One of two mens lavoratories at 721, 4th floor, I.T.P. That's right they store the water for the water cooler in there. Sometimes I just take a whizz on em, see how they like that yellow tinted water. (j/kin')

Yes, I have poor poor politically incorrect taste. This is at the LEGO store in Chicago, and yes Kyle was the one who caused 9/11.

Hotwheel Nissan Skyline GTR


Hotwheel Nissan Skyline GTR, originally uploaded by lt_zanders.

So, I went to go buy a vacuum cleaner today. On another note my room is nice and dust free, feels goood. Anyways, so I went down to go get one however I did end up in the toy section before I got to where they have the vacuums. (Pure Coincidence) So, of course I looked around and what did I find, a Nissan Skyline GTR hotwheel, kitted and looking mighty pretty. So, I had to have it along with a Nissan 240Z, and my rather powerful new small dirt devil that tried to destroy one of the rugs in the apartment after it got a hold of a loose thread. Bad Devil, Bad. So, yes now back to homework, argh.

The Ticker Holds The Middle Ground & Passes Through Some Purple Haze

Well this one is going to be short cause I'm bloody tired. So, that group presentation happened. It was a success which was cool and people thought it was a good presentation. However, the Q & A is where it got really interesting. All of that mal content and all those issues that our group went through all came pouring out on stage, Jerry Springer style. Basically the group member who attempted to assume control at the very beginning before we even met each other tried to get sympathy for his cause and his own issues with how the group operated. That did not happen, instead he got a barrage of questions and responses counter to his issues. It was funny it was like a melt down, I was still attempting to hold the middle but yeah, funny stuff. We are definitely the most dysfunctional group thus far. The teacher for this class who is also the chair of our department did say specifically to me that she loved the ticker and once again complimented my sunburst Asics, she likes the bright shoes. Other than that we finally got the code working for my other group project I'm on, thankfully gosh. I created some purple-haze-o-vision, processing a live video stream with C, that was a funny moment because of course I had to toss on good ole Jimi for the occasion. "Purple haze, all in my brain. Lately things just don't seem the same. Actin' funny but I don't know why. Scuse me while I kiss the sky." With that I will kiss the sky and go to sleep.

Return of the Ticker

Yes it's back, you heard me right. Ticker is King! Well that group that hit a complete impasse well we ended up changing the idea. Therefore we had new means of communication of information and news material. When this even came to pass I was like I'd like to be ticker. They were like ticker? I'm like ticker tape you know crawl? They're like oh. So, then I became ticker. However, of course with much ticker comes much responsibility or power or somethin' like that. Anyhow, I actually overran the amount of text After Effects 6.5 can handle. I was like what? How can this be, it can't handle anymore text? So I had to break it up. Oh I forgot to mention the duration, yeah it's like 12 minutes long so yeah. Tomorrow or rather later on today in about 13 hours I present, whoop dee freakin doo. The million dollar question will be so how did your group get along and I will laugh and say we didn't but we survived or something to that effect. Of course after this project ends I have another project due Thursday and I need to work on a current project a lot tomorrow, so AGH! Enough about me though, my good friend Matt, he made it out to Formula D this weekend out in Irwindale. For those who don't know what that is, it's drift racing, basically getting the car sideways at high speeds and in tandem. Crazy fun stuff, look it up if you don't know what I'm talking 'bout. Anyways, hey ended up taking a picture and I just had to post it cause it's pretty funny. Maybe I'll post his video later. Anyways, I need to check the G5 and it's progress so laters.
