So, just the other day I realized that when I got my new laptop, I didn't transfer all the bionicle animations I had saved from the computer I was using. Problem is, I already deleted them off the other computer assuming I could just download them from the same website that I did before. Well guess what, that website is good as gone. :annoyed2:
I've tried using a program to download them from a video hosting site but they end up low-res, small, and smooshed.
I tried looking on BZP as I re
No doubt you all have noticed my relative lack of blogging and just BZP in general (Except for the NMQ&A for some reason... *shrug*). Well, I'm not going to make any excuses, just give the cold, hard facts.
There are a number of reasons I've been ignoring BZP for the most part lately. First and foremost would be work. As I've mentioned in the past I'm sure I had been getting a lot more hours than usual. And now that I've just recently received a promotion, that pretty much locks the near-
There's an old saying that goes "The worst day of fishing is still better than the best day at work". Now, I love fishing, but I gotta tell ya, yesterday was the best day at work EVER. Even better than one particular day of fishing I remember from last year.
6:30 AM I got up to do the laundry because I knew that if I wanted clean, dry clothes for work, I couldn't wait for my sister to get up (she's got laundry duty this month). I really wasn't sure what to make of the shift I was about to wor
Clawing his way back on top again, Ynot takes the prize a second time!
As for why this is two days late, well, check the next entry to be up shortly.
Aflac smoke! Don't breathe this...

That's what American Idol would be without Adam Lambert and that new judge Kara-what's-'er-face.
He looks incredibly disgusting.
She is incredibly annoying.
'Nuff said.
<brk>
Yesterday was Mother's Day. I don't need an excuse for that.
Winner this week was Xaeraz due to the simplicity and truthfulness of his entry.
Now then, as to why I haven't been very active on BZP the past week: I've been winding down from some more major events at work. We switched to a whole new POSale system and I've had to do a lot of training/retraining and just plain making sure we don't all get our butts kicked.
This week's picture, not sure where I got the idea. But then, I say t
So, I just finished watching the debut of Daughtry's new single, "No Surprise", on American Idol. It's the first single from their album "Leave This Town" set to be released on July 14.
All I gotta say is, that song rocks. And I was already planning on getting the new album, but now I just can't wait.

Well, first matter first as always. The winner for the caption part of the contest is, once again, Gerlicky!
As for the second part where I was accepting submissions for this week's picture? Well, nobody won.
Nobody sent one in.
So I'm just gonna have to throw together something lame again.
Carth Onasi's "Don't Attract Attention" plan didn't work so well with an eager Glatorian on the team...

EDIT: C'mon, people! Haven't you heard of SPOILER TAGS?
So last night I went to the midnight showing of "X-Men Origins: Wolverine". Since I see that nobody has yet put together a review, figure I'll do so.
First off, let me say that, according to rumor, there are two different endings to the movie that were being showed in different theaters (or perhaps just on different screens), so my review may differ from one with an alternate ending. Also, obviously this review will have spoilers, tho
Just a question for y'all.
As we know now that Glatorian are the Great Beings' "original Toa" in-a-way, suppose there was something between the two. Which sounds like a better title for this "species"? Glatoa, taking elements from both names, or Ptoa (pronounced the same as "Toa"; the "P" is silent) almost as though, but not literally, it mean Preliminary/Prototype Toa?
I actually think I just made up my mind, as one makes far more sense to use than the other given my use for the term, but
First off, this week's winner is (almost non-surprisngly given how often he is) Tor Skirata!
Secondly, this week's contest is two-fold. As a 35th week special, I'm going to give you all a chance to submit a picture to be used in a caption contest! It can be anything, just as long as it's in accordance with BZP's rules and such 'cetera. Also, I'd rather these were PM'ed to me to keep this entry cleaner.
Thirdly, don't know how the idea for this week's pic popped in my head. Don't ask.
Just a couple quick updates on the status of my writing projects.
First and foremost, I do realize that I'ts been just over two weeks since the last chapter of Toast Busters was posted. This is mainly because of a surge in work hours and other general increases of busy-ness. But don't worry, I haven't forgotten and shall be getting to work on it shortly.
Secondly, but almost as importantly, I've been getting what little work I can done on the new Epic. I have a tenative title as I'm sure y
First Monday I've had off in longer than I can remember.
And what better way to spend it than:
Playing Jedi Outcast
Working on my epic
Shattering the Global High Score list on Audiosurf playing co-op with my sister
Reporting about a half-dozen posts
Forgetting to pay my credit card bill (it's not due until next Tuesday anyways)
And chatting it up with an ollllllld work buddy on Facebook
<brk>
So, I just recently found out that I wasn't the only BZPer to play the awesome game called "Audiosurf" which I recently acquired through Steam. Turns out Swert plays it too. B)
Anyone else out there?
And if you don't know what "Audiosurf" is, look it up. One of the best ten bucks I ever spent on a computer game.

A number of good ones this week. But there can only be one winner so this round it's gonna be Blade Titan974.
So, I was gonna avoid a video game screenshot this week as I think I've kinda overdone them, but after what happened while playing Jedi Outcast this week, I just HAD to use this one. Basically, I was in Lando's ship when I used the command console to spawn a random stormtrooper to play with. I decided to use Force Grip and throw him against the wall. I wasn't expecting his corpse to G
Yesterday was Easter. Of course I was too busy!
Anyways, a returning winner this week. Sue Storm Turakii #1 Lavasurfer.
Easter may be over, but I figure everyone is probably still in the spirit enough for this week's picture...
In a previous life, Scott Summers was the Easter Bunny's bodyguard...

I was so desperate to find this game, I did some searching and found the game online. Not sure just how long it will be there though.
It appears that it can in fact save progress to some degree, though there seems to be a weird glitch with the credits. But what I'm really looking for is somebody who's got the know-how to make it run off-line. I tried simply downloading the file, but it doesn't load for some reason. It worked before in the old days, but I belive it was a .swf. What I found is
So, a friend and I are having a little disagreement as to which is better: Starbucks or Caribou Coffee.
I've decided to run a little poll to see what you guys think and prove which one is better (which I shall not state yet in order to maintain unbiased-ness)!
VOTE NOW!
<brk>
Some good responses this week. There was a little conflict in my mind as to which one should be the winner, but in the end, I felt the most creative one was Gerlicky's (better get them bones fix'd!).
So, I was going to do something non-game related this week, but I had no time yesterday and already this is a day late, so I'm gonna have to stick you with another screenie. Won't have enough time to do something otherwise before work today.
