7570 - Which brings us back to d'oh.

Ah, Monday. The weekend was too brief, as always. Bro goes to court this morning. We see if he spends the next year in jail or not.

I spent much of yesterday walking on slight disconnect. It seemed almost like I was a little bit outside of my body, controlling it remotely. Minor numbness, sort of how I picture Boston Brand and his hosts.

Walkabout... Alleyway, 21 w Las Olas Blvd, Fort Lauderdale.
I wander through here pretty much every day after work.

I'm having too much fun fiddling with autostitch. I may make the largest version a wallpaper on one of the computers at work.

All kids love log!

I also found a stickerart (graffiti) pool in flickr.

Would people who imprison others called imprisoners? That's a clumsy term.

The New Harry Potter Book (both text and audio book) were available for bittorrent download within 12 hours of its release. I can't search for nice legal public domain books without tripping over the dang thing. A wide assortment of formats, rtf, pdf, txt... you name it.

Also, 827 pages? somehow, I suspect the dire need of an editor still remains.


waxy_org spotted this thread.

Looks like a zombie variant on the old vampire game. from the same guy that came up with the original plans for the Zombie Infection Simulator (This revision is the best I've seen of the ZIS. A lot more features than the one I put together.)

I'm officially sick of the Bard's Tale. total play time, about 5 hours, give or take, in 1-2 hour bites. some cute moments, but meh. If I could save at any time, and not just at certain way points, I'd have liked it a lot more. Nothing makes me toss a game aside faster than "Whoops, you lost, go back and do the same 20 minute brainless series of combats again". After doing that thrice or so, I'm finished.

Maybe I'll come back to it after I've taken a FarCry break. Maybe not. Depends on what's on my plate. I'm only up for so much whack-a-mole, no matter how cute the in-jokes are.

It's been said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I don't know about that, but I have been seeing a lot of "flattery" lately. Not the basic stuff; passing around links and quizzes is a lot of what is fun, but replicating the format down to "Moment of lyric" and so on is sort of weird. I hope that they find their own voice soon.

Speaking of the Moment of Lyric:

( ... )

Everyone's a building burning
with no one to put the fire out.
Standing at the window looking out,
waiting for time to burn us down.
Everyone's an ocean drowning
with no one really to show how.
They might get a little better air
if they turned themselves into a cloud.

7572 - I wonder what brought me back in?

Back in the Top40 again.

I still have no idea what the exact criteria is, but I'm smack dab in the middle at #20. At one point, way back when, I was the most googled in all of journal-town.  My longest stay on the list was about 60 weeks, but I bubbled off a few times. I read about 5 of the following journals/communities regularly, and am familiar with about another 5. Half isn't bad!
