I remember it looking a little different, but it does bring back some memories...

Remember When?
Remember the good old days when we didn't know anything about our world and we just played the game? Spending 14 to 20 hours a day just playing until our hearts content. Giving ourselves enough time to sleep to get up just in time for the next Anti-PK siege on our houses?
Ahh, back when we thought the DM's were simply invisible friends that came to mess with our heads every so often with a flash of light and a puff of smoke. When we thought the designers were Gods that gave us this wonderful place that we could go fishing if we wanted. Killing folks was a business, and business was good. hehe
Then that day came where we were woke up from our slumber by the severe changes to the world. Causing us to wake up and realize we were in the Matrix, and really didn't want to wake up... Our dastardly deeds were forgiven and we walked into town for the first time ever... as blues.
Wierd, but I just remembered that's when we became aware that we were not really living in Sosaria, but in this cruel place... We were in the Real World... We wanted to go back and take the blue pill again, but it was too late. We would never be re-inserted back into the Matrix...
Battle Vortex came alive then, and now that reality has taken hold, she sits quietly waiting for Sosaria to return... I wonder if I will ever get into another game like that again... Maybe, but then again, maybe it is better that I don't.

Funniest Evar!
I was reading Lum's and they were talking about how built in chat in MMO's can present a problem. So, there is this guy that hacks into Vent servers, and records his chats with the people he intrudes upon. Most of them are sort of lame, but this one makes me laugh, so I thought I would share...

Wierd, yet not...
So, I have this friend I have been seeing for awhile, and come to find out she loves EverQuest. Never heard of UO, or most of the MMOG's and really doesn't care. She loves her EQ and wouldn't have it any other way.
I found it to be sort of interesting that people can get into a game and never hear or even be curious about all the other choices out there. I of course played EQ, but I wasn't as in to it as she is. I think I was only level 27 or so when I left that realm for Asheron's Call, but apparently she is like level 60 or more. She has this crazy limited edition set of CD's in a tin and everything. I have like 3 of the expansion packs myself, but to see someone with the whole thing was kind of different.
She wants me to install the whole thing on my puter. I guess I might have to go see old Fearian in the land of EQ once more... It's got to be pretty cool by now right? hehe
Laters...

Blather Down, BV's Of The World Unite!
So, I guess Blather is down today... Awwww... That must suck for them. I wanted to lose some IQ points, and that is where I usually go to get stupid.
I am having a great time these days with work and my new friends out in the country. I guess life just takes those turns to show you something is always better around the corner.
Anyway, my forum is up... I don't expect much of a rush to use it though. It's there if you need it. hehe
Oh, the radio-show thingy... Well, I haven't heard too much about it lately. They have been on other projects as of late, and I suppose we will resume when the time is right. In any event, I am ready to go. My schedule is a bit tighter now with the two jobs, but I can hopefully squeeze some time in for that as well.

And the beat goes on...
Oh, and happy Easter, and any other holiday I missed since my last update. Things are going much better over here. Enough to keep me busy full time now, but I am off today and tomorrow, so I thought I would sneak in a quick blog.
Life is truly like a box of chocolates... You just never know what you are going to get. 2 Karaoke Gigs on the weekends, and working 3 days at the other job, will keep me going for awhile. We are working on the car sitch now. I got an offer to come back to another Gig on Wednesday nights, but the car thing is holding that up.
The good news is that I am having some fun and hanging out with the family, so all-in-all it is really nice.
As far as the audio thingy, we have hooked it up, but haven't gotten off the ground yet. I am not sure what is in store there with me only having 2 days to work with. That's what happens when you are looking for things to do. You eventually find too many things to do. hehe
Laters!

Hiya! Happy St. Patricks Day!
Today I got my first practice run on the new audio software with Viceroy. We played some music and talked on the air for a couple of hours. Pretty neat stuff. I have some hardware coming to make the system run perfect, and then hopefully we can start doing some interviews...
We already have a tenative interview scheduled with SunSword, and we have discussed getting some others down the road that should keep things interesting.
Kelly Kindred says that she is putting BV back up. We finally got a new server, and hopefully we can get the old system cranked up and running again.
Anyway... Just wanted to say hello and remind Mocker and Haze that they can paint the fence any color they want. They still suck and always will. ;)
Ciao!
