I based the design off of the Sovereign class battleship, mainly altering the secondary hull. An assault ship was built into the top of the saucer section; and it can be quickly detached for battle or exploration, etc.

I haven't built a starship with system pieces in many years, and I wanted to see if I still coul
Unfortunately for you, this is only a teaser. The full ship will be posted tomorrow.
It's all system, sorry, no BIONICLE pieces, and it's based on the Voyager/Enterprise-E era of Star Trek.
Also... Detachable assault shuttlecraft; though it's much bigger than a shuttle. <3
Thoughts thus far?
Yipp-Arrrgghhh!
All of last week had temperatures between 40 and 60 degrees, and it melted a lot of the snow we had on the ground. Today, it's been raining all day, with reports of thunderstorms and even hail to our south. Tomorrow, we're expected to get 18 inches of snow. Also... It's windy.
Typical North Dakota weather patterns.
Wait... North Dakota doesn't have a weather pattern, it's all random.
Soooooo hot in the late summer, and soooooo unpredictable in the winter.
Yipp-Arrrgghhh!
EDIT
Ok, so I use a program called CorelDRAW Essentials 2 to make images. I reformatted my hard drive about 2 months ago, and since then, every time I save an image in .jpg format, a single pixel wide outline is placed around the image. I remember having this trouble in the past with .png images, but never with .jpg. Also, with the .png problem, I remember solving it at some point but I don't remember what I did. Any suggestions or thoughts?

My fever broke late last night, so I was able to go to school today. Those looking for an explanation of my new name don't need to look any further. I'll be sure to explain it.
Also, as the days go by, it becomes more and more likely that I'll be able to make it to Washington DC for BrickFair, so I'm quite happy about that.
Finally, a question: does the Law of the Conservation of Energy apply to matter too? I believe it does, but can't remember for sure.
Yipp-Arrrgghhh!
Well, another successful name change.
Also, on a more unfortunate note, I've got a nasty fever right now, and very little energy.
As such, I'm in front of the TV right now, typing all this stuff on my iPod.
Yipp-Arrrgghhh!
Sorry about not getting the pictures to you sooner.

Picture quality could be better, but I was in a hurry when I took them.
No, I was not born in May, emeralds are my favorite "jewel".

And I'm not even sure what it was called. I've had it since I was, oh, probably 2 or 3.
It stored Lego pieces of all sorts inside of it, and when you were done playing, you'd run the device pictured along the ground and it would scoop up the pieces. The mechanism that did so is in picture number three.
Without "lid".
"Vacuum" part.
Can anyone tell me what this is and maybe how much the whole thing is worth?

I'm gone for 4 days and half of BZP falls apart. I've been reading around BZP, looking for info on the supposed "hacks" that all occurred. Turns out, I must have gotten one of those PM's because I got the email saying I had an unopened PM, but when I checked BZP, nothing was there. Anyway, my weekend: Friday I went to Bismarck with my dad and several other guys to a Men's Retreat there. It was my dad's birthday, so we had a nice little "party" for him. I bought Gresh (who is very awesome)
Alright, so I have seven days to build a non-electric device that can accurately tell time intervals between 10 seconds and 5 minutes. Ideas anyone?

Ever since I got GarageBand '09, I've been working on it practically nonstop. I've got 5 different projects going on right now, and the one your about to hear is my favorite thus far. The only software instrument is the drums. All the guitars you hear were parts played and recorded by me. As you can tell, the quality from '08 to '09 is quite an improvement.

So the other day; a package arrived for my dad that I opened and set up at his request. The contents? A wireless G router to replace our aging wireless B router. Now, our internet is even faster than before, and hopefully, my MK:Wii will work better on WiFi.
Also, my dad wiped his Mac's hard drive and installed Leopard operating system as well as iLife and iWork 09. This makes me quite happy because it means I've upgraded from GarageBand 08 to GarageBand 09!

Epic Journey's been on sale for almost 5 months now, and I'd like to thank those of you who have purchased it. Up to this point, I've been keeping the money I've made off of it for use of future GarageBand efforts (among other things). Now, however, that's going to change. All money (from this point on) received from purchases of Epic Journey will be given to an organization called "Speed the Light" in a personal attempt to raise at least $500 for the cause.

The afore mentioned iPod Touch was an early Birthday present to me from my parents. I've been having loads of fun with it, such an incredible piece of technology. 16 GB 2nd generation, for those who are wondering. Also, 17 really doesn't feel that different from 16, but that was kinda expected.

...aren't what this entry is about. As you know, today is February 12. I find today a day of great importance. Our (the US) great 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, was born 200 years ago today. Lincoln was undoubtedly one of the best leaders this country has had. His morals and leadership ended slavery in the United States, and began the long, slow process of reaching racial equality here. One hundred years ago, in honor of his memory, the US Mint created the Lincoln penny; which has become

Mario Kart: Wii; I now have one star next to my name, and I just unlocked Mii Outfit B. I've unlocked everything that there is to unlock in the game, and tomorrow, I begin the daunting process of getting two, and then three stars next to my name!

What a week, oh boy. Had a field trip to Bismarck today... we visited the capitol building and sat in on the meetings of the Senate and House of Representatives. I was able to sit on the House floor next to Representative Mike Schatz (who's from my district). I was able to talk with him for quite a while, and every time a vote was called, he told me how he was going to vote, and I got to push the switch that counted as his vote! So many awesome things went on, and I'm going to try to registe
