I have some interesting ideas of stuff to post. One such idea might get me thrown into a vat of tar or burning oil, but we will cross that bridge when we come to it. The reason I have not been posting is because I finished up Psych Midterm II (out of four) last week. And it usually follows that in the aftermath, I am lazy as hell. So, on the weekend, I played through the entirety of Half-Life 2. During this playthrough, I discovered that I had never beaten the game completely before. Since my brother and I played at the same time, my save files were typically overridden by his. So…I would just load a new game from the “section” or “level” of the game where I thought I had left off. As a result, I actually skipped two sections of the game en route to completing it. Boy do I feel stupid.

As a result of this, I felt the game was even MORE fantastic than I had ever thought before. I have downloaded Half-Life Episode One. I started playing it yesterday, but some textures were missing so I had to download an update. All of the steel walls in the citadel appeared without a skin at all (it was a purple-black checkerboard pattern underneath) and certain types of debris were invisible. This made navigating a narrow walkway on a ridge impossible. I kept hitting something and falling off the edge.

Anyway, Episode One and Two should be complete when I get home from work tonight. If they both work, I will post it up here and let everyone know. That way, if you need a copy, I can hook you up. Fo’ sho’.

To conclude, I just want to leave you with this peculilar thought that struck me once while watching Heroes.

If Claire can regenerate any part of her body after it has been damaged or removed, doesn’t that mean that - biologically - she will always be a virgin? Think about it.
