    (Well, actually I have two bosses at the store I work at, they just use me on different days, buy anyway)
     
    I was at work a while ago, and I was having a conversation with one of my bosses about the midnight launch of Halo Reach, and he was asking me if I would be there. I told him that even though the bus doesn't run that late (I have no driver's license), that I would go if I could find a ride, and if i had tomorrow off.
     
    The next thing I know, he takes his phone out, calls my other boss and talks him into giving me the day off. Awesome!

    And the Furno Bike. Got them at Toys R us, will update with more pictures as I build the sets.
     
    The sets
     
    Here is Meltdown, With Tahu Star for a size comparison. The barraki tentacle was a nice touch, makes it look like he's shooting acid everywhere. The head is not made for a Glatorian head, but it can attach to a Metru head Maxilos style, although it sticks out a bit. And yes, that is yellow, not Keetorange.
     
    Here's Xplode. Some good pieces. I can see Xplode parts being used in Skakdi MoCs. For clarification, that is Mata Red, not Metru red. Not to sure why they used throwbot arms, that plus the way the spines attach to the arms makes it a bit akward. The helmet is a glatorian helmet.
     
    EDIT:
     
    Here is the Furno Bike A refreshing change from the Bionicle vehicles. Has a few recolors, such as the orange bitil wings and the orange borok Krana cover. The silver parts on the bike are a little darker than older versions, almost gunmetal. I'm not too sure if gunmetal got lighter or if metal got darker. The set does have several large gaps though.

    Today, a cardboard box arrived on my doorstep. Since the only package I was expecting was for a certain WIP I've been working on for six months (Its true! check the link!). The Lego Power Functions Remote and IR Reciever had finally arrived, meaning the project could finally move to Phase III. Expect to see a topic (With a video if I can manage it) in BBC sometime soon...

    Another update to that WIP I mentioned a while back.
     
    Well, Lego finally took the IR reciever off backorder, sot now it, and a remote are on the way, bringing me another step closer to finishing that tank. Since the last post, I've had to make a few modifications after adding the battery pack and motors. Because of the placement of the gears, I had to reconfigure them a bit because the treads were moving in opposite directions.

    Got the game today. Lots of fun. People who plan on playing online might want to check the Wii Friend Code topic for information on how a finding other BZPers for a Wii game without friend codes will work.

    You know, the one I posted on April 1st?
     
     
    Thats wasn't a prank (Though nobody responded, so I doubt anyone thinks that is the case, but I figured I'd say it anyway).
     
    Anyway, I'll be leaving early tomorrow morning for a camping trip and will be away from my computer for a few days. So no internet.

    Changed my name again*. Now I'm just Serpent of Fire. No princess or any other title in front of it.
     
    And the Best news? I've even remembered that I'm a guy!

     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    *See this entry for an explanation for the name change and gender confusion

    Beyond tired. At work for the past week I've been working non-stop to get the place ready for a visit from the company VP. I am now so tired from work, that I have changed my name from serpent of fire to Princess Serpent of Fire. I've also become gender confused as y profile now says I'm a girl. Just for kicks.
     
     
     
    I am so gonna regret this tomorrow.
     
     
    And somebody please remind me to set my gender back when I'm done.
