    Well, most of the good stuff that I have is from the first couple of card series'. I don't think I have too many of the second generation, and then the third, it's mixed up, I started buying more, but I don't know exactly what I have. I'm going to say that I definitely don't have the Umbreon though. Sorry!

    And it's okay, I have a shelf with all of my Pokémon merch that I could find on it. :p On my bookshelf I have my favorite figures too, and I use an old school Charizard plush for one bookend, and a Hoot-Hoot for another. On top I have the new Flareon and Dialga plush dolls, because I thought they were cool, and I have an old Raichu one too. :p So I will not accuse you of being a Pokénerd. :p One thing bothering me, I used to have these Gengar and Pikachu dolls that reversed into a Pokéball, and I can't find them! Oh well I suppose. lolz.

    Also, Happy Fourth!

    Tajiri stopped after the second generation actually. =P come on dude, how many pokemon can a guy inspired by bug capturing come up with? XD (though he is the CEO, so he does have to approve the deigns. =/)

    Best to trade over. If Gamefreak can't pop out with at least 10 good pokes (for god sake's one is a floating coffin, the other a mole on steroids) I'll bring over a whole team. It won't take away from the expirience as long as I bring them in as UT.

    Well I've been specifically looking for a Neo Discovery Umbreon, and a couple of shinies from the EX Deoxys series. (I ensure you I am no poke nerd, just felt like trying to find the cards I could never seem to get back in the day).

    I was gonna try and get a job at Gamestop, but they hired someone too fast... and now I am getting $10 an hour, effective last night, so it is likely I will stay. My favorite guy there is quitting though, which sucks.

    And yes, $110 was a little more than I had imagined too. X-x.

    It is quite a good book, I will say. But yeah, I don't care for her character. I wonder if I would judge her as horribly, had my mother not done that to me. You're supposed to dislike her husband as a character and say, "yeah, it's ok she did that", but I thought he was an alright man, and thought he wasn't understood fully. My teacher was all against him and for Anna though.

    McCarthy is great. I watched No Country For Old Men, but I must read it now. His writing is wonderful.

    Tajiri isn't designing them anymore? That would make a lot of f'ing sense, looking at them. Tajiri was amazing. The originals were so awesome. And though I detested the 2nd generation as a child, I now like them much more.

    I will probably play through one using whatever I find... There are some Pokemon that look so stupid I would never use them, but if they're cool and have good abilities, you kind of might consider it more. I will probably definitely trade over a Nidoran if possible, because Nidoking is my favorite. I also like having a Flareon and Raichu, but I kind of want to experience it as is, without transferring too many. We'll see I guess.

    And I have quite a few cards from back in the day, haha. Which are you looking for?

    Hey quick question if I can ask? lately I've been looking around for some old cards, and can't seem to find a certain few. Did you collect any pokemon cards throughout the years?^^

    Oh! I thought he was the good kind of crazy, now I fear meeting him. O_o

    110.50 for running a stop sign?? Jeese I thought it would have been 60 or around that area. I'm sorry your day turned out so crappy, but if I recommend something, start putting out applications for you can leave the job you are doing currently. If you can't stand the boss, leave the boss.

    Well you just taught me to never read that book. Because Anna sounds like a real *****.

    McCarthy always had weird endings in his novels. For instance No Country for Old Men was quite strange. Nevertheless I like his work.

    I know I really did like Zoroark and was hoping something good may come. Sadly the only thing that shines is the camera view and graphics. I just pray to god that Tajiri would design the pokes, now the new guys made them look like flippin Digimon! If Gamefreak can't pump out some decent looking pokes I"ll just transfer my own from previous games.

    No, not really. He is my girlfriend's dad. They don't talk. Haha. He's just... crazy. He has verbally abused his wife quite badly. Lauren doesn't see her much-they live together, her dad lives separate. But he makes her work from 7 am to 10 pm most often. He got into a fight with this guy that he was delivering money to their company and so he opened their garage door himself and rammed his van into one of theirs LMAO. He's lucky they didn't charge him, but now they watch him with like shotguns and stuff. haha.

    12 hours is pretty good. I get 8.35 an hour. It's good, but hard to get more than that. If it's not the limited time it takes to do the job, it's that I can't put up with the boss any longer. lol. He wants to 'help me get on the right track' in his mind. He thinks he can help me and teach me life lessons. He is an odd man. Right now though, 12 hours is insufficient, as I don't have enough money. I just got fined $110.50 for going through a stop sign that I didn't see, that I went through because my brother told me the wrong directions to pick him up at his friend's house... today was such an awful day, and it could have been avoided in like 50 different ways. Lol. I tried to sleep over an hour ago, but I couldn't stop thinking about it. I didn't break the law, I just made a mistake. Gah. Whatever. I just don't have the money to pay for it, and Lauren's birthday is next month, so I need money for that. Geez. Life sucks sometimes haha.

    And yes, parts of Anna get quite boring... I also hate several of the characters, and found out that I don't like Anna, and I think it was subconsciously because she, like my mother abandoned her son to go and have an affair with some young guy. Lol...

    Yeah, I actually finished The Road between it-it was quite an easy read, and I loved it. Such a great book. His writing style was excellent. Although the ending paragraph was just so... odd to me.

    Ahh, the black and white. I am sad that Pokemon don't follow you! haha. But with the Pokemon themselves... dear God. The zebra dude is kinda cool looking. Some of them so far have potential, but their looks are just so odd now. Out of the starters, I really detest them, though the grass guy actually looks decent I think. It'll depend on how cool the evolutions are. When I saw Zoroark for the first time I was like, "DAMN THEY'RE BACK ON TRACK!... maybe." It seems like it will maybe be another Lucario; one of coolest of the lot, and one of the first revealed X_x. I always just hope "The next ones revealed will be better!"

    Your boss is a nutcase? Well is he at least respectful? =P and 12 hours a week sounds pretty nice dude, so is that on a night shift or day shift?

    Five chapters about mowing wheat? Man that can make me fall asleep in less than 10 minutes it would take. Other than that it sounds like a pretty nice read, though I would not pick it up because of the lenght, I'm already reading Sacred Fire right now. lol. Your reading The Road? Man great pick dude you won't regret it! and if your still looking for a classic novel I recommend White Fang.

    Good to hear you fixed up that Charizard.^^ oh and speaking of pokemon, what do you think of the new Black and White pokes? For me I have nothing good to say (freaky little pukes).

    Ah nice. I wanted to get a job at Gamestop actually... would have been more beneficial in so many ways. Well I work... pretty much whenever I can. The schedule is quite flexible, but when I'm wanted there, I am expected to be there when needed no matter what is going on pretty much, which sucks. That is because my boss is a nutcase. Lolz. I get usually 12 hours or so a week. I usually try not to work Fridays and Saturdays, and can get away with it since banks don't really operate over the weekend so much.

    The book is pretty good, but there are some incredibly dull sections... there was like 5 chapters devoted to this farmer guy, Levin, going out with peasants and mowing the wheat. Lol. And then there was a later scene with Levin all about hunting snipe in some marshlands... that was a good 7 chapters. The chapters are rather small. The main thing that makes the book insane is the length. It's really about love, relationships, and the social positions in Russia and such, so not my typical reading material, but still good for the content. The length and that we have to take rather detailed notes. But yeah, while reading it I also just finished reading The Road, and started reading the Deathnote manga. The other books I have to read I get to pick... so I'm reading Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness, which sounds interesting, and I need a classic book too. And yes, I could send you something I've written sometime.

    Lol, yeah we have that emulation forum here you know, I was looking at some of the tools. I always imagined it to be quite difficult. I'll probably obsess over it for a week or two and then realize that I don't have the time.

    I managed to fix my Charizard quite easily last night; I used those stat reducing berries, if the stat is over 100 EV's, it brings it straight down to 100 with one berry. I tested it, without saving, and saw that the stats decreased more than they should have, so I kept them at 100 and redid them, and then retrained for ATK. (sorry about the lengthy reply, haha)

    I'm getting an interview at Barnes and Nobles.

    Ah good to hear you have a job as well, so what days do you work on throughout the week?

    I took American History AP and didn't get any work over the Summer. O_o Is the book at least enjoyable? If it is try to forget the stress then and concentrate on the book itself. I'm reading George Washington's Sacred Fire for my own entertainment right now (1208 pages long) yet that does not mean it will benefit my school life! Sorry if I may sound a little angered there, but when someone find his/her own personal time I believe they should read/do what they enjoy; like Politics and History for me. Oh if you are doing a short story could I request if I can take a read of your work?^^

    ROM hacking? Not my area for discussion. Sounds like something that would require a lot of coding.

    For your Charizard keep leveling it up. I got pokes at 30-74 and they don't seem to have a noticable difference in stats, yet they are EVd.

    Ah, very nice. Where are you getting interviewed at?

    I've got a job myself now. I work for my girlfriend's dad-who is a total nut, they don't really talk-but I box massive amounts of coin that then gets sent to banks. I also deal with some ATM stuff. There's a lot of money in the world. lolz.

    Well I really have little time to myself at all this summer, which sucks. I have to read Anna Karenina for AP Lit and talk about it each week... It is 820 pages, and then I have to read two more books but. It's just crazy. I've got a short story I'm working on, and then I'm looking into Rom Hacking... AGAIN. Haha. I just get these convictions like, man I want to make a hack... and then for a week or two I am all about it and then it falls to the wayside because of everything else I want to do. I have to retrain my Shiny Charizard, because for some reason I didn't do it right... my records of it show that I did what I wanted, which was 252 atk, 144 Speed, and 112 HP... but for some reason the ATK stats haven't come through at all and it's at level 61. So I gotta fix that. And... I've been playing Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker.
