Well, since many rather, ah, persistent fans have been asking me to write another fun-filled, entertaining entry, I have decided to bow to their wishes.
In my last entry, I failed to address the issue of my major, life-altering decision(or not) of whether or not I should buy a flash cart for my Nintendo DS Lite. Well, at last, after careful soul-searching and cost-benefit analysis, I have decided..................
Well, actually, I thought I had decided not to purchase a flash cart. But, over the past few days, I have been reevaluating, and right now I am leaning more toward actually spending the 50 or 60 bucks to buy one. This is partially due to the fact that I have just obtained a rather lucrative summer job, and have the extra resources to accommodate this otherwise unnecessary wish.
Anyway... after that long and drawn-out paragraph, which included many words, the meanings of some of which even I am not entirely sure about(well, actually, I am, but still...), let's move to a lighter topic: I am currently working on an online multiplayer sci-fi RPG with a friend, which will hopefully be at its first release stage within a few weeks. I will probably give more details about it in a future post, but for now, it will suffice to say it is the most enjoyable project on which I have ever worked.
Oh, yes, almost forgot to include a promotional piece: My Website now features a slicker interface and even more promises of features to come in the near future;-)
Bye!

Yet again I take keyboard in hand...
What with school ending, I haven't had much of a chance to update this, but here I am with a (possibly) brief entry. I only have 1 more day of school, and it will only be about an hour long, as I have completed the vast majority of my various subjects.
I have finally updated my website to look much more colorful and nice in general, and although it is in its most basic form right now, I hope to have a nice, fully-featured site within a month or so. (in case anyone is too lazy to look in my profile info, here is a link to my site)
I have recently been doing some experimentation with magnets. One of the stranger things I have discovered is that when I hold a ridiculously strong neodymium-iron-boron magnet close to (or touching) my digital alarm clock, the magnet begins to vibrate noticeably. The electronics in the alarm clock must be creating a weak electromagnetic field, which is causing the strong magnet to vibrate. I will be doing some more experimentation to find out more about this, because I have a lot of time on my hands and don't have anything better to do;-)
Goodbye 'til next time!

Veritable Gobs Of Media!!!
Well, a lot has happened since my last (and first) post. I recently celebrated my birthday and recieved a grand total of 3 DVDs and 4 CDs, among them the 2-disc special edition of the original National Treasure. In addition to this, I went to see The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. But wait, the media saturation my brain has recieved doesn't stop there! National Treasure: Book of Secrets came out on DVD on Tuesday, so of course I recieved the 2-disc special edition of that as well. I haven't gone into great detail, but I'm sure all of my adoring fans can get a pretty good idea of how things have been.
Also, I have been wrestling with a somewhat difficult decision which will greatly impact my life (or not). I am speaking, of course, of whether or not I should purchase a flash cart for my Nintendo DS Lite, and if so, which flash cart. I have been examining the many homebrew DS sites, and I have essentially decided to get a SLOT-2 flash cart. Now my only difficulty lies in finding a reliable retailer. Amazon.com sells SLOT-1 cards, and if I have to I will just buy one of these, but I was hoping for a Supercard CF because of its built-in 32MB RAM expansion. Some of the more powerful homebrew games and applications use this, such as the amazing QuakeIIDS, as well as DSLinux.
Well, my download of the National Treasure 2 soundtrack (from AmazonMP3) just finished, so I had better go. Farewell until next time!

Hello world!
Well, this is the first of what I hope will be a long line of posts detailing my own random thoughts, happenings, and other parts of my life. I don't have much time right now, so this first post will be relatively short. Essentially, I am simply saying hello. Hopefully, I will have a chance to write more soon. Please visit my website here for more about me, although there currently isn't much going on there(a situation I hope to change in the very near future). Goodbye!
