Agreed, and it would also require some talent which I feel some modern art "makers" severly lack. I mean, even I can paint a plastic cow in bright colors and I have no artistic talents (not that I know of at least). -edit-: for me, arts (any form of art) must either represent something through the work and reflexion of the artist(landscape, feeling, apples whatever) or make you think or react about something, art has to give you something (and this something could be a vision of new horizon with landscapes or food for thoughts with a reflexion on self-responsability and such with the exemple of the goldfish in a mixer)

I'm with you on this one. I don't mind modern art personnaly as some works are clearly works of arts, but the exemples you've quoted are exactly what I despise. Go to Paris someday and visit the Louvre and Orsay museums and the Pompidou centre where you can find some of the most fantastic art collections ever assembled.

Didn't Rogue Spear : Black Thorn have a mission that took place in the congress hall of the Athens olympic village or something ?

A gymnast wouldn't do it for me, I would break her apart if ever I held her in my arms. Give me a female horse rider with her firm little bott.... erm ... ... I wouldn't spit on one of those female swimmers, some of them are nice. nvm .... women beach volley rocks btw ;)

I am happy ... the french delegation is doing relatively well.

I'm not sure if Nolips has reached the legal age for this type of bucket yet Bals, but feel free to give it to me, I'll make a good use of it, don't worry.

I have a problem with this statement, you don't hate a nation, you hate an administration, a government, because a nation is an economical and geographical association of people standing for its interests and ideals.As a citizen I am a working part of my nation, so if you don't hate the people, you don't hate nations, just a certain category of individuals in this nation constituting an administration.

Who? I only follow football mate, I have no idea. Probably is, really have no clue I think he presented the news on Greek TV. He also was the presentator/animator/whatever who came in the stadium dressed as a worker

It's getting long .... fell asleep in the middle of the athletes parade heh. Just a question Ex-Ronin, is Nikos Aliagas that big of a celebrity in Greece ?

Were the young men "statues" actually naked ? -edit- gotta love white body paint for the Parthenon's reliefs (sp ?) the plastic-looking dresses look funny, nice but funny

It would have been funny I hope he's going to be paid according the risks he took

personnaly, I have a headache, with all these spiritual and mythological evocations and all ... way toointellectual for me !

Honesty and Intelligence Agencies rarely mix well

Fixed. Post again, Ran. Hellfish6.

If moving from a country to another was an option there would have to be some kind of price to pay with different options depending of your destination, country of origin and networth.

YPR-XX is a dutch designation IIRC AIFV-B (B for belgium)

Dien Bien Phu by Pierre Schoendorfer. Fantastic movie, you should all watch it It's been filmed in vietnam in the Dien Bien Phu area for even more authenticity with the help of both the French and Vietnamese governments.

me too lol, what that special thong about the obecjt pack.. i don´t even have it yet the object pack contains ... objects .... along with the heavy weapons displayed higher on this page

you gota flaw there IceFire, how does attacking a country which is run by a dictator that good old bush has some stupid vendetta against protect us? in case you haven't noticed are soldiers are getting killed. so are you saying you would rather trade 1 soldier in exchange for 1 civilian? doesn't make much sense to me. while we waist time in Iraq, Iran is building their own nuclear weapons and terrorists still get money from countries like Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Jordian, and Syria. doesn't seem to effective to me. Especially when this Leader is reputed in the ME for secular values (at a certain time at leats) if it's awar to clean the Middle East from Islamic influence (tough job there, boy) ?

And you're doing a shitty job, throwing your might around like a fat assed bully using the wrong methods in the wrong places creating even more enemies when you try infact to reduce their number. YOU get a dose of reality. As already pointed out hundreds of times here, the world isn't just black and white, there are as many shades of grey as there are human beings
