My intuition is telling me this is not a galaxy mod.

My intuition also reminds me of your Keen 3000 klik & play fangame.

Thank you for the update LL, it's appreciated. Sorry to hear all that bad stuff has been going on.

On the plus side, wrecking buildings sounds fun. I hope you pick/sledgehammered the spiders that bit you back. At least they weren't asbestos, which is the far bigger risk in building demolition. (Or any kind of building work, including renovation or even entering a roof - people reading this, please check for asbestos before you do ANYTHING, even if it's just making a small hole in some plasterboard!)

I do not fear asbestos, it is surprisingly bad at killing you. There's a town in (where else) Australia that's taking an awful long time to die despite being pretty much made of the stuff. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wittenoom, ... _Australia

Basically it was lightweight timber and corrugated iron structures with some concrete path smashing, tree removing and steps-putting-inning. The spiders are only really dangerous to small children and maybe not even that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White-tailed_spider (People still however swear that there have been deaths so I don't know.)

Indeed, I uploaded the wrong photo, but all the sledgehammer ones were taken in poor light. I also have a leverage bar.

Not until my movie comes out. *2034 right after the third Howard The Duck release.)

It could be a pick, it could be a sledge hammer, but either way, you don't argue over semantics with someone who's wielding one. You just calmly accept whatever they decide to call it.

...Hey, what's that little animal in the corner? It's so cute.
The lady here is 86 or so years of age.

The animal is a mongrel chihuahua.

A basic two-player mode, yes.

Well it's doing an awfully good job of killing a family member of mine and other people I know.

So was this engineered from Coopkeen or Commander Genius?

I see you've played sledgehammery-picky before.

Yeah mate, come the raw prawn Sydney Opera house!


Well, this weekend was... eye opening. It hit me like a lead anvil. There's nothing quite like seeing someone you've known (However tenuously) reduced to not even being able to get out of a chair. It's strangely sobering and slightly depressing and it makes you wonder about how your own life may end.

I won't say much on this since it's LL's life and not mine but wow, I don't know when this cloud of gloom will lift.

No, it's built from scratch using the Keen 5 engine. Hope to have a video out about it in the next few days.

Pretty much, it's my default now.
