"Grand κλοπή Auto" nice... I learned how to read Greek when I visited Greece a couple years ago, but I have no idea what any of it means, so it only really helps with proper nouns

You people arguing about the Middle East and terrorists - get with the program! Nobody's clean. You think extremists dislike the West because they hate freedom? That's a load of bullshit I'll tell you that much. You don't become an enemy without some sort of initial discrepency. The US has been meddling in Middle Eastern affairs since the beginning of the 20th century. Iran finally had it's first democratic election after centuries of monarchical reign with the election of Mohammad Mossadegh. Unfortunately for the US, this man wanted to nationalize the oil industry - cue confirmed CIA and MI6 aid (look up Operation Ajax if you'd like more info), and the country takes a huge step backwards, putting another monarch in power. Why am I rambling on about this, you may ask! Well, if the United States is so keen on spreading democracy and freedom, why eradicate the very first person to be elected in a democratic process? To keep interests safe. That's what it's all about - keep the resources safe, keep the interests safe. America will always have a hand in the Middle East as long as there are precious resources there, and war is the very thing that enables them to do that. You may not think about this on a daily basis, but really, it's what fuels (pun intended) your lifestyle, and putting an end to it could cause some damage to the form of capitalism that America is built on. I'm not too disappointed by this, however, as I do believe that we could use a nice lifestyle change here in America, and there are those of you that fear Obama's socialist views, but I say awesome - bring it on!

Totally overrated. Los Angeles is where it's at

OMG 40 POSTS THIS IS SO EXCITING

Racism isn't a completely equal matter, it really relies on the context. When you're discriminating against a race that has been in superior positions for all of history compared to one that has been heavily oppressed for the past 200 years and only recently breaking through the oppression, it's extremely different, and you have to consider that. That aside, I'm white, I voted for Obama - race wasn't an issue. I know black people that voted for Obama and race wasn't an issue. YellowJacket, what you said about black celebrities voting Obama based off skin color is very judgemental, and really has no backing. Sure that's how some people react, maybe becuase that's how they actually feel or that's how they are expected to react, but I'm sure they are also sensible to realize that skin color isn't everything. With Obama's skin color comes his background, social standing, and a majority of his political views, which is what other black people can associate with. And it's quite obvious that you'd vote for the candidate you can associate with more. For example, I'm white but have a hell of a lot more in common with Barack Obama than I do with John McCain, and I had more confidence that Obama would strive to fulfill similar goals that I believe in. Also I didn't completely read this thread, but YellowJacket, you seem to be the only person I've talked to that lives outside America and supported McCain

I'm happy the way things turned out in the presidential election, and I'm excited to see what the next four years await. Oh and California propositions didn't end up going the way I voted, but I'll live.

Building mods should be same, they probably come with .dff and .txd files. You use IMG Tool to open up the /models/gta3.img file and replace the old .dff and .txd files with the new ones that came with your mod.

Really? I never get any spam in Gmail (well, none in my inbox, that is, sure I get a lot in the spam section but those are all filtered and deleted automatically, I never evne see them). I used Hotmail for a long time and then moved to Gmail and I must say, Gmail is waaaaaayyyy better. Plus, I prefer Google because they don't try to put all this crap on me like Microsoft does (I don't want to use Windows Live or MSN Messenger or any of your junk, Microsoft!)

Notice how I said most. Asian countries (like Japan and Korea) and Caribbean countries (like the Dominican Republic and Cuba) have pretty good teams relative to the rest of the world, but they still fall pretty short of America's Major League Baseball teams.

yeah but most other countries suck at baseball. other countries send their good players to the olympics and the US sends people that arent even in the major leagues and they still get somewhere between third and first so overall its safe to say that its the world series anyway! as for the phillies... MEH! i was rooting for the dodgers of course.

ah i love engrish! i have a knock-off book called chinglish, it has some hilarious stuff, too. also i have my own additions to silly chinese translations! over the summer i went to china and took some photos of my own (the first one's my favorite):

Yeah I know it's not the same, but I don't actually know French, so the differences between French (Canada) and French (France) really had no effect on the bits that I could understand from knowing Spanish.

Learning one of the romance languages will significantly help you in understanding the rest, so that's a pretty good idea. Maybe not so much understanding it when it's spoken, but when in France and Canada I could understand most of the French signs and whatnot because I know Spanish. So Italian will surely help you out in more than just Italy!

I'm not a native speaker, but I'm pretty sure it's more along the lines of: Nobody is sorry for anybody Not you, not me, not him But close It's from GTA IV, on Vladivostok FM. Никого не жалко by Сергей Шнуров
