It's the fact that the schmuck who committed $3 billion in fraud got 40 months. And CEOs and people like that go to celebrity prison
$3B
shit thats a lot of fucking money
Actually, the homeless man has 3 meals a day and a roof over his head. Still fucked up though.
Heck, here in taiwan, one of our presidents was involved in some insider trading, embezzelment, etc. He stole approx 760,000 USD. He's serving a 19 year sentence, reduced from a life sentence, and there were people who wanted him to get the death sentence.

He's also in the Taipei prison, which is basically for repeat criminals and etc serving more than 10 years.
Thats how the "justice" system works in most places.

Depends on where you look for Airsoft some places will have it cheaper by a lot or cheap by a bit, after I finish college my dad wants me to go back to Taiwan go through the mandatory military training for a year or 2 at most 3, then learn mandarin for another 1 or 2 years.
I found a bunch of my old CD's from when I was really small and I had a portable CD player.
Wow. This shit is crazy. I have all theses songs. I have "I'm Blue" or whatever from 1998 which I thought the music video was amazing.

Than I have that song "And I ran, I ran so far away" that one. That's when Vice City came out and I liked it from the trailer.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j0GOjOgs6C4[/media]
There is also a song "Hey, Hey, Hey, Good Bye." Which I liked because it heard it on the News when they caught Saddam during the Iraq War.

HOLY SHIT. Hamster Dance. 1999 too. I remember that video.
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3G5IXn0K7A&ob=av2e[/media]
"Time and Time Again" that one is from around the time the Iraq War started too.

"Time and Time Again" is a good song

Watching the music video takes me back. I wish I was a teenager in the 90's. I also wish 9-11 never happened.
I listened to a bunch of my old music (90s pop-punk mostly) and it really takes me back, like you said. I wish I could go back and relive it, but at the age I am now

RATM's heyday was in the 90's. Fuck I wish I could've gone to one of their concerts. Also, I don't think anyone in the right mind was happy about 9/11
All the girls in the 90's at my Sister's highschool and my Sister herself all wore these sunglasses.

There is even a painting in one of the art rooms at School that was painted by a student, it's a self portrait and she's wearing them so I assume it's also from the 90's.
Also my Sister had a ludicrous amount of Scrunchies.
My Sister also listened to Backstreet Boys and Hansen religiously.
ahahaha Hansen.

Speaking of 9-11 I recently found a few pictures taken from NJ when it happened and I know EXACTLY where they took them because I've been there. It's on the shore, just behind the Mitsuwa they have there. I'm going to take pictures when I go tomorrow and compare them together.

Also the original Tomodachi's

I thought it was tamagotchi

I think such a statement is not very well thought out, mainly because it's dumb to claim any one race is behind in evolution. Unless one race has a significantly lower amount of mutations, they can't be evolving any less than other races. The reason people starve isn't that they haven't evolved enough, it's that someone else fucked their shit up.
It is. Well, from what I remember in the 90's they were just "Pocket Pets" and my Sister had a bunch. When I started to play with them they were Tamagachi's which I always just called Tomodachi because Tomodachi is 'friend' in Japanese and I figured that's what Tamagachi was a play on.
My parents didn't let me have any of those things when I was a kid, so I played with guns that I made out of scrap wood
