Netflix dropped Beowulf (the directors cut) on my doorstep a few days ago. There was more ass crack than I had expected in a pg-13 offering. Perhaps that was the directors cut aspect. Anyway the reason I bring this up is that the cast never seemed to settle on a single pronunciation of the titular title character's name. Some went with the most usual modern of Bayowolf (I almost spelled that Baiowolf but then I had to go scrub my mind of that image) Others used the most likely old english rendition of Berwolf and yet others decided to highlight the name's meaning and pronounced it Beewolf. And of course there was the occasional v instead of w issue. So, um, no real point. Just making conversation.

thanks that is better. well walking is a bit of a problem, but with no gravity you can just push off the walls in the general direction you wish to go. although until we get use to this, we might need helmets.
But if a sudden anti-gravity well opens in the ceiling, the boots will be atracted to the anti-gravity well, and then we'd be walking on the ceiling. Or, if we are still oriented they way we are when we have gravity on the floor, the boots could squish us and then the anti-gravity would smash the guts down on thefloor, and it would be impossible to clean, even after the ani-gravity goes away. And helmets wouldn't help- even if they did survive being squished by the boots, the rest of the body would still be squished and you'd be all grossified for a moment longer and be trying to throw up except you wouldn't have a stomach to upchuck food with.
I'm back, after so long of being grounded, and so this kinda occured. And I'm RiverFlan, but I kinda changed the name cause I got bored with it.

Well, see, when I went to my little "edit profile" thingy, it wouldn't let me change my name, so I had to create a new account, and then I had to re-do the sig, avatar, etc. But I think I posted on a few threads before I got around to doing that, so yeah.
I'm just being safe, and making sure that everyone knows that I am indeed RiverFlan.
Unfortunately, I've run out of email addresses... well I suppose I could create some more Hotmail accounts, and just switch my old accounts to those, so I don't have to remember a bunch of different emails....

Well, I just get kinda lonely sometimes, because I'm gone for half the day (school) and then I come home (after an hour-long bus ride), and my parents insist that I do my homework first thing, and so I work through that, and then I can finally get on my comp. And after I've checked my email and respond to everything, I have nothing left to do. And so I kinda look around every five minutes or so and see if anyone's added something new. And everyone is busy with their real lives (understandably), so I keep having to do more and more grapics, except lately I've been running out of inspiration for new grapics, and.......
I'm just hoping that I haven't killed the thread this time.

Sounds like somebody needs to discover a webcomic. Or maybe a flash animation site. May I suggest this one? http://www.homestarrunner.com/
