i'll never forget, cnn was showing docking with the soviet space station, human history in the making - then they cut to the oj trial. :sick:
i should be more careful how i eat a devil dog in public. i like licking off the sides, nibbling at the top - tee hee
iz Torture looking at all the abandoned buppies and kittehs needing forever homes.
abandoned puppies? aww
Now I remember why I don't want to use uber area light on a single-core computer. 3Delight is slow even when the shadow samples is set to 8. I forgot to hide the plane that has the uber area light surface.
Made a new render today! YAY!
I had to take a break from Ribbit, my brain was getting too full of frogs...
rendering is medicine for the soul. :)
just remembering how much i enjoy the medieval dock. endlesss possibilities.
complaint - trying to save the Blender manual to pdf, but it's capturing that pita wiki bar covering over text.
my scifi Aiko render needs a devil dog. or an ice cream sammich.
finally learned how to rotate an object in blender. wire frame mode doesn't show all the edges. can't find to unsmooth the edges.
it handles high polys a lot more than wings.
devil dogs are brown, but not a smidge of chocolatey-ness.
Nice work!

That's not true, they are devil's food cake. I guess that's almost like dark chocolate, but not quite the same. I'm glad they're back...but I can't have them often. Need to get the weight down, not put it up.

I saw it right away! It is ingenious, though!

Yeah not my creation. If anyone's not getting it, just tilt your head to the right. :)
I think "My brain is full of frogs." would make a great meme, and a much better one than the one that depends on the "f" word. :shut:
i'm already stuck with a plot problem in Lisa. he's the son of a lord of the manor, so of course there's the 'big' secret of the manor. a couple of his new friends are telepaths, how do you hide a shameful secret from telepaths? trying not to resort to the old magic geis that prevents anyone knowing.
cute frog, er horse :)
Are you making your own story or comic Misty Whisky?
My roommate thinks I am evil and spiteful. What does spiteful mean?
...if you do by chance hit all the numbers and take the full "cash out" prize (instead of the annuity payments) don't be surprised that the "take home" it is lower than the actual listed jackpot.
The actual amount a lottery jackpot awarded when taken as a lump sum is 1/2 the face value. The full face value is based on taking the winnings as series of 25 or more annual payments (of course still subject to taxes). So for example, the last Oregon Megabucks jackpot of 2.4$ million only netted the winners 1.2$ million taking the lump sum amount. Out of that sum subtract the state tax (here 8%) then federal tax (35%) and that cheque you have in your hands is now 716,600$. The state takes a cut of 96,000$ and the feds another 386,000$. Furthermore the state is off the hook for having to pay the remaining 1.2$ million of the face value.
So why are many advised to take the lump sum?
Two reasons: First, in doing so you've paid all your taxes up front and the remaining amount is all yours. You have basically locked in your tax rate for good on the winnings. With the annual payments, you pay on each installment and if tax rates go up you end up paying more over the length of the annuity plan. If tax rated remained the same, you'd come out a bit ahead in the long run. However if the go up, you end up paying more. Second, another concern is, will the lottery commission still be there 25 years down the road? If they cease operations, the annual cheques stop coming.
Sadly, these days save for a few select occupational areas (like Government or the railroads) few people have retirement plans or pensions to look forward to here except what little they might have in savings and ]when eligible, a meager SSI Cheque each month That's why many my age,(including myself) keep plunking down our 1$ a in hopes lightning will strike as we feel it is the only chance we have left.
Right now even the base 1$ million prize (≈300,000$ after all the reductions and deductions above) would still set me up for a good while. Better than the options I am looking at right now.
BTW I don't bother with those big national lotteries like the Powerball or Mega Millions. For one, you are not allowed to remain anonymous as the local state Megabucks will let you do. Second, at my age I really don't need that much, just enough to be able to go on with life with the years I have left.
Spiteful = Filled with, prompted by, or showing spite; malicious.
There are several definitions for it
...very nice.
I am not having a good day.
Me either. I really wanna tell someone off but have to stay professional. Like they say, don't bite the hand that feeds you

so goes along with being evil? Just doing things out of evil? out of desire to hurt? eep!
Typical do stuff on purpose just to be cruel.

...If I had 5$ for every time I had to do that in my last job, I wouldn't need unemployment.

I know that phrase. I always try to be careful around the ones who cook my meals.
morning. My plan to stay out of the heat didnt work out. That is my complaint.
something you are not Kulay :)

but I just killed a baby roach that did nothing against me other than be in the same house I live in.
...in New Orleans. I'm probably still on the Roaches' ten most wanted list. Had to keep all our food in sealed containers or the fridge.
here the rule is black roach good, brown roach bad. We do the cup and cardboard trap with the black ones. You put a cup over them slide cardboard underneath and carry it outside :)
complaint: one of the online games is hard. I'm playing the tutorial mind you. 5 guards against me. lol. And one of the has a rocket launcher. the worst part is that no one can help me because the tutorial is a zone separate from the regular game. I haven's seen another player in the zone.
ok.. gonna take a break before I try the tutorial again. Maybe I should work on my sci-fi scenes in Studio 3.
