Hmm

I really need to get together however much money it costs to enable custom WP skins. I’m tired of picking from premade themes; I want to design my own (or at least find one that isn’t on the free list). These premade ones are for the most part… well, lame.

Hunt

Tallain85: So there I was, just me and that bear, holding the bucket filled with fish in one hand and a rake in another. The bear growled savagely, dropped on all fours, and advanced.
Tallain85: As a preemptive move I threw the bucket as hard as I could
Tallain85: I missed but the bear got distracted momentarily as the bucket flew overhead
Tallain85: That gave me time to strike with the rake. I hit the bear like a hammer, over and over, until the poor beast finally gave out one last wail and collapsed.
Tallain85: Curious, scared, heart racing and sweat pouring, I crept toward the fallen beast, rake extended, tense, ready to strike again. The bear stopped breathing.
Tallain85: But as I got within arm’s reach the fell beast leaped up and bit right through my arms! It was almost too fast to see but there I was, armless with blood shooting like out of a water gun.
Tallain85: Then it ran away.
Tallain85: Ever since I’ve been hunting the thing with these here mechanical arms.

Got bored one day.

Insane in the membrane

A while ago I wrote about ‘terraforming’ on Earth. I wrote about how in a few generations places that are now deserts could then be grasslands or forests even.

Okay, I realize it’s not really terraforming at all. It’s more like climate change. Which makes is wholly unremarkable. But it’s still almost an adventure to be here in the Mojave Desert as parts of it turn into fields of green and yellow.

I was up there with Sean and another friend, Ian, at that same rocky perch, and not only were the fields more green than brown, but there were meadows, small meadows of bright yellow flowers. California poppies I think. It was beautiful. I got a lot of photos. I’ll have them up here soon.

Nutty.

This photo leaves me speechless. Really.
Good thing I’m typing.
