I plan to send all the stuff I was planning to send to Brickfestair to Brickcon, wish me luck!
Once again my hopes have been foiled by school, I've spent so much time preparing for exams (I have chem tonight) and fooling around that I don't have any time left to get any mocs to arpy before Oct 1. Oh well.
So we use an online homework system here at school. We have a different set of providers for each subject, Wiley Plus for the physics, Webassign for the calc, and Mastering Chemistry for chem.
Its certainly different, and the problems are often challenging, which is good. The thing I really like is that each program gives you feedback on your answers when you get them wrong. Unfortunately questions for everyone are different, lol.
Love Lockdown is the new single by Kanye West. I dunno, the lyrics are definately Kanye-ish to me, but the actual music doesn't really seem o be his, it's a good song, but I think I'll have to listen to it a bit more...
Excited? I have been for a while now.
I was very impressed with DV's entry in the contest and I'm glad it won.
And I'm sure Cajun will put together something very awesome. He had one idea in mind......... but I don't want to go into any more detail.
DV deserved this win.
Congrats man.
I just downloaded Chrome, the new browser from Google. It was released last Tuesday to my knowledge and it pretty basic as of now. I've visited a couple sites so far and I have to admit, I like the features it has. Some of the noticeable differences from Firefox are: The websites domain is in black while the rest of the URL is gray, so here: http://www.bzpower.com/forum/index.php?automodule=blog&blogid=245. When you open a new tab it displays your most visited pages as thumbnails that you ca
Unfortunately I missed the BBC 50 voting, it slipped my mind completely. It's a shame, my vote would have likely been DV's Vayland Dragon. The neck on the beast is magnificant, though I believe the back legs and the tail leave something to be desired.
As for the twist ending that Tufi hinted at in the voting topic, I hope it is something epic, and something that I'll be able to participate vote in, since I missed my opportunity to this time. Of course, knowing Tufi, this twist has to be somet
I have a couple MoCs I want to sent down to brickfair:
-Nightshade and Firefly
-an unfinished WIP which I'm waiting on parts for (hopefully I can have it finished in time)
-Synthetic Mecha v2
-maybe the Bohrok I made for UBBC50? and the bohrok kal if I ever finish it
-Lewa Nuva
Then I'll have everything mailed to my dorm room after brickfair is over.

UPDATE:
No mocs will be at brickfair since they're supposed to be in DC by tomorrow.... I was going to send them out then.
... commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
Subtle hint? 2009? I think not.
Yesterday I worked for all of 10 minutes on mastering Lurario's down-B move, double team. I've become more of a spammer with it than anything as of right now (), but am becoming better with the timing of it. I played a couple rounds against a friend of mine and was able to do pretty well while focusing most of my time on getting double team to work. I fear that I will have to use an attacking CPU in training mode to refine the skill.
Double team works by Lucario going into an animation, if y
Dial-Up speeds.
I found out today that there's a problem with the DSL line coming to our house, our internet is running at less than a tenth of the speed it should be. vv
I just got 3 of these delightful sets in the mail. Ordered them off the Lego Shop on Monday or Tuesday. I was originally gonna get 2, but I could get 3 and the shipping price wouldn't change, since the shipping is the same from $0-$25. Several years ago it only used to go up to $20, and I was sad when they changed it, but no more!
I built one of them when I got them, the other 2 sets are still in their boxes. I needed the nifty little parts with the 120-degree spaced angles for a WIP. I can
After much configuring of router settings, I finally got the danged thing to work. Thanks in no small part to some guy from the linksys support forum.
Ironically, all of the things that this guy told me to do was stuff a friend of mine told me to do over 2 weeks ago, I just didn't understand how do to it cuz I didn't want to sound stupid.
Song: I Love the Night
Artist: Blue Öyster Cult
Album: Spectres
Lyrics:
That night her kiss told me it was over
I walked out late into the dark
The misty gloom seems to soak up my sorrow
The further I went on
I felt a spreading calm
Then suddenly my eyes were bathed in light
And the lovely lady in white was by my side
She said like me I see youre walking alone
Wont you please stay?
I couldnt look away
She said
I love the night
The day is ok and the sun can be fun but I live
Progress on the entry has been slow over the past week.
Av-Matoran:
No new updates.
Bohrok:
Complete.
Bohrok Kaita:
-I recently purchased a second krika to complete the left arm.
-I worked a little last night (at 2AM) and more just now on the leg design. Both legs are now done.
-The spine-design for the back has also been completed, I just have to figure out a way to hide the rubber band a bit better.
-The cumulation of the above bullets have allowed me to piece together m
I went to the Stamford Museum and Nature Center in Stamford, CT today to see this: http://stamfordmuseum.org/exhibit-spot.html
You can see most of the stuff that was featured on the slideshow, but it wasn't anything compared to seeing the stuff in real life. I'm not all that great with the brick medium, I'm much better with technic, so this stuff was amazing. Not that it wasn't amazing to begin with, but wow. I walked into the first room, Blue was the centerpiece, which is a human constructin
