I have ordered a 5v power adapter from Newegg. The local computer store was crap and Radioshack had adapters in 3, 4.5, 6, 9, and 12 volts. Figures. Anyway, I'll only be on here sporadically for the next 3-5 business days. Try not to miss me too much, guys.

I think a 4.5v adaptor would have worked if it had spare amps.

I had some free time so i thought pen to paper would be a nice retreat. I havnt had time to write in a while, it pains me to sya this but i think ive lost my passion through the stagnation of an idea. huhhh.

Cant remember the idea behind this one but it links with 'A moons obession' plot fix.

The moon's embrace is a solace comfort, the beauty is her sting. She leaves me in this half cast world to spite me. I cannot live much longer like this, I cannot settle for half, not to sooth these enraged fires. Alas she deserts me again, quietly moves on, leaving me...

Oh and this, I was going to use this for a starting line but i can't remeber what for, :3 i get that alot...

I write through disjointed emotion. Thier is no me, not anymore. That is what they took from me, that is what they will die for...

My materials arrive tommorow, YAY Private Postal Orders, PPO, Ive setled for a whilliow tree cut for the blade, the metal work would have been too hard without the forge in operation. So wood it is.

I finished the first draft of the handle, using XX wood glue a solid core and match sticks. I then used a uni sander, with a 20mm tip to grove out the shape, It fits perfectly on my hand, so tommorow ill use the same form.

I swallowed alot of wood dust, so ill definatly use a mask next time...

By purple, do you mean grape? Or the tropical kind. I don't really like the tropical, it's too citrus-y.

I am typing from FireFox in Windows 7, I decided to dual boot it and it's groovy - pretty snappy and starts up fairly quickly. I've not tested anything else on it (other than Kaspersky Windows 7 Beta), I'm downloading my GFX drivers first (without them I can't set the resolution higher than 1024x768 and it looks terrible on a widescreen. )

Also, I didn't know I could access my Windows Vista partition from Windows 7, that's pretty handy.

I'm quite liking Windows 7 here, it seems to use fewer resources and I think there's an increased performance, at least it seems to be the case when playing Fallout 3 (although nVidia's AO shader setting seems a little strange on it under Windows 7 - if I rotate my camera up or down, the AO does seems to stay in line with the scene).

Everything seems to work - my drivers, my games, my apps etc. I think I'll upgrade to it when it's released.


Also, I'm off to Germany tomorrow (woohoo!) and I'll be back Sunday/Monday. I'm going to the Wacken Open Air festival and it's going to freaking awesome. (like it was when I last went 2 years ago)

Are you trolling? I see you've removed the 'hail hitler' comment.

My guess from your edited out comment and based on your recently locked thread, is that you're trying to get this thread locked. I imagine this is the sort of thread you described.

I think baby wants his bottle.

It would seem Potassium's intention is to get this thread locked, but it is more likely that he'll get banned and his posts edited. This thread exists so that people don't direct their stupid posts into other threads, whilst it still happens, this thread serves its purpose in making the forum cleaner.

I'm sure some might find it offensive that the first thing that comes to his mind when 'Germany' is mentioned that he marches around say 'Hail Hitler' or 'Ich bin Heinrich Himmler', especially the German users (though I've not seen any around here for a little while). At least if he wanted to be funny, at least he could have said, "Ich bin ein berliner". Hence I suspect he's trolling it.
