10:54 am - Have a nice trip

One of my friend sent us a message on the 8th of a trip in the North-West of the USA. Thanking us for the bday wishes and such. He attached a bunch of pictures with the email for us to admire the view without actually being there. He also bragged about the weather. So I sent him a nice reply that goes like this:

Nick, I just want to tell you that you probably took the wrong turn at
Albuquerque. I warned you! Looking at your pictures, you got lost in the
scorching hot desert. Does the 4-seater wide rescue plane crashed? Because
you seem stuck in the desert again eating out-of-date fake ration-packs with
French tourists.

PS. When crossing back the borders you do not need to apply for refugee
status. Just tell the officer "Leafs will win the Cup this year" and
everything should be fine.

04:18 pm - rebirth

This blog which I barely maintained in the past months/years will revive this Fall. I am planning on putting an end to my would-be daily blog in French. So on November 6th it'll be the last entry to the wannabe daily blog. Afterwards, I will only toy around the UI to change some links and such. No more entries will be made.

What does it mean? I will use this blog here, on livejournal, to post stuff I want to post. Randomly. When I feel like it. About POTBS, about sports, about my feelings, about comics and such.

I don't even remember when I first started to blog on livejournal and also on my own website. I deleted the whole things many times. Mostly because of the content. Because I was foolish and that my girlfriend saw it. But I thought I wanted her to see it, just not brave enough to tell her. Yeah, that must be it, though it's not important anymore. It still hurts, but it's not important. Do you get it? I don't! haha!

So this is it, I'm preparing myself for retirement of regular on-topic blogging, in French. I don't have time to keep up the pace. Life is too busy all the time and I don't want a blog to be a burden, it's not like it's my job! Only a hobby, something that I am supposed to enjoy. at the same time, I prefer to be posting on a regular basis, which I've come to the conclusion is not possible anymore. So rather than making a slow decaying death in rotting poor schedule, the day before my birthday I post one last entry and say goodbye! (and a message to point them here).

'Till early November, Livejournal will still be the poor child of my inspiration, with not a lot of new content. Then afterward, it'll get more update than an average of 1 per month. I'm not making any promises, only telling it'll return my primary blog. And my only one!

this is your last chance
after this there is no turning back
you take the blue pill
the story ends
you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want
you take the red pill
you stay in Wonderland and I'll show you how deep the rabbit hole goes

Felt like posting this here! Taken out from the Matrix movie of course. Morpheus tells Neo how it's working. Sitting on a chair, it's now time to decide if he wants to go beyond what he knows about the world he lives in. Time to decide if he's ready for the truth. Morpheus says he can show it to him. But HE has to make the move. Truth is ugly though, unlike Wonderland...

Grandma' summer house is sold, paper will be signed in about 10 days. And my dad has a potential buyer fro the boat. We sailed for a while on the lake Saturday and Sunday, the weather was just perfect. HOT, humid, windy, sunny, but very very pleasant. Makes us feel we finally have a decent summer.

New Item I just bought today from Altus Store, for the game Golemizer. Check it out:

It's a skin to apply on Big House Type 2, which is the biggest building available (8 large rooms)

This will be used inside my newly created city on my newly acquired player-owned island. Yes, new item from the store as well!

03:54 pm - get your contact lenses here! well, over there

My cousin recently started a reselling shop for all sorts of contact lenses and glasses. It's an affiliate of coastalcontact or something. Anyways, if I didn't have surgery recently that's where I'd buy my contacts. Because anyways I was already buying them online so why not get a deal AND help family? Unless your bro or cousin is in the business, I'll direct you right over there :)

http://www.verredecontact.com/

Click there, have a look, shop around, and save on your vision stuff.

or get surgery like me : www.lasikmd.com

One is cheaper than the other, I'll let you guess :D

This is a picture I have linked directly from a thread on potbs forums (www.burningsea.com)



failboat

thought it was funny and gives me an idea of what to try this summer. We sold the engine but I'm sure I could find an old table in the garbage by the road and try to make it float and use paddles.

03:04 pm - Pirate Bay guilty... really?

I'm not a super user of BitTorrent and bt-compatible softwares and I do not use bittorrent-oriented search engines very frequently, but I'm always interested in reading what's going on about them. I spend more time reading news about it than I spend time using them.

that said, The Pirate Bay got a guilty verdict yesterday. That's bad news, but at the same time, it will bring back on the radar all the BitTorrent stuff. Which means, we can have a better idea of the real picture. What we always hear is music and movies company that sue them. But we almost never have the chance to have indepth information about the other side, the sued ones. Our opinion is "if they are being sued, they must be bad". That's exactly what they want you to think. This will induce fear if you use their websites cause you know they could try to sue you too afterwards...  FEAR!

Nevertheless, here are 2 very interesting articles, not long but full of insights.

Start with the headlines:

http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2009/04/19/will-the-pirate-bay-sink/


And also this older article but still very interesting about ISohunt and problems some companies have with BitTorrent:

02:21 pm - alt-weekly comics apocalypse

I'm a fan of Redmeat. Been reading YEARS now and I really enjoy that kind of sick absurd mean humor. Now today I saw the warning... Economic situation is giving a hard time to small papers and they cut wherever they can. That includes in the comic pages!!! This is a non-sense.

Read this article and the others linked into it:
www.redmeat.com/redmeat/apocalypse.html

and support their efforts!

05:02 pm - devlog - launch 2.0

"/FW$%G The only reason why I delayed again is the CSS!!! It's not working properly in FF3. I hate FF3 but I was forced to upgrade from FF2. Now I cannot update my blog (2cents) except when using IE7 and my potbs fansite 2.0 is all messed up too. :( working on it folks, working on it...

04:41 pm - gone for a week!

I really wanted to put online POTBS fansite... but I failed. I'm leaving for a week, going to Orlando. When I'll get back, this fansite will be history! Live online history :D
first draft of version 2, before I rework the whole css thing.
yeah!

11:14 am - golemizer log

I have been featured about 10 days ago on the devlog of the creator of the game Golemizer. Makes him happy to see we use his game in ways he dreamed of but didn't expect! Other than that, I should be working on my super maze I'm creating for this game. A giant maze where some players will fight monsters and get lost. Totally lost!
