Man, I remember those days! We had to Teleport uphill both from the contact to the mission door, and then back from the mission door to the contact. And they wouldn't even let you have their phone number until you completed their Mow My Lawn mission, and even then cell service was poor so we had to maneuver between Steel Canyon's superscrapers to be able to call in the mission complete. And, of course, no superhero's career was complete without being run over by the Tsoo-tsoo Train at level 20. Superheroes these days don't know how easy they have it.

Don't forget when you killed a grizzley with your 3-ring binder.
It takes a village to raise a child. And it takes a villain to explain the value of lunch money.

I remember... I yelled for help, and Positron was walking by, but he said something about conning gray and kept walking. So I had to keep hitting it with the binder, and in the process I lost the keycard I had stored in there. I think it was to the vault at MAGI, but I didn't hear about anything bad being stolen from there, so it was probably okay. Then when the grizzly finally went down, I had enough XP to level up, but when I went to Ms Liberty, she refused to train me up because she wouldn't believe me when I said that the bear ate my homework.

Aggelakis is going to Disneyland. Be good boys, girls, robots, aliens, angels, demons, monsters, etc., etc., etc. while I'm gone! Don't let the place burn down!

Not so new, I think Sugoi was referring to the 1965 song ''Get Off My Cloud'' by The Stones ;) XD but still one epic one-liner! ;D

Both of you nailed the compound reference I made up...   

Adding the "Get of my Lawn!" with the classic Rolling Stones song just made sense in a supers reference sort of pun.  grin.

I thought this might be a reference to something, but all I found when I googled is a binder with a Grizzly on it: http://www.fanatics.com/catalog/product/Montana_Grizzlies_1_3-Ring_Team_Logo_Binder

Strangely enough not what I was thinking, although I did attend the U of MT.  ;D

The original reference was a Bill Cosby comedy bit.

Multiple applications including but not limited to:
Statistical or rule-based modeling of natural language from a computational perspective
The descriptive study of the effect of any and all aspects of society, including cultural norms, expectations, and context, on the way language is used, and the effects of language use on society.
The study of linguistic dialect, a sub-field of sociolinguistics.
The psychology of language is the study of the psychological and neurobiological factors that enable humans to acquire, use, comprehend and produce language.

It does NOT mean being able to speak multiple languages. Although, I can.

I grew up in Montana, but both my parents were MSU alumni from Bozeman.
We're almost there!  ;D
