That is badass! I love it when they use tiny LEGO to make bigger bricks!

ok... did some research on my own... on some pics you see the tiers of bricks better...for that job you need a computer and a fortune on bricks...

speaking of jobs? is it too early to pop the champagne already?

It's a no-go, I got the standard canned e-mail telling me I didn't get it, but I have a different interview the monday after next. Closer to home to.

I got a bit depressed after I got the news, but I got better
I suppose just getting interviews face to face is a good goal, I shouldn't get my hopes up so much play hard to get so to speak.

well... one sneaky hint here is... try to think of the job as a job you don´t really want to get...then you act with way more selfconfidence as you then have nothing to loose... that might work... it did for me last time...

and a friend of mine...he always said... interviews...he took them as a kind of roleplay...and he always gained expierience... so he took those interviews mainly for the expierience... if it got him the job... bonus

and getting such a lame emial after a long and expectational interview... it is understandable to get down afterwards...

Sorry to hear that Dave, been wondering where you were, just figured LAdygeek and JuJu were getting more attention. I know its hard to keep going sometimes, but the right job is worth the wait.

I love Borderlands 2. I have a 61 Mechromancer, 46 Commando, 40something Gunzerker...

So much fun, all of them.

Yeah, the first time through he's basically a pushover while the second he's zomghard. An electric gun plus rocket turret works well though.

I figured out the pattern I think, but when you snipe his shield drones, the little bastards don't always drop a grenade like they did the first run...grr..I have a super zappy grenade mod too. I wish I had a stronger dps gun to wear him down with while he is frozen from the zap grenade though and before he respawns his little flying fethers and the dance starts over again. I got the season pass to see if any of the DLC can give me options. I've read the 2nd time through you should skip the side quests, if so when you do it the third time they are all orange drops?? My turret doesn't last long enough to get much face smack on him. I just want two turrets dammit! It's BS you have to wait so long!

Now that you can reset your quest progress, I wouldn't bother skipping any quests.
The only reason to do so was so that the quest rewards would be level 50 when you got around to them.

Sorry for thread jacking but I have to ask, does any body here know any body that has the Forge World Tallarn sentinel and the FW Tallern Weapon set that they are willing to sell or trade ?

I am liking the looks of the terrain, is also why I am liking the terrain from the company that makes that buggy, as well as the other MDF terrain companies out there, and the new Mantic stuff

But most of those cultures have been crushed by the imperium, and tons of bureaucratic red tape producing buildings have been erected. That's why you seen the dominant structures everywhere. The new imperial governor comes in and has his built just like the one he had on the last barbaric world, only bigger because he's more important now.

They could easily sell moar terrain if they would put the necromunda bulkheads back in production. Idiots , when they "relaunched" underhive they didn't bother with terrain, so how well did that do?

Corporate determined that the GW Bulkheads didn't have enough skulls per square inch (SPSI) and therefore people would use them for other games
