Does it get hot in a basement during the Summer?

14. Batman The Animated Series Clearly Ripped Off BioShock. Apr 1, 2010, 01:31 Kxmode
 
I posted this comment back on Feb 22, "I'm watching an episode of Batman: The Animated Series entitled 'Deep Freeze'. If I didn't know any better I'd say someone at Irrational Games copied it! Don't believe me? Watch the episode for yourself and decide. The episode originally aired November 26, 1994." The video was posted on March 23, 2010 by a gamingage1. For all I know "gamingage1" perused the comments on this site and saw mine. It's really aggravating to make a good observation, GET NO RESPONSE TO IT, then someone posts a clip on Youtube for the exact same observation a month later... and somehow manages to get over 13k views in a week! Brood

On a side note I'm sad to hear Jaime Escalante passed! I loved 'Stand and Deliver'. R.I.P. Mr. Escalante.

Had that happen 2 years ago which trashed our faux-hardwood floors. I am now firmly convinced that basements should either be finished concrete (can get some amazing stuff done these days along that route) or tile, with area rugs - if you don't have heated floors.

Pen-is festival. I love the Japanese. They are insane.

Paris bank robbery. Definitely shades of Albert Spaggiari there. Now there's a guy they should make a movie about. What an interesting cat..."without hatred, without violence and without weapons".

Mimas - Great shot! Good ol' Pac Man.

A Samsung robot in every home? Why would I want a robot at home? Shit, make a robot that can work for me and collect my pay while I hang out and partay. Now that would be something. I'm sure we won't regret any of this, particually after all the robots connect up with Skynet.

Go LHC! I'm still pulling for a black hole!

About time a judge smacked down these assholes trying to patent genes.

James Lovelock - is confusing apathy with stupidity.

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
And eternity in an hour.
A robin redbreast in a cage
Puts all heaven in a rage.
A dove-house filled with doves and pigeons
Shudders hell through all its regions.
A dog starved at his master's gate
Predicts the ruin of the state.
A horse misused upon the road
Calls to heaven for human blood.
Each outcry of the hunted hare
A fibre from the brain does tear.
A skylark wounded in the wing,
A cherubim does cease to sing.
The game-cock clipped and armed for fight
Does the rising sun affright.
Every wolf's and lion's howl
Raises from hell a human soul.
The wild deer wandering here and there
Keeps the human soul from care.
The lamb misused breeds public strife,
And yet forgives the butcher's knife.
The bat that flits at close of eve
Has left the brain that won't believe.
The owl that calls upon the night
Speaks the unbeliever's fright.
He who shall hurt the little wren
Shall never be beloved by men.
He who the ox to wrath has moved
Shall never be by woman loved.
The wanton boy that kills the fly
Shall feel the spider's enmity.
He who torments the chafer's sprite
Weaves a bower in endless night.
The caterpillar on the leaf
Repeats to thee thy mother's grief.
Kill not the moth nor butterfly,
For the Last Judgment draweth nigh.
He who shall train the horse to war
Shall never pass the polar bar.
The beggar's dog and widow's cat,
Feed them, and thou wilt grow fat.
The gnat that sings his summer's song
Poison gets from Slander's tongue.
The poison of the snake and newt
Is the sweat of Envy's foot.
The poison of the honey-bee
Is the artist's jealousy.
The prince's robes and beggar's rags
Are toadstools on the miser's bags.
A truth that's told with bad intent
Beats all the lies you can invent.
It is right it should be so:
Man was made for joy and woe;
And when this we rightly know
Through the world we safely go.
Joy and woe are woven fine,
A clothing for the soul divine.
Under every grief and pine
Runs a joy with silken twine.
The babe is more than swaddling bands,
Throughout all these human lands;
Tools were made and born were hands,
Every farmer understands.
Every tear from every eye
Becomes a babe in eternity;
This is caught by females bright
And returned to its own delight.
The bleat, the bark, bellow, and roar
Are waves that beat on heaven's shore.
The babe that weeps the rod beneath
Writes Revenge! in realms of death.
The beggar's rags fluttering in air
Does to rags the heavens tear.
The soldier armed with sword and gun
Palsied strikes the summer's sun.
The poor man's farthing is worth more
Than all the gold on Afric's shore.
One mite wrung from the labourer's hands
Shall buy and sell the miser's lands,
Or if protected from on high
Does that whole nation sell and buy.
He who mocks the infant's faith
Shall be mocked in age and death.
He who shall teach the child to doubt
The rotting grave shall ne'er get out.
He who respects the infant's faith
Triumphs over hell and death.
The child's toys and the old man's reasons
Are the fruits of the two seasons.
The questioner who sits so sly
Shall never know how to reply.
He who replies to words of doubt
Doth put the light of knowledge out.
The strongest poison ever known
Came from Caesar's laurel crown.
Nought can deform the human race
Like to the armour's iron brace.
When gold and gems adorn the plough
To peaceful arts shall Envy bow.
A riddle or the cricket's cry
Is to doubt a fit reply.
The emmet's inch and eagle's mile
Make lame philosophy to smile.
He who doubts from what he sees
Will ne'er believe, do what you please.
If the sun and moon should doubt,
They'd immediately go out.
To be in a passion you good may do,
But no good if a passion is in you.
The whore and gambler, by the state
Licensed, build that nation's fate.
The harlot's cry from street to street
Shall weave old England's winding sheet.
The winner's shout, the loser's curse,
Dance before dead England's hearse.
Every night and every morn
Some to misery are born.
Every morn and every night
Some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to endless night.
We are led to believe a lie
When we see not through the eye
Which was born in a night to perish in a night,
When the soul slept in beams of light.
God appears, and God is light
To those poor souls who dwell in night,
But does a human form display
To those who dwell in realms of day.

- Blake
 
Go forth, and kill!

I played for a while yesterday on the Blue's News TrackMania Server when it was basically full-up, which was a blast.

I logged on to try it last night. I had never played Trackmania before, so I figured I'd just see what it was like. That was at about midnight. I didn't get done until 8:00 AM and only quit 'cause I had to get some sleep. WOW, WHAT A STUPIDLY FUN AND ADDICTING GAME! And to think that it is free - that's all kinds of awesome! I highly suggest everyone try it out if you haven't already. The server is rock solid and had people on it all night. I had a blast too.

If you see 'prez-bluesnews' flying off the track for the hundredth time while your on, be sure to say hello!

Yeah, nobody got hurt at all. Nobody even got dirty despite the estimate of $300,000 of damage. I just started at this job too, haven't even been there a full week. I know they said I'd get a baptism by fire but I think today is a little over the top!  
Huh? I'm sorry, I was thinking about cake.

Off work early, hurray! I'll be sure to thank the old woman who drove her goddamn car through the front of the store. It's amazing that nobody got hurt, let alone killed. Oh well, more time for Dragon Age!

Hope the elderly lad is alright. Congrats on a day off!

Nano Ninja was pretty cool. Sort of reminded me of that Elevator arcade video game from the 80s which I loved so much. Anyone remember?

Yup. Time sure does fly. Can't believe the year is 25% over either.
