I failed.

Its a fantastic game.

Not without its faults, but I've been having a blast with it since release day. Its great fun with 4 people in the living room, tearing through levels and smacking each other.

I use and love SmartFTP, but as a free alternative I use coreftp. I havent had any troubles with it. Ive been meaning to give Filezilla a go, it seems to have positive reviews for the most part.

Smugmug is nice, but I think its like $40 a year.

I've had way too many cars.
I'm not rich, not even close, but I tend to buy and get bored of or get totaled by an old lady running lights. which has happened twice.

72 Chevy Nova, SS Clone with a 388 stroker, which sounds expensive, but aside from the motor, it was a monster roach.

83 Monte Carlo LS

79 Pontiac Grand Prix, with an Olds 454 (same as nova, it was POS)

85 Buick Regal

89 Nissan Maxima

68 Cadillac Fleetwood (Kick myself for selling it every day since I did)

91 Toyota Camry

86 Chevy Short bed

91 GMC 2500

91 Ford Mustang 5.0 (I crashed it in to an underpass in the rain 5 minutes after registering it. I'm still not sure what happened, I didn't even think I was driving like an idiot.)

01 Ford Focus (Old Lady ran a stop sign and damn near torn the back of the car off)

89 Pontiac Firebird

90 Jeep Cherokee (Old lady tboned it)

68 Chevelle

02 Volkswagon Jetta

Currently- 99 Cavalier, 97 Chevy Blazer, 89 Cadillac Fleetwood.

I feel like I'm missing a couple, but today was a long day at work, I am a bit fuzzy.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Yeah, there's a huge customization scene of beatles and camper vans in the states.

I've lived on both coasts, I've hardly seen a "custom" camper van or beatle.

Maybe I'm just oblivious?

Quote from mrodgers :

Great photos from everyone from the past few days. I have to get something done with the camera but I've been far too busy with working on the house.

I'm missing out on all sorts of lovely fall pictures thanks to work.

Quote from S14 DRIFT :

Dunno about that one, might be a photoshop if you look at the reflection, or it could just be a chopped down van. Wouldn't suprise me if it was real, these things are big on the coasts of the US of A

They are?

I really like that second picture a lot.

Excellent work as always.

I took some pictures at the fair sunday, not great, but for me they capture the fun the wife and I had.

After my trip to Chicago for a tattoo I'm finally going to save some money for a new camera. A several year old 3.2mp just doesn't cut it for me anymore heh.

I'll be bothering everyone for suggestions soon.

Who needs writers when you have these

Oddly enough, I just bought two pairs today.

These and These.

Quote from Rbstr :

I want to use a drop down for my bookmarks. EDIT: of course I just figured out how to get a bookmark bar under the address bar after I posed this, funny thing is putting the bookmark toolbar in makes the top of the browser take up more space than firefox does.. I don't want to open a new tab for those actions. I also want a home button. I use the igoogle homepage thing and I do a lot from that page.

It said my message was too short. So many forums, some many chrome threads.

Pidgin, IRC and Skype.

I don't really use Pidgin for talking to anyone at all, most of my friends are like me, just status messages. It makes it easy to know what someone is doing, home work etc, and dont have to waste time texting or calling.

I use skype mobile for yelling at people at work, e.g. "Why the $%&^ is that ^&%^$#@%& car not &^%#% here at this *&%$hole yet?"

IRC is just for random chats with people I've met over the years on the internet from game related forums and such. Not much use nowadays with two jobs and the wife.

My latest prize winner. (I think I posted it in another thread)

First place at the Philly Tattoo convention in April. In a couple magazines, books etc.

Hoping to beat that next month at the Boston convention.

Thats pretty nifty.

I think I'm going to take a walk to the former Womens College/Liberal Arts college/vacant buildings/now a bible college (ugh) to snap some pictures and try this out.

EDIT: Turns out the Head of Security for the Zion Bible College doesn't like people taking pictures of buildings. Especially when you sarcastically remark that your reason for taking the pictures is to plan out a terrorist plot against Jebus.

Quote from speed1 :

Interesting, I've been road riding sense I was around 10 (but not by myself until I was about 13) here in the US and I am glad we dont have anything like that.

In the past you used too, from what I've read while searching for some older bikes.

A friend of mine in Seattle is a messenger, it seems they were considering doing it in June.

(While looking for that I found this: http://urbanvelo.org/seattle-debates-bicycle-license/)

I'm not sure what thats about, but it was for a thread in another forum.

I'd say, very carefully.

If you don't have the tools, or access to them, just find a local machine shop.

Quote from STROBE :

Thanks.

They say that 90% of an image is made by the person holding the camera, so don't blame your equipment. Not that I mean it in an egotistical way - simple physics dictates that to get the kind of bokeh in my shots you need a decent sized sensor and a suitably fast lens. No photographic skill required, just open up the lens and shoot.

Ha, I blame my camera for the grainy images, I blame me for bad pictures.

Those look great Strobe.

Makes me jealous and wanting a new camera badly.

I took a bunch of pictures the last day of the Summer Nationals. They all have a light unsharpen mask to cut down on the crummyness of an 8 year old camera.

I took a bunch with a warming filter in B&W and all but 2 looked awful. I was let down by that, but I got a bunch of shots I liked.

Heres a couple samples.

Got stuck on 16 for a few minutes, but other than it wasn't too hard. Pretty damn fun.

I'd say about 17.

I personally only take two, not counting pulling in to work. I only like like 2 miles away. I usually walk.

I use MX 2004, but rarely. Its the only version I've ever used. It does what it needs to do I guess.

I'm still itiching for a new camera so badly. Being broke is rather inconvenient, ha. I tried to get out on friday, which didn't go so well. By the time I got to where I was going it was brutally humid, and my dumbass didn't bring any water. Needless to say, I didn't take many shots.

It was sort of reliving my youth, I used to live right by here when I was kid and would always be there. I thought it'd be fun to go back and take some pictures and see how things have changed.

I don't think this one is good, but I swear I see a face in that rock. Thats why I took it, and almost fell in the water stand funny on some slippery rocks to do it.

EDIT: SamH, that last shot is amazing.

At least that can sort of go off the road, my car is so pointless I cant even hit bumps with out it nearly flying in to the other lane.
