FOR SCIENCE! (2)Frozen Wings (AKA: Toronto how we hate thee) Yes, you are seeing correctly. I am keeping some sort of a schedule. This is the SECOND night of FOR SCIENCE! And hopefully I will continue to be inspired enough to write MOAR AND MOAR.
However I will say that it is difficult to pull a subject out of my b….rain, every day. So PLEASE do submit ideas for what you want to see me write about, PLEASE.
Anyhow, this time it is a short story about a LOVELY TRIP I TOOK TO NOWHERE.

Enjoy. Sleep.
Four minutes to live
Four minutes and counting. That’s what they said.
I’m scared…less scared than I expected, but still frightened enough that I’m unable to quell the nervous sweat that’s creeping to my skin. Nor am I able to take control over my breathing which has become more and more erratic as the seconds pass.
Four minutes and counting. Four minutes to live.

Okay, this is a big occasion for me, I must admit. I hadn't even thought of until now, but It is a gigantic thing for me to say that FOR SCIENCE! has now reached the double digits. For me that is a momentous occasion.
However I'm sure that some of you are quite displeased with this being late, so it's time that I explained. Every Thursday night I go to a seminar in downtown Vancouver, this is quite a distance from my native White Rock and thus I end up getitng home incr
This is a tiny mini-entry dedicated to all the many people who asked how I format my FOR SCIENCE! entries, or more particularly, how I get the "More..." button.
Look it up yourself.
Seriously, it's right in the code list, that's how I found it. I trust that all of you can do the same.
But, because I'm way too nice. If you are unable to find the proper code I will include below the cut.

Yeah, that's it.
Don't you feel silly now? =B
I was driving on the freeway in the fast lane
With a rabid wolverine in my underwear
When suddenly a guy behind me in the back seat
Popped right up and cupped his hands across my eyes
I guessed, "Is it Uncle Frank or Cousin Louie?"
"Is it Bob or Joe or Walter?"
"Could it be Bill or Jim or Ed or Bernie or Steve?"
I probably would have kept on guessing
But about that time we crashed into the truck
And as I'm laying bleeding there on the asphalt
Finally I recognize the face of my hiba

This is just a concept I was toying with today, it's a bit interesting in my opinion but harder than I expected to develop.

Epilogue
24 Hours after the world ended.
Oh yes, I know just how strange it seems to see those words…imagine how it feels to be scrawling them on this page. Then again, I seem to be assuming this page will even be found—or perhaps I’m simply trying to keep myself sane by inventing a new persona with which to interact. Well

Yes, yes. It has taken me far too long to get back into FOR SCIENCE! But the past is past, let's move on with the future, yes?
Good.
Truth be told, I don't actually feel that bad because I still wrote. Those of you who've seen my Streams of Conciousness entry know that, but I also spent most of yesterday writing a 7 page MONSTER of a story--those of you wondering why it's not going on here...well, let's just say it's not exactly BZP appropriate, and only those who kn
Okay guys, that's it. It's time to sit down, simmer down, and just CHILL.
I (as in I as a person, rather than I as a Global Moderator) am SICK of the constant bickering and back-and-forth going on all over the forums. Including right here in my own blog.
I FULLY support debates, and enjoy them quite a bit, truth be told. But this isn't debating, there is nothing respectful or even civilized. This is a constant nattering between two groups who refuse to listen to each other.
So stop

Late. I know. I'm a terrible person who has been busy and lazy lately. This story came to me last night before I went to bed and is probably better than what I'd had planned beforehand.
I hope to have a second story up today, and then both days missed will be made up for.
Yarr.

I will be updating with TWO (That's right, two) stories tomorrow. I'm stuck at a friends and have only limited time and access. And also no ideas, and it's late.
And when it's late I maaek speallign aerrrors.
Okay, those were deliberate, but you get the idea.
See you tomorrow!

It finally happened to me. I found my Mass Effect Dilemma. Everyone tells me about their Mass Effect Dilemma, where they didn't know what to choose--and while I know I still have a doozy coming up (I spoiled myself years in advance) I found my first one last night. I've been completing loyalty quests for fun, and so far I've done: Miranda, Jacob, Jack, and Tali. I was in the middle of Garrus'--or rather at the end. Spoilers inevitably follow: And I'm going to be honest I didn't kno

Yes. I missed yesterday. I was so ill that I fell asleep at 8:30 PM and still felt tired and ill upon awakening. I am feeling better-ish now.
I need to make some sort of header for my FOR SCIENCE entries. its got to be easier than constantly typing out all that code.

I'm a terrible person who was terrible for updates last week. I know.
But I have ideas for this week, and PLEASE bug me if I don't update. I want to update on time and stuff.
Anyhow this is an idea that came to me sometime earlier this week...it's rough. Very rough, I'm not really that impressed with it--however the concept isn't complete.

This is a ramble, this is just random jibberish. If you can make any point of the below story I truly commend you because I started writing at 11:00 PM and finished at 1:26 AM with a barely sensical story. I really should start on these earlier in the day.

Well I missed two days last week, one of them was because of a testing at our academy (Which I had to judge for) and the second of which was I was lazy and making excuses. Seriously people, bug me if you want stories.
Is this short? Oh yes. Did I have to literally grind this one of out my brain? OH YES.
But it's done now. Now I can stop worrying about it.

YES. UPDATE TWO IS SEMI-ON TIME. I still have half-an-hour my by clock. Hush.
I've also decided to split this group up more than I'd anticipated. This marks the Introduction to BIONICLE: Judgement, 2004 and 2005 will be covered in subsequent entries.
Not much preamble this time. In fact this is it, once this sentence ends the preamble ends. Period.
BIONICLE: Judgement
A Reimagining
For those of you wondering, BIONICLE: Judgement is the current name of my long-standing alternaverse--
Well I must apologise for lack of living. Once again I was surfing along happily before the eldritch tentacle of real life clamped down and dragged me beneath the surface.
But once again I've managed to escape that hideous unnameable thing, so with luck I will---do stuff?
Really, my presence online is going to be decreasing because real life is consuming my very soul, however I felt it was time to put forth an initiative that I've been thinking about for a while.
You see, one of the rea

I'm not sure where the inspiration for this one came from. Perhaps it was the fact that as I left the office today the sun had burned away the morning mist and left only beautiful blue sky with a brilliant sun shining down. Of course the fact that my music swelled at that exact moment could have also helped.
Regardless, the entire originating point of this story comes about midway through. See if you can find it!
Anyhow, as usual, gimme challenges and stuff. C'mon g
That's right, if you read that title up there you'll realize I'm tired of this blog and I'll be deleting it within a few days. This is the end.
Haha, no.
The title up there refers to The End, by master author Lemony Snicket of the Series of Unfortunate Events. In fact when we first discovered the thirteenth unfortunate book in the tragic tale of the Baudelaire orphans it was known as that At this time called The End. Frankly, upon retrospect and finishing the book myself I agree with th
