Good thing I can survive 24 hours without reading Wikipedia.

Narcissistic personality disorder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Although most individuals have some narcissistic traits, high levels of narcissism can manifest themselves in a pathological form as narcissistic personality disorder (NPD), whereby the patient overestimates his or her abilities and has an excessive need for admiration and affirmation.

^^^ +1 to all of the above

Also I saw a clip on YouTube that not everything on Wikipedia is true, so how do we know if this announcement is true or not?

Just saying...

I think it is in support of SOPA which is a really big deal in the US at the moment. Dunno much about SOPA but I think it is more than the internet filtering that goes on here (which the EU have declared a breach of human rights but our gov. still does it)

Might not mind Wikipedia, bit distressed about ADVrider though. It's my second home after this place.

So all we need is a youtube clip saying not everything on seabreeze is true and our circle of logic will be complete!

Pat Green was born in ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pat_Green


My last name isn't Green though, in case you thought it was. My first kite, however, was green.

This is my bike:

Any oil in the coolant?
Over heating?

No shaft issues... wait that's not a GS.

My beast:

I skidded/slided down here 2 up (Mrs & I) back in November 2010, she hasn't been on the bike since... wrong tires for the job... doesn't look it but it's quite steep.


And I dropped her 2 up.

I think these congress rules will just complicate things. Wow my media empire hacks phones of people while they are on there death bed.
Just going to open up a can of worms and the only winners are ... People providing proxies and servers overseas. these will probably open up quicker than the government can shut them down.

If they want to address the issues of copy-write they should look at reasonable pricing for content and have global releaces. No winners here
