If you enjoyed Myst, then you would probably like Myst 3: Exile, and possibly Myst:Uru or Myst: Revelation. You didn't mention any third-person shooters, but the Tomb Raider series was very popular until Angel of Darkness (avoid). A friend is playing Tomb Raider:Legend right now, and loves it. Other good third person shooters are Drakan and Darkened Skye. Good city-building games are Caesar 3, Pharoah, and Zeus. The Sims are also very entertaining.

Computer Game Recommendations
by Uzzah inokay, i used to be the guy with all the latest gadgets in fact i was the first bethelite i knew to get a personal internet account and the first to upgrade to a 14.4 modem (dating myself eh!!).
but for the past couple of years i haven't upgraded my home pc.
it has been primarily for my home based businesses (email, word, excel and powerpoint type stuff and casual browsing) so my faithful p2, 10 gig hard drive and cd reader (only) has been sufficient, but damn it i want to be able to do more!

What is it? Not a bird or a plane, but an ark?
by truthseeker inthis post has a little more detail than the previous post on noah's ark.. it could be older than the ark or newer.. there are some really good pictures here.. without another debate on whether the flood happened or didn't happen, does anyone have any ideas as to what this thing is doing so high up?.
if it is a boat, then what the heck would a boat be doing at this height?.

Many minerals and rocks display texture which look to an untrained eye like wood grain. Amphibole, pyroxene, and shale are three which come to mind rather quickly, in addition to basalt mentioned in the article. There is a rather famous formation known as "the devils postpile", which LOOKS like a bunch of timbers standing vertically, however is actually a large number of basalt columns formed during the cooling process. To me the photos look like rock outcrops, nothing more.

"The Wedge" or a wedgie for evolutionist?
by Deputy Dog in"the wedge" or a wedgie for evolutionist?
on a resent thread (the origin-of-life foundation, inc. the secret $1,000,000 prize) the question was asked: why would the origin-of-life foundation, inc. want "to keep the project as quiet as possible within the scientific community"?

Seems as if there was a movie a few years ago about a child who was supposed to be the latest incarnation of Buddah? In any case, I tend to think "Sure, why not?"

Should I persue a relationship with a Jehovah's Witness?
by BNS ini am 21 and live in ny.
i lived in sc for 2 years and went to college there.
while i was there, i met a 27 year old married man and he had an affair with me.

I agree with the above comments, this relationship doesn't seem like a good idea, and it was wise of you to seek counsel from people who know about Jehovahs Witnesses. Most of us here are JW's, or former JW's, so know of what we speak. The best way to meet someone compatible is to live your life doing the things you like to do. You will meet people who also enjoy doing those same things, providing a common ground on which a relationship can be built.

Disturbing illustrations
by Fleshybirdfodder ini've heard this illustration several times in varying formats.
to encapsulate: a man works at a railway bridge and is in charge of switching the tracks so that the train can successfully cross the river.
he sees his son playing on the bridge just as the train is coming.

That illustration brings to mind the question "So who is the 'wife' to whom Jehovah brings the broken lifeless body of Jesus'"? Ashera? Astarte? Istar? Isis?

Mmmm, no, I'd likely be arrested if I drove to work wearing my sleepwear.
