So to go on a tangent what do you guys think of stories written by Mark S Geston?
Specifcally:
Seige of Wonder
and
Out of the Mouth of Dragons
Like the whole final war in a attempt to end or renew creation. Epic battles are my sci fi bread and butter.
Hate the can't change fate because we are always being manipulated and human nature won't let us "ascend" to anything better. Still think you can fight against your nature and what "fate" put outs for you.

I love farmers, and yet, am also sometimes baffled...
"What We Believe
* America's unparalleled progress is based on the freedom and dignity of the individual, sustained by basic moral and religious concepts.
* economic progress, cultural advancement, ethical and religious principles flourish best where people are free responsible individuals.
* individual freedom and opportunity must not be sacrificed in a quest for guaranteed "security".
* in government by legislative and constitutional law, impartially administered, without special privilege.
* in the representative form of government as provided in our Constitution and in limitations on government power.
* in maintenance of equal opportunity.
* in the right of each individual to freedom of worship and in freedom of speech, press, and peaceful assembly.
* that individuals have a moral responsibility to help preserve freedom for future generations by participating in public affairs and by helping to elect candidates who share their fundamental beliefs and principles.
* that people have the right and the responsibility to speak for themselves individually or through organizations of their choice without coercion or government intervention.
* in the right of every person to choose an occupation; to be rewarded according to his contribution to society; to save, invest or spend; and to convey his property to heirs.
* that legislation and regulations favorable to all sectors of agriculture should be aggressively developed in cooperation with allied groups possessing common goals.
* property rights are among the human rights essential to the preservation of individual freedom."
So much religion... as a cornerstone of farming...
oh, and as for Cate Blanchett, she's got great cheekbones, but often seems really austere to me. There's no doubt she's a beautiful woman, I just wouldn't put her in a top ten. Liv Tyler, however, yes. And as for Ms. Dunst's teeth, you might be on your own there, Jess! ;)

I can't believe Cate Blanchett didn't make anyone's list! She is definately my favourite. I started to make a list, but then lost interest.
Thumbs up to Kate Winslet and Liv Tyler also. And Kirsten Dunst, whose teeth I find oddly fascinating. Is that weird?

Definitely a good list Alison!
I'm just like you 5-7 is easy but a full out 10 not so much. But yeah picking people with personality is pretty important because looks are pretty subjective. Everyone has a different take on who is a hot chick, and not to make all the hot chicks in the world feel less special but there are a lot of hot chicks out there. I'm almost inclined to say a dime a dozen though from my earlier post you may be inclined to disagree with me.
I don't write down or update a list at any time, unless it is a top 10 list of guitar rifts or mecha. :)
Thanks for the participation!
