So... Do You Like Veggietales?

the vegtable group. probaly the most shunned in the food department, they are hated by children and presidents alike. they are the contents of salads that no one really eats, and they make up th uneaten part of lunches. but who really knows what they are like?   at one point, vegtables were loved by people, as they kept children healthy and strong, and they helped make excellent chicken noodle soup. but as tiem went on, tehy were replaced by the ever-growing fast food restarunts with the fancy

National Novel Writing Month: 2014 Pre-Show

Greetings, Peoples!   NaNoWriMo is upon us once again! For those of you who have never heard that term, it stands for National Novel Writing Month. Sounds pretty cool, right? For all of those who love to write, a challenge is issued; write a 50,000 word novel in 30 days. I've tried it a few times in the past, but have never 'won' a year. This year, though, I plan to succeed.   So how does this all work, you ask?   Well, if you want to participate, check out the official NaNoWriMo site. You can

Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker

March 14: Spent $20 on Wind Waker   Found out that it would not work, and could not find a place to return it. Thankfully, I got it cleaned and it worked. Sadly, I lacked a GameCube controller.   April 11/12th: Purchased GameCube controller for $8.   April 16th: Gamecube controller arrive. Eagerly put the disk in, plugged in the game... and I need a GCN memory card in order to save it.   This is turning out to be one expensive venture.... Nothing I can do now but think of a new plan (and

Brickfest!

I got to go to Brickfest! There was some pretty cool stuff there, like a Stargate and a HUGE roller coster.   I entered something to the BZPower BIONICLE display. Mine was the Tu-Tu Bird, the little Brown and Tan thing next to the BZPower Guest Book.   Yes, I signred the BZPower Guest book. And I got to play around with animation, because the TR-57 guys at the convention let the public visitors play with their cool toys. and i bought not one, not two, but SIX BIONICLE sets for $20. they were a

Steve Witt Asks Rant

So Lego is asking us for our ideas for new Lego themes, right? before you know it, the topic is swamped with ideas.   How many of them are original? and age appropriate?   I've looked through all eight pages (at this time) in the topic, and I see several ideas repeated over and over: Half-Life 2. Halo. Transformers. Nintendo. Some of which are not age-appropriate.   Are we really thinking about new ideas? or are we just suggesting what video games, movies, and TV Shows we'd like to see made

Sharing My Artwork

I'm considering an account on a certain site that I can share artwork on, now that I've actually been drawing things. In an actual SKETCHBOOK.   on the plus side, people would be able to see my artwork and give me decent feedback   on the minus side, It'd be another password for me to remember, and I'm not sure if anyone would actually want to see my artwork.   So I'm kinda stuck.   Help?

Ccc Critics

Hey guys.   Thank you all for working so hard on the CCC awards this year. It turned out great. However, (I think you will probably agree) There are a couple of things that we can improve on or do better. This will also be a chance for us to get our normal CCC duties sorted out. So this will basically be a round-table discussion about the awards, how you think we did, and how we can improve. I’ll put up a couple of points to start us off.   Communication/Public Relations: This was a HUGE issue

Kindle?

I'm seriously considering getting one. I read enough that I almost need a second bookshelf in my bedroom, and I can't keep track of what I read. If I get a kindle, I won't be dragging about five books with me on every car trip. (For those of you confused, my average car trip lasts about 5 hours. And they're frequent.)   Problem is: Do I want 3G, Wifi, or even a different brand?   So many choices... I need help!

Did You Know...

that it can be really, really cold in one place, where it's normally really cold, while normally warm places can get snow?   yeah. Arizona has snow. but We don't. I wish we did.   not that we'd get a snow day out of it. three inches, and we'd still go to school. I hear that in the big cities, a light centimeter of snow is enough to close the schools. Not out here.   ya know, I don't know what it would take to get a snow day around here. We may just have to make one.   (but not until our s

Banned? what happened? he still has at least 1/2 bar of proto, and i don't recall him doing anything wrong.   so what happened?   UPDATE: now i know what's up, and i am willing to help bring him back. there is a content block in my blog, ready to become a petition to bring him back, if a petition is neccesary. until further notice, the Writing club is on

Nooooooooo!

Don't you hate things that JUST WON'T DIE!?!?!   Like stories. Or Ideas. Or stories that generated a huge amount of spam and was closed for excessive flaming. And the author banned. AND IT STILL WILL NOT END!   I can see an inferno on the horizon...       By the way, you should all check out Iden 21. It's a really good new comedy that is being started up, that happened to be started at the same time as the un-dead one, so we should all Give Iden 21 a round of applause and good criticism.

Do I talk too much?

Recently (in various venues/topics) I've posted long, detailed analyses of various topics of interest. (A rant about movies on a social network site, my epic essay about bionicle here, ect...) Not to mention that most of my comedy chapters are really long. And for some reason, no one ever gives any feedback.   Is it because there rants/chapters are too long, complicated, and/or boring for people to read?   I dunno.           ...But I just got a new idea for a comedies contest if another ever h

What's All This?

ya know that new show on sci-fi, mystery of the crystal skulls? well, i heard something the other day in current events aobut them being the olny way to save the world and all that. then the teacher went into this big lecture on how the worlds gonna end in 2012 anyway.   i, on the other hand, don't belive any of this. i bleive in the bible, and as far as i know, there is no mention of crystal skulls in the bible. the only ones i heard of are in science fiction.   who would take a show serious

Radio Star

So I agreed to Dj a morning show for our college radio station, 91.7 KEOL. Partially because I like doing it, partially because I enjoy early mornings when I actually get up, and partially because they desperately needed someone to fill a morning slot.   still haven't gotten the passcode I need to actually get into the building...Hm...   but hey! if you want to tune in, we've got an online stream at eou.edu/KEOL. my slot is 6-8 A.M Pacific Time on Thursdays.

Is Speed Everything?

when we rean the mile a week or two ago, i ran it in 13.01 minutes (ouch). yesterday i ran it in 11.26 minutes. (not so ouch, but still ouch). i wonder how i improved. maybe it was because i ran faster, or because i have been doing a lot of running lately.   or maybe it's because i ran four laps instead of accidentaly running five, like last time.   another thing about speed is that the typing book i use in computer aps really pushes you to type faster. if i type faster, i type badly. and what

Playin' it Old School

So I dug up The Old MNOG and MNOG II flash games last night, partially because I was curious if they still worked on my mac. (They do) I proceeded to waste an hour playing MNOG when I was supposed to be doing my Directing Homework.   I still think LEGO should make a game like these for the new generation. They were so much fun, and they don't have to be considered Canon!     And I will not mention the 15 minutes I wasted wandering around the Po-Wahi desert trying to remember my next step...

Jalina, the toa of taekwondo and heroine of her home, lay down in the regenerating unit. yes it did not provide as much energy as the deep water, but it was efficent enough, and it was about 15 degrees outside. the regenerating unit came to life, and bright lights surrounded her as she closed the lid on her. adjusting hersaftey goggles with care, she closed her eyes and listened to the country music that played over the speakers in the treehouse fortress she called home.   then all of a su
