8/20 Hey everyone! Ok, right down to business. Posted comics 31 and 32. Also, I corrected the little boo boo of not actually making the link button for Poke'Hunters work. Heh, forgot to make it linked yesterday till late. Anyway, thats about all I can think of to say for the moment in present, except that next update should be on Thursday. Now I'll move on to the Trip Report!
Ok, this is the section where, if you don't care what I do, just don't bother reading. But I like to consider myself a rather open and personal author, so I'm going to talk about things I do unless I get a large amount of complaints and noone saying they like it. But anyway, here it goes. Basically, I went up to Wisconsin to visit family for a while and do whatever there was to do in that time. I hung out alot with my cousins and did what I could with them. Early on we went to The House on the Rock. If you've never heard of this, its like a giant and rather odd museum. It starts out in the actual house, which was pretty neat, and then moved into a great deal of other exhibits. One of the oddities this place sports is a great deal of completely mechanical orchestras. These don't always sound the best, but they are neat all the same. One other thing would be the room dedicated to the sea, which in the middle of which is a giant model of a whale and a squid locked in combat. This thing is HUGE, ranging a great deal of feet and about 3 stories high. If you are ever in Wisconsin with some free time, I suggest checking this place out. Also, we got a chance to go to GenCon. This is a big gaming convention, which, if you hadn't already guessed, is right up my ally. They had every type of gaming covered?; computer, board, card, and tabletop battlegame. We checked out most of the stuff, including a fantasy art gallery, and played a little Lord of the Rings Warhammer. This was the fellowship vs a troop of goblins and the fellowship tended to lose... oh well. We did alot of other stuff too, like hitting the museum and two art museums, in which the modern "art" sections thoroughly disgusted me. I don't know, maybe I just don't understand, but when I see 5 different color squares lined in a row, a pile of 175 pounds of candy in a corner, or a set of lights not even arranged in a particular way I don't think "art". I think "If people consider this art I'm going to add it to my continuing growing list of reasons why I am ashamed to be a member of the human race." If anyone cares to explain modern art to me, I'll be happy to listen, because I really wanna try and understand it. Well, this about ends my report, cause the other stuff was pretty self explanitory festivals or just hanging out with family. Cya all again on Thursday
