Solar, your subscription fees are due.
By tomorrow, please deliver a chicken chop set meal + 1 cute **** to me; thank you. :D
Anyway, to make this thread live longer.......does anyone knows how Halloween came about?
I'm kinda curious to know it's origin. Was it something related to St. Augustine and the witches and the chicken chop set meals in the witches house or something?
I believe Halloween used to be called "Hallow Eve". Since Hallow means divine/holy, it gotta have something to do with saints and such, but I wonder how and why the theme of Halloween has changed to ghosts, ghouls, Beasts(666), Satan/Devil, spirits and souls, vampires and imps instead.

I don't know entirely, but here's what I do know:Quote:

There used to be some holiday (from Ireland or something) on November 2nd, but the church outlawed it and made "All Hallow's Day" on November 1st to prevent people from celbrating that other holiday (don't ask me how it worked), and then All Hallow's Eve(ning) is the night before, when people scared evil spirits away to prepare for All Hallow's Day.
I could be entirely wrong, but this is what I've heard.
Hey there SolarFlare (whoosh... radio static)! I found some websites about Halloween (I know its a bit late, if you lost interest). Try
this website
and this one
or even this one
They all say pretty much the same thing with their own nuances and details...
Now Simon666, you headbanging stud, I said nothing about Tori punishing you. I specifically stated that it would be the Goddess herself that would punish you. This is a much bigger threat!
To develop this discussion furthur, maybe interested peeps can post the evolution of their musical preferences. That's something I'm always interested in, and I'm sure we all have had our embarrassing phases that we would NEVER tell anyone about (except in the anonymity of the CodeGuru forum). Particularly include that music which you study/code in. For example:
I really started choosing my musical preferences late. I started out into bands like Queen and Rush from the seventies. This was mainly because my ma was into these, and I was really naive about what was out there. But through my friends I began getting into Metallica, Megadeath, and the whole metal scene, but that never suited me. I was much angrier than I had realized, and bands like Gwar, Deicide, Cannibal Corpse, and classic Death Metal like Celtic Frost (before their big-hair days) seemed interesting. However, then I found myself basically splitting up in two musically, with a punk side like Suicidal Tendencies, X-Ray Specs, the Damned, Sham69, GBH, and even such classics as the Sex Pistols emerging on one hand as my more favorites and on the other hand more industrial bands like Ministry satisfying my more experimental/apocalyptic cravings. Even as I grew bored with punk, I realized that it was this industrial streak which more satisfied my self-view, so I really got into bands like Throbbing Gristle, Einsturzende Neubauten and Cabaret Voltaire. For several years, Throbbing Gristle was my favorite band of all, though I experimented in japanese noise bands like Merzbow and the Boredoms. Eventually my teenage angst played itself through, and I began to find myself enjoying more mellow music from the Cleopatra catalog like Death In June and Psychic TV (a TG spinoff), and I also began listening to Dead Can Dance and related. This was probably when I started liking Tori Amos as well. Eventually, I found electronica and enjoyed the musicianship of some of the subfields. I now particularly enjoy much of the downtempo/drum-n-bass type musics, such as IDM like Muziq, DJ Spooky, Boards of Canada, etc. I have always coded and studied with music playing, and I have enjoyed doing so to all of the musics mentioned.
Anyway, there is my life-music history. Some of it I am still proud to listen to, others I have become somewhat embarrased of. I would love to hear about others' histories. I think the music you have listened to says alot about your past and present personality.
Since I'm a cheap guy ;), instead of letting my music taste develop itself, I let my listening preferences tune to radio stations. (That means no $$$ lost on CDs or other forms of music). Various stations at various times, of course. But that's only music I like to listen to. Music to play is a lot different; on the piano, I enjoy classics and a little bit of modern stuff, and when I used to play in a (school) band I enjoyed anything that had a lot of brass.
From SolarFlare:
Of course not, Solar! By paying me a chicken chop set mean and 1 cute **** in her birthday suit, you'll be getting free protection from bad guys online. Plus, you can post any number of posts/threads in Codeguru and browse for as many times per second as you wanna. That's the advantage.Quote:

In addition, you get free advertisements at the top of Codeguru and such. Ordinary members who don't pay me any fees don't get such great stuff. :D
(the above are meant as a joke, and I don't mean anything harmful and such.....so Brad......please don't ban me)
Yes, yes. I think I understand. :DQuote:

Just to warn you, u had better hire me as your lawyer and we can discuss the legal issues and how to counter Codeguru from suing you. That's the point. :cool:
I'll be out for dinner later on, so please visit me at my law firm 4:00 AM in the morning, thank you.(together with 5 gurls, 1 lorry of chicken chop/chicken burgers and US$6000 as base fee):cool: :cool:
Still not scared. She does make good msic, just for the record.Quote:

I still like heavy metal so in a way you could say I haven't evolved, yet on the other hand, metal has evolved along the years. However, I can't program with music on. It just distracts me. I also don't have a soundcard on my computer at work, I don't know whether any of you listen to these webradios? I've never wanted tosign up yet, you never know what they do with the information, I don't want to be flooded with junk mail. Anyone has experience with this? I ask this because in Belgium, since a couple of years we don't have any good heavy metal program any more on the radio.Quote:

Now Xeon, that is extortion of women, food and money. What's next? Drugs and alcohol? Those evil practices would make one suspect YOU are The Great Beast.Quote:

From Simon:
Of course not, Simon! Don't be silly! I never force him to hire me as a lawyer, and besides, if he can't pay any of them, he can always pay me in installements, right??!Quote:

For example, orginally, I need 5 gurls age 20. That would be a total age of 100 years old.
If he can't send me 5 gurls who're each 20 years old, he can send me a **** per day who's younger, like 6 years old and such.
And who says anything about doing something bad to those gurls??!!! Daddy Xeon's gonna take 'em to amusement parks, buy toys and candies for 'em and pamper them and take care of them and such. Besides, I love baby gurls. That's why.
In that case, wouldn't they be much safer with me than with their natural fathers who abuses them physically and such? Aye......Simon. U've misunderstood my kind intentions and replace 'em with vile notions.......aye~. :cool: :D
Xeon you pedaphile
Simon, others may be fooled, but I am not. Despite the fact that it says it's not, that picture is still an avatar. :)
