Don't fear the beeper

<a>Briefcase</a>. Messed Up. screwy.wma and lionr.wma. In idle time today I "discovered" an interesting technique: reversing individual syllables. Thus mixing together the strangeness of reversed sound, but while more or less keeping the original sound to a song. <nowiki>Grandma noticed my Peanut cloth today. She even offered to some time help me make a better one, out of flannel so it'll actually be more protective and such. And she even mentioned attaching the Mr. Peanut on the outside of that if I wanted. <pre>_</pre> What a gal.</nowiki> I think acapella that includes drums is cheating. Keith disagrees. Feh. I was looking today for decent time killer online games. Like, maybe the sort of things that Yahoo! has, but not crap that I'd have to load up in the browser each time. Surely someone out there has made, say, a freeware checkers game that allows you to connect via IP. But my quick searches for such things gave me many web-based things and games with names like "Push-Pull". One fatal flaw of Dance Dance Revolution is that it cannot capture the moonwalk. You're gonna need Dance Shoes controllers for that sucka, Konami. Didn't Tetris Attack today, but worked on another program. My brother, as he did last year (and maybe the one before, I'm not sure) is doing one of those NCAA tournament thingies, taking people's brackets and assigning points and stuff. Since I'm always up for programming projects, and it didn't seem out of my range, I'm going to present him with a program that will save what winners people chose, and where he can update with the actual winners as things go along, and it will automatically do the scoring. Maybe this makes things a little TOO filtered, but hey. If you don't already, I recommend checking <a>Fark.com</a> out frequently. See what weird shit is out there. But if you're not, lemme toss a few of my favorites from today. <a>Overclocked Jesus</a>. <a>Fightin' Whities overrun with t-shirt requests</a> (legit story) SM64: Finished up the "4 on each stage" thing with Rainbow and Tick Tock Clock. Started in on the first several stages' last 2 shown stars: will come back for the 100-coin ones later, and try to get all of the coins. Also grabbed several of the "secret stars" to be found throughout the place. Star count: 78 Rogue: Messing. Almost proud: I ran into my first major bug. After beating Razor, no finishing speech, and screen went to black, but music went on until it finished several seconds later, and that was that. Current Mood: bad, bad, really really bad! Current Music: Michael Jackson - Bad <a>Original</a>
