Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving BZPowerites,   What are you thankful for this time of year?   I am most thankful for all that God has done for me, my family(and pig), and for having this neat little site to let me post my writings!

All 4 Wisdom Teeth

Gone. Ripped out Monday in less than five hours. Went home, and turned out I'm allergic to the anesthesia, so I was puking sick the rest of the day. Didn't sleep hardly at all last night, and now I'm hooked up on pain killers and can't feel anything.     I guess I could say I'm in a better mood now than I was over the weekend.

BZPRPG Marvel/DC Characters

Over the course of the next few weeks, I will be making BZPRPG characters based exactly on Marvel/DC Characters. These types of characters are affectionately(actually, not at all. They are hated pretty much everywhere except on a certain RP site I cannot mention.) known as "Carbons," as in "carbon copy."   My starting character is most likely going to be Daredevil. (Mattew Muridock, perhaps?) Any fan favorites around here?                       *Author's Note: I will not be using these charact

Really people?

So, I decided, "Hey! I really don't know much about this Bionicle business at all, and dragging myself through a wiki is no fun, so let's go read discussion topics on BZPower! Might be worth it!"   So I sat down and started digging through Storyline, Bionicle Discussion, and so on.....     Good Lord, people, it's a toyline. It's a toy, it's a toy, and will be nothing more than a toy. And you guys are fighting? Insulting each other? Some of this stuff is almost on par with the comment sections

On my RPG, my Stories, Star Wars, and HALO 5

RPG:   Turns out describing locations without going, "It's a square. There's some tables. You eat food here. Move along" just doesn't cut it. I hate describing things without life in it.     Stories:   Is it a custom here to just upvote stuff and never comment? Upvotes don't tell anybody anything except that you "liked" it. LIKED IT WHY? WE WANT TO KNOW JOHNNY.   Star Wars:   Mega hype. Not buying tickets. I'll see it in a year when it hits the dollar movies. I can't get excited after the mes

So, a quick recap of Bionicle 2001-2004?

So read the storyline for Bionicle, 2001-2004(?)....this is what I got from it.     Makuta is jealous of Mata Nui and slips him some sleeping pills, and the island of Mata Nui is supposedly made cold and crops don't grow(wheat? Corn? They don't say.). Anyways, the Turaga, the old ones, get Takua to summon the Toa Mata from the heavens to show up and kick Makuta butt. Turns out falling from the heavens makes you forget everything, even your name.   They recover, they kinda beat Makuta, and then

Harry Turtledove's Southern Victory Series

Or otherwise known as Victory-191 Series.   The premise of the entire series is that the Union actually lost the American Civil War, and the Confederacy existed all the way up to 1945(ish). The point of change, or divergence, is that a series of plans Robert E. Lee created were not captured by Union Scouts in 1862. The plans, Order 191, instead made their way safely to Lee's men, the attack was carried out, and the Union had to surrender.   The series is composed of 11 books, split into one st

Thinking of writing a comedy...

Plenty of material in the Toy lore to make fun of, twist, and make ridiculous. Heck, some of it is already pretty ridiculous(Planet gets shattered, into two perfectly sized moons that take all the jungle and water with it? RIIIIIGHT.).   Of course, I am a romantic. If I'm going to write something longer than a short story, I'm going to interject romance into it one way or another(This, coming from the guy that's fallen hopelessly in love with his best friend(and can't even tell her(long story.)

The Dog is Screaming

Like always. He sits at the door to my room, screaming and crying because my pig won't let him into the room. Then my pig sometimes chases him away to great noise and event.     Needless to say, this makes writing, or doing anything, a hard task.

Little brother is playing Call of Duty...

...and talking to a friend we know. So, I ask him to tell her "Hi." for me, over the mic. He does it, pauses a second, then relays back that she said "I don't like you." Lil bro pauses and tacks on:     "Well, it isn't like that's the first time you've heard that from a girl."     Ah, family....

American Empire: The Victorious Opposition

Ending to a mostly MEH series. Not enough action, just a lot of dialogue explaining that there will be action. Not terribly pleased, but the ending was definitely exciting with the outbreak of the Second Great War(World War II in our history.).   I noticed Turtledove, the author, repeated himself a lot in the writing. Yes, we know this POV Character works in a canning factory, and yes we know she pulls three levers, and yes we know she lost a husband in the war, and YES FOR GOODNESS' SAKES WE K

Books, Books, Books

Be warned, readers!   I have a deep, shameless love for books of all kinds. I have been seriously considering starting my own library, operating out of my room. Could work, I think.   Something I've always wanted to do was post reviews of books, and this blog seems like a great place to do it! Review books, and get books recommendations.     So, BZPower, any books that you've adored that you care to share with the Titan upstairs?

First Post, Obviously

Ah, well, I went and did it, I became a Premier Member of BZPower. Why?   Well, honestly it wasn't because of Bionicle. I had no idea what Bionicle was in fact when I first joined here over a month ago. No clue at all. I was told to come here for the BZPRPG, actually. That it was a better RPG to get into; active, semi-friendly, and somewhat competent moderators. Now I can vouch for the first one, but I haven't been around long enough to actually say anything on the last two promises made to me.
