Personally, I'd say that Bush is a sincere man when it comes to his ideals of democracy and the cause of fighting terrorism. He has, however, proven himself incompetent to put these ideals into action. Iraq is a fuck-up, no doubt about it. We went in there unprepared for occupation and nation...

Yeah, I switch out basically for the reasons already posted - they're gonna make a sub, and even when you wake up, you'll just kill the sub then get spored again. Assuming you're playing with sleep clause, just switch to a counter so Breloom can't abuse spore. I just don't see any other way to...

I've never really had time to run cross country for my school's team, due to JROTC and other activities taking up most of my time. The team is in pretty pathetic shape, anyways. However, I do love to run on my own. I'm not spectacular - I usually land between 6 to 7 minutes for a mile, but it's...

I agree. I've been running Toxic Spikes on my Forretress instead of Spikes lately, and I'm quite satisfied - Spikes takes longer to set up for significant damage, while even a single Toxic Spikes is enough to screw up focus sash strats and be generally annoying. Sure, it's worthless against the...

I gotta agree with this - similar thing happened to me about two years ago. The best tip I can give is to stay who you are - just become more confident in the strength of your own personality and character. You don't have to be perfect, and you sure as heck don't want to force a fundamental...

Hmm...I'm a big history buff, so I could go on and on, but let me post a short list. Theodore Roosevelt Ulysses Grant Ernest Shackleton Ataturk (Kemal) Boris Yeltsin Caesar Robert E. Lee Anton Denikin Wellington John Pershing None of 'em are perfect, and no two are the same - you have to...

I've seen mostly Yanmega's and Swamperts leading, lately. (Though it's been about three days since I've last had the chance to play.) Personally, I've been using a scarf'd Cham, which has worked fairly decently, though I'm building a new team to be more strategy oriented - as was pointed out...

Awesome topic. Offers some great insight into a country that for the most part in the west seems just to be looming up out of the shadow in the background.

Medicham. I used him for a while when I first started, then scrapped him for Ninjask. After I started getting my ass kicked too much on shoddy for relying on Ninjask, I took Medicham back and slapped a scarf on him. Damn, I was amazed. Also, Tangrowth. I never thought of them overmuch, but...

I've got a real deep voice that sounds kinda stupid when I hear it on home videos, etc. Apparently people like it when I'm doing public speaking, though, so I suppose it's all good. I think it's kind of a natural reaction to be weirded out when you hear your voice being played back to you. It...

Hi, all. Just joined the site, looks like this is a good place to introduce myself. How I first started playing: Well, back in the third grade I went and bought a lime-green GBC. My first game for it, and consequently my first videogame ever, was Pokemon Blue Version. I popped in the cart...
