EVE for the masses.

Ok, Im back to EVE, after a long hiatus, and it is wonderful. CCP is now offering EVE for OSX and Linux. I have made a torrent for the 41765 Build. Download EVE via Torrent.

My new obsession.

Those of you who know a thing or two about me know I have been fairly obsessed with a little game called [tag]EVE[/tag] for the better part of two years now. You also know that, much like Dr. Jekyll, there is a small portion of my soul which wishes to be rid of the monster.

Well, unfortunately, I haven’t quite gone cold-turkey from the bitch yet, but I have found something which very well may ween me off the addiction. [tag]Bulfleet[/tag].

Bulfleet

Now, I’m not going to give a review on Bulfleet yet, so you going to have to check it out yourself. In a nutshell, it’s free, it’s an MMORPG, and there is no software to download. Enjoy.

Past few weeks

Well it’s been a bit, again, and now summer is in full swing.

Quite a bit has happened since we last spoke. It’s hard to wrap my mind around just how fast this summer is going by.

Tara AllainThe Miss Maine pageant went off pretty well. You know, back in June. Karissa Staples passed on the title of Miss Maine to Tara Allain and the controversy began.

Tara is a good looking young lady, and smart, and talented. You know, just general Miss “Some State Here” material. However, usually “Some State” is the contestant’s home state, and when it’s not, people get pissy… In this case, Tara meets all the criteria to run for, and take home, the Miss Maine title, by residing in the state of Maine for such and such number of months out of the year. Unfortunately, as Tara hails from Worcester, Mass, the finicky folks in the crowd decided to put up a fuss…

And being the webmaster (and in turn, receiving all mail sent to missmaine.org, but not a real mail account) I get the mother-load of complaints. To top it off, administration refuses to make a public statement about it, so I am liable to keep receiving them as word gets out… I feel like saying “I don’t get paid enough for this,” but bitching like that requires that you get paid for it in the first place… Which I don’t…

[2008-01-07 Update: I noticed some links coming in regarding this post (particularly this topic in this post), and I thought I would elaborate. Things have been officially cleared up. It wasn’t long after this post that the head of the board started explaining things to those who were concerned, and there is no longer (hasn’t been for months) confusion about Tara’s legitimacy. She meets all the criteria to run for Miss Maine, and she has turned out to be a wonderful representative for our state. We’re all quite proud of her, and feel she’ll do quite well at the 2008 Miss America Pageant in Vegas in two weeks. See you there!]

Whats a good pageant without a little controversy. Donald knows what I’m talking about. Continue reading ‘Past few weeks’
