LEGO Millenium Falcon Fun

Michael Aranda (http://www.youtube.com/michaelaranda) recently moved to Missoula to help with the production of SciShow and Crashcourse.

I was at Target and I saw this Millenium Falcon and I needed it, so we spent like four hours last night constructing it. And then I spent another four hours this morning making this…

Yesterday I went to see “Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace” with 4 of my friends. I went to an afternoon showing in Cardiff, and we all enjoyed the movie. After the show we decided to walk around Cardiff for a bit. Later on, after 2 of my friends had gone home, the other two and I were walking back to the train station when some young teen (chavs) passed us on bikes shouting: “Wanka’s”. Of course we walked on, and continued talking.…

It's been two weeks since you looked at me.

Not a whole lot went right this weekend. I missed out on Anime Club, I totally spaced out on the local Japan Festival, I still haven't gone to the Renaissance Festival, and I neglected my organization plans for my room. Seriously, my room is starting to cause me to sink deeper, and deeper, into dispair. I can't deal with unkeptness as such.

Today at work, I had been caught in a bind, because I couldn't remember whether I had brushed my teeth that day. Like any other day, I…

Scruffy Nerf Herder...

As I expect you guys to figure it out by now - I am quite the Star Wars fan. I am also a big fan of the site thinkgeek.com. Honestly, if I had the money, I would buy almost every product on there.

I am a big Wars fan - and while I watch the occasional TNG episode, my heart will always belong to Solo. Anyway, today I bring you a new item featured on thinkgeek.com - and considering it's one of my favorite scenes from Episode IV - well lets just say this makes me extremely happy:… Continue

Thoughts from a Battlefield

In which Hank talks about the Nez Perce war and the Battle of the Big Hole. Katherine and I stopped by the Big Hole Battlefield on the way home from a mini-vacation.

"I hope that no more groans of wounded men and women will ever go to the ear of the Great Spirit Chief above, and that all people may be one people." Chief Joseph

"With women's hearts breaking, children weeping and men silent, we moved over the divide and closed our eyes upon our once… Continue

Nano, Video Games, and Reading

And so we continue on with BEDABAS.

I actually ACCOMPLISHED something today. I made real progress on my senior project so that I can actually meet with my partner tomorrow and be able to get constructive work done. OMFG. I haven't done any of that in about 2 weeks cause I'm such a lazy bum.

I spent most of today listening to ALLCAPS music and playing Minesweeper/WoW though. The senior project progress only came in from about midnight to 2:30 am. But it was a…

StarTrek vs StarWars

In a fight of Spock VS Yoda, I'd support Spock. Not because he has a phaser but because he's hot.

I'm talkin about the 2009 movie to, not Leonard Nemoy(but he is really cool).

Why Spock and Yoda? Yoda is green and Spock had green blood. They both have pointed ears and speak logically/wisely. And they are generally the favorites of their series.

Even though I prefer Star Trek, when it…

Getting Round to It

I've been pondering signing up to nerdfighters for ages and I don't know why I didn't for so long but never the less here I am, even blogging. Right now there is very little I can really discuss except for why it takes me so long to do things but clearly today is a day were I've got round to a few.

I am currently 6 minutes from the end of 'Star Wars: A New Hope' the first Star Wars movie I have ever watched. I wanted to start with the original and I must say I am quite enjoying staring at…

Jedi Are Lame

This piece was inspired by a conversation I had at a sci-fi convention. First of a couple.

Admittedly, I haven’t played any of the video games, but even from watching the movies, I can point out one important difference between Sith and Jedi that basically pounds game-players over the head: Sith operate offensively, while Jedi operate defensively. This is why so many of them died at the hands of Anakin. And this comes from the two divergent philosophies of each camp, as well… Continue

Forum Update! Plus Internet-Related Problems

Ok so I’ve got five finals and I’m sure many of you do as well. I hope everyone studies and doesn’t spend too much time on the internet. Speaking of spending time on the internet, I was stumbling around on Wikipedia the other day and came across an article about the Online Disinhibition Effect. Basically, it shows how several factors can cause a human being to have lower inhibitions while communicating on the… Continue
