silveradept | Another week's end!

We survived another one. Whee! Only about, what, ten more to go?

To help your skill powers: How to win at a crane game, courtest of

jokermage, whom I may have to start calling Felix with the way he's got stuff.

Pizza, in moderation, may help cut your cancer risk. But not too much, of course, or the detriments outweight the benefits.

A shocking new discovery as scientists in Berlin create ball lightning in a laboratory condition. Probably the closest thing to a live Hadouken that we'll ever see. In technological progress, Hewlett-Packard is cooling servers with model jet engines. The engines are modified, and they generate more than enough wind to make things work, even in close confines. I wonder what the noise will be like, but so long as there aren't tech offices in the server room, it probably won't be a problem.

Something much more sobering, but still deadly, are the mobile execution chambers developed by the PRC, that they're putting to good use. Injection death, on wheels. Too easy to contravene law and judicial procedure with those... not to mention I don't like the idea of having my death come to meet me.

A new feud is erupting, but not Hatfield and McCoy... now its the Castles and the Shrocks. We just hope there aren't any more fatalities. Although, if there are, make sure that the bodies get a proper burial. That way, when a high school gets built on the property many years down the road, the skeletons won't get turned up by those digging the foundation. That's got to be a bit scary. Hopefully there aren't any horror stories that get associated with the place.

Arkansas believes that homosexuals are unfit to be foster parents. Because "unmarried sex" happens in a homosexual household, and because homosexuals don't "have the potential" to find a spouse. Those of you already armed with the cluebats and hammers, second door on your left. Those still left can marvel at a conservative's letter to his liberal friend, explaining why his liberalness is causing him difficulty in selling his house, and why liberal control of government would only make things worse. Second door on the right, for those interested in this particular unit. Those getting back from the first incident will join you. Those not interested in either of those may find this last object more to their liking, where a vacation bible school was held in the home of a convicted sex offender. Admittedly, the organizers did know about the past of the house they were choosing, and thought that they weren't going to be causing any problems for him. They trusted that the offender would not be a recidivist on the matter. The law says otherwise, in a measure designed to, well, protect children.

In gardening matters, though, we've found our lawn ornament - we're going to pick up some Gnome-Be-Gone and scatter it about the yard.

Last bits/achievements - finished up Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, and so now I'm ready to tackle KHII. Put some time into buffing up some of the characters and weapons in Phantom Brave, too. Much to be done tomorrow, including footie matches. G'night, people.
