Truel






Zee ("Da Gud"), Tobee ("Da Badd") and Luna ("Da Ugly") hav had a dispute and hav dasided tah settle id in a truel. Zee iz da worst shot, hitting 1/3 ov da tyme. Tobee iz twice az accurit, getting hiz target 2/3 ov da tyme. Luna iz an awezome markscat, nevah mizzing. Itz bin dasided da firing order iz Zee denn Tobee (if alive) denn Luna (if alive). Awl three r yntarezded in staying alive az long az pawzible and fire accordingly. If 2 or mowa r ztill purring at da end ov a round, da survivors goe anothah round. Intentionally mizzing iz allowed. Wat shud Zee's strategy be and what's da probubbillitee he'll survive?

My Garden on August 6, 2009

PART ONE



PART TWO



Due to "insufficient Memory" I had to abruptly end this CiniMax film shortly after the filming of my rain gauge. These kind of technicalities can often happen in CiniMax Film productions.

53 Curlicues

Talk about "Structure and Chaos." A single, rather short, script in Scratch drives this thing. Click the image below to see more. There's a link at the top of the page you'll get to which shows this baby in action, complete with Mission Impossible music and a dynamic generation of each of the 53 "curlicues." All I've got to say is "this is a most interesting computer program!"


Now that I really look at the above image, I can honestly say "there is a bug in this program, and an extremely well designed one at that!"

Zee & Toilet Paper


In an attempt to post long movie of my garden today, I realized I needed some review of the Windows Movie Maker program. I've consulted with others on how to shorten it, and will post it when I learn how. For now though, I thought I'd post this funny image of Zee trying to completely demolish this role of toilet paper in my bathroom sink. Fortunately (for me) I was able to catch the mischief before too much damage was done.
