are buying person transporters (890 jump) as well as fighters, bombers and trading vessels? That doesn't sound like pieces of a puzzle that fit very well, to me at least :D ;)
You haven't really Rolo called a young man, have you? :D
Has the guy responded? What ship have you bought this time?
Morning all! Monday again, and I am really the opposite of "motivated". *sigh* But the sun is shining as she does since the last two weeks, whereas in the meantime the south is drowning in rain and mud. The far north of Germany has been hit by tornados yesterday, which is very unusual:

You all have a safe day - and make sure to have a coffee! ;)
Cheers!

Those Tornados look pretty cool, probably not the best thing to experiance fist hand though and I'd imagine they wouldnt transport you and your dog to a magical world of tin men and lions either! :rolleyes: Just been raining here heavily the last few days, is winter after all in Oz, is to be expected but atleast I'm snug as a bug at home watching movies and bumming around.From the pound?

As for my doggy, yes is getting old, getting grumpy and impatient.....reminds me of myself actually! ;) A Dog Pound is like a shelter, they take all the unwanted animals and try to find them new homes. Think if I had a dog again after Lucy (current dog) I'd only ever have an English Staffordshire. Some people think they look like a tiny Pitball but they are a million times from it. They are the nicest natured dogs, always want attentions and pats. They make a terrible guard dog though, if a burgler was breaking in she would probably "oink" and roll over back to sleep or if she did get up she would want pats from the person robbing me blind! LOL :D Cant ask for a better dog than that! :rolleyes: Hopefully she will be around for a few more years I hope but I notice she is having issues in recent times that remind me she wont be about forever unfortunately.
As for by recent ship purchases, yes I have been going abit crazy of late but beleive it or not there is actually a plan.....and its not to own every ship in the game although its starting to seem it! :rolleyes: Just picked up the Harginger LTI and Banu Merchantman LTI yesterday. Very happy with those and give me some different gaming options. This is my plan-
Super Hornet LTI - standard ship for short distance pew pewing and likely solo questing within its range
Vanguard Harbinger LTI _ will definately pick up the Sentinal BUK to add some versitility in bigger operations but that will be my ship for taking down larger ships and causing some damage.
890Jump - can do alittle bit of haulage but not much, more so to travel about alittle in luxury and could always do some personel transport jobs.
Redeemer LTI (upgraded from a Buck) - my troop ship, escort ship, my PAIN ship. :rolleyes:
Connie Aquila LTI (upgraded from a Buck) - my exploring ship but in all likelyhood this will get melted and replaced with an orginal Carrack LTI
Reclaimer LTI - Salvage ship to make some coin and collect some resources, looks damn cool also, reminds me of the Aliens movie
Banu Merchantman LTI - my actual transport ship, has more protection that the Hull series for the goods and reasonable armaments to protect them, plus it looks pretty cool.
Buccaneer LTI - will likely melt it as I have my hornet and dont want 2 or everything, see I have self restraint! :D
Will have my hands on a Crucible LTI when the seller hits me up its available which may be today or the next few days so thats a certainty. Also as said before will likely replace the Aquila with a Carrack LTI in the shorterm plans. After all that is said and finalised I may dip my toes in the future Corvette concept sale when it happens but dont really have urges for any other ship currently available. I tend to buy the ships that I really like the look of or what they do which is the way it should be. I basically will do abit of everything except mining. So there is a game plan, Jack of all trades master of everything! ;) Plus like I said before, if people want to borrow ships to enhance their experiance or expand an armada on a big opp, they are more than welcome. Caring is sharing after all.
As far as Rolo goes, I am aware he has a few years on me but we are only as old as we feel, isnt that right buddy? :rolleyes: Plus I love all his information he has on some of the gaming mechanics, are you taking apprentices Rolo? ;)
No coffee for me at the moment people, think I might order me a pizza for delivery! :rolleyes: The shop is seriously like 150m up the road, but its cold and rainy outside, and I'm happy and warm inside......delivery it is! :D
Here you are:

Just curious: is there something like a cold latte...?
Yesterday I've made myself iced coffee with a spoon (or two) vanilla ice in it. There's nothing better, when the temperatures in the shadow are reaching the 30°C mark. :)
Woah! Wall of text incoming! :eek::D Loved reading through it, thank you! Thats a nice pile of ships you have there - very expensive, too! You are aware, that you can by a CCU Aquila -> Carrack on the grey markets...?
And yeah, Rolo is one of the most valuable user in here, always having deep thoughts and very useful information :)
Before 2015, I/we also ordered sometimes at the pizza delivery service. But since the German government decided to inaugurate the statutory minimum wage (of 8,50 EUR / hour), the prices have exploded: family order of pizza now would cost us 40 - 50 Euro. And for that money I almost can pay the weekend groceries + do the cooking.
Well, 11.30 a.m., half of the day is almost done. Yay! :)
My comment was an erection joke but ok.Here you are:

Just curious: is there something like a cold latte...?!
So first of all i've been a bar tender for the last 3 years (recently decided to out of bartending, am looking for another job) and yes you can kind of make cold lattes.
Secondly... what the frack is that coffee? I'm totally bewildered.... is it like... milk, with a shot pressed on top, with creme? #confused
Back to cold lattes. I'm a massive cold coffee guy, and in my experience the best way to do cold coffee is to press the coffee (I have an espresso machine at home), pour it over ice into a cocktail shaker, add sugar to taste and a little bit of vanilla essence. Shake that shit, shake it hard because you'll get some air through the milk in the shaker, strain and serve, no ice needed, and don't add ice cream, I hate those gross cafe style ice coffees with ice-cream and cream and syrup. Thats a lie. I don't hate them, they're delicious, I just don't drink them. Point is using a cocktail shaker fluffs up the milk, like I've you've ever had a well made espresso martini? It won't be smooth and velvety like a good latte, but its definitely my favourite way to drink coffee.
Yeah was abit of a text barrage but atleast your learnered in the workings of my mind, its quite a complicated thing dont you know! :rolleyes: I have thought about CCUing the Aquila to a Carrack but my thinking is if I'm spending that much money I might as well buy the original standalone pledge. Also I need to free up store credit for when the Corvette is available and I'd imagine that wouldnt be cheap.Here you are:

Say, do you know anything about this whole NPC thing? Saw somewhere that if you have additional game packages in your account they will count for "free" NPCs in the game? You aware of this or can confirm?
40-50 Euro? For a pizza? What the hell? :eek: Guess thats what all those Greek bailouts do to a country....expensive pizzas! ;) Our minimum wage here wouldnt be too far off yours....like $13 something I think but even so.....what are they doing to those pizzas to make them so expensive with a labour rate of 8.50 Euro? Growing all the produce out the back of the store? :eek:
It was? Even I missed that! o_O
There is only one ice coffee.........

I'm barely Australian if i'm honest. When I was 6 I moved to the Middle East (Dubai) for my folks work, spent 16ish years over there, and have been back in Aus for a few years. Sydney for while, now Brisbane. I was born here though... in Townsville of all places o.O
Never been to SA though. What beer/wine should I try from SA?
