Can someone tell me what each outfit is supposed to be representing about the given artist? For example, Paul is wearing no shoes, and John is wearing a white suit.

Well..that ties into the "Paul is Dead" thing. Paul is wearing no shoes because he's "dead", John is the Priest, George is the gravedigger, and I guess Ringo is just a person there. Paul is also out of step with the other three. That's just from my memory, it could be wrong, but there are sites about this stuff. Here is one.. http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/3674/pid.html

It's quite interesting.

Typhoid

06-25-2004, 04:41 PM

I have a question about this.....so the speculation is that he was dead....so how is he in these pictures?

Or perhaps his death was faked?

Perhaps it was a media ploy, so they could just find things that would seem that they fit.

I read the article, and it messes a couple things up to try make sense.

One of them, the picture says : " I you was"

But the caption reads: Page 3; A sign sits on the desk in front of Paul that reads "I WAS YOU."

So it twists truth and plays with your mind, because you remember seeing the words, but not in that particular order.

Paul is still alive, I saw him in concert in 2001. Fun to read the crazy interpretations though, kids these days.

No..that was a thing that the Beatles sort of made up. And if you think it's kids these days, you'd be wrong too. The kids of the baby boom generation were teens when the Beatles came out, and they were the ones who found this out. The Beatles left all those clues purposely though.

humors me too. i cant stand the mac desktop. if anything i'd like to make my windows look like my linux desktop.

IMO, linux (KDE) has the most funtional one, Mac has the most pretty one, and windows lies in between.

only thing i like off mac is the top menubar, but linux has that too and i can customize it in linux. im not sure about mac, can you put your own menus in the mac one?

gekko

07-13-2004, 11:24 AM

No, the menus are part of each individual app. Just like they are in windows, but this way you don't have to have the application inside of a window all the time.

well, mine ATM, i lost my nice penguins backround in my reformat over the weekend. have to get it back. was a nice white one with a group of penguins saying 'we seem to have lost our igloo" :)

but anywho. thats my menubar at the top. still gotta tweak it and give it a better skin. but i like having my own menus then no matter what window is open i can open up a new program or such without going to the desktop.

Those are my shortcuts to my various apprentice programs. :p

Apprentice is a program used to play cards over the net, and those are all the card games I have access too. I havnt actually played the pokemon game in everal years, though I did enjoy it and would play it again but the library of cards is far too immense. I keep it around just in case, though.

I play the Harry Potter game and Magic, and my brother plays Yu Gi Oh.

What gave it away? The Jail in my schematics?

I dont hate card games. I hate card games not played with actual playing cards.

I hate games like : Pokémon, Magic, those things. I hate them because i have experienced all that they are. I used to hang out with frieds and play magic all the time. Therefore it consumed my soul. So I have away all my Magic cards, and spent more time on girls.

Same with pokemon. What the hell was with that game? How the hell did it even catch on? It was like.......actually an overnight thing. One day I havent heard about it, and the next everyone in my school had like, 50 bajillion Pokemon cards.

But i play CARD games. No nerd cards for me. i dont touch geek paper. I stick to Poker, Blackjack, A**hole, and most importantly, Go Fish.

Vampyr

09-19-2004, 12:01 AM

I dont have the money to buy tons of magic cards, so my real life decks suck, I just play casually with friends. Because it's a fun hobby. My soul is perfectly in tact, with no consumage whatsoever, and the ladies still love me.

I play Magic because of the higher level of thinking involved. It's more skill than luck. You have to know how to play the cards you draw. It gives me a nice mental work out and I just love competition.

But I also love what you consider to be "real card games". I have a special deck of playing cards I only use for Poker and Blackjack, and they are in perfect condition. I have 5 decks of playing cards in my room, with one set up on my desk in a case displaying the Ace of Spades, and I carry the Ace of Hearts in my wallet.

I love cards. :D

My desktop isnt sweet at all. Its one of the default backgrounds, considering im too lazy to make any extra users, so everyone uses this computer.

But it is a nice image of a small tropical Island with white sand beaches and clear water. It reminds me of FFX. Man I love FFX. (Ive beaten the game like, 10 times, yet it still feels new each time. Same with FFX-2)
