So it's fall, which means (among other things) that the leaves are falling off the trees (at least where I live). Which Means they have to be raked, which isn't something I enjoy. But my life isn't primarily about my enjoyment, so that's not a problem. So out i go to rake, and it's really windy. Which isn't a problem either, the wind does most of the work anyways, I just need to get the leaves started in the right direction. The problem is our do...

       So I was reading the paper today and there was an article about airplanes and how the average weight of the passengers has gone up, which has increased fuel used, and decreased profits. And this got me thinking...        When I send letters/packages I pay by weight. Or by weight range, whatever. I don't think the do the same with planes, at least not yet (not that i've flown lately, so i could be ignorant, won't ...

So i just deleted my operating system (and everything else on the drive). Once again encountered one of windows odder features. When you delete certain files (mostly in the windows directory), windows goes and recreates them. No errors on deletion, just *poof* their back. Could be confusing if you don't realize it's doing it. "Why isn't this directory empty? i just deleted everything in it. *click click click* there now it's empty. ... there are still files here?! why won't the...

The intent of this article is to give some background as to where i'm been/how i've acted online. At this point i've been online for something like fifteen years. And for most of that time i've lurked. I tend to be slow to get involved in things with people (both on and offline). Look, listen, get a feel for whats going on, then jump in and make a fool of myself. This is meant with some seriousness, but mostly humor, after all, if i can't make fun of myself who can? I've been a gamer (a...

Now that i've delurkified myself i've noticed a problem here. From the point of view of you all (by this i mean the people i read often, i'm not going to claim i read everything here) i must appear a stranger. Yet from my point of view i know many of you (or at least the face you wear in your blogs, if there is a difference). Lurking was easy, no one knew me, or even knew of my existence. Yet now i feel as if i should comment on peoples blogs that i read, since i am no longer unknown. Ye...

So i was thinking (potentially dangerous, i know) would it be possible to get a negative score/points/whatever you want to call it. As i understand it people declaring a comment of mine as trolling gets me negative points, so in theory, enough people telling me how bad my comments are would get me a negative total. Mind you, it will take lots of people to manage that one, but incredible fewer people for me then if say Draginol, were to attempt the same. So here's what i'm going...

I guess this is where I'm supposed to tell you what a wonderful person i am and how much your all going to like reading whatever i type and happy joy joy stuff like that or some such nonsense. Well your going to have to decide on both of those accounts, i'll just write what i write and see where that gets me.
