If I ever became an evil overlord, I'd make my lair so that it's easy to enter the ventilation shafts from a poorly guarded area well outside the lair itself. The ventilation shafts themselves would be a deathtrap made of a nonmagnetic metal and filled with trapdoors over spike pits, super-sticky adhesive, irremovable/indestructible grates, as many jamming devices as possible(not only to cut off communication lines, but to hopefully gum up any remote controlled drones or hoverboards) and, of course, recessed automated machine guns that are shielded from EMPs, run on their own generators separate of the main power grid, equipped with as many types of camera as possible and programmed to fire if any of these cameras detect a disturbance. And maybe some proximity mines, for good measure. The only real problem would be engineering a system to reload the machine guns... XDD Boom! *hard to tell whether or not she's listening* We’ll keep singing without fail, otherwise we’d spoil it~ Hosing down the garbage pail And scrubbing up the toilet Ooh!Jannon: *tries to concentrate on random objects around them and not the song* Wouldn't non-magnetic metal leave you with aluminum, lead, chrome, zinc, copper, or tin? With a pair of wire-cutters your opponent is enabled to enter your fortress, break the weak metal, and stroll past all your death traps to overthrow you. Actually, come to think, it's pretty well impossible to stealthily make your way through a vent with magnets anyway. *CLANG!* *CLANG!* *CLANG!*'Hmm... Maybe I'll shoot where that sound's coming from. :U' </Mythbusters> I think he was going to non-magnetic so magnets couldn't be sued to escape some of the traps.

Objection! </silly> But yeah, from the way magnets stick, I think that'd be tricky.

You know... the argument over splitting because of the violence made no sense whatsoever because there hasn't been any on the Taco in over a year. used xp Jannon: .oO(It would be rude to stop her... the song can't go on much longer...)

Possibly because people had been afraid of it. Admittedly, the split has seemed to draw some people in. Maybe once we've got more people coming and some things more-relaxed, it can help with getting things together later on. *indeed, I have been skipping parts of the song* Sing along~ If you cannot sing then hum along~ Coo-oo~ As we’re finishing our happy working song~!

How do you do it? Jannon: .oO(And she looks so happy. I don't want to make her feel bad- wait did she just say the song was ending? Thank goodness!) Admittedly, over the course of my life, I've been told a bunch and bunch of things about how attitude can effect things in the long run. XD 'You only fail if you stop trying.' 'If you can't get it all together, improvise.' 'When it comes to being the one to do things, instead of saying "Why me?" how about saying "Why not me?"' Etcetera. 'You see what you focus on' also ties in. Also stuff about enduring to the end... It goes on. Admittedly, I try to go for a fairly neutral stance. I know the world isn't all sunshine-and-rainbows, but I know it isn't all doom-and-gloom, either. I try not to get my hopes up too high to avoid a major low if things don't turn out a certain way, but if there are still good possibilities, then they are possible, even if unlikely, and can be aimed for. It also helps to try to consider different things and find the possibilities. *pokes signature* The latest General Conference also helped. Part of the first talk in the second session, especially.
There's other stuff mixed in there, though their talks are rarely about one single subject.
Anyway. *indeed, that was the end of the song* Yeah, I do stuff like that a lot. So I like any help I can get. *looks at error ProBoards gave her* Whaddya mean I didn't enter a message?

I approve of this plz Chaos? No, things just keep happening over and over. That's all. *trying to apply for a job* What's the difference between 'typing' and 'keyboarding'? And I assume '10-key' basically means you can use a number pad?

Entering information into a computer via a keyboard? Seriously? I've been doing that for longer than I can remember. Good night! Have a good sleep!
