More Stuff.

Have you ever found a game that you really loved, and then found out later that it was the second in a series? If so, you probably wanted to get the first game in the series so you could find out what the back-story was. This just happened to me. We got Oblivion for the PS3 and found out that it was the fourth in the "Elder Scrolls" series. You would think we'd have noticed, being that it is "Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion" but we overlooked it. After playing the game for a while, I got curious of what the third game in the series was like, being that the first (Arena) is now freeware and the second is nowhere to be found, so, since I had some birthday money, I bought "Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind", played it, and now I just can't get enough of it. I am amazed at the amount of work it must have taken to make that game. It is a "free-form" type RPG(Role Playing Game), meaning that you can make almost any action, although limited in some ways. You can steal from the stores if you want to, but the guards -do not- like this and -will- arrest you for it. The guards are another nice little bit about Morrowind, unlike in other games, the guards don't magically know that you stole something, of course, if one catches you in the act, or if you are reported to the guards, they will arrest you on sight, depending on how much of a bounty you have on your head. if your bounty is one gold, they generally won't arrest you unless you talk to them, but if it is 200 gold, they'll chase you and arrest you. When you're arrested, you have three choices: pay your fines (pay off the amount of bounty you have), go to jail(reduces your statistics), or resist arrest (wich is generally a bad idea, being that the guards are well trained). In order to fully review this game, I would need a lot more time than I have, but it is pretty good.

TL;DR

"Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind" Is a fantastic game, and so is Oblivion.

School

Last week, I started my year of school. That is pretty much all I have to say, but I'll keep going anyways. Before that point, on my birthday, I got "Oblivion" for the PS3, and it is AWESOME‼ On other news, I am back on Facebook, although I am not always online. Also, blogging has been made, by my Mom, a school assignment, which means I will be blogging more often. -_- Unfortunately for me.

End of line.

Grammar

A question, have you ever noticed that bad grammar gets easier to find as a community gets larger? We have gotten to the point at which some bad grammar and misuse of words is normal, commonplace, even. My thought is: GET A FREAKING DICTIONARY PEOPLE! What's that? You don't have one? DO YOU LIVE IN THE MIDDLE AGES?! Here, take this and this! I just remembered, you'll need this.

You do not even need any skill, you just need a dictionary, Rick Astley, and all the troll's base... actually, you only need the dictionary, the other two are just pranks... that'll teach you to click links before checking where they go! If you did check, and didn't fall for them, great jaerb! mehehehehehe!

and as for the tags, a "Grammar Nazi" is somebody who really hates bad grammar, like ME!

so pick up a dictionary, and join us, we have cookies and pancakes! and maple syrup, butter and milk!

wait... it's RETIRED?

Yesterday, I earned a badge called the "pathfinder" merit badge in scouts. It was pretty easy to do, and fun. The awesome thing about this merit badge in particular is that it was retired in the '50s! They allowed us to get this badge this year alone because it is the 100 year anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America. Of course, it's not like I knew this until after I earned it. Being as easily distracted as I am, I was zoned out while the scoutmaster was talking, but still heard the important stuff. After i had finished earning it, the scoutmaster gave a speech about it, which was rather interesting. While listening he mentioned that it was retired... funny what you miss when you don't listen. I now have a retired merit badge! You won't be able to get it next year, this was one of the only chances, and i GOT IT! On other news, pancakes taste good and waffles are overrated.

stupidity !rant warning!

You know those statistics that the news papers have sometimes? Where they tell you a few percentages of, say, number of children killed by bats every second(this did not actually happen), then you start thinking "hmm... bats really are dangerous". It makes sense, everyone can be scared by statistics and percentages. Also, think of this, at least 50% of all people on the internet are stupid, and I know you are now thinking "I don't see that much stupid on [insert favorite blog/web-forum here]", and it makes you wonder, "where does all the stupid go?", the answer: youtube.com comment boards. On web-forums, you can find the occasional stupid person/egotist/jerk, on the youtube.com comment boards, they are everywhere, the grammar and spelling are horrible and tend to look something like this.... well, actually, I probably shouldn't post a picture of it... just search for a popular youtube video and read the comments... you'll then understand. Now that you understand that, you have to remember, that is *JUST* the internet, there is at least twice as much stupidity in real life, we have idiots voting for our representatives. We must be doing something wrong. what happened to umm, I dunno, education?! Sure, our school system works for 50% or so, and everyone can do the important parts of math, but some people made this! AND SOME PEOPLE BUY IT! My thought is that if we want this world to move forward, we should start with better education. We have morons, we have idiots and, oh yeah! the occasional smart person! So if there is any life out on any other planet, and they have the technology to travel long distances through space, I really can't blame them for not making contact with humanity. Really, I have so much more that I could keep going on about for ever, and ever, but you've probably stopped reading at this point so...

TL;DR people are stupid, and there are only a few of us who have actually noticed this. Why do people have to be stupid?

WOW!!!

I'm posting again!! yes, I know, it has been a while since my last post... a long time in fact! but fear no more, my posting here will not die off so soon!!!!! I know you've all been so worried... right? umm... guys? anyone? OK, so I realize that nobody will be reading this blog anymore because it has been dead for, like... a year... and a half. >.> I guess i sort of lost interest for a while... but now I have *air quote*TEH INFOS*air quote*. Teamed up with my 4 GB of DDR RAM and 320 GB of hard disk space on my new computer, I WILL TAKE OVER TH-- i mean!!! blog more often!!! ya! blog more often!!! Since my last post, I have gotten into parkour, just recently started learning how to do parkour and have been practicing the techniques. We have also moved to Sahuarita, Arizona, which is right next to Tucson. We have now a PS3 and have sold our PS2, WE have a Wii as well, but that has been lost for quite some time, and we have searched everywhere. On a lighter note! I'm back!

sorry

Forgive me for not posting in the past few days, but i was busy with anticipation of a new game Iwas getting, along with other things. The game i was in anticipation of was Quake 3: arena. If you don't know what Quake is, it's easy to find out: simply go to google and search "what is Quake?"and find the wikipedia article (probably second from thae top). If you dont already know, I love first-person shooters, third person shooters and, if the one of the game companies ever made one, I would also probably love a second person shooter (a shooting game where you see from the enemies perspective). As I have said before,  sorry for taking so long to post, we have a new puppy, his name is Jasper, but I call him "Jasperition" sometimes. he is 5 months old and full of spunk. he loves any squeaky toys that you give him, is afraid of my Dad's flugelhorn and thinks it's time to play when you lay on your back next to him for long enough. I'll post more soon. 'till then, have a good time! ☺☻

A memorial to Kiko

Kiko (pronounced "k-ee-k-oe") was a very good dog. We rescued him from the pound when he was only five months old. All of the puppies and dogs there were barking at us, except for him, he just came up to us and nudged up against us as if he was saying "are you gonna take me with you?" He was always happy, we would run around our yard with him playing keep-away with one of his treats and when we were done he would lay down and eat the treat he just earned. every day, dad would play a little game with Kiko that we would call "tooth games" where Kiko would turn over and give Dad little play nips. Dad was always Kiko's play buddy, and Kiko would follow Dad wherever Dad would let him go. Mom was like the alpha to him, he always tried to make mom happy, and if mom was happy, he was content. Kiko always had a strange way of knowing when somebody in the family was unhappy, and he would nudge up to them and try to make them happy, mainly by licking them and giving them the cute face. He always knew Matthew didn't always want company, so he stayed where he was when Matthew was upset, letting Matthew come to him when Matthew felt like it. With me however, he thought of me as his puppy. Kiko would always lick me whenever I came close. he definitely disliked the move from Boise to Moscow and from Moscow to Gennessee but he loved what he got, we had a dog park very close by in Gennessee. We spent four years up there, he had been five at the time, after two years there, I really understood what he wanted. Every few days, Dad took him on a walk, after the walk he would get a treat, either a dried pigs-ear (we called them chewies and that was the name he knew tham by) or a cookie (which was his name for dog biscuits). he would always love chewing chewies with Dad. after he went outside, if he didn't bark, he would get another cookie and he would always get a chewy at night. He was a great dog, and nobody and nothing will ever replace him. the whole family will always miss him.

mine! mine mine mine! mine-mine trip!

last friday, (march 6th 2009) we went on a trip to a copper mine (and no, it's not mine). it was nice to see how they seperate the copper from everything else, smelling it however, was not so fun. they had a special non-toxic (or so they say) floatation chemical which they use to make the copper float up from the mud in nice golden, stinky bubbles that sort of look like a pepsi after you shake it up, or boiling gold. these bubbles carry the copper over the rim of the container into another container below. it realy, realy stinks. on the plus side i got a couple pieces of copper and a pet rock, which is basicly just a rock with copper oxide and some other minerals in it. the trip was truly awesome.

zzzzzzzzzzz...

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... huh? oh ya. i gotta blog. wake me up when im done. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz... wha? i gotta be awake to blog? oh, fine. i may have been awake all day ,but now, even after two coffees, my eyes are getting heavy. good night... i think...

m y d a y t o d a y

today has been uneventful... well... pretty much... the dish guy got here and gave us back our dish network. yay!!! I got pretty tired of Cox (a cable company). their DVR(digital video recorder) sucked. no skip forward no skip back. we could barely control the speed. we didn't even get a few of our favorite channels, but now, WEHAVEDISHNETWORK!!!

chemicals!!!(c0mpl3t3ly r4nd0m!)

Today, Iwould like to blog about chemicals that you don't want to here about(I dont know if you want to but im blogging about them anyways). First of all, my favorite chemical!: Sb, F⁶ A.K.A.: 

antimony hexiflouride or: THE super-acid. It will eat through anything (glass, plastic and wax included) all you need to make it is this: one part antimony to six parts flourine(yes, the gas!). of course, you could have found that out on a periodic table of the elements(do not worry i have not been making it nor do i plan on doing so!). even if you were to get the ingredients, you would still have trouble contaning it, not to metion, flourine gas is extremely toxic! and another is!: a chemical made from chemicles! dangerous to pets and most animals! _chocolate. Yes, the sweat treat we all love: shock-a-latae chocolate: high fructose corn syrup; corn syrup; water; cocoa; sugar; leass than 2% of: potassium sorbate; salt; mono- and di-glycerides; xanthan gum; polysorbate 60; vanillan and(ooo! burn!) artificial flavor!(this was on the back of a hershey's syrup bottle[not including the"ooo!burn!"])

"A spooky, scary, slimy story"

It was a dark and greasy night. The wind was

swinging through the trees, and off in the distance, the 

wolves were howling at the syzygy. I wanted to get

home as fast as my space-shuttles could carry me. My

hip-bone was pounding and my breath was coming in

intellegent gasps. Suddenly, I felt the cascading

hand of a realization touch my neck, and i screamed

stealthily. The monster  lifted me off the pomegranite

and threw me onto the frantic ground. then, with his

lavander hands, he tried to flop the 

xylophone out of me.i screamed so louidly, i woke up

every danger in the forest. my scream awakened me, too.

i was having a confident nightmare.

GARRY'S MOD!!!!!!!!!!!

my brother and i both got a new game called ,what else, "Garry's Mod" or,  as we refer to it "Gmod". unlike the games it runs off of ("half-life 2"[and episodes 1 & 2], "team fortress 2" and "portal") Gmod doesn't have predefined goals like"go there, push that button and go through that door" it gives you a bunch of tools, props and... ragdolls?! yes, Gmod give the player ragdolls to play around with. you can whack, punch, weld, and pose your favorite characters from your favorite games! and being that the games that goes with it cost $40.00 (there are 5 of them, normaly $20.00 each) by buying the orange box and Gmod costs $10.00, it costs as much as one good game, but you get 6 FANTASTIC games.(by ValvE, requires Steam)
