~The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and leaky tire. ~It's always darkest before dawn.

Be afraid children. For BP's spilling of oil just before hurricane season has unleashed a storm of fire upon the United States. Also whoever you're voting for in the midterms is going to lose because of it.

Just one more step on their slow march to world domination.

I'll bet this stops the signal from being killed just as effectively, and it's witty.

My hair has my blog back! All internet references aside though, it's good to be back, even if only for a few days. On that note, both due to about 800 PM's that I'm still clearing out blocking up my inbox and missing my blog when I had a lot of stuff to go on about, I really miss my premier membership. However I'm still strapped for cash from buying the new computer, and with college in a year or two I can't exactly afford to buy myself some more. I hate myself for asking this since I detest asking for donations, but is there any chance any of you value my content enough to help me out? I'll make it worthwhile, not sure how, but I'll have something by the end of summer in return for it, I promise that much. ...And that was the sound of my pride dying a painful death.

For this, Seattle, the below image, which I regret is all I can do, is for all of your citizens:

When I got a new computer I lost my URL logs. If I read/used to read your blog, tell me and give me a link!

Summarizing statement!

Don't mind me, I'm just making a new country. Probably not going to be recognized by the UN, but if Sealand and Molossia are sovereign states, The UPP is too.

Why does this game's setting make me think of WWII Europe?

Celebrate it or be destroyed.

There is an oil spill about half the size of Maryland in the gulf of Mexico. A much bigger story I'd rather hear because, I don't know, it's actually legitimately important. Sure it's cool that a guy in Arizona flies via a balloon chair, and it's nice that a guy who owns a pretzel stand dances in his spare time, but the biggest environmental disaster ever is happening right now. Cover that instead. Heck, we still don't know what caused it, use this as a chance to prove you're the best network, use this as a chance to prove your journalists and investigators are better than the other guy, don't give me useless stories that are nice but unimportant. Give me the thing that has potential to effect the world at large instead of a few people in a small town somewhere. Do your job. For crying out loud, while I may love his work, Jon Stewart, a comedian, should not be better at your job than you are. Your job is to give me the news. His job is to be funny. Not the other way around. You can try to be both, but when something like this happens, pay attention to it, let Jon make the jokes, don't shovel the seriousness onto him.

And Now, I Use My Blog As A Soapbox For Crazy Fan Theories About Stuff
Necro posted a blog entry in blogs_blog_698
Today's topic: The two Fire Emblem console games. I smell spoilers! » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «One could argue that the entire plot of the two console games was a huge plan by Mad King Ashnard and former Daein general Greil, Ike's father. After Greil killed his wife/Player Ike's mother when he went mad from the power of Lehran's Medallion/the Fire Emblem, the two recognized the item was too powerful to be left in the hands of mortals. It couldn't be destroyed however, as that was impossible to do safely and the other option was releasing a Goddess to destroy the world. The two came to the conclusion that, at the time, the medallion was too powerful to be destroyed, however they could create a situation to allow it's destruction. And so, Greil left Daein with the medallion. During this time, both he and Ashnard trained to ascertain their ultimate states as warriors. During this time, Greil trained his son, Ike, to surpass him. Soren, who may also have been in on it, now left on a mission to send word to Ashnard that the time was right, at which Ashnard invaded Crimea. For the plan, Princess Elincia has to stay alive so that there's a reason for Ike to save Crimea, which also explains why the soldiers are only trying to kill the mercenaries instead of Elincia as well. Greil's company rescues Elincia, then head to Gallia. Along the way, The Black Knight, who, as well as Soren, may have been in on it, only probably instead of maybe, kills Greil before Ike's eyes in order to keep Ike burning to try and reach Daein rather than settling in Gallia. Once they have the support of either Begnion or Gallia, they march on Daein. This also explains why a company of mercenaries and a single regiment of soldiers can steamroll through two nation's defenses, as Ashnard would have to allow them in for the plan. After taking Daein and turning towards Ashnard's new keep in Crimea, they once more fight their way to the palace, this time to fight Ashnard. This is where the plan comes to a head; the Black Knight, who, as the sequel reveals, survived his fight with Ike, gauged Ike's strength to inform Ashnard. If the Black Knight bested Ike, then nothing was to fear and the would fall to Ashnard's men, Ashnard would rule the world, and the crisis of the medallion awakening would be averted. If he defeated the Black Knight, then they would cut through to Ashnard. Once at Ashnard, if Ike lost to the King of Daein, then once more, Ashnard rules the world, no problems. If Ike defeated Ashnard, then a warrior who should(And in the end is) be strong enough to defeat the Goddess, which he does in the finale of the sequel, is created, and the medallion can go ahead and awaken, because darnit, Ike will kill stuff three times over with one slash until all is right in the world again. In short, Greil created Ike, a warrior who would either fall to Ashnard and allow the world to be rules peacefully, or defeat Ashnard and be strong enough to defeat the Goddess and save the world. -
Do you recall my praise of Gurren Lagann? Well, take the show, and turn it into a Buddy Cop show. Not like this. Not modern realistic buddy cop that tries to be dark and gritty and ends up being a bit inane. Like this; Cheesy 80's buddy cop style with over-the-topness, good cop/bad cop pairing and ridiculous outfits and cars. Greatest fan serialization concept ever. Whether or not it holds up to it's concept, I'm not sure, I just stumbled upon it and have read the basic premise summary. But we shall find out!

Sure, Lincoln had a secret radioactive train in his hat made out of kryptonite to help fight Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee, and George Washington fought British soldiers with a greataxe, and FDR had secretly installed B.A.R.'s for Nazi-killing in his wheelchair, and JFK conquered the moon and became it's emperor posthumously. But President Obama is also a superhero who can fight an entire crew of pirates and win singlehandedly. Can you say "Greatest superpresident ever"?

Are on opposing ends of the political spectrum. Saying someone is both is like saying black is also white.

I now see why people call this a masterpiece of an RPG. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «The ending...everything fit together seemingly perfectly. From the way the tower collapsed, to the run down it, to the final fight with Ganon, to the final moment where he's stabbed in the forehead, and the ending sequence, it was brilliant, for lack of a better word, especially considering it was made with 1998 technology.[/spoilers]

Does anyone know where I can find the font everyone used to put their alias up for their ominous, faceless televised messages? I'd love to have that font.

Not sure what to call it. Dust fills my eyes, as I look up to the skies, Nothing seems quite right, it's as if today has become tonight. When all is laid to rest, when the rising sun finally sets, Will justice be served to those to whom it's deserved, on the eve of the fall of that which governs it all? It continues on all around, this mockery of righteousness made to confound, Until we all just nod our heads, saying nothing for fear of disturbing the dead, Those who've found peace from this mess of sleaze. But no rest an be found in modern times, when we crucify the first chance given, And mourn the minute we're breathless. The ending no longer eclipses the ride, with us swimming just to feel the tide, And in the end, is that all we're going to do, with no worthy ending until out lives are through? Also I wrote something about a guy finding out his father's getting remarried, going off, getting drunk, buying a gun, shooting his father, then going to jail last night. I'm very happy, yet I'm writing all sorts of depressing stuff, can someone please explain what's going on with me?

So, I'm replaying Ocarina of Time. Can someone please explain to me why, in the second fire dungeon, every key so far has been inside a prisoner's cell? That's like decapitating the person you're protecting.

If you're going to be killed and need someone to save you, do not ask this man. He will manage to piece it all together and arrive just as you're dying. Unless you're the last of a set of deaths, in chich case he'll just barely save you.

Who's with me?
