So being in Portland, we're about four hours from the Canadian border. You might have noticed that Hahli Husky and Nukaya have both blogged about us traveling up there to hang out recently. It's a fun get-away, and since Janus and HH live literally on the other side of the border, it's pretty feasible. ANYWAY. I wanted to share this cool panorama I took of the same place I took a cool panorama back in January when we traveled up to Vancouver with AndrewSmeag and Hanni. I think my new goal is t
Oklahoma State - 34
Alabama - 31
Once again proving the superiority of Oklahoma football over 'Bama ball.
Hoover be danged.
Also, because I feel like it:
You may be Sooner born and Sooner bred,
But we live longer, cause you're sooner dead.

I've been meaning to do this for years now. But I am finally revamping and redesigning and fixing the Vayland Dragon. It's been in the same plastic bags since Brickfair two years ago, and is irreversibly broken and shattered. I am going to salvage what I can, and do the rest, wholesale, from scratch, hopefully in time for Brickfair oh-ten.
Finally got around to that photoshoot. And the photos didn't turn out half bad this time.
(I tried a few weeks ago, and those photos were abysmal!)
Anyway, I should have Vayland Dragon II pictures tomorrow too. It's too big for my lightbox, so I'm being forced to try something different. I'll do that tomorrow. Right now, it's late, and all I want to do is sleeeeeeeeeep. Well, not the only thing I want to do, because I have lots of things I want to be doing instead. Sleep is
MAKE IT GO AWAY. PLEASE, MAKE THE ICE AND SNOW GO AWAY. I'M COLD. I'M SICK OF BEING INSIDE. THIS IS OKLAHOMA. IT IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THIS WAY. MAKE IT GO AWAY.
I'm in a bizarre state of mind. It's not exactly a pleasant state of mind, and I wish it gone. And so, as I always do, I shall write it away. For now.
Some of you may know that I recently left home, going off to the University, and living in-dorm. And if not, now you do. Let me now inform you that while my profile location may say otherwise (which it does), I am indeed back in the lovely land of Tulsa, Oklahoma for the summer.
And it's not exactly what I had expected home to be.
I've go
I just wanted you all to know that InnerRayg is my hero and I love him.
Also, he is magical:
(See his unnatural glow? It's the inner rage manifesting as supernatural forces!)
That is all.
Death Cab for Cutie's new CD came out today.
It's amazing.
You should buy it.
I know I will.
(And yes, I'm an AFOL. No, I don't want to be an ambassador [at least, not right now. I'm too busy having a college life (though the bulk of that ended a week ago, now it's summer)]. Thanks for the PMs, you two.)
I just want you guys to know that I am for sure entering this contest! I have a MOC near-completed that just needs finishing touches and photography. I am pumped to finally have a MOC to enter into a contest, I haven't entered one since I won 50. Very excited!
So, I've always been disappointed in the pictures I took of Transtech Shockwave.
However, I've also gotten loads better at photo editing since then. And I've been doing this with some other photos, so I thought, why not run them through photoshop again?
Old photos are on the left, retouched versions are on the right.

I also replaced a bunch of my macro photos on Flickr too. A lot of the newer ones (think last year or so) with 'white' backgrounds now h
OMG LOOK AT THESE POLLS Also, some of the names had to get shortened (some by a lot) because with the URL and IMG tags in the field, the field exceeded the allowed number of characters, so I had to make cuts where I could, which, considering the others were links and tags, were solely in the names. Sorry! Also, next contest? Everyone is required to submit a thumbnail too. Yeesh.
Absolutely ridiculous.
I wonder how much money UT payed the Big 12 refs? I mean, the refs never called anything on UT, and had to be forced by Gundy to call an illegal forward pass call on UT.
Absolutely freakin' ridiculous.
Good job Big 12, way to set the conference back another couple of years.
