And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

They were given away as a special offer from I think July 7 until Bungie day. You can no longer get them.

It was available for a two week period last July. It's gone now and not coming back, sorry.

Yeah they gave away the blue-flame effect and, unfortunately, it is too late to get it, I think. Sorry.

"I heard you guys taste.....just like chicken!" - Halo 2 marine.

Yes they did become available. I think you can still get them but I can't remember how to get them.

Yes, last year between (around) June 14th til July 7th, there was a give away for anyone with the Bungie Mobile App for an apple device.

About 4 weeks of people screwing around.

Sadly, the giveaway stopped and can never be gotten again. Ever.

Blue flames are really visible in sniper scopes
Speaking of..I havent been on Reach in a long while...maybe time to spin up the disk again.

False, you can no longer obtain the flames of fame or the bungie name plate.

Nope. The reason they gave them away was to celebrate Halo. It was pretty much their last act before giving the reins away. Now they have absolutely no control over such things.

And since it was a Bungie thing (the Blue Flames being linked with the Bungie Nameplate and all that jazz), 343 won't be messing with it.

It's too late. Sorry mate, but eh.

Nope, they no longer support HALO anymore. 343i is now in control.

pectus excavatum

Pectus excavatum...

It's an x-linked chromosomal recessive genetic disorder. You definitely got it from your heterozygous mother, unless she also reflects and identical phenotype.

it can be but it was random when it happened to me over the years...they had to break all my ribs and put a bar in my chest to push it out the way it is soposed to be, they said it is soposed to be the most painful surgury you can have...but the only real painful parts was when i first woke up, when they toke the three drain tubes out 5 days later, and when the cathider came out(i think you know why). but overall i think it wasn't that bad.im stuck out of school for like 2 months now :(

Hmm... Maybe a frameshift or point mutation... Interesting. Man, sounds painful. I had surgery back a few months and it hurt like crap for three weeks. Hey at least you get to miss school! So was it at the point where it was interfering with cardiac/respiratory functions?
