Well, if you mean Oxygen by itself, that's not necessarily true. Oxygen is part of water, but unless something was to break down water into Oxygen and Hydrogen, then the most you could expect would be water vapor.
Although, it would seem likely that where there is ice and the heat to melt it into water, there would be the chance of some form of life. Although, given that they say it only happens every so often, I would suppose that life wouldn't have a chance to get a hold on Mars. At least, nothing too complex.

Interesting.. although it looks like someone scratched the photo XD
Still, an interesting discovery. I suppose, once Bush is done with his Historical Re-enactment of the First Manned Flight to the Moon, we might get around to checking this out.

y'all suck he had it coming :-O really, I mean, he apparently was already in trouble for assaulting a police officer and was kicked out of school. Would you prefer the parent just slapped the kid around a few times? I'm siding with her, hopefully this will get get the kid to calm down. As far as I care, if you can't wait until Christmas, you don't deserve your present, natch. So why wasn't he arrested when he assaulted the police officer? Assault is a more serious crime that a quasi-theft (I mean, it was his Christmas present, after all). It seems to me that this was an impulsive, if not vindictive act that the parent is now rationalizing as a way of teaching the child a lesson. Given she had the child so young, it is more than likely she's in no way suited to having a child, and it is probable that the reason this child is this way in the first place is poor parenting, combined with inherited stupidity. Simply put: Stupid parent = stupid child = stupid situations They both need to be filtered out by natural selection some how.

This... I... wha...?
If she wanted to teach the child a lesson, she could at least have chosen something less absurd. Like, you know, the next time he beats someone up at school, then call the police on him.
People.. people are stupid sometimes.

I'm proabably not the only one who read the first few lines and thought Tenniru found a human heart laying in the middle of the street.

Woot!
But wait... does that mean the shows are just off the air entirely, or has someone else got the rights?

That has got to be the single easiest video game of all time. Would have been better with more sound effects.
Still, pretty cool.

I like to keep all my old stuff as a testament to the turmoil the nation went thru when all these things came out. Imagine 15 years from now, we'll be asking if we should toss our 360s or PS3's that are collecting dust. Seems insane, right?! Trophies to me and whomever purchased them. Well, you see, I don't really care about the consoles themselves. Sure, I respect them and remember them as the great gaming systems they were (and still are to some degree), but I've always been about the games. I got my SNES for the singular reason that I wanted to play the original Star Fox and my Genesis was bought for Sonic. The Dreamcast is only meaningful to me because of how much money was put into me having one. I have had three fully paid for Dreamcasts and three copies of Sonic Adventure(since the game was in the system both times), and so there's a little extra attachment and value there. There comes a point where sentiment has to give way to practicality, and it's just not practical for me to keep them, and in a way, I think of it as kind of selfish. I don't use them, but there are some people, like Ink, for example, who never got to own a Genesis. If I can give her that chance to enjoy one, then I am more than happy to do so. If I get desperate to play Sonic again, and my ethical side refuses to let me use Emulation, I can just buy the Gamecube ports, which I've heard are pretty much spot on. Hell, I can even play Sonic CD, and Sonic Fighters, neither of which I've ever had a chance to play on a console. H: Well, as far as games go, I'm fairly limited. My Genesis and GBA are spoken for, and naturally the games go with them. I have some older Game Boy games hidden around here somewhere, I think.. but nothing particularly remarkable. I never really had the money to buy a lot of games. The SNES may be spoken for (and its games along with it), but since it looks to be not working (just shows a black screen), I may be able to offer up some of the games from it.. if that would even work.. were the SNES's regionalized? Do you even have an SNES? XD As I locate more stuff, I'll update my list. If you want to offer a trade, that's fine. I just don't feel any need to get anything back. Still up for grabs: Game Boy Pocket Game Boy Color Pokemon Yellow (only Pokemon game I'm willing to let go of XD) Game Boy Camera Gex for the GBC Game Shark for the Game Boy and Color Super Return of the Jedi (Game Boy) James Bond 007 (Game Boy)

Ouch, I somehow remember that bit about you having had two Dreamcasts stolen from you. Personally, if I were you I'd seriously hang on to it... Yeah.. I have a special fondness for my Dreamcast that I don't have for my other consoles. The first one was a birthday present, the second a graduation gift and the third I bought out of sheer blood-mindedness. Of course, shortly after I bought the third one, SEGA ditched the Dreamcast Ila, Ink, I've answered your PM's. I'll post my games as soon as I have the box all sorted out. I've pretty much decided to get rid of it all. I never use them any more and with the moving plans, I want to lighten the load as much as I can bear. It's just a good idea anyway. I have lots of stuff collecting dust from years of disuse. If I'm not going to use it, I may as well give it to someone who will.

Thanks for all your suggestions!
I'll probably end up getting rid of them, one way or another. I'm looking toward moving this April, and any extra baggage would be a hindrance. Hmm.. I'll have to think on it more.
Thanks again^^
Oh and if I choose not to keep the systems:
If anyone would want one of them, and would be willing to pay for the shipping, I would be happier to see them go to someone who would use them/want them, rather than see them go to Goodwill and end up getting thrown away. PM me if you're interested.
Once again:
SNES GB Pocket GB Color
GB Advance
Genesis and, maybe the Dreamcast, although, having two stolen from me, I have extra attachment to it.
I'll have to do a check into what games I have/am willing to let go of. Some of the Game Boy ones (like Pokemon, for example) I will keep, since I have the Game Boy Player and my DS. I also have a whole mess of connectors and accessories to sort out. So yeah. It's a mess.
Edit: Updated list.

Ok, I've been doing some major cleaning in my bedroom. I have little storage space and lots of stuff. I'm a pack rat, so this is a rather large undertaking, really.
The title really says it all, I have an SENS, a Genesis, a Dreamcast a Game Boy Pocket, a Game Boy Color and a Game Boy Advance, all of which I almost never use anymore. I would think about selling them on E-Bay, but I distrust them, and I highly doubt they're worth enough to make it worth my effort.
But I know very little of current values and what not. I also have Star Fox, Super Mario All Stars, Super Mario World, Sonic 1 and 2 and other assorted games.
I have a vague dream of, one day, having enough space to hook them all up and be able to play games on them again, but that's not likely to be anywhere in the near future. Also, I intend to get a Wii at some point, so they may be rendered moot by the virtual console. And, of course there always emulation, but I likes legality I does.
Thoughts?

I dunno, besides the slowness, it seems alright. Still.. it's pretty stupid. Although, I like the themed power ups.
You know, some fan should make a Sonic Breakout, only do it well.

If I actually liked Tacos, this would be the greatest deal ever. Unfortunately my taste is in more American-style food. If it helps any, Taco Bell specializes in Americanized Mexican food, so what you're eating is really the Ameritaco.

Well, I suppose it should be noted that I eat at Taco Bell about once every two or three months, and then only when I have the inexplicable urge to cause my body much pain and suffering. Sometimes I go to White Castle instead.
Either way, it would last me much longer than five years.. I think it would definitely be good for life.
Personally, I would stick with the PS3. Or better yet, eat the PS3, because, really, in the long run, it both tastes better and is better for you than anything from Taco Bell.

How can they decide that $12,500 is enough money for a lifetime supply of food? I could dispense of that $12,500 very rapidly. Oh ho! But you assume that it's 12,500 actual dollars. It says "Taco Bell Bucks" Which suggests that you get fake money that only applies to Taco Bell. More than likely you get a gift card type affair. And, lets face it, unless you have pot heads for friends, you're not likely to get any group of people there often enough to use up the whole $12,500 any time soon. And, I bet, after a while, you will be BEGGING people to come and help you spend it. "My God! If I have to eat one more burrito... I have TACOS DANCING IN MY BRAIN!! MAKE IT STOP!!"

That sounds like a prison sentence...
Judge: 'We the Jury find the the Defendant guilty of cheating on his DS with the PSP.' You are hereby sentenced to Taco Bell for Life. May God have mercy on your heart and cholesterol.
Defendant: NO! Please, have mercy, I beg of you!

Whoa...
Somehow it fails to surprise me, though. Maybe he just put it on for the show, but he always seemed to be on the verge of an explosion of some sort. Even in the few non-publicity pictures I ever saw of him.
Meh, I never liked him that much.

Pfft, to play it GBA style, you would also have to use MIDI for the music, make it slow down for no readily obvious reason and cut the frame rate by a good 40%.
Cool and creepily Sonic... I find killing the little girl with the lollipop a bit... disconcerting. And the fact that, apparently a single, single serving sized bag of chips can make me become the same general size and shape as a water buffalo a bit silly, but it's cool.
