Greetings, my cuddly companions, and welcome to another edition of WTF Video of the Week! Sorry once again for the delay in getting new stuff up, but... ganbarimasu! Speaking of Japanese stuff, this video is from a zoo in Japan, and if you ever had any doubts about the craziness level of our favourite foreign country, just think about how even the animals practice martial arts! Enjoy this WTF animal goodness! | ||||||||

At long last, I've finally returned! Well, I've always been here, just not posting stuff, that's all! Things have just been crazy around here, and I just haven't had too much time to devote to the site. But the past couple days, that has changed... I have just made a new addition to the site! There are now buttons in the title bar of each blog post now, where if you so choose, you can share the blog with your friends on several popular social networking sites: Facebook, MySpace, Digg, Del.icio.us., and LiveSpaces. I hope you all will put these new buttons to use, as it should make it easier to spread the word about this site. Of course, the shorty codes are still available, so if you need to use those, they are still available. But the addition of these buttons should shorten the process of sharing something from this site with everybody you know! Let me know if you have any comments or suggestions about this new feature. Catch y'all later! -- TG |

Ugh, late again! Not just in time of day, but late in actually getting something up here on the site! Sorry about not being here. I've been in a bit of a mind-fragged state lately, and whenever I am home, I just work on other things and not this site. But, since I'm waiting for some laundry to wrap up, I'll let you in on what's going on with me. First off, got an update on the progress of the web comic. I've been writing out chapter summaries, to pretty much get the plot down before writing the script and panel layout. At this point, I'm over halfway through the story, and the remainder should be done within a couple weeks. After that, I will finally start some character sketching, including that promo poster, and then it will be time to start laying out the final product! Next up, I am heading up to the Akron area tomorrow evening to spend a nice chunk of weekend with Rhombus! On the agenda are a minor league baseball game, some golfing, and some good old techie discussions! ^_^ I've now seen Iron Man 2 twice. Decent movie! Not as good as the first, but it's enjoyable. Plus, Genndy Tartakovsky did some storyboarding for the movie, which both me and Strike noticed in the credits! (If you don't know who he is, he is the guy who created the cartoons Dexter's Laboratory, Powerpuff Girls, and Samurai Jack) After the second time seeing it, our group went to Choo Choo's Diner in New Martinsville, and I remember being sleep drunk and seeing the election results for the WV primaries, where "Mollohan, the Rubber Man" finally got voted out of office! (Does anybody else remember that jingle?) I finally made my way back to Quaker Steak n Lube after not being there for several months. And for whatever reason (I didn't ask or request or anything), I just happened to get sat in the section of my old regular waitress! Go figure! Am I rambling yet? I've really gotten into the newest set of MTG cards lately. Those Eldrazi cards are vicious! I think this is turning into an accidental case of randomness! In my ever-expanding social life, I've met some really cool people lately. Here's hoping new friendships blossom and become long-lasting! Oh! Something with some meat on it! At work (and I NEVER talk about work, so this must be big for me!), I have recently got to go back to my primary job function... that's right, I've got to finally write some new software! Lately, I've been working on new system implementation, and although it's important work, I've missed doing my own designs. Well, last week, I finally got the go ahead to design a much-needed piece of software for the company, and I got the thing designed in about a week's time! The past few days have been beta-testing, and the launch party is at lunch tomorrow! (Technically today, but you know what I mean.) Well, I rambled on enough for one night... I need to check on my laundry, and then get to bed real soon, so I can get a few hours of sleep under my belt. Got all that traveling to do tomorrow, so I want to be as well rested as possible! -- TG |

So, Strike & Co, anomalous, and I were all discussing variants of Rock-Paper-Scissors, and possible absurd variants of the game. Here are some of the ones mentioned: 1) Kirk-Picard-Borg: Borg assimilates Picard; Picard is a better captain than Kirk; Kirk beats up Borg in 70's style slow motion action sequence. 2) S'mores: Graham Cracker smooshes Marshmallow; Marshmallow melts Chocolate; Chocolate is tastier than Graham Cracker 3) Strike-Erin-Jason: Erin punches harder than Jason (based off arcade punching game); Jason got Strike a job; and Strike is GM in game with Erin (this one is a stretch) Does anybody else have any crazy variations? --TG |

My mind is racing, and I doubt I'll sleep... It's interesting how a person's words can make you feel. They can light your heart on fire, but then you feel the burning pain. To know your name is on their lips, It makes you unable to speak. But are you overanalyzing like you tend to do? Are you making too much of the situation? Are you reading signals that are nonexistant? You've been made the fool before. It hurts when you're wrong. You tell others of your thoughts; They tell you to take the step forward; They push you into taking action; Then you hurt because nothing was there. You're afraid such is the case again; You want to stay silent, so that you won't feel that pressure; But you need to shout, so that the world will hear! Everything is unclear; Everything is confusing; Why are you tearing yourself up over this? It's probably all in your mind. Those feelings aren't really there. They can't be there. But what if it is real? How can you be sure? Is there a way to know? You've walked this path before; That path has led you to pain; You don't want to walk down unless you know you can reach the happy end. But yet you want to walk. You want to see where it all goes. But you don't want the consequences if you're wrong. You wish you could be sure before you set out; But nothing is certain. ... Bah, I'm always like this! I need some sleep! -- TG |
