What Medical Professionals say…

Friday, May 16th, 2008

Before the procedure…

*They Say…*	*They Mean…*
This won’t hurt at all	This will probably hurt a little
You may feel some pressure	This will probably hurt you
You might feel a slight prick	This is definitely going to hurt you
There might been some stinging	You will have to muffle a cry of pain
This may hurt a little	You will need restraints, I’m watching for a violent response
This will hurt	You may prefer death, in fact people have died from the pain alone during this procedure

There goes the weekend

Friday, March 30th, 2007

There is a new version of Desktop Tower Defense out (V1.2). To quote the news page,

1.2 finally released! And a new front page, which sucks a little bit less than the old one. The update contains all new quicker pathing, a new creep type, a new tower type, a new creep distribution, more challenge modes, a new fun section and lots of small fixes. The towers have been rebalanced slightly to make way for the bash tower. Older versions will no longer be able to submit scores. I am also in the process of upgrading the server which all your donations have allowed me to afford. Thanks!

I do believe I saw a creep squeeze between two diagonally aligned towers!

He’s hard.

I’ll just quote you one,

“Chuck Norris once challenged Lance Armstrong in a “Who has more testicles?” contest. Chuck Norris won by 5.”
