Inspirational Poster!

I had my first bout of inspiration today after watching gold farmers rain trolls down in Orgimmar. Please don't visit the link in the picture, I can not verify if it's safe to do so. Just admire it for the art.

World of Goo

Physics and fun wrapped in to one! The goal is to get as many goo balls in to the pipe by shaping them in to various forms so they can reach the pipe! Think of it as Lemmings with physics. :)

Moving Day...

I has a new cubical. Last week a guy who's been in my department for 30 years retired. My boss decided to keep the cubical so I got moved. Now I have a large picture window of the campus. :D We'll see how long this lasts since there were other people interested in it but I got it because it had all the 30 year guys files. >_>

Drying, drying, drying...

So I'm waiting 18-24 hours after putting a coat of Limseed oil on my flute. During this time I've come to the realization that I'm bored so I went and cut down another stalk of bamboo. This time I'm making a pan pipe as the flute dries.

Oddly enough the first pipe sounds much better then the flute did initially. Then again I'm not worrying about drilling holes in it, just sanding it down good and trying to come up with a way to tie them all together nicely once I finish the other pipes. I guess I'll look up pan pipes now to make sure I have the right number of pipes and get the sizes I need for each pipe. :P

Update: Found a guide!

Flutes...

I've been tinkering on a side project slowly. I've been building a bamboo flute. It's not the greatest of creations but it's my first and it actually makes half decent sounds. Don't ask me to play a tune right or if it's in tune. I have no clue, it's just cool to mess around with.





Update: This afternoon I applied a coat of Limseed oil over it. I'll see how it looks tomorrow after it dries. Right now it's hanging in the basement and drying.

Windows 7 Tonight

So.. tonight I'm going to try and install Windows 7 on my Windows drive along with WoW and Vent. We shall see how this works. Worse comes to worse I log in for raid tonight and have no vent under Ubuntu. :P

Alliance and Guilds

So I decided to start an Alliance guild for when I'm over A-side on Nim. I'm now taking signatures for Tauren Gone Bouncy. >_>
