I did a nice big update on This Peanut Looks Like A Duck (and added the t-shirt). Off to school shortly to serve pizza lunch at Nefarious’s school, and then I have a couple days off from parenting because her mom is visiting for a the weekend to take her out trick-or-treating… Maybe I’ll spend another day annoying the neighbors by having people over for a loud Rock Band party…?
So I was looking at this Icelandic site that’s a protest about the UK using some sort of anti-terror legislation in a political/economic dispute with Iceland over their banking troubles (visit the site if you care about the details)… It’s lots of photos of folks from Iceland holding up signs that say things like “We Are Not Terrorists” But this photo really cracked me up…
Hmm… Which one of these people has the most Viking blood in them?
After far too much time invested, this sad chapter in my life has ended — I have finally beaten Green Grass and High Tides in Rock Band at the “expert” level, completing the hardest song in the game and finishing the solo tour. Once I figured out the couple of tricks of how to time it, it actually wasn’t that hard. I have big fingers so it’s a little harder because I can’t use the solo buttons, but still…
FINALLY!
Also, my Cherokee just headed off to get lifted a little more (8″) so I can fit the 35″ Boggers under it… Below is about how much it’s changing (the photo doesn’t do it justice — I think it’ll make a big difference). It’s about the biggest I can make it and still fit into underground parking — a good size that’s lots of fun but still completely usable for day to day. For better reference it’s the same size as the Jeep in this video. Good timing, because yesterday it tore apart a heater hose…
Proving that my hand web piercing has not yet damaged functionality (thanks in part to Simple Care, the best piercing aftercare product out there), I beat GH: World Tour (but only on hard, to unlock all the songs), and have gone back to try and best that cursed track Green Grass and High Tides in Rock Band on Expert… I got to 96% — which is past the hardest parts — and then stumbled. Arrrgh! Another day…
“Why is he sad?”
“He doesn’t like how hot it is in Australia.”
