The helicopter wasn't really scary or anything. It's actually pretty cool to see how small everything is from up there, and the forests and everything... It's like you own the world, and it feels awesome. I highly recommend it.

Yeah, I rode in a hot air balloon in 2nd grade. I think that was probably scarier, mostly because I was little, and the basket is open to the air and everything. You really get the feeling like you could fall right out.

Anyway, yeah stuff like that is really exhilirating, eh Tiptup? I'm pretty scared of heights, so that was enough to freak me right out.

I'm also afraid of heights.
I think I'm extremely afraid of heights, once I was in an amusement park where there was this Cheetos Extreme Sports place; where you would go through a tunnel net that was only 1 meter from the floor, but it was a bit unraved (is this a word? it's supposed to be past for unravel), and I almost fainted xD
I think I'm never going to travel by plane, or helicopter (I will need to though, in 2 years xD)

One time, I rode the Tower of Terror at Disneyworld. I'll never ride it again or any other ride like that. Ever. EVER.

Oh, and yesterday I went to the videogame and movie music concert! :D

They played: Jaws, Psycho, (it was creepy) Castlevania, Final Fantasy, World of Warcraft, Phantom of the Opera, and some others.

Oh, and they played a song from Beetlejuice, and a guy dressed as Michael Jackson danced along to it. :shock:

Oh and...

Yes Kiddy, there is a song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qItugh-fFgg I searched it on Google and I downloaded it...It's catchy!

One thing that I really hate is how they don't let the citizens of Puerto Rico vote for the President of the U.S., after all, the President is also in charge of Puerto Rico! Of course, we have a governor (and the new one is NOT the one I would've liked for to win... :( ), but the President makes the much more important decisions.

I think that's because Puerto Rico is a little more of a colony, rather than a state; like El Salvador, although El Salvador is still in the process of becoming a colony.
Well, I don't really know how the Puerto Rico-United States thing is so I can't say exactly how it works =P

Oh, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah!

Another thing that probably hasn't been brought up for a year or two is that they left the "64" in Super Mario 64 DS... The name is incredibly unoriginal.

The year is 2398, and Nintendo has just release the Nintendo Lii III(that "Lee The Third". On it, people are playing Super Mario 64 DS Wii II Gamegear Super Nintendo Lolboard Ultrawalker on virtual console...
LOL

Anyway, story time!
So I showed my aunt (thanks to DKCp =)), a sound effect, the talking Diddy does when switching, getting on kegs... so she liked it, and she set it so that whenever I call her, that file would play. So one day I called her to pass for me at school, obviously the Diddy Talking played =P A week after, she tells me the tone became popular, and everybody in her office had a copy of it in their cellphones xD

I set the DKC sounds as event sounds on my computer. I'm also in the process of ripping the rest of the sounds that either weren't in DKCplayer's rip, were corrupted, or got cut off.

Check if the files are actually cut-off, Windows Media Player stops playing the files earlier than it should.

And oh my god, another topic change =P I didn't know where to put this...

I won't need to worry about that. I don't use Windows Media Player.

Also, I have the rest of the DKC sound effects ripped, and most of the rest of the DKC2 sound effects ripped.

I'm all confused now! Thanks to my English book ¬¬ Can you help me? :oops:

When a noun ends with an s, and you want to say something's from the noun (for example Chris), you would say "Chris's Wallet" or "Chris' Wallet"?
In my English book it's written as "Chris's Wallet", yet my teacher says it's better as "Chris' Wallet". So later in the book there is an article and it says "[...]their neighbors' house[...]". And there's where I got all messed up, and don't know who to believe.

So who isn't better to believe than those who have spoken the language all their life :D

By the way, Rareware titled the level as "Squawks's Shaft".

O RLY?
So if you're going to study spanish in foreign countries, you better choose whether you want to go to Argentina, Spain, or Mexico (the countries have different conjugations, and in Argentina the y isn't pronounced as in yes, it's pronounced as in she. So instead of saying "Yo soy", they say "Sho soy", but still write it with the y).

Still, thanks for the information :D So my teacher was right? I don't see why we should write the s at the end if it's not necessary *sigh*
I'll do that =)

I'm pretty sure Chris's and Chris' are both accepted. I usually just write it as it's pronounced if I'm unsure. In this case, I'd opt for Chris's.

Kiddy, I pride myself on being well-learned in the English language, and I think I could help you out here.

When a noun is plural, as in "neighbors", and you want to display ownership of something, you would put the apostrophe after the "s", but then you would leave it alone. You don't put another "s". Example:

Those are my neighbors' children.

Now, when a singular noun ends with an s, I'm not exactly sure if the same rule applies... although I assume it would. Maybe Rare putting an "s" after the apostrophe in Squawks' name was just a British thing. :)

Yeah, sometimes it can be hard to understand, but I think that the spanish here in PR is even more confusing, since we can leave out some letters when we pronounce a word. For example, a word like "helado" is pronounced as "hela'o", and something like "Viste?" is pronounced as "Vijte?". So yeah, I think our accent is WAY more confusing then the Argentinian accent! :P

@Tiptup Jr.
When a noun is singular ending with an s, it would end with 's. (So, it would be Squawks's)

And on a sudden topic change, I won 3rd place and the Best Sportsmanship Award in a robotics competition! :D
