Stick Soldiers Requiem

If anyone reads this blog who had ever played Stick Soldiers 2, and had long awaited the release of 3, I have bad news. The Project has been discontinued. The Developers are making the right decision, because they have many other things they need to worry about at this point. They are focusing on school work and personal projects, which is good, so we should see more of these amazing developers later on. As a intermediate programmer, I can understand why they are leaving the project behind. The project had very high ambitions, and they must have put a lot of work into it.

All I know Is I still have Stick Soldiers Two, and I will play it forever.

hehe. atoms.

Up the Creek Without A Paddle

I personally do not understand the expression "...up the creek without a paddle." It makes absolutely no sense. Let's run through a possible chain of events, shall we? Okay, so we'll start as I decide to take a trip up the "creek". At this point I run and tell my wife where I'm going and that I will be back in a few hours. I go grab a PB&J and my kayak and head off to the creek. Once I'm there i put in and paddle around for just a few minutes to get myself warmed up for the journey ahead. I start UP the river at a fair pace. After about 1 hour I feel the cold hand of hunger creeping over me. I quickly wip out my PB&J and have my feast. Soon enough, I realize that it is growing dark and I should turn around. Upon turning my sharp 180 degrees the paddle slips from my hand and sinks to the bottom of the dark creek. GREAT!! Now I'm UP the creek without a paddle. What will I do?......I KNOW!!! I will float down... THAT'S RIGHT! Creeks flow down! So, if I'm up the creek I can flow back down. This conversation was completely pointless. So, what should the expression be? "DOWN the creek without a paddle." Because only a complete moron could really get stuck UP the creek without a paddle. But, if you had leave me a message. I'm sure your tale of adventure and heroism would... well, in all honesty I would probably get a good laugh at your expense...

um

FW: Don't you want to?

It is a moral dilemma I have developed. I don't desire to Forward any emails that tell me to, but what If I completely kill that email? Who am I to decide when an email's life should end. Luckily this subsides quickly and I delete the piece of Junk.

The Raging Prophet

I just watched Rod Parsley, The Raging Prophet, on a 24 hour bible network that I receive. After watching this man dance around and insult his crowd's way of life and say that they are living incorrectly, I am thoroughly convinced the man is evil.

Quoting scriptures from obscure bible chapters and referencing certain data that I have never seen before, Rod has a power over his audience that I have never seen. He convinces the crowd that everything they are doing is wrong, and they praise him for it.

He says that the wealth and prosperity that the members of the church holds should be used to help the people who have none. This I agree With.

He says that wealth was obtained through Jesus. That is absurd.
So Jesus Divided the real wealth between the White continents, and it is their job to split that wealth among the continents they have ravaged. Makes sense.

Mr. Defender of the Poor Has very nice suits.
This cult leader really needs to stop telling me that my opinions are useless. I might get mad and start screaming back.

Rewriting History: Part 1

This is the first part of a 7ds series, where we attempt to tweak history, if only to preserve it. My topic? Waco. David Koresh and many Branch Davidians were killed in the controversial 1993 raid. Please, do yourself a favor and learn about what happened there. Regardless of the reasoning for the raid, 21 children and more than twice that amount of adults perished in the FBI and BATF's siege. Maybe history would recall this deplorable event if the Bureau of Alchohol, Tobacco, and Firearms decided to target marijuana in their name. Yes - creating BAMF.

SNL

I asked my dad for a ride to see Hot Fuzz this weekend. Response:
"I've got a fever."
I asked "and the only prescription is more cowbell?"
My father pauses - his mind has a wide gear ratio.
"No, I've got a bug."
It seemed like an innocent cultural reference.

Rap has failed me.

Simply put, MIMS, the artist behind the hit song "This is why I'm hot" says it best.

"I can make a Mil sayin' nothin' on a track."

I liked rap, but it is heard for me to defend the intelligence of someone who says that you aint hot because you not. I feel that some rap artists out there really bring something to the world. Check out "At the Helm" by Heiroglyphics. It has lyrics that show what rap used to be. Meanwhile, this is why I am hot.

This is 300AAA

As I entered my 4th hour or so of getting caught up on my FF12 game, a stunning idea occurred to me. Click on the image for a full view, as always.

That one person

If you've ever been to a contemporary Christian church service, you've seen the one or two people with their hands raised in reverence. I just don't see how it's relevant what they're doing... I appreciate their involvement, but I think even the Lord might feel a bit embarrassed for them. So please, please,

P.S. If you enjoy this image, please don't post it anywhere else... just link to it. -- vohra

Online quizzes tell you surprising things.

I just learned from blogthings that... I'm 50% introvert, 50% extrovert. I suppose that means in 50% of social situations, I might be withdrawn, whilst in the other half of the time, I might engage someone comfortably.

Thank you blogspot.

F-word, C-word

"I doubt if there are any rational people to whom the word fuck would be particularly diabolical, revolting or totally forbidden."

The Impacts and Effects of the Ideas of “Fake Estate.”

The Idea occurred to me on a ride home from Wal-mart. I was speaking to my Grandfather on the pros and cons of being in the Real Estate business. Then I realized something. The word estate can relate to many things, the definition being : estate – 1. One's entire property; a tract of land. 2. Property left after death. 3. Condition or State; social standing; rank or dignity. 4. A class or order of persons in a state.* Thus leading me to realize that all estate that isn't Real Estate that isn't must in fact be Fake Estate! Yet my revolutionary idea was met opposition. I have stated that wasn't real was fake, yet in fact, there was imaginary! I fell to the ground. Could it be possible that my idea was stopped so soon?

NO! In fact It wasn't!

I soon realized that the Idea of Imaginary estate could also be applied, by stating that estate that composes of Intellectual Property was Imaginary Estate! I was back up and running.

The idea of fake estate is that Jesus ensured to us that only the estate that was deemed “Real”
was holy enough to enter to glorious kingdom of heaven. Could John Calvin have understood this aspect long before I? No, for he was pw0n3d by mainstream protestantism.

Jesus, the almighty owner of the nubs, hath spoken to me in modern divine revelation and said
“Young Vohra of Powhatan, tho must go forth and preach, though tho may be mingled with those of a nature more subtle then tho, for ye must be meek, and take upon with ye the lycopene of the cooked ripened tomato, for tho must protect tho's most holy prostate, for ye is gangsta, and most of all, ye is the hacks0r and you must pwn those among ye with meek character and who cannot wield the most holy of instruments, the Rifle of Holy Accuracy.”

So from now on, I will preach, and yea verily............

Cool Thing

Simple domination of a world that poses very little threat to the U.S. is completely mandatory. Flood the Middle East with young men in order to achieve impossible victory.

Oh and on a lighter note, women are cool.

-Lee's Paraphrasing of the State of the Union



I think it's odd that the state we have put the so called " leader of the free world" is one of a commander and chief of the worst militaristic campaigns of all time. Unfortunately, President George W. Bush is not a mean person.


He just doesn't know how to do foreign policy. Period


His legacy is What he is trying to save now, he doesn't want to be remembered as the neo-Nixon. (Whom he shares comparable approval ratings with.)


ohh and by the way, vohra is so right about the c.o.bodom thing,
that and i would like to add that if you do enjoy them, no one enjoys your company.
NO ONE.


Walk It out.

We censor eachother.

People use the internet as an outlet for all the conflicting opinions they hold. They pick the ones that seem more acceptable for a social situation in public, or simply live out perfectly some stereotype they consider offensive. Then, they go online and flame people who have noticed a certain characteristic of a group of people, making them feel superior to other people. The internet gave us the feeling of anonymity, enabling the masses to suffer from a god-complex. Those who consider themselves in an elevated position of intellectuality will then move on to thinking they have an elevated morality.

A censor is a man who knows more than he thinks you ought to. - Granville Hicks

The above image sparked an example of the conflict I was talking about. It's a threadless.com shirt design loaded with stereotypes that have been associated with the two sexes.

"why is the male stereotype a soilder huh? what are they saying, woman arent fit to serve in the military? shame on you threadless. shame on you for printing such an obviously sexist and politically offensive shirt "

This where I stop blogging in equal distaste and disenterest in my topic and point out obliquely that no one really enjoys children of bodom.

No one.

HeLacksImpositions

I wish I was frantic enough now to get my thoughts out. See, I need to have the sense of logically clear impending danger before I can nurse an idea into writing. That's a ridiculous impediment for a person composed of equal parts levity in its finer sense, and an incessesantly overbearing thought process. So here I sit. I realize that at this point, no one reads this. That's fine - my own fault. I need people to Join Me. Off to find some more like-minded individuals.

I hate overly sweet barbeque sauces. You should too.

In the mean time, consider something I wrote about Ol' Teddy boy.

(Yes I made the graphic.)

Net Neutrality (according to Ted Kennedy)

You might think that he's talking about how cable companies shouldn't restrict our internet access. Maybe it seems like he's saying everyone should be able to get on the internet. That might be a nice and happy concept, but why should the government step in? Senator Sununu said that any government impositions can do nothing but stifle innovation. The very name of the legislation he's pushing, Net Neutrality, conflicts with the agenda it contains. He's talking about how internet freedom should be unrestricted, specifically from corporations, and he implies the government..., while a quick search(1) describes net neutrality as a regulatory bill.

America was built on competetive behavior, Mr. Kennedy, why are you so quick to say we should be free from it? Attempting to grant equality is of Marxist politics. I am free of an agenda, Mr Kennedy, though you suggest the people each have their own, just like you. You say the internet lets you communicate with me, but your campaign through Youtube (should i say google) accomplishes the second definition of communicate in the dictionary,... to spread, as a disease. I'm 15 years old. I'm against Net Neutrality and any other form of subtle government information control. If the House and Senate or any local community passes Net Neutrality, God help us as the panapticon controls our thoughts. It's a given in this covert plan that the added control of the people only applies to internet users, so you must also get internet to everyone. The faster our internet, the faster subvergent evil dominates. As a demonoid user, a freethinking but modest soul, and an American... please don't support anyone who pushes the oxymoronic net neutrality. This just takes us towards the governmental misery in the U.K. and China(2). (Net Neutrality is already in effect there, homes)

I'd be fine with his speech if the Chinese flag were behind him. But see, it's the American flag he's sitting in front of.

To recap... by the way... FOR THE FIRST TIME, THE GOVERNMENT COULD NOW REGULATE AND CONTROL THE INTERNET THROUGH YOUR PROVIDER.

I encourage whoever reads this to evaluate for themselves(3) the implications of the government's actions. Aren't we doing fine already? You have internet, don't you? Why would the government have to force every internet provider to transmit an annual report on:

1. Their ability to transmit any and all types of internet content to the end user over broadband. (How do you judge someone's ability to transmit? You look at what they've sent. This may mean the government could freely access data including any type of activity on the internet. This is that hateful big brother who moved out, except he could come back at any time with a wicked wedgie for you)

2. The abilities of their competitors to transmit conent
3. The prices and terms of sending information via broadband
4. The number of people who send and receive information via broadband connections
5. the "state of competition" among those people.

What is the state of competition? It's an open-ended phrase seruptitiously tacked to the end of the proposed Congress Bill. In closing, discern your own meaning for Net Neutrality. It's a pretty use of alliteration, yet a serious crime and hamper to innovation and prosperity, even if the privacy scares turn out to be unfounded. To me, it seems sad that so many are under the impression that net neutrality gives us more freedom.

Why We Stand.

It seems unlikely that our simple little blog can change anything.
But to not give it a chance would be heresy.
Heresy?
Yes, we are all heretics.
Because we have forgotten why we stand.
Why we fight.

We were once goverend by a set of Ideals that, in no small amount of work, revolutinized our abilityto communicate.

Those ideals were free speech.

We are here, Vohra and I, and any others that wish to stand amongst us, to say that everything is not okay.That we are not okay with the way things are going, and we are going to change that.To stop closed-mindedness from marching forward.

We the People,
In order to form a more perfect soicety, to establish faith in our own actions, to
reaffirm the ideals of true freedom,
Do ordain and establish a resistance. A
resistance to closed-mindedness, to second guessing, to loss of freedom.
