Other folder vs. URU game folder

An odd thing just happened. I’m clearing space on my URU computer (yes, it is so that I can install another copy of the game), and I discover that my ‘other’ folder (which has my backups of the game data, saved games, images, etc.) is almost 3 times as large as the folder that holds the URU game. Wow. I mean, I don’t have every single file in the game, and many of them are zipped…I would have expected the game itself to be bigger! Oh well, now I can install at least 2 more copies of URU! 😀

The Principality of Sealand

The Principality of Sealand is an awesome place. It started as an abandoned WW2 British fortress, but has since been reoccupied and declared a country by Prince Roy of Sealand. They have a flag, a monetary system, stamps, passports, a national anthem…all of it! They have won two ‘wars’ (the first was against a UK navy ship, which left when fired upon, the second was an attempted invasion and kidnapping), and have a thriving buisness. It really is amazing, but the Principality of Sealand is its own country.

E-mail trash can

Today I checked out my email totals, and it turns out I’ve pressed that ‘delete’ button (that sends my e-mails to the trash, but doesn’t delete them) 2424 times. Wow. I guess I haven’t necessarily pushed the button that many times, but thats how many e-mails are in the trash bin.

Home again

Ah, nothing like home. I’m back home from turkey-ing in Connecticut, and man did I miss my files. My Blender stuff, my website pages, my messengers… Oh well, I’m home now. 😀

Late Thanksgiving

I celebrated Thanksgiving today. Here’s why. (Lol not very good at openings)
My cousins, who came over for Thanksgiving, contracted strep (well one of them did), so we decided to save the turkey for today. Still good turkey, though. One of my cousins is reading over my shoulder as I type this, askng me to type faster. Lol, cousins…New Jersians, at that. Isn’t that where that blog-banning school was…?

Oh well. Merry/Jolly/Cheery/Happy (late) Thanksgiving!
(Random picture, that isn’t mine)

I WANT THAT #4

Hey, who doesn’t want 3DS Max? I mean, really. Check out the functionality provided by it (please don’t look at the prices of any items on this list, you’ll probably have a heart attack and die)! I mean, this program is high-quality. Think of a 3D game (any game, really doesn’t matter), and it was made in 3DS Max. Trust me, it almost definitely was. Man, I want this…

I WANT THAT #3

Ok, this one really doesn’t need explaining. Anyone who has ever seen a computer graphic, or has heard someone talk about computer graphics, has heard of Adobe Photoshop. It’s so famous it’s become a verb. Bob ‘photoshopped’ the picture.

WANTED: 1 Voice, Belonging To One Zib Redlektab.

I cannot speak. Literally. I lost my voice yesterday, and it’s only gotten worse. My voice is raspy and cracks on every other word, and I HATE IT! Grr…Oh well, being silent is kind of cool, I mean it enables me to not have to answer the phone and such… 😛
