I'm not doing that.

-
Today, I was going to put up a fence and weed wack a yard and now extenuating circumstances have forced me to take the lazy route. I have been struggling with laziness for a few days now and although I don't want to succumb to its influence, I am going to.

Now when I refer to laziness I usually mean "the desire to not do stuff you should be doing" which is actually the meaning of irresponsible. Although I can't do those things I don't want to do, I have every intention of being industrious anyways. If I look at it closely, I can see my mislabeling it laziness makes me think I'm doing better in laziness because my laziness is actually industrious. Its a lie to help alleviate the guilt I feel for not doing this thing I don't want to do! And that thing I don't want to do is leave the house!

Ok so I don't want to leave the house and I feel guilty about it and I don't have to because it's raining outside!
And it looks like those trees are blocking my path!

vBonsai -Video Tutorial at the Bottom!

A menacing looking vine grown on my phone from an algorithm I wrote for my next android app:  Here is the same algorithm with branches, texture, and leaves! I drew the leaves in Microsoft Paint, but the bark is real bark from a picture edited in Gimp for the shadow, seamlessness, and color(And you can't see if from here but the bark of that tree was covered in cicadas). Note the draw function knows when to 180 the shadow in the right direction so shadows aren't on the top of the branches. Not all of the trees look this good. Many are scraggly or unbalanced. Meh, it's a work in progress! YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST! Got the gameplay mapped out. You will grow your tree from a seed and care for it and shape it to your whim using real(virtually) bonsai techniques. Watering and feeding schedules will be determined based on seasons and whether or not the tree is in training(stress) and health, etc Most recent emanation:  Whew! The

Sqeeqee

I think I have 200 accounts scattered all over the internet including 10 or so forums, 3 facebook accounts, a twitter account, google plus account, like 10 emails, 50 places I have ordered from- on and on! Why not add a sqeeqee account? I am not going to say that I am too lazy(as it is en vogue to say so) to check it out because I am not. I just have other priorities. Such as writing about something I am not going to research and know nothing about. Now THAT is important! That being said, I know mostly nothing about Sqeeqee.com. What I do know is that it is yet another social network that seems to be an amalgam of facebooklike features and ebaylike features and several others I am unaware of. I found it as the result of my marketing efforts for FlaTank and joined up. The appeal that it has for me is that it is still in beta testing. I am still seeing php errors in the ranking box sometimes and the claim to be 99% error free at this point. Usually stuff like this escapes me unti

Fate of the Furious Ending Scene

I was watching the ending scene where everyone is hanging out of the rooftop. As the camera pulled away from the actors I noticed something strange. The focal length of the camera was changed as the camera pulled away.  I decided to figure out where that was. I knew it was in New York City somewhere because of the establishing shots. After watching the sweeping shots in and out of the picnic scene and looking for visual clues, I found it: 767 10th Ave, New York, NY 10019  It's the building wherein resides Sonny's Groceries.   I wish I would have captured some images from the DVD but the library wanted it back. Before that, however, I matched up my view from Google Earth to fit the frame as best matches it in the movie.  You will have to watch it yourself to see how well I did. The whole city is a CG model and that rooftop is a fiction. Also, the tall building behind the one in the scene was made much shorter or removed altogether so the twin Clinto
