Nicely done. The upgrades are impressive. Is that a nunchuck the one guy is holding?

Creepy. Those eyes...just staring down on you in judgement. I only have Banner Cat. He watches you post.

I was worried for a few days that all the Vice Katz had fled amidst the chaos of Maj. But thankfully they're all back now. And before Maj explodes again from the awesomeness of my new feline army, let me introduce them all.General: Harris & Duftmon (Leopard Mode)Gaming: Bertrum & BanchyoLeomonBionicle: Jonesy & AncientSphinxmonInuva: Trixie & BastemonApollomon's Blog: Wilson & BaihumonFiction: Bucky & SaberLeomonCreations: Mac & MihiramonThe new arrangement is great. I haven't seen a mouse in days, not to mention the slowly declining insect population. Now if only I could train them to stop using their newly aquired powers to harass the neighborhood dogs.

I got two hot dogs at the Dome. But they weren't the 1/4 lb. monsters that you'd think of as Dome Dogs. I did happen to get a couple of Dollar Dogs during their promotion on Wednesday. (Two games in four days)

I went to a Twins game, and on the way out they were handing out free cans of Full Throttle. It's an energy drink I guess. So tonight, having run short on pop I grabbed it out of the fridge. I'm drinking it right now, and I can tell from the taste that it's pure sugar plus some caffine. Mostly because I'm vibrating in my chair at the moment. Excuse me for a second, I'm about to phase through my keyboard... ... Okay, it was probably a bad idea to drink one of these at this hour. I have a feeling by midnight I'm going to be reduced to a heap on the couch. It's tasty, but I dunno if these things are for me.

Speaking of Astros...Everett and Lamb aren't doing too badly for the Twins. Everett laid down a slick Squeeze Play last night for the winning run. He's got a couple of RBIs.

I have used Photobucket in the past. I've foudn sometimes they resize pics for random reasons. Sometiems when they're the same size as others.

Here it is, the 3rd day of April and majhost.com continues to suffer some sort of mysteriously non-foolish shutdown. How am I supposed to share pictures of my new cat army with the masses? I tells ya, there's nothing that ruins a good April Foolin' like your entire collection of images going down for the week. I oughta go over to Maj and give them a piece of my- Ooooh is that a ball of yarn! *runs off*

Puce.

Me too. Nothing kills the fun of a new look Blog than having all of the great pictures completely unavailable. Is this a Maj wide thing?

T-Hybrid is currently trying to wrangle 7 digitally enhanced cats for litterbox training. While he fights for his life, he has asked his newest guest writer to fill in. This is Apollomon: checking in for my first shift here at the newly renamed Scratchin' Post. Due to some unfortunate majhost.com errors, the place currently has more red x's than actual images, but I assure you the new look is incredible! T's gone all out hiring some new help in the form of the Vice Katz, but I think he underestimated the effort it would take to actually, well, control them. I'd love to help, but I've got problems of my own. As Bouncer, I'm entitled to use the living quarters that come with the position. ViceGreymon was a slob! I have to give him credit for building a lounging chair out of pizza boxes (keeping in mind that both of us are significantly larger than the normal human). But he should've at least thrown out the crusts before taping it all together. I guess on the plus side there's plenty of mice running around. All this work has made me a bit hungry, but I'll get to that after I finish cleaning this place...and I can't do that until I finish this entry. I had originally baked cookies for everybody here at the Post, but then I ate them. As far as how I'll carry out my Bouncerly duties, I fully expect it to be a structured yet amusing program from sun-up to...uh...when does this place close again? Whatever the case, I eagerly the promise of tomorow. My first real day on the job. Hope you all come back and visit!

Can somebody remind me who coined "bley" ? It reminds me of another icky sounding color...puce. Seriously, the two colors sounds just as bad as they look.

Not just eight cats...eight cats with the ability to assume the form of Digital Monsters. It's going to be the best April ever.

I envy you.

I don't know what VGM was so worried about. Yeah all my pals from college are mostly still an hour away on campus. But that doesn't mean I don't know how to have a good time. And yeah, I may have been eyeing the litterboxes...but what's wrong with having one or two cats? Or eight? And I haven't given them names, that'd just be crazy. I did however make sure to assign each of them a formal Digimon partner and functioning Digivice. After all, if you're going to have an army of cats you'd might as well do it right. Right? Sure, I'm going to have to adjust to the smell of litterboxes...and I never know when their pal Ceiling Cat may pop in to survey the surroundings, but otherwise I look forward to my new feline friends. But, of course, all these pets means I'll have less time for the Blue Vice. VGM will likely get his pink slip by the end of the day tomorrow. I'm expecting my new help to show up around the offices by then. It'd awkward to have the old hand still loafing around. Oops...I gotta go, Harris (the delightful siamese watching over the General section) just hocked a hairball. Hmm, and Trixie (that smiling cat guarding the Inuva section) has now gotten into the catnip. Okay, so the transition will make for a shaky April. But I'm no fool, in the long run I'll wonder what I ever saw in a bunch of humans.

"Do you think he plans it all out or just makes it up as he goes along?"

I haven't bought system in years. But I still think those Space Skull sets are pretty slick looking. Very unique designs, that's for sure!

Nah. As much as I enjoy the company of a pet...I'm more a dog person, and I can't have one in my apartment.

T-Hybrid hasn't been himself lately. His usual guest writer has taken it upon himself to submit today's entry. I wasn't worried when T moved out of the Haven. He promised the place would still be bouncin' and that I'd always have work. But he's coming up on his one year anny at work and they've figured out that he's gotten a heckuva lot better at what he does. So there's more work, more pressure, and less time overall. I think he's just drained at the moment. I overheard him tellin the family about his first official review and that it went well enough that he got a raise. The next review could bring a promotion, but that's not for another year or so. Way away from now. But lately he gets back from work exhausted and just crashes in front of the TV for the night. Dunno if he's just in a creative funk or what's the deal. Frankly I'm kinda worried. He don't go out much these days, and he's gotten sucked into Wikipedia. He was muttering somethin about null edits and "NPOV"....whatever that means. I'm thinkin if this keeps up he's gonna turn into one of those weird cat people. You know, the kind that keeps waaaaay too many cats in their apartments and gives them people names like "Bob" or "Steve". He's allergic and all...at least he said he was...but I'm not too sure anymore. He was over at a Target the other day and I swear I saw him cheatin a glance at litterbox prices.

Glad it wasn't anything serious. But you know you'll have to do something nice for her now.

I try to keep up with Blogs, but it's maybe once or twice a week. Sorry.

Anime? Hmm...I'm guessing you've already been told to watch Fullmetal Alchemist. I'll also recommend Betterman, Dual!, Ronin Warriors...

I'm watching Fox Sports North, in hopes of catching a glimpse of some Wild hockey before I go to bed. The Wolves game hadn't finished yet, just unde a minute to go. That minute took four. I kid you not. Furthermore, there was 0.0 on the game clock and the ref called a timeout because nobody touched the ball to officially end the game. And they took a commerical break. They took a commercial break with 0.0 left on the clock! I just died a little inside, as I think I've discovered the 2nd sign of the apocalypse. The other having been spotted earlier this year. To make a long story short, I wouldn't worry to much about your New Years resolution.

Had a dental appointment today. While I was sitting there, I had a few random thoughts. Most of the time I carry on a random conversation with the hygenist as they clean my teeth, floss, and other assorted things. But usually I just stare straight up at the ceiling. I've always wondered what would happen if instead of picking a spot up on top...I just stare straight back at them. You know, right in the eyes. The whole time. I wonder how long it would take before they snapped? While I was thinking this, I happened to also notice that it took maybe 20-30 minutes to do the cleaning, gum check, flossing, etc. The whole time they asked me about my job, vacations, school, the typical banter. Then the actual dentist arrived (the guy with the ph.D). He said hey, asked how things were, tapped my teeth and checked my bite. He didn't say a word to the hygenist. This went for about 5 minutes, at which point he left. And I was done. So of the two, who just did more work? Is there something else dentist's do I'm not aware of? Can they like fly? I just thought it was funny the big money maker in the place stopped by for five minutes and was gone while the assistant stuck around the whole time.Not much, but a few fun observations. It helps me keep my sanity.

What a night. I showed up at the store at 8, and it was a good thing I did. There was already about 15 people wandering around the store waiting for registration. By about 8:30 there were 30+, so they lined us up and did the signup early. At that point, I learned that the nearby Best Buy had put a demo out. So I jumped in the car and cruised over there. But that's all side stuff. The real fun stared once they lined us up outside and started calling names for the tourney. It's a smaller store, so they only let in the two people who were fighting that round, with the employees serving as the audience. The TV faced away from the windows, so the crowd was left watching reactions to figure out what was going on. A few rounds in, the crowd started getting into it. Chants of "RAN. DOM. GUY!" started up as people began picking favorites and showing support. Few of us actually got each other's names, which lent itself to finding other things to chant when somebody we had been talking to had their turn. But we didn't really get into it until one match pit two brothers against each other. There was a loud "Oooooh!" as they entered the store. And when the younger brother won, he was greeted by chants of "LITTLE KID! LITTLE KID!", which drew a wide smile. I lost in the first round, as detailed eariler. At that point I had to run back to the apartment to grab my Wii Code. I got a few of those, and a few Gamertags. So hopefully I'll start building a good list of friends to play against. I could tell one guy was a Melee pro, so I look forward to going up against him. I had some friends that were incredible at Melee, and I only got better by playing against them. By about 11:30, the crowd was really into it. The group in the front, just ahead of me, started up "100 Copies of Brawl on the Wall!" and showed the dedication to count all the way down to 1. There was one kid in line who kept interjecting "Brawl s--ks!" or "<#> copies of Halo on the wall!" I have no idea why he was in line...but it was interesting to actually witness a troll in real life. I was fully expecting him to start yelling "First", or start communicating in Leet. But in a show of equal dedication (or just outright stubborness) he kept up his yells jsut as long as the singers. The game came out at midnight on the dot. And by 12:15 I was back home and playing. I was up until 4 (that's counting the hour lost to Spring Forward). I slept until about 11. It felt good. I've added my Brawl friend code to the Vital Links section to the left. I probably won't take it online until I've unlocked a few of the characters I used in Brawl. And I may toy around with Stage Builder a bit too. But I look foward to seeing you on the Battlefield!
