  1. People are people, I love them all and think tall or Short your all Great.
  2. Call me crazy, But I beleive in these things and have experienced them myself. I have even had comfirmed experience with other individuals with the same abilities... What sounds like you may have experienced was either an Out of body experience, where your spirit or Mind was where your old roommate lives. Call it spiritual or Psichic abilties or what have you. I personaly know these things are posibile. Very dificult to control and duplicate, but very real. The person(s) on the other end have to be equaly receptive to know you are there and r communicate with you on the same level. Having a shared "Lucid Dream" being ony one means of such communication.
  3. I have been a Lucid Dreamer since I was 6-7 years old. I Learned to do it on my own to overcome nightmares, to defeat the enmies within my dreams. I remember most of My dreams anymore. Unless utterly exhausted, I am always aware of my dreams. I also have the ability to sleep in a half state where I am also aware of what is going on in the real world while I am also dreaming and to be able to respond to things going on around me in the real word and KNOW I am doing so.
  4. Why limit it to BYU? Just asking here... Being from Utah/Salt Lake area and Not a college Student.....
  5. I admit, I watch it with my near 3 yearold Daughter, collect the comic books and I read them to her.... And Pinky Pie is My Favorite.
  6. I have been a WHo Fan since I was 8 years old, Sneaking out of my room late at night to watch Doctor who on the BYU PBS Station at Midnight with the volume on Low. Tom Baker used to Be Top of my List of Favorite Doctor's but I have to Admit that Tennet has recently Unseated Tom as Tennet is the only one to consitently make me Cry as a Doctor. Tom Still will always have a Top place of Honor in my Heart but at this Time Tennet is my #1. Sarah Jane Was always My #1 Companion with K-9 Riding along side, Okay so yeah I am old School Docotor Who... Sue me :-P... But Billie Piper Runs a Close second For me and HEL YEAH!! I am getting a Photo with her at this months Salt Lake Comic Con FanX!. Weeping Angels has become my favorite Stories in the Doctor who verse, Though I do wish/Hope that they would come up with more new Enemies rather Re-using the Good ones Like the Weeping Angels. THe Best Epsiodes, I always Find, Are when there is more originality with a Doctor... Don't get me wrong.. I am all forsome Iconic Dalek Vs Doctor Battles... when used sparringly. But lately it seems tehy get over used and that they draw on the "Popular" Enemies from past seasons rather than coming up with something new and great for the current Docotor to become known for. Lets see something New.
  7. I found these last week and and been looking into them tos ee if they may be useful in halping me get my writing together and organized. http://www.literatureandlatte.com/index.php Scrivener is a Writing tool that helps you organize and write your Articles, scripts,Stories, what have you in what ever order you choose and keep them documented and tabed for easy access. Still going through the Tutorial on his one, but seems fairly well put together and easy to use. Scrapple is an Idea Board that sorta lets you put down Idea and then connect them together to help you get the ideas down quickly, connect them together and then organize them later without having to figure out what you meant later. Seems a bit less useful, but still, if your in an IDEA stage it could be helpful. Wondering if anyone else has found and used these applications and how useful you found them. The Free trials comes with a 30 day trial... and the 30days is not based on 30 calender days... but 30 actual days of use... so if you close it down and don't use it for a week? well you did not jsut lose a weeks worth of your trial.
  8. I actually dislike Epic Series adaptations to Movies. I mean books like the Hunger games are okay. they work as they really aren't that epic. they are more easily Distilled. But I Series Like the Mistborn or Stormlight Archive would really Need a TV series or the Like to do them Justice. I even felt the Harry potter series wasn't done justice with jsut a Movie adaptation per book. I would like to see more done with them. And hopefuly they don't get some outfit that jsut wants to use the Name and foundation characters to draw an audience but then really Diverges from the story like they did with Terry Goodkinds Sowrd of Truth Series in "Legend of the Seeker" Boy was that a Huge Disappointment. Very little remained to relate between the TV series and the books.
  9. Thank you very much for yourWelcomes. and I very much like Cookies
  10. IF, and I say if with a lot of Sauce, Sanderson were to have one of his Prime books made into a TV series or Movie, ( Lets say Mistoborn or Way of Kings) I would want it done by one of the Prime Aisian Film Companies. I think they could do the Best Justice to his work and give it the right feel. American Film companies are to much about the Flash, bang and Glam. They rush the story and try to Flash you with to many special effects to hide the fact that they are short on story and character.
  11. Jello all, Thanks to some help from a Forum member and a Moderator, I finally Managed to make My way onto these boards. I am a Long time Reader of Many a Genre and a Fan of Sanderson, of course. I hail from the Mountians of Utah, I am here Partial as a Fan of Sanderson and Partial to see what I can partake from the Writing Excuses Forums. I am hoping to see if I can make something of my years of scriblings and prorcastinations. Perhaps even make a few new friends along the way. Hail to you all and see you about.
