Free Games and Stuff

Just making a post here. No reason.
So, it turns out that there's some pretty decent commercial games that have been released as freeware. The three I downloaded were pretty good games, though I don't think I'd have ever actually bought them. But free, they're definitely worth a download. I got them all from Gamershell.com

Full Spectrum Warrior
The Suffering
Area 51

So...yea.

Ugggh.

Getting ready to go through my room, deciding what I'll need to bring for college. Not fun. :P
Oh well. It's kind of exciting.
I'm not even really sure why I'm posting it here. Just needed a new post I guess. Been more than a week, and I want this to be updated at least once a week.
I should have something fun to go up next time.

A Dream

I've had this bouncing around in my head for a while, and finally put it down. If you really like it and want to share it, go ahead, just be sure to credit it :)

Enjoy.


"I dreamt of her again last night,
standing in the soft moonlight,
in the forest of glass and steel.

She looked at me with eyes wide, bright,
and I knew the time was right,
to tell her what I feel.

I turn towards her, standing there,
wind flowing through her hair,
lovely auburn strands,

We step together, we are so near,
I want to tell her that I care,
and reach out for her hands.

Our lips draw close, about to kiss,
when I sense something amiss,
all is not well here;

Behind my back I hear a hiss,
turn around, did not want this,
a laser, coming from a bear.

Flash of steel beside my face,
something flies into the space,
between me and my love;

Katana swings, frighting pace,
Ninja team is now in place,
Leaping from the sky above.

Great white shark, up from the ground,
chasing Optimus Prime around,
demanding it gets some respect;

As robots march into the fray,
zombies rise up from the grave,
looking for brains to feast;

I run with her, we hope and pray,
just to last one more day,
or be alone again at least.

But it will not be so, I am afraid,
for across the path a shadow played,
and a pale cloaked man appeared.

We fled the path, to search for aid,
but followed we where by this horrible shade,
a vampire, as we feared.

She stumble on a fallen root,
and so he finished his pursuit,
and feasted on her blood;

He turned to me, I stood mute,
I found a gun, but could not shoot,
As I looked down at my love.

He bared his fangs, and moved to me,
I tore a branch off from a tree,
and through his heart drove the stake;

As I look back I now can see,
a piece of wisdom for you, free,
That pizza before bed, I should not have ate."

Untitled- A Post With No Title

Just feel the need to post, but didn't have anything specific to talk about. So I'll just kind of ramble on.
Been playing a lot of Hearts of Iron 2 lately. If you aren't familiar with it, its a WWII grand strategy game, where you are in charge of a nation (most of the nations of WWII are playable, and there's tons that can be spawned. For example, as the UK you can release and create India, Pakistan, create the "Eastern African Union" from a bunch of African territories, Scotland can be created if your people revolt, all sorts of things). Anyway, you're in charge of the nation's production, research, and to a slight degree, politics (and intelligence services in the Doomsday expansion). It's really fun, if you're into those type of games. If you don't like strategy games, this is not for you.

I've also become a really huge fan of the TV show Firefly, and am angry at FOX for canceling it. I mean, they didn't even let them finish the season! Oh well, I'm a few years too late to really complain. I've seen about 1/2 the season, been watching it on Hulu, and really want to get the series on DVD. I've also rented the movie Serenity, though I've been told it's not quite as good as the series. We'll see I guess.

I also just bought Railroad Tycoon 3. I played 2 all the time when I was younger, then it mysteriously went missing when we remodeled our house. I played the demo for 3 a while ago, and even though it's sort of a little kids game (not little little kids, but it really is more for pre 12-year olds) it's still great fun.

Well then, I'm going to finish this post and go have a brownie. Later.

New Map Thingymabob

Ok, I'm pretty sure anyone who reads my blog semi-regularly (not sure if anyone actually does, but I can dream, can't I?) has noticed that I added a little map thingy to keep track of where people are logging on from. After seeing that I was getting some international traffic, I thought it might be kinda neat for everyone to see where it was coming from. Of course now that I added it, the traffic will probably stop. Oh well.

You know, come to think of it, I'm not really even sure why I posted this. People who read this on a semi-regular basis will notice it easily, and those who don't or haven't read my blog yet probably don't really care. I must just be lonely. :(

Presenting- Rocket Turtle

Well, I haven't gotten the pics and vids for the trebuchet yet, so I guess I'll go back to what I was doing. That is, its time to continue our tour though my mind via my pictures.

Up next is a picture telling the story of a turtle that is sick and tired of going slow. He wants to go fast. Blazing fast. Really super duper blazing fast. Like that fast that you know you should slow down, but want to keep going faster. Like that fast. But even faster. So, how did he solve this dilemma? Like any well educated reptile would: by strapping a rocket to his back.

So, with out further ado, I present Rocket Turtle.

OK, so on further review, it's more of a jet than a rocket. But he's a turtle, how is he supposed to know the difference? I mean, its not like he went to college or anything. He couldn't exactly fill out the applications considering he hasn't got any thumbs! But know, you all expect him to have a rocket, and he's got a jet instead, and that just isn't good enough for you. Well, at least he's trying. Can't you at least give him that? I mean, come one! Have you ever strapped a jet to your back? I didn't think so.

That's it for now. We're getting close to the end here, so I probably need to try and come up with some new stuff. Adios.

Sheesh, I need to update

Well, I've graduated now, so I should be able to update more often. BTW, woo graduation! Looking forward to college now; starting at Concordia Univ. in August.

So then, what's been going on recently. I've been nuked (CyberNations :) ), hardly anyone came to my graduation party (mostly due to the large number of parties already going on- oh well, more food for me), went to a few parties, ogled a friends new MacBook Pro, looking forward to getting my own laptop before long. That's about it.
Oh yea, finally beat BioShock. Got the "good" ending. Got Fallout 1 and 2, and Tactics (GREAT fun, by the way. They've been put out as a trilogy pack for $20!). And just got Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. Look forward to reading it, will do some sort of review on it afterwords.

That is all. Peace out.
