No *kidding*! Where'd they come from? I just stood there for probably about 15 seconds, thinking "I am so *confused*!"

I could hear you, Waters, but not very loudly. I know you must've heard me cursing you out.

Oh yeah! I can hear you loud and clear, specially when you're singing Chariots of Fire on Coagulation! Cool


Now my story is this. I bought a controller that came with the headset. I was pretty excited to set up Live for the first time! So I connect my new controller, start the game and then sit on the couch. That's when I hear the sound of something breaking under me ... Oh Crap! There goes the headset I just bought!! After cursing a lot more than Krystyn does when Angelo is shooting the crap out of her, I tried the cell headset I have and I could see the icon changing while I speak. I assumed it was working but never thought people would be having problems to hear me. I'll try to fix that broken headset tonight ...

Good fun.

 		Wow, much posting has ensued...Smile Yeah, waters, I've had a tough time hearing you as well in the games I've played with you, because it's quiet. Playing with yous guys is the bestest. You know, I can honestly say I haven't had any problems with people making annoying sounds in the mic in matchmade games...But I usually play Rumble pit matches, so I just unplug my headset in those. Hopefully I'll see you guys on sometime today.

 		No, but it's fun to have half the people going, "chi chi chi chi chi chi" while the other half is going, "dun dun dun dun dunnnn dunnn"

Sorry for the poor representation of chariots of fire..it's difficult to type how it sounds.

*Edit: And with lingo like that, you wouldn't think I was a 24-year old geeky programmer. Oh wait, yeah you would.

 		Maybe someone can confirm this for me. I'm not sure if it was a dream or not from when I was young.

I remember this Brady Bunch episode where the youngest girl(the one with curls Wink ) got abducted by aliens. When she was released the youngest boy was running through the back yard to greet her. She was running towards him and it was in slow motion with Chariots of Fire playing. They got to each other and gave each other the biggest hug.

Dream or not? I've been wanting to know for years.

 		OK, so a friend of mine elsewhere online just said that she sang a version of "Chariots of Fire" for grade school chorus that had lyrics. She could only remember one line, so using my powers of google-fu for good and for awesome, I got this:

Quote:

There is but one freedom
Man running along
Each step that he's taking
A step to his soul
The passion and courage
It takes to be there
The spirit of freedom
Alive in the air

Whenever the running man awakes
To challenge to glory
He knows he can turn the key once more
To unlock the soul

The way becomes clearer
The way is complete
The need, that of winning
Admit no defeat
The circles together
Hold hands to the sky
The freedom of running
The freedom to fly

Let no man surround himself with pain
But use it to free him
The game is to learn to live again
To try to the end
A race to the end

 		Nice..I figure the lyrics would go something like this:

I'm running in slow-mo
Just look at me go
I'm winning this foot race
I am in first place

It would continue on from there.

*shrug* Oh well

Heh heh. Heh heh heh - part of that, too, was that angelo kept freaking FINDING me, and he'd say, all polite-like, 'hey, krystyn. I'm right behind you. hello!' And it would freak me out, because how did he do that??? and then I'd try to kill him, and then I'd re-spawn, and you'd be there, and I'd be all, "no no no! I just re-spawned, dammit!"


That had to be my favorite part of last night. After I said "I'm right behind you" she starts spinning in circles trying to find me, yelling "how'd you do that! Where are you!". So, I did what any nice guy would do, I jumped on her head and started laughing... Wink

Krystyn you can take comfort in the fact that I messed with Phaedra like that too. I was standing up where the sniper rifle is on Ivory tower and saw her running under me. So I said "Hey, Phaedra, I'm right behind you...". I watched her spin for a minute and then said "Eh, I'm just kidding, I'm up here, and ran off"... then 42 green guys appeared and I stood there trying to figure out what was going on... Wink

 		While the lyrics are nice, I don't think they can ever replace the daa daa daa daa daaaaaaaa da that have become so fond to me while running through Coagulation
