Oh man, I was having a horrible stressful week, totally overwhelmed and pretty depressed… then I heard today's quackcast and your version of Macattack and now I'm laughing so hard! Haha thanks guys! I needed that! :) Dare I ask is that really how I sound like in type though??? :P

heh… forgot to pay my power bill so I've been living the past five days in a dark house with almost no internet. Luckily one of the local gas stations has free WiFi so I've been going there to read th forums every few nights. Found out one thing though… I couldn't post to the forum via my Nintendo 3DS. I would get that box, but I couldn't type anything into it. Oh, well… I've got my power back on. If I don't forget to I'll probably invest in a calender and put a large sign to not to forget paying my bills. :)
Could've been worse… I could've forgotten to pay my internet bill. :)
no… wait… I actually did once… :(
those can be interesting, interesting times. when i was living in CT we lost power twice for a spell and i got along pretty much the same way you are. well we had a generator, but those are a bitch on gas. but ya find that as long as it's not horribly freezing and you have some place you can pilfer the net from, despite it's a little bit of a nussance to get there some times, it's a liveable situation. can be a major pain, but it's livable. you get to appreciate flash lights when youre alone at night. but ya at least feel a little bit more rugged for the experience eh? ;)
Oz, what's going on in your head sounds weird. im not a doctor, but if it persists, id consider getting it checked out, or hell, at least eat ice cream too fast so you can give it a reason to act like that. good luck man.

I'M GONNA BE AN AUNTY AGAIN!!!!!:D :D :D
my brother just found out his first kid is on the way! MAN i cant wait to sink my clws into that kid and repay him for all the years of torment through his own child!
BEST EASTER IVE EVER HAD!!!
The real question is: why AREN'T you all dressed as maids?
I know Pitface is. …as an Iron Maiden at least.
You guys should follow her example!
Don't worry Pit, just my stupid head and it's headache. No serious issues, it's just full of stupid :(
I did eat a lot of icecream the other night though. It was delicious!
Congrats on your new family member! ^_^

I guess I lucked out. I have a 300 watt power inverter in my car and I was using it to keep my 3DS and cell phone charged up while the power in my house was out. I've had it for a while and it has always helped during those times when power was out for extended periods… such as when a supertyphoon smacked us so hard we had no power for a month…
And I still remember the power company charging us for services we COULD HAVE been using during that time (which I thing was just totally wrong… making us pay for power we didn't get)…
I'd edit the last post I made, but that would mess up the quote (and it's messy to fix that again). Anyways…
Got that new update for ME3 (it's free) and it's got a gun I really REALLY want to use in multiplayer. It's called…
The Kishack Harpoon Gun!!!
Getting shot with this baby would give any one a very bad day… :)
And it also lets you play as an Asari Justicar Adept, a Krogan Vanguard (Battlemaster?), a Geth Inflitrator, and… a Batarian Sentinel…

a whole month eh? i havent had the leasure of that yet, how'd you enjoy reinventing the wheel?
but yeah, thats some total bull shit, didja let em know your feelings on the situation?
Anyone else getting these ads?
I'm asking because THEY'RE DRIVING ME INSANE!!!
Every time your mouse touches them, they scream out, and I mean SCREAM: "SAY SOMETHING!" or "OH MY GOD! NO WAY!!!"
And notice how they're fucking positioned!!! Every time I want to go to a different tap, I have to naviage around the top banner ad, so that I don't get yelled at again. And let's say I wished to press the forum button; I'd have to carefully edge my way between the two screaming pictures, hoping that I don't arouse their slumber. Every time I'm not thinking about it… "OH MY GOD! NO WAY!/SAY SOMETHING!!!"
I'm normally a tolerant fellow but these things have been popping up on this site for months now. I'm so sick of them. They make me avoid comming here and I now wish to be personaly responsible for ensuring the demise of the company that made them.
today i found out that a close friend of mine finally got her greencard. she got here when she was 3, never really had much of another language and was always more of the sterotypical 'american girl' then me and today she finally gets to be the american girl she always was through and through. i'm really happy for her!

today I discovered a floater in my right eye. I already had one in my left (for many years).
But I can't say it's a matching pair. The left eye is more like a fruit fly, and the right eye is like a spider with broken legs.
Just got back from a week of being poked and prodded by a specialist, trying to figure out why my ankle doesn't seem to be healing as fast as it should. Turns out, I managed to sprain it far worse than initially thought and then being made to run on it only made the damage worse. I've been effectively told that if I do it again, I'm risking a good chance of permanent injury. I'm usually not the most apt to listen when a doctor tells me such things, since I'd rather just go by "does it feel right again", but I think this time I'll shut up and listen. The words "permanent, crippling injury" don't sound too pleasant.
I've also decided I'm going to give myself the challenge of creating a 2" x 3" comic book. I started playing with the idea of seeing if it's possible to create a legible, understandable comic at that size on the train ride home, and I think I can maybe manage to cram 3-4 panels into a page that size. It's projects like this one that make me prefer taking a train to flying. Much more relaxed, and you're way more likely to meet interesting people. For instance, this particular trip I met Kenny Chesney's ( He's an American country music star. ) accountant, and I have to say, she's pretty good looking. Good enough looking that I'd have contemplated hitting on her if I ever thought I'd find myself in Nashville, Tennessee. I've met a few other cool people too over the last couple years since I started taking the train, like a world war two vet who fell in love with riding trains going across Europe in the later part of the war, and a guy who said he was on his way to DC to try and get a job working for the Smithsonian. I get the impression that there's probably a lot of cool people on the plane too, but the environment isn't all that conducive to sitting down and having a chat with them.
And I'm going to stop now, before I take off on a full-on sleep-deprived babble-rant.

and oz is right, i am the iron maiden, just dont tell Roy Duncan.
and i havent gotten those ads either, PP
You guys really have to have the demographic to get the cool ads. Right now I have London by Virgin Atlantic, traveling to India and Botox. Never have those smiley ads because I'm not in that target demographic.
Ever since I've been to the opthmologist who went over everything about floaters and flashes and sparklers because of my eye surgery I don't worry because I now know what to be truly concerned about as opposed to the normal motes and floaters.
So I let my buffer run out and then shot a bunch of pictures and I have no idea what panels they're for. I started one page and then discovered an entire folder of alternate shots for that same page. So I have no idea what shots are for what panel and can't quite figure out what to edit into panels for the next page. Yuck, times like this why couldn't I have drawn this? Oh yeah I'm doing that for that radio play thing.
Good luck with the comic lba!
I have really boring eyes. I wish I needed glasses sometimes because then I could make them more interesting ^_^
I'd never wear fake ones though. Not unless I was acting or something.
Sooo, I just deleted another spammer… Another one of those fricken weirdos putting up links to Muslim prayer sites. WTF?
I'm all for freedom of religion but religious spam is something else >_<
On that spammer note though… they're getting pretty rare around here. Not many sign-ups or attempts to do stuff anymore. Heh, is it just because I'm more efficient now or have we reached an unprecedented stage of decline where even the spammers can't be bothered with us any longer?
LOL, they should've changed the name of this place from "The Duck" to "DuckSpace". ^_^
Roighty. I've steeled myself to undertake another DD soap scripting. I find those quite daunting now. But I shall press on ahead regardless! For Queen and country!
Tally-HO!!!!!!

It's probably part of some sort of garbled code and it turns out it was supposed to refer to Magnum PI!!! And suddenly Bravo1102 transforms into that very fellow, complete with baseball cap, Hawaiian shirt, and short-shorts. Then proceeds to narrate for a little bit before getting mysteriously shot at, rescuing a hot blonde and leaping into his red convertible Ferrari to try and get away from some bad dudes in a black Mercedes.
Man I loved that show… :(
This latest episode of the Quackcast will be a musical one. Not a very log musical though because turning those writing into rhyming verses is REALLY hard and involves adding and subtracting a lotta text. But it's fun at least :D

The smiley ads have very little to do with target demographics. Google ads rent out those slots to the highest bidder. People see different ads, depending on which network provider they're connected through, meaning that a New York based firm can buy banner ad slots that are seen from users connecting through New York servers.
If that were the case, then yes, there would be a target demographic where the New York firm is trying to make his ads available via New York web users and as such, they'd be willing to overbid any other offers for those banner ads.
However, I have a sneaky suspicion that not many US sites think about Icelandic servers as a fertile ground to bombard with ads and thus they tend to get ignored. In those cases, I'm getting bombarded with the lowest bidders, buying ad spaces on a global scale. You don't see these because they're being out-trumped by a firm that's outbidding the ad space on a local level. There's no target demographic in those cases. They're just trying to pander their shit to as many people as possible, for as little money as possible. Usually these things only last for few weeks but the smiley ads have persisted for months, even years. I remember seeing them before in other places, annoying the heck out of me back then but it was a god awful experience to discover them over here.
At least I'm now starting to see an occasional Icelandic ad, meaning that some local business are now looking into investing on google ads. So far it seems to be only Dominos Pizza, atm.
As always with the amazing explanations, good to see you here Einar. Oh yeah, this jerk is back. It's your friendly neighborhood Judas! Yeppers, thats the nickname I've chosen, my "title" as you will. Mr.Iscariot. Well, I suppose I should rant on something…Cadbury Eggs are getting smaller? Still, it's good to see some of the old crew still around. Miss me, no?
Well, I'm thinking of starting a proper comic, is the comic stuff here still alive and good for another entry?
Oh, and is Fightsplosion over? And Mafia Games? Is that over too?
