Ran into the ex at the local Harris Teeter store chain that I usually avoid because she pretty much lives there. She spent the summer working out. At just under six feet tall, boyish figure, and Farrah hair, she looks more like a European supermodel than the waif I married.
Oh, she won this round without even a scratch.

What's the difference of an European supermodel and a North American one?

American models of the Super status in the past tended to come from the calender girl market, whereas European Super models came out of the fashion industry and worked the runways before becoming famous. A difference in body type emphasis -- busty vs. lithe. This is less true now with some European models getting their first big breaks with Sports Illustrated where a robust body type is important, and American girls entering the Milan and Paris markets at younger ages. In other words, her body type is more like Kate Moss (except she has a better rack) than Christina Brinkley.

I suspected something like that but you made it more precise.
Returning to the subject, my condolences for the experience.
Being happy with oneself is one thing many people have a hard time with. Other people play into this feeling a lot.

Quake2World Project Seeks Veteran Level Designers

Hi guys,
Many of the readers here have probably seen me mention the Quake2World Project (http://quake2world.net) in #tf by now, but I wanted to extend an invitation for your involvement here as well.
Quake2World is a Free stand-alone game with its roots planted firmly in its Quake2 heritage. It also blends some of the best gameplay characteristics of DOOM, QuakeWorld, and Quake3: Arena into a very fast-paced and straightforward deathmatch game. It also lends some interesting tools to level designers which were not available in the first three Quake titles, including per pixel lighting.
Our team is looking for experienced Quake level designers who are interested in producing high quality original works as well as classic remakes for our 1.0 general release, which I'm hoping can happen in the first half of 2009. The project is quite far along, and we are currently undergoing a stabilization and media acquisition phase.
In some cases, I might even be willing to pay you for your work. For more information, please join us in #quetoo on irc.freenode.net, or email me (address above).
Thanks!

Dude, it's December. Don't get me thinking about summer now. Though it's pretty toasty here in Edinburgh. I'm currently typing with the fingers I don't have frostbite on. No joke.

Knowing Chroniclebooks, it's probably worth it. They are the ones that puglish all the Pixar artbooks, and all of those are really great.
Puglish?

That's a fantastic word creation! Let's make up a meaning for it.
to puglish: self defense technique in which the defender overwhelms the attacker by means of throwing a pug at the attacker's groin region; extra points if the pug bites the attacker's penis off
Hmm

Puglish (noun); a creole formed from a mixture of european languages combined with l33t and game specific acronyms spoken in a pick up group (primarily WoW, but also found in a variety of team games such as CS)
(I'm really, really sorry about the WoW reference)
