Benign Thoughts

Ok, well, I have another update to the former n00b wars. It’s no longer called n00b wars because all of the episodes aren’t going to consist of n00bs. It is now called iWars, “i” meaning internet. It was either this or eWars, and i is a cooler letter. So anyway, the script is almost done, and so far I introduced 3 new characters: Omega, of the BlackHats, Crystal, of the GreyHats, and Frank, of the WhiteHats. These are the reps of Hackers United, or HU. So anyway, we need somebody to play Frank and Crystal. If you want the part, IM me on U12, leave a comment, or email me.

Now, I’m going to start working on the characters tomorrow. Yes, Production is starting. Then I will distribute the script for the first episode, and start recording. Then all I have to do is the animation and design the official website and I’m done. It should come out by this summer. From then on, episodes should be easy to make since I’d already have the character models and sets, so yeah.

Well, usually then I say interesting, it isn’t. But this time it is. You see, I wrote a blog entry yesterday but it never got published because I procrastinated and decided to be a procrastix beta tester, and I restarted with this window open. How stupid is that? Well, anyway, here it goes. I’ll be covering today and yesterday today. Wow, that sounded weird. I guess I’ll also cover some pointless stuff and give you the latest N00b Wars update. So, even though I wrote “here it goes” a few sentances ago, here it goes.

Why is weird spelled so weirdly? I mean, why isn’t it wierd, which is how I usually spell it. I mean, it just doesn’t look right. Who invented this language anyway?

Speaking of language, I apologize for my language in some of my posts. I know I say words like damn, hell, and shit sometimes, but that’s why I rated this site PG. I mean, people hear these words every day at school, at home, on the internet, and people (like me) tend to use them a lot because of this. I guess sometimes I also get carried away and say it in front of my teachers, but what’s the point of not using the words? Like, now they’re used like regular words, so they’re not technically “bad”. And why do people get so pissed when somebody says a word? I mean, Damn means “to be sent to hell”, a bitch is a female dog, Hell is a place, Shit means poop, Crap means poop, and an ass is a body part and an animal. The only “bad” I don’t really like is the f-word. I’m not even going into what that one means. Oh yeah, and mom and dad, don’t take any offence in this. I’m not actually using them, I’m just talking about them. But seriously, I even have one or two curses in the script for N00b Wars. However I’m planning on taking them out. Most of the time it’s the n00bs who say them anyway, and they do that in real life too, so yeah.

So, when is N00b Wars going to be done? Well, I’m guessing sometime in June or July. You see, it’s the end of the year, which means more work in school. However, I’m about halfway done with the script, so in about a week I’ll be sending it to everyone who’s in it. Scott agreed to be his own voice in the cartoon anyway, and he has a pretty good part. He’s Scott: The eccentric blogger. I think he fits the part very well.

So, do you still need help with it? YES! I do! If you want to be a voice in it, IM me. Just a notice: TBA is still available guys, so hurry up if you want to be him! Also please remember that the roll of AT LEAST ONE GIRL is available, so girls can volunteer too. If you want to help with character design, you can also IM me if you have Flash MX 2004. All you’d have to do is make a file with JUST THAT character in it and give me the FLA, I’ll be able to take care of the movements if the guy’s vector. I don’t know if I should do this in stickmen style, anime style, or just your average cartoon style. I’m not very experienced with anime, so that’s not going to happen (most likely). You can also simply e-mail me some suggestions!

Something happened in school yesterday. It’s not a good thing. Somebody found a bottle of gatorade mixed with alcohol in the locker room. Don’t worry, it was reported to the gym teacher, but that means that there ARE in fact people in our school that drink, and it’s only a middle school! It’s rediculous!

Well, I’m done for now. I don’t know if I’ll blog more or not. The answer is probobly going to be not, so I’m out! See ya!

Well, I decided to make some changes on the pages on the menu. Instead of the pages being in the same category as “Home”, they are now right below the calender. I did this because now the pages are updated by the same script as the script that updates the affiliate buttons.

Speaking of Affiliate buttons, I’m open for affiliates once again. If you e-mail or IM me with your website and your 88×31 button, I’ll give you my button. Please note that once I see my button on your site, I’ll add yours to mine. I’m working on getting a “Become an Affiliate” page up, but that won’t be up for a day or two because I’m working on that cartoon.

Well, now that I’m talking about that cartoon, I have an update for you guys. It’s no longer called “Space 2.6: When n00bs attack”. It is now “N00b wars: When n00bs attack” and I’m planning on more than one episode. However, it’s not based on that Space game anymore, because well… the game’s pathetic. So anyway, I started on the script for this episode, and it should be done soon. Then it’s time for the casting. I already have my friend Bobby Z. in it, and Bobby (false-hopes) might do it also. However, I still need some more people, and at least one girl would be nice (If I don’t have at least one girl in the cartoon, it may appear sexist). I’m also going to ask Scott if he wants to play himself. Hopefully, he’ll do it and I won’t have to be him in it. That would really suck.

Well, I’m blogging from school today. For some reason, I was REALLY hyper. When I say REALLY, I mean it. I mean, I was hopping around and acting stupid all over. Hell, even Caitlin noticed! Actually, it wouldn’t be too hard for her to notice because every 10 minutes I’d say “I’m Hyper”. Well, when I’m hyper, I’ve been known to do crazy stuff.

Yesterday, I was at my grandma/cousin’s house. Yeah, they live together. Don’t ask, it’s a long story, but anyway, out back there’s a school that isn’t used anymore and some neighborhood kids built a biking course thing. Well, I brought my mountainbike that day and let me tell you this: it was awesome. I went flying quite a few times. It was sooooooo funny. Here’s how it happened: I was on my bike going over a jump. However, I was going too fast and I forgot to stand up so that the back wheel can get off of the ground, and I forgot to pull back so the front wheel hit the ground before the back wheel hit and I lost control. My handlebars spun around and I was thrown off my bike like a blind man riding an ostrich. Haha, that’s original.

This kid keeps asking me stupid questions about hacking. He wants to crack dreamweaver, and I simply don’t say anything. Why doesn’t he just remove windoze and switch to Linux, this way he can use BlueFish. Or, why doesn’t he use TSW webcoder? Oh well, this is stupid.

Wow, another blogging site! Well, today’s site of the day is a site called tabulas. It’s another free blog site, except this one is a LOT cooler. I haven’t used it, but I looked at some blogs and they were very impressive. Want a link? Here you go!
Open it framed or in a new window.

I’m not going to say much tonight, but I will say this. For all of you LOTR fans, I found this site. It has all of the LOTR movie transcripts, so I think you’ll really enjoy it.

Well, my school had a little 2 1/2 hour talent show. Ok, so it wasn’t so little. It was rather long, but even though some of the people had no talent, others were really good. For example, the first group was some girls dancing to that Hey Mickey song. They stunk. Then, the second group up was a band (they have a purevolume account, but I’m not saying their name). They were playing a song by Thrice. That also sucked. Actually, I only had two reasons for coming. The first was because Caitlin was playing with the Jazz Band, and the second is that I happen to like the Talent Show. Well, the singers were generally good, and the Jazz band was really good (although Caitlin doesn’t think so). However, one person sang “My heart will go on”, and if you know me, you know that I love that song and it always makes me cry. That person did a REALLY good job with it. I see singing in her future.

A while back, Nicole (another one of Caitlin’s friends) was joking about making a sign for Caitlin for the talent show. Well, I sat next to her during the show, and she scribbled up a sign, and when Caitlin got on, she laughed (she didn’t think we would really do it). Well, we got a good laugh out of that.

I made some more wallpapers! I don’t have any idea when I’m going to release them, but it’ll be soon. The first one is another awesome fractal flame creation, and the second is a fairly cool 3D one. The second one doesn’t have much going on. I’d show you it, but I’m not done yet ;).

My watch froze today. Yes, it literally froze. Why? I don’t know. I was sitting there in social studies when I looked down to see the time and noticed that nothing was moving. This is very strange because my watch is digital, so it wasn’t the battery. So anyway, none of the buttons worked so I took my watch off, held the strap, and slammed it against the table. It beeped 3 times and then worked fine. What the heck happened? I seriously think that this is a Microsoft watch.

What’s with Microsoft and SuSE? Well, if you have been keeping up with the latest linux news, you should know that SuSE was bought by Novell, which is a really big awesome company. Ever since that happened, Microsoft has been after them because this is a huge threat to their OS monopoly. You see, Novell has the resources to create the best OS ever, which would most likely result in the downfall of microsoft. Anyway, Microsuck hired that guy who talked some german towns into using SuSE and is now using him to try to get those towns back. What’s going to happen? Well, time can only tell, but I’m seeing what could be the downfall of the Microsoft empire in the future.

I switched Desktop Enviornments again. Yeah, for all you Linux geeks out there who know what I’m talking about, I switched to Ximian. I figured it would be good because I use SuSE, which is owned by the same company (Novell, which I talked about earlier). By the way, this is another reason why Microsoft is scared: because Ximian is so incredibly user-friendly. It’s like a mac desktop for pete’s sake! Awesome, very awesome.
