So turns out I'm going to have a new neighbour spending the night in my building. Don't know if you've heard of him, goes by the name of Hu Jintao. He's apparently a pretty big deal, like the president of China or something.
Yeah, that's right, Hu Jintao is my neighbour now. B) Granted, I'm in a part of the building that's completely locked off from him and there are police EVERYWHERE so I'll probably never see him, but that's a lot closer than most of you will probably ever get.
Now t
A little something I thought of today with regards to being unique: there's a difference between standing out and sticking out. I have great respect for the former and great disdain for the latter.
This has been philosophy with SPIRIT. Tune in next time to see an explanation of why everyone in the world is incredibly stupid, especially SPIRIT.
So my body has decided that it likes to play jokes on me and it has formed a cluster of acne on my forehead in the shape of a lightning bolt. Doesn't even have the decency to supply me with magic powers to compensate.
Guns, scary elves, and bail; suspect freed
By The Canadian Press
MONTREAL - A man who allegedly armed himself with high-powered weapons because he believed elves were stalking him has been granted bail.
David Abitbol will have to respect a number of conditions which include surrendering his firearms and not using electronic devices like computers to communicate with others.
His father has also agreed to post $25,000 bail.
Testimony at his bail hearing revealed that Abitbol thought
So I'm going through some old files and I find this. You might've already seen something similar to it in a previous blog entry, but here's a longer/alternate version I wrote for some unknown reason and rather than let it rot on my hard drive, I thought I'd post it here.

Little town
It's a quiet village

So yeah, today's my half birthday. I can hardly believe it's been six months already since then and yet, so much has happened in that time.
I'd also like to take this time to mention three groups of people I don't like:
1) Music snobs. Who do you think you are?! What gives you the right?!
2) People who sign into IM programs with their status set to as "Away". Who do you think you are?! What gives you the right?!
3) People who make short online videos with intros that are like tw
Greetings, blog readers.
I would like to make this entry today as a call to arms against the RPG forum. For too long it has been ruled by dull, rule-bound games with massive walls of text. No one wants to read an entire novel if they want to play a roleplay game! Recently, I entered the RPG contest with a very short entry and there was outrage. And why should there be? I didn't break any of the rules and for once you didn't need three hours just to read the darn thing.
So if you hate
Well, I think it's time to lay my good friend The Funny Messages Content Block to rest. He had a good run. He served as a repository for old messages I put in the Flash banner I used to use before I got lazy. Now, though, I think it's time to remove him for good. The messages he once held will now be displayed in this blog entry, allowed to sink into the obscurity of my blog. They might not have always been funny... or made sense... but they... well, here they are.

SPIRIT:
Aw man, my topic got closed due to someone reviving it? When I'm admin, that'll be the first thing to go.
-Bionicleman-:
Not so long as I'm around.
SPIRIT:
Well, in that case, you're banned.
-Bionicleman-:
Hmmm... Nice try, but only an admin can do that.
Dorek:
Well, he could be the future admin.
SPIRIT:
Yeah. So you have to do what I tell you.
-Bionicleman-:
Not yet I don't. And with an attitude like that, I'm afraid you're shaping up to be a pretty pathetic ad

Waaaaaaaaaaaait a minute.
So, for those of you who don't know, I am no longer living in Canada and I'm living in Nice, France for the year as I study French as part of an exchange with my school.
When I have time, I'll probably update my blog with details on this trip as well as my summer, but a lot of my time has been devoted to settling in and exploring.
Since I'm not really interested in going through the rigmarole of getting patents for these things, here are four inventions that need to exist. Go ahead, steal my ideas, just someone please invent them.
1) An iPhone that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. All I want to do is have all the features of my iPod Touch, but also be able to make calls so that I don't have to carry around both my cellphone and my iPod. I don't want 4G Internet, GPS, or any of that crazy stuff, I just want to make cal

A mash-up of this scene from The Matrix and this scene from Deathly Hallows will occur -- I guarantee it.
Whoa, that’s a full post. All the way.
Double post, oh my god.
It’s a double post all the way.
Whoa, that’s so intense. Whoa, man. Wow. Whoa. Whoa.
WHOAAAA-OH OH. OH MY GOD, WHOA MY GOD. WOOO! AW, OH MY GOD. OHHH, OHHH WOW. WOOOOOOOOO! OH MY WOWWWW. WOOOOOOOOO! YEAHHH- OHH MY—
OHH MY AHHH aw my god, look at that! It’s starting to even look like a triple post!
Oh my god it’s full on! Double post all the way across the forum.
Oh my god, [sobs] oh my god, oh god…

Pohatu: Well, it appears that Lesovikk may have killed the ruler of the Matoran underworld.
Kopaka: If you ask me... this is one heck of a crime. B)
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
My Pokéwalker went through the laundry... AND SURVIVED!
And accumulated over 1 300 steps to boot.
In your face, Nintendo!
Which is more than I can say for my LEGO Harry Potter game, in which I've become trapped in a room with a white dragon with no escape (and I've done some Google searches that confirm this is a glitch). I hope TT releases a patch soon...
Alright, here are some parts of songs floating about my brain that should be made into real songs.
1) This one is for when you're waiting at the airport for your flight, which never seems to come.
Can we pretend that shooting stars
In the night sky
Are like aeroplanes?
'Cause I could really use a flight right now (flight right now, flight right now)
2) Here's the start of the opening musical number to BIONICLE: The Musical.

You know what they say, easy come easy go.
This morning, a certain popular video hosting website contacted me saying that my BIONICLE In Under Two Minutes video that I had posted there was eligible for consideration of getting Google ads on it so that I would make money off of it. So I registered with their money making thing and sent my video to them, not particularly hopeful that I'd make it in (due to every image being copyrighted ), but I figured it couldn't hurt to try. Turns out, I wa
It's super effective!
So most of you won't know this, but today there was an earthquake on the border of Quebec and Ontario that I felt all the way in ADDRESS WITHHELD. They say it measured 5.0 and it even hit some of the north eastern states.
Where I live, it wasn't too bad; the wall shook a little and rattled a picture frame, but nothing was damaged. I thought a truck had driven by or something, but when I looked outside, there was no truck, so I was a bit confused until I heard ab
So, as most of you probably don't know, when Tahu killed all the Rahkshi in the last comic with the golden armour, he actually gained their powers. Now, according to Greg, not every type of Rahkshi would have been sent on the invasion of Bara Magna so he probably doesn't have all 42 powers, but if you were in charge of the storyline, which powers would you give Tahu, which ones would you not give him, and why? (For your convenience, here's my Flash Kraata Maker).
So here's what I think:
The following is a public service announcement for the benefit of all those from English speaking backgrounds.
Hi, there. I'm SPIRIT. If you're like me, then your family originated in an English speaking country. Why, they've practically been speaking English since the days of King Arthur. Now, if you're like me, then you probably have friends that do not come from English speaking backgrounds. Sure, their English might be good, heck, even their parents' English might be good, but for so
So we've all heard of people running across North America several times. It's been done -- old news.
What I'd like to see is someone run from Alert, Nunavut to Cape Horn, Chile. Now THAT would be an impressive feat.
