I am turned off 18 hours a day...
I have a new watch! Same as the old watch. YaY!!! ... I really have no idea what to type here. Hrm...what if ants had computers? Would the japanese ants have better computers? I think so.
Unless we had caffine in our ants...like jolt cola...then our ants would be unstoppable. They'd be faxing and h4xing everything. They'd make mech suits eventually. And fly through space and
shoot things. Things like space cars, which they'd also have. But then the japanese ants would launch an attack from their ant moon base and try and blow them up. But we'd be like "our shoes
are tastier than leaves!" and they'd get psyched out. Then the ants would move in and fix their moonbase to explode. It would explode and ants would be all over space and burn into the atmosphere,
and then the hu-mans would be like "ants!" So we'd better destroy the ant computers now so that their tiny mechs don't eat our brains while we sleep and watch TV.
In other news, I made a new pic. It looks all crazy, so check it out. Also, I made my haiku section. I'm gonna post a haiku there everyday, so be sure to check it. I'll be posting a link to
it in my signature in my rant, but be sure to check the previous/next haikus, since I don't post here every day. Check those out and stuff. Oh, if some of them seem violent, don't worry about
it, I'm joking. Really. If you want to bookmark just the haiku page and skip all the crap here, you can do so at http://www.ximwix.net/haiku/.
That's all for now, batman.

Mister Driller!
Well, I slept in today. I did get up for class, but I was tired. Between that class and my CS lab, I decided to sit around and do nothing. That nothing was occupied
by hot webcomic action. I came accross two new (well, new to me) ones and have added link buttons to them. Also, I added a link to Diesel Sweeties because it's one of my favorite
sites and deserves a link.
While reading Men In Hats, I followed a link to Wigu. It's a comic based on the Tinkle family. The cast basically consists of Wigu, the son,
Paisley, the daughter, and their parents whose names slip my mind at the current, late hour moment. The storyline is well written (well, I skipped most of the first chapter) and it kept me
entertained for some time. I'm using the less-funny of the two link buttons, but I think Paisley is the best character in the comic, so I'm using the link button with her on it. Here's a link
to a somewhat-random strip: somewhat-random strip.
From Wigu, I followed a link to Cat and Girl. It's a kinda weird comic that has sort of a 'more educated' target audience...but not in a kind of snobbish way.
It's not as slapstick as most webcomics, but I find most of it to be entertaining. I like this one strip in particular...but be sure
to actually visit the site and read more.
Diesel Sweeties I have read for a while now. It's a great comic. Solid storyline. The punchlines for a lot of the comics are rather low-brow, but it
still manages to maintain some class. Here's a semi-random strip...aarrrrr....
Welp...this was just sort of an update for the sake of updating...sooo....that's all.

Let me out...
Ever eat some Wint-O-Green Life Savers one night and then wake up in the morning with a massive neck cramp? Well, lemme tell ya, it sucks. It sucks hardcore. That was
a few days ago. Wednesday, actually. I couldn't look to the right without nearly crippling myself. I ended up having to skip my CS Lab. It's not that it was so unbearable that
I had to skip, it was more the consequences of a stupid idea I had. I figured, since my neck was really hurting, I would just lay down and sleep...or at least rest my head for
a while. Well, my bead is the second bunk. So...I had to climb a ladder and carefully crawl my way into a laying-down position. It's really not all too dificult to do, but
it can be very frustrating when you neck is sending major pain throughout your body because of seemingly random movements. Anyway, I eventually laid down. I had about 45 minutes
to lay there before I had to get up for lab. After laying there for about 15 minutes, I realized that my neck hurt no matter how I was positioned. I decided to get up and just
bear the pain until I pass out or something. Well, getting up out of bed took me about three times as long as it did to get in. By the time I got out of bed, going to lab was
right out. Instead, I sat at my chair in front of my computer.
At this point, I knew I was more or less stuck in one place. Moving in general was going to really really hurt. Sooooo, I figured I should do something. Thusly, I decided
to finally work on those blasted websites of mine. The stuff for my churches website that I had been slowly putting off ended up taking me about an hour to finish. This was both
cool and freaky. It was cool because I finished it. It was creepy because I know I couldn't do that stuff that quickly normally. Anyway, I moved onto the Shrubbery section of this
very site. I ended up coding most of it in one sitting. That code, of course, didn't really work that well...or at all. So I had a lot to fix up. I also had to completely change
the way the voting works (and I use the word 'works' loosely). It's still a little buggy, but it works. So, all you members out there (all 10 or so...), get your favorite shrubbery
and enter it into the shrubbery contest. If you're not a member, go make an account and do stuff and whatnot.
Next on the agenda of site updates is the "music" section. No downloads or anything, but more of a music review/discussion dealy. Those of you who read the Sketchbook should remember
the 'NoisE' section that I ran. It's gonna be like that. Very much like that. Only with some kind of discussion added in there. Whatever. It's not like anyone reads this site anyway.
After nagging me to get the Shrubbery section up and running, I, in turn, nagged shmike to update his friggen site. He did. There's a link button for it on the side. Go visit it
and read it. I mean, it's not likely he'll update it at all, but at least there's something there for now. Meh. I'm gonna go get me some chocolate milk and chinese food...you only wish
you were this lucky.

Of vending machines...
Okay, so there was sleeping and classes and homework and stuff. Then, i thought, 'Chocolate Milk!'. So, I go to the local vendatorium (the basement here) to score me some
chocolate milk. Intense Chocolate Milk! But no, oh no, I got the 'Intense Mocha Java'. This stuff is crap. It's like, 'look! chocolate milk!' and then you drink it and it's
like, 'oh crap! this is bad coffee!' So, I got stuck downing a bottle of 'intense mocha java'. Afterwards, I got some chocolate milk...more on that later.
Being bored, I scoured the internet for some entertainment. First, CCS sent me a link to an awesome flash
animation. Check it out and be awed and stuff. Second, there's Rate My Kitten. It's a good way to kill some time. Looking
at a kittens and stuff. Yeah.
Also, as I'm sure you probably didn't notice, I've added some more link buttons. First, there's RobotSkull. I've read RobotSkull for a while now. He just pulled a prank on
some emo dating service and the results were quite hilarious, I think. Anywho, I couldn't find the link button on the site, so ended up scouring an old design of YeOG for it. I
did find it, and there it is. The next one is for Men In Hats. It's a webcomic from the guy who used to do Pentasmal. If you didn't read Pentasmal, too bad. All of it's archives
are on KeenSpot Premium now, so unless you pay up YOU WILL GET NOTHING!! Regardless, MiH is quite humorous and has been keeping me entertained throughout the past couple of
weeks.
Um...that about covers it. Oh, site info...I worked on the new Shrubbery section a bit. Thanks to Mike (shmike)'s constant nagging, I'll probably have it up and running in two weeks...more
or less...

It's cold and hurty...
Woooo! Who likes updates?! I know I do. Not too much is going on. I've downloaded quite a few saturn games, including Sexy Parodius (which is creepy and japanese hard) and Dracula X. Dracula X is cool because it's Symphony of the Night
only with more stuff. Like, you can choose who you want to be at the beginning. You also have the choice of being Maria, who seems kind of cool to use. There's also new sections of the castle and stuff. I'll get around to playing it eventually.
Let's see...what else...classes. Classes are, naturally, quite boring...but not so boring that I'll fall asleep...so things are good, i guess. Also, I bought this bright keychain flashlight to replace my old one...which was dying and falling off of my
keychain entirely too often. Check the webcam to see more.
Hrm...anything else...I still haven't worked on the Shrubbery section, but I probably should have. Yeah, that's about all I've got...so...yeah...
