Recently, the subject has come up of whether the GBs have abilities innately, or as a function of advanced technology. This has centered around instances in story where the GBs appear to have innate abilities, such as the insane GB's "dimension reach Kanohi turn-off", or the two GBs appearing invisible to the Matoran. Recent reveals seem to relate them to the Glatorian and Agori, however, who don't have powers. We also know that the Great Beings have given implants to Glatorian and Agori, giving them enhanced abilities. My theory is that the Great Beings did this for themselves, possibly to a greater extent. They invented protodermis, with the powers of Dimensional Gates and Concealment. I don't see why, with all the implant tech and their new high-powered substance, why they wouldn't have put two and two together, unless it was technologically impossible. If possible, this could explain why the insane GB didn't lose the ability to manipulate dimensions. If he had an implant in him before he touched the Mask of Life, it would be difficult to remove it, because the surgical tools would come alive. What do you think?

Today, I finally got a camera! I've been waiting for one so long! My dad even said it is better than his!... Okay, I need to calm down. My brother and I got a package a few days ago, and my dad said it was something to go with a bigger package. And without that one, this one would be almost useless. Actually, we found out Thursday. Today, we found out 'it' was the cameras! And my dad even went through the trouble to buy us SD cards with more memory than the default one. And if you're wondering what the first package was, I'll tell you: Inside, there were two boxes. Each one contained 4 rechargeable batteries and a docking station to charge them, and even a car adaptor. He said there is also a case coming in the mail soon. I was so excited, I started to take pictures right away (after, of course, a little bit of teaching for how to use it). Unfortunately, my dog Snickers is scared of cameras, so we would have to make sure she wouldn't be in sight. But we could lure her with food, which we eventually did. One reason he bought them was that my brother wanted to do stop-motion animation. This seemed interesting to me, too. Three words: Photography. Is. Cool.

Yeah, it's a pun. Anyway... Today I just had it with Microsoft. Several reasons why not to like Microsoft: - Windows doesn't work - It copies off other people's ideas (and they don't make it better, but worse) - Do I even have to explain Internet Exploder Explorer? - Have you seen the PC and Mac commercials? I'm not entirely sure why I have Windows, not Linux. Windows is so bad. So you might be thinking, "What's the problem this time?" Well, I'll explain. Two words: Automatic Update. Why can't they put a checkbox that says: "Never bug me again about AutoUpdates. Ever." Nope. So I had to stop the troubles manually. Great. I went to my Control Panel, clicked Automatic Updates, turned it off, and then this balloon popped up.

Every battery eventually runs out of power. Even if you can charge it. Same case for my laptop battery. My old battery would last only 10 min. on 100%. Not a lie! I had to constantly be charged. So, my dad ordered me a new one. Not cheap, though. Around $100. Took a week to get here. Overjoyed, I finally got my battery today, and while I can happily move from place to place than staying plugged into my charger on the couch, I say, "Bye-Bye battery, I'm glad to have finally replaced you."
