What a waste of a great car. I mean, if anything, the guy should've been enjoying the ability to drive the car, not using his cell phone. Just goes to show that having a fast or precise car doesn't always make someone a good driver. Honestly, the thing that scares me the most about this is that people like this are on the road every day--if anything, this speaks volumes about the dangers of using a cell-phone while driving.
Next time you're having a bad day, just be glad you aren't this guy.
So can anyone give me an honest explanation as to why this one guy is in like, everybody's signatures now? It feels like BZP's equivalent to "Where's Waldo?" or something.
Just a heap of random updates because I haven't said anything here in a while:
-I highly suggest that you check these two blog entries out. They address a few things that I think BZPers have been ignoring as of late. I'd write something like those two highly intelligible members have, but I'd just be repeating them and therefore wasting my time.
-It's that BBCC time again, in which most members seem to disregard a few guidelines. I'd specifically point you to this one.
-So, nine days in
...but none will answer the door!
(If you know what that's from, then you're immediately awesome. )
So yeah, managed to get my SSAO P3 entry in just literally seconds over the time limit. Not sure if I'm officially into the contest yet, but I'd rather have readers after the contest so I can make edits. Because of time, I was forced to publish the entry without doing any proofreading or editing whatsoever, so I can only cross my fingers and pray that everything is in order. Anyway, good luc
In a way, I have no idea where the inspiration for this story came from other than nostalgia. I was listening to some music from Super Mario 64, and my mind just took off on its own road. I just started writing without any particular goal, and managed to accomplish two things for the first time: writing something short (), and writing something the moment I thought about it. I'm honestly very pleased that I overcame these two hurdles to write this. I hope you'll check it out, and I also hope tha
So the last F1 race of the year was run today, and I can honestly say I wasn't exactly impressed. Usually nothing can take my attention away from an F1 race, but I barely payed attention to the last twenty laps or so. There were very few overtaking moves at all, and honestly not much to remember from the race other than the track. The only highlights of the race were Kamui Kobayashi passing newly-crowned world champ Jenson Button and a battle for second between Mark Webber and Button towards the
Even if you aren't really a follower of Formula One or racing in general, I suggest you read this. It's mildly amusing, to say the least. *lol*
I got quite a kick out of this. I can't remember the last time F1 drivers argued like these two. I must say it's quite hilarious.
At long last, my brother and I have finally gotten an account on Majhost/Brickshelf. Of course, this means that we can at last upload/host our own custom avatars and banners.
It also means that you guys will be seeing some screenshots from Island of Doom very soon. Stay tuned!
EDIT: So I've got a new signature now. Whaddaya think?
Thanks to everyone else on Team Yes who participated in the creation of our story. It was a pleasure working with all of you, and I'm very glad we came out on top. Excellent work everyone, and be sure to keep writing!
The Brazilian GP today saw the crowning of a first-time Formula One World Champion: Jenson Button. Although I would've rather seen either of his rvials win the championship more than him, Button showed one heck of a race today.
The race was entertaining at the start, with plenty of mayhem throughout the field, but a little more boring towards the end. Kamui Kobayashi is officially one of my favorite drivers; after the bold moves he showed today, he's exactly what F1 has been missing these las
Just realized I haven't posted anything here in a long while. I've been sort of inactive lately for a variety of reasons, but in the coming days I'm hoping to get back into posting/reporting/random stuff. I've been meaning to get some of my writing topics cleaned up and also post some new stuff soon, so keep an eye out.
If the entry title is confusing, that's the level naming scheme for Doom/IoD. "E" stands for "Episode", "M" stands for "Map". E1M5 in IoD is going to be set in a series of mining tunnels, and is certainly the most customized level the game will have to offer, featuring a number of lifts/elevators, a mutagenic river, and a few teleports as well. The music is going to be fast-paced as well; something that'll probably make you want to run faster through the winding claustrophobic tunnels while toas
I'm not sure why, but the forums have just been feeling different lately. I don't know what it is, but the whole place just seems to be less inviting for some reason. It might have something to do with all the name change fads, because no one is who they normally are, but something just seems to be amiss.
Anyone else think so?

Island of Doom
Story: You are a lone Toa, with no known past and no planned future. You make a living in the Matoran Universe by being a treasure hunter. Travelling to the farthest charted regions of the Matoran world, you collect important artifacts or other items sought by many in order to gain profit. When there is word that six traitorous Skakdi thieves have found the Mask of Shadows and left for Voya Nui shortly after, you trek posthaste to the forgotten island in search of Makuta's cove
It's been a long-awaited plan of mine to go back and touch up my only existing epic, Search and Destroy. Finally, I've found the time to start making revisions. If you've read any of my work other than S&D, then you shouldn't expect much from it. The writing quality is much lower, and I've since adopted a higher standard in what I want to have posted here on BZP. As such, I'm going back and revising much of the epic, making some relatively big changes to the style of narration and descriptio
So that's that then. I don't dislike Alonso, but I'm not really a fan of him either. Kimi, on the other hand, is probably my favorite driver in the field right now, and he'll be going to McLaren, of all teams. Looks like I'll be rooting for Vettel next year.
EDIT: Kimi's not even confirmed at McLaren yet. I'd honestly rather have him retire at the end of the year than race anywhere else.
Finally finished up some lingering schoolwork today, so I should have the next day or two at least to work on stuff for Island of Doom or maybe even revising my epic (it needs it). I'll let you know what I decide to work on first.
Oh, and for those curious about Island of Doom ('cause I'm sure there are so many of you ), I'll be giving out some of the first details before the week is out. My brother and I have been keeping this under wraps since shortly after we joined BZP, and we've got a bu
You honestly thought I'd have something worthwhile to say in my first entry?
So I finally decided to make a blog. It took me a moment to get everything set up, and I'm not quite sure I'm done yet, but it's a start. Thanks to all my friends who encouraged me to make this; I wasn't planning to until I saw the amount of support you guys showed for it. I can't think of much else to say, honestly!
