The Daily Post asks: There are tons of blog posts out there and all too many of them take the form of top ten lists. Perhaps David Letterman is to blame, or there’s just something satisfying about the number ten that we can’t avoid. They’ve been around for a long time, and there are even […]
Fantasy Gathering A dash of wizardry and dragons
Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords
I saw this game being sold on a local selling site and after reading all the positive reviews about it, I decided to get it and give it a try. The reviewers weren’t kidding. It’s been a bit fun so far but I think the game cheats like heck. Most of the reviews say that […]
Frustrations with Activeworlds
I’m not sure what’s going on in Active Worlds anymore. I have kept my mouth shut because some people fear that negativity will ruin what’s left of AW. The place is a ghost town but when you get used to how few people there are, it gets even worse when fewer people come around. I […]
Can a movie be better than the book it was based on?
The Daily Post asks: Can a movie be better than the book it was based on? What examples come to mind? Or is it sometimes just a matter of which version you see first, as that will define the story for you, regardless of which version was made first? My answer: It’s hard to answer […]
Torchwood: Miracle Day
I was told that Starz aired the season premiere to a new series tonight (technically ‘last night’ seeing as how it’s almost 2am right now) called Torchwood. I decided to sit down and catch the ‘encore’. The episode was off to an interesting start… No deaths in 24 hours and it was being called “Miracle […]
Weekly Photo Challenge: Sky
The Daily Post’s Weekly Photo Challenge is Sky. I was really surprised to see this because earlier tonight I took a picture of these purple rays coming out of the clouds! Makes me want to write a story including a scene like this where some magic is bursting behind the clouds because of some powerful […]
Camp NaNoWriMo
I passed through NaNoWriMo and made the discovery that some ‘camp’ version had opened up. Camp NaNoWriMo. Upon reading that my NNWM log-in is already there, I logged in and looked around. From what it appears, it has the same goal as NNWM except it happens in July and August. July seems to be a […]
True Blood – Be Vampire or Vampire Hunter?
Ah, a new season of True Blood starts tonight on HBO at 9pm EST. Can’t wait! I also love how LiveJournal’s “Writer’s Block” question for today is this: Would you rather be a vampire or a vampire hunter, and why? I would definitely be a vampire hunter. I don’t want to live forever and always […]
2011 AW Community Photograph
An interesting late afternoon with a lot of people gathering in ActiveWorlds AWGate for a community photograph. I’m afraid my personal screenshots weren’t very good but I just took ’em for fun. Took this at 4pm. Gaia and Riff were there too. Took this at 5pm. Pretty weird to see a lot of faces in […]
Nintendo DS – Monster Tale
So I got Monster Tale shortly after finding out about it. I thought Henry Hatsworth was a lot of fun and figured that Monster Tale would be the same with a ‘raising a pet’ twist to it. When the game starts, it’s about Ellie who wakes at night after hearing a sound. She investigates and […]
