[geeks] 4th of july plans

[Andrew Weiss]

I still have to get myself another copy of Rise of the Triad.  That was 
one seriously funny FPS.  Levels were very boring and flat but the 
characters and weapons rocked... Flame thrower charred people to 
skeletons... then tinkle tinkle tinkle (musical) as they fell apart.  
Guys running out at you deadpanning DIE!....DIE!... Some play dead.... 
some plead don't hurt them... they shoot you in the back if you don't.  
Then of course... Shrooms mode, Elasto Mode, God Mode (an actual weapon 
mode not a cheat... your hand fires fire balls while you run around 
moaning), and my fave... Dog mode.  And Bazookas not only frag people 
but their body parts fly very far when it happens... and it's different 
body parts too each time.
