Ball's In Whose Court?

Honestly, I don't know what sport the people who use this phrase play/watch, but I'm pretty sure the ball stays in one court throughout a single game. They have some serve/pass if they're getting the ball all the way to another court... or they're aim is way off. I don't think I've ever actually used this phrase; at least, I don't recall doing that.  You lost the metaphor.   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM

Certification Achieved

As promised, I shall reveal a couple things I had in store. For two of my college courses, I was required to attempt a Microsoft Certification Exam. (To those who were wondering-- you know who you are-- this is the test I was talking about.) Well, here are the results:  (Personal info removed)   I am now certified in Microsoft PowerPoint 2003 and Microsoft Access 2007.   I guess that means I can now fall into the "over qualified" status for certain job searches.   And I must say I r

This Day In History

2008: Toaraga becomes Global Moderator.   I can't believe it's been a year already; so much time has passed.   If only I had something to celebrate the occasion... besides finals and finals prep. Then again, that's a terrible way to celebrate: by having tests.   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM

I Killed The Internet

Yep, it's true. I single-handedly took on the behemoth known as "The Internet" and soundly slew it with a flurry of motions known as "smooth move, Sparky."     Well, obviously not. But I'm having difficulties with my computer's connection, so the Internet is dead to me... currently.   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM

Your Taxes Are Due!

Well, technically they're not, as today is simply the filing deadline for us United States citizen. Our taxes were (should have been) taken out throughout the course of the previous year.   So if you haven't so yet, get crackin' because those taxes don't pay themselves... or do they?   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM

Giving Back To The Community...

Is a bit misleading. Now don't get me wrong; there's nothing wrong with community service or volunteering your time, but using said phrase is only valid if the community actually gave you something directly or you took something without permission (for shame). How can you realistically give back when you were never given anything in the first place? If you must give back, be sure you give of equal or greater value or as much as you can anyway; otherwise, you might as well not give anything b

Some Headache

I read a small page of mirrored text (solution to a puzzle) yesterday, and afterward, my head literally was hurting. I'd never done that much reading of mirrored text before.   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM

The Few, The Proud, The Lego Employees

Okay, so by now, we all that Greg Farshtey is both staffed by LEGO and a member of BZP, but how many people know there are other people that work with or for LEGO? There are lesser known people than him, but without their contributions, BIONICLE wouldn't continue to be what it is.   With that said, I've decided to make it my duty to dedicate a block to these hard-working individuals. If you look to the right, you'll see their BZP Username and what they do in the real world that has to do with

3-d Viewing Is Terrible

I still can't believe some 3-D viewing is still relying on red-blue glasses here in the year 2009; Meet the Robinsons used some glasses that weren't like that. Also, all that blue gives me a headache... red not so much, oddly enough, and already wearing glasses makes it even more difficult to use the 3-D glasses.   Needless to say, the Super Bowl commercials and the episode of Chuck were a pain to watch.   The 3-D effects weren't all that impressive anyway.   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM

How To Wax Philosophically

Are you making the car shinier or the surroundings duller?   -OR-   Are you putting wax on the car, or you putting the car under the wax?   ©1984-2009 Toaraga EAM
