Proto Energy: What Is It and What Does it Mean for You?
Proto. We all want it. Some have more, some have less, others are just at the dead center. But why? Why are some people so eager to have it? And furthermore, what does it mean to have it?
Well, let's start with an example. Member Asdfg has just joined BZPower and is brand new to the system. He's a good member, has been tutored through by a Greeter-- errr, Mentor, and he's doing pretty good with a couple dozen posts so far. He's a nice

Unfortunately, Maddison's and mom and mine sneaked onto BZP, saw what was happening, and told us to stop the wedding. You have no idea how much this hurts for me, but I understand that mothers usually know best (or so the dads say), so I'm not arguing about it. The time will come, someday, that I will have my mother's good graces with the affair.
However, I and Maddison thank you all for the many well wishes you have given us, and I can only hope you will be there for our respective weddings
People, watch your mailboxes, cuz you should be receiving this sometime within the next couple months or so (depending on where you live)~!
Honeymoon~
Nukaya (Aka Queen Maddison the Awesome) and I decided on our honeymoon plans, cuz, well, what's a marriage without a honeymoon? And cuz we love you all so much, we decided to share it with you!
We plan to first meet in Portland and take a river cruise on the yacht Colombia Sternwheeler, finishing day one with dinner and lodging at T
As you all may or may not know, the BZPRPG has gone under yet another baptism. Smeag's back, CJ-- er, Amonkira's back, and Gato is staff. I'd say that's a pretty good team right thar. (Also, many many hugs for Gato!) Guilds have been dismantled, we're back to grass roots, and staff is reduced to watering the lawn to try and fix this debacle. Of course, the BZPRPG must have had some problems for this to happen, right? Such a radical turnaround, so soon. I'm going to talk about that and more here.
One year ago, at nearly this exact moment, two strangers met in a crowded Portland convention center. Lego abounded, but as two people drifted among the sea of bricks, a friendship was formed between squeals of delight and shouts of "HAY LOOK AT THIS!" And now, a year later, we have our anniversary.
Of course, she's in college and I'm at home, so it'd be hard to get together for a party, right? Wrong. We did the party a week early! (Yup, we're crazy.)
What did we dooo~? Well, we roamed ar
When I was a brand new baby in the world of BZP, back in late '05, I had no idea what half the stuff people talked about was. I was clueless when it came to banners, signatures, avatars, ranks, and I thought that whenever i got a board message, it meant there were no staff online. But one curiosity that caught my attention was the internet phenomenon known as "leet." I didn't understand it when I arrived on the shores of BZ-Wahi, but now, almost four and a half hears later, I still do not quite
See this entry for information if you dunno what this is about.
"Okay, so what now?"
Not to worry! I have this all planned out! ... I think.
Here we are. The contest. Okay. So.
"What do we do now?"
Now you submit your entries for the BZPower Member's T-Shirt. In this entry, you can submit designs, patterns, or ideas you feel can/should be implemented. You should also have a short paragraph explaining why your design is the bomb and what is in it. Here, like this.

Phew, finally kicking this project into gear!

First things first: "What are you guys doing?"
You look in those pics of BrickFair or BrickFest and see those staffers in them snazzy BZPower staff shirts? Then you see the members wearing their rainbow of a wardrobe, looking all... yanno... normal? (Seriously, guys-- you're Lego fans from BZPower. You're not allowed to look normal.) And then you want to, if you ever go to one of these conventi
So you're browsing a blog entry, right? You see a comment by a user you're not familiar with, k? So you, like, click on their name and there's that dropdown menu; with me? Among the list of options, it says "View Public Profile."
This makes me wonder: is there such a thing like a "private profile?" If so, where is it? Please tell me-- I want to know more about me! Imagine the information stored in the "private profile!"

This was why I stayed up till 4 AM. ... If you have a problem with it and your name is not Andrew (Bossman), all complaint comments will be devoured whole.

I must confess, I am no musical expert, and the concept of musical genre is as alien to me as the game mechanics of football is to an Amish wife. I do not critique music based on it's classification, nor on how it appeases the audience, but rather on how it affects me, how I hear it. I don't care if the music I listen to makes those around me treat me like a leper or avoid my iPod as if it were the plague; music isn't about them, it's about me. Music is an individualistic medicine, and like with

Old quote from myself a couple months back. It was the result of boredom, an urge to talk to myself in the tone of a grouchy old curmudgeon and a study on psychics.

Far Sea -- Somewhere in the far Southern Atlantic Ocean -- 2020
Captain Beauldegard was a big man, about 40 with a steel gray mustache that seemed to cover his lips like a gourmet platter top, the thick cookie duster of a brush in stark contrast to his shiny, bald head. His eyes were vivacious despite looking worn, though he liked to call them "experienced," not wanting to make people think of them as the eyes of an oftentimes stressed, insomniac commander, something he went to great pain
