Duracell.
I don't keep going and going and going and...
but i Start, and just don't Stop.

So what if the saxophone is black?
it has better tone the the gold one.
damn straight i play Jazz.

Um.... I fail to see the relation here... and I should think at least something like you.
I mean I'm a Music Major with interest in video games and you are a wicked Composer with an interest in video games... the has to be some common brain waves, but this certainly isn't one of them.

If someone accused you of being fake, My apologies, but i missed that one.

Today is supposed to be way cooler. Yesterday and the day before, it got to 105 in the South Sound.


I found that yesterday was a little more bearable at night then wednesday but it was still -blam!- miserable.

Today is way better.

I really had to laugh when I read in the update about it being hot in Seattle. It can't be that hot? If so Florida must be the unholy grail of all inferno and flame. :P

Understandable though.

Pretty pictures in this update. :)

I know I have an issue with my temper and may say and do things in a match that are embarrassing and regretful. I try my best to control it but things tend to get on my nerves...like Armor Lock for example. :P
So if I do do or say something bad, then I'm sorry I didn't really mean it and you should just get over it.
Thank you.

I hear ya on the weather. That was terrible, huh? I was afraid to turn my 360 on because it might fry!

haha, what at terrible, yet oddly entertaining update. Sometimes I wonder about the inter-web.

There's blocks behind it that aren't connected to the cube. There's also blank spots in the top closest line. The camera was put at the perfect angle for the screenshot.

I can see what you're saying, with perhaps the top front line first box actually being a big block in the background not connected, but after the space in the top closest line, what about the next block? How is that slightly hidden??? It doesn't look like it could also be in the background, but it doesn't line up nicely with that darker back column so I don't think it's being hidden behind those, and that that darker back column is actually in the front. GAhh, so confused....


The first cube in the top front left is a "single box" that is connected in the place its supposed to be.
The cube on the right is actually a ramp (large or huge, i dont remember which one) and its aligned perfectly so that you are looking right down the angled side, also connected in the place its supposed to.
The box in the middle is just behind the back right side, aligned to appear as if its in the front.

This is my theory on this matter, see for yourselves.

This was quite the satisfying update, even void the fullness of news. It was quite a treat to re-read CJ's old Soapbox post. He's quite the story-teller! Though, I still can't understand why he would object to his wife's ingenuity in self-cooling. We have lots of air conditioning down here in Florida and I don't complain in the least when my wife has a similar idea!

Thanks for the new screenshots. Firefight looks more enticing by the minute!

And a very special thanks to Uncle Eric and all else involved for purifying my inbox!

Hopefully the ultra top-secret World Domination strategic planning symposium location fully employs the use of air conditioning, to maximize a productive working-weekend, bearing more fruit and less whining.

Your improper sentence that read: 'Preferably one covering grammar and punctuation," would be better written as a full sentence. A full sentence, in a form such as this, "We would prefer that the book you read is one covering grammar and punctuation," would be more acceptable.

I concur with Phoenix's edit of the Weekly Update. The sentence "preferably one covering grammar and punctuation" is incomplete. A correction to the sentence could read "The book should preferably be one covering grammar and spelling."

In addition to the obvious and aforementioned slight in grammar, there was also an improper use of punctuation in the opening paragraph to your query. Don't worry though, kids get contractions mixed up all the time. Actually, you didn't even need it in the first place.

Seattle is going to be my new home. I'm here in Arizona where I was born and raised. Its been 21.2 years now and I'm sick of our 115 degree summers. I'm working on my resume for Bungie right now and I hope to be there by Christmas. Does it rain a lot in the winter months up there?

Words of wisdom all around, but no one ever seems to listen. The words are all around but the words are only sound. But nobody seems to listen. Instead they'll say, "Well how could we of known?" I'll tell em, "It's really not so hard to tell. keep adding stones, and the water gets lost in the well."

You Northwesterners complain about 90-degree heat? Only 90-degrees? I consider that a cool July day.

Get real, honestly. :-P

Living in Minnesota I think I can comment on this, it's not so much the heat as it is the darn humidity.


I am around that area, and I suffer with you.

Seriously guys. DON"T tell people that the weather is nice here in the Seattle area. There are too many people here already. You know what 405 is like in the afternoon/evening and don't get me started on 520.

On another note. Never thought a nice 87 degree day would feel cool.

P.S. You misspelled xxxxx. If you don't like it, you don't have to play xxxxx. Further violations will likely result in a ban.

You should have used osmething more along the lines of,

"Preferably you should read a book covering grammar and punctuation."
