Unfortunately, something just came up literally 5 seconds ago that is going to have me away from home for most of today. Those of you with contest prizes; the prizes will be given to you as soon as possible, and MOCotW will be up late tonight.

I have decided to rename my blog: The Observatory, because ~Laughin'Man~ suggested it, and it totally rocks! Let me know what you think of the new name.
Also, ~Laughin'Man~, I will make you a banner and a PBZP. PM me as soon as you read this entry.
I've personally never been a big believer of Bigfoot, but apparently some guys in Georgia (state, not country) found several Bigfoot, one of which was dead. An autopsy is to be performed on the dead Bigfoot, which will probably be used as proof as to whether or not Bigfoot actually exists.

Now, Bonesiii, before you comment here saying "there's no such thing as a temporal paradox", as you did several months ago, I'd like to say that I currently have no other term to call it, so a paradox it remains for now.
Government officials show up on your doorstep one day and tell you that you've been selected to hand test a new temporal drive on a top secret spacecraft recently developed. You accept, and go through extensive training to become familiarized with the new technology. It's
Finished song #5 of my GarageBand music, and I'd like all of you to hear it. It's 4 minutes long, 100% custom, and the most awesome work I've produced yet. Believe me, if you listen to it, you won't be disappointed.

Please, tell me what you think!

To whom it may concern: the Lunar Eclipse that I reported last month will occur the morning of August 28th. Umbral eclipse begins at 3:51 a.m. CDT, Totality begins 4:52 a.m. CDT, Mid-eclipse is at 5:37 a.m. CDT, Totality ends at 6:22 a.m. CDT, and the Umbral eclipse ends at 7:24 a.m. CDT. The entire event will be visible on the west coast of North America, and most of it will be visible in the midwest. Those of you on the eastern coast may not see very much of it, but still should be able to cat
Ok, first off, I'll say that you should still put any questions about the contest itself in the official contest blog entry (right below this one). Questions on the prizes and voting can be placed here.

Yes, I did completely forget MOC of the Week two days ago, no I have no excuse. I finally received some of my online course's textbooks on Friday, and I've been working practically nonstop to start the class and get myself caught up with it ('cuz I'm 3 weeks behind). Sunday went by pretty quickly and I totally spaced out MOCotW. If necessary, I'll put aside some time tonight so I can put it up.

And I'm quite pleased with them. You can bet the I'll be using blunt shooters on my MOC for this blog contest; which reminds me, YOU ALL NEED TO ENTER IT!
Much larger picture.
Another much larger picture.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to build my contest entry.

Well, school's out now, and I'm officially a senior. I watched that new Night at the Museum movie last night. It was absolutely awesome. I recommend that all of you go and see it. I've been working pretty hard on a new website, one that probably won't be linked to here for quite a while yet, since it's far from finished.
All in all, summer looks like it'll be quite a bit of fun.

The Orionid Meteor Shower started yesterday, and will peak with over 30 meteors per hour around the night of Oct. 21 and the morning of Oct. 22. Orion rises in the east at about midnight, and comes into best viewing time around 2 in the morning (note this is CDT times). I hope you enjoy these meteors, as these produce lots, yes I said lots of fireballs. What's a fireball? A fireball is a meteor that's so bright and so close that you can even see the smoke trail it leaves behind!
I hope yo

I based the design off of the Sovereign class battleship, mainly altering the secondary hull. An assault ship was built into the top of the saucer section; and it can be quickly detached for battle or exploration, etc.

I've been out of town since Thursday, and I haven't really been able to get to the computer much. As such, unfortunately, there won't be any MOCotW tomorrow. I can either do it Tuesday, or I can just skip this week and continue next Sunday. Comment here with your vote, it doesn't really matter either way to me.
Once again, sorry for any inconvenience this causes.

Or are blog entries throughout the BZP Blog Community getting a bit more tense and controversial (in a bad way)? Please PM me if you ever feel that my blog entries get like that, as I try to keep them from being so.
Name change up very soon, and I'm still trying to get a bunch of comments in this entry. .
There was a pun contest in our local newspaper a few weeks ago.
I got really excited about it, since I love puns.
So excited, in fact, that I collected or composed ten puns and entered them into the contest, hoping that at least one would win.
Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
