If you want, I cant host that on my webpage....and then people can read it from there and comment on it here.
choice is yours though.
Holy HOTDOG, Saraphim!!! I turn around and you're posting novels!!!! Not that it is a bad thing. -_- I guess I need to read it soon. *_*
Or at least some of it.
PLEASE DON"T SING THE RUBBER DUCKY SONG!!!! (in the background, a song starts up.) .....rubber ducky, your the one, you make bath time SO MUCH FUN.....
AUGH, AUGH, AUUUGH!!!!
Anyway your story very good and unique.
It is very interesting when people throw a spin on things we see everyday. That one has to take the cake.
Super neato.
And to firegem, I liked your story. It was very abstract and FUNNY!!! I like making stories like that! I still have to work on my funny bone in writing. I am pretty good at art, and such related, but writing stories and being like what your story was, is unique. This oppinion is the HONEST truth.
Welcome to coorperate America fella's; Welcome to America.
HWee? I don't understand.
I think there are MANY melissas.....sigh, this is going to get confusing.
BTW, welcome back! Are you sure it has been 3 years? and who has been away for three years....AUGH brain hurts...
Yes, your right. I know I don't do any of it myself so why fill it into your life.
...but compared to a lot of things it, especially games out today, it is FAR FAAAAR more cleaner than they are.
Either way, I don't plan to play it again. *Shrugs shoulders.
thanks

Really? I stole it from April's student handbook. ^_^
It means FEAR of big words. Look it up at www.dictionary.com
Wow.....I am swimming in.....uh.....LOTS OF POSTS!!!
Welcome to RIPP3R, you are in good company, I am not good with the whole grammer thing either.
And to Saraphim....uh wow. I'll have to read that some other time. That is a whole lot of STUFF. *_*
thanks
mike
Well, I got it yesterday. Weirdly enough it seems to be saddled with some sort of protection. Or it could be my computer has a newer thing to block such things. I don't know. Anyway, my program that I normally use, VLC, choked and died after spewing random bits and pieces everywhere (said CRASHED HORRIBLY several times). I did manage to view it as my computer will allow my to change the officlal DVD player's region a total of four times (now three). The quality is priceless, the rip just doesn't do it justice whatsoever. As for the extras, I found them to be a little random at best, all they had was a kind of timeline for all the final fantasy 7 things. It went through the two crisis games, hit on vincen'ts game and also included the trailer for advent and many scenes from the original game (japanese version of course) Well worth the fifty bucks, but after having problems with the region coding, I might be tempted to offload it onto certain siblings (BTW, you are getting the PS2 back, don't ask, you already know why
I'm selectively purging, its not an all out blood fest this time)
While this means that I'm not going to play Final Fantasy 7 ever again (serious this time) this is an incredible boon for Zelda, as I will still play all of those and keep their respective systems (once again THIS TIME) While I am confused at the direction I must take to truly turn from my anxiety and offcolor habits, I think I am being led in the right direction. Now to get back to that Wizardry series! Diane Duane is awesome!
Oh boy sounds like fun.....
Btw, I looked into that artist that does the covers for the diane duane wizardry series. They were cool except for the second one. I found that one to be quite....um....how do you put it... OFFENSIVE. So anyway.
Mwa, seven has too much swearing. -__-
Actually they tone it down quite alot. They use the #@%@#$% stuff occaisonly....and truthfully once you get passed the first part with barrett on the train...and the whole midgar thing, there really isn't that much more excesive cussing.
you want me to start? Well, alright. ^_^ As you wish...
woof. I'll be waiting.
thanks
mike
Yes indeeeeeeeed you should write more... Yes indeeeeeeeed.
Just as a notice, I am still working on the Panda story, but this week I am writing a new short story. We are doing a writing group get together saturday before General Conference starts, so I wanted a story that I had more control over...and was more in my expertise. I will post it.....maybe....once I recieve feedback and comments from everyone in the group.
BTW for those of you on this group, which this is technically who this meeting is for, can't make it, you can e-mail me a short story, or an excerpt, which is 5-10 pages max, double spaced and I will take it there, and act as if you were there. Comments will be written on the pages.
If anyone is interested please tell me, and I will make sure to expect your e-mail. Again, to repeat myself, it is THIS SATURDAY.
Thanks
mike
Michael, I just realized that your avatar is EXTREMELY FUNNY, that is just so totally awesome.
Thank you. Did you see what was happening? It is an actual animation that flows.....only problem is that there is no inbetween frames so it is rather speratic. Sigh.....
Hmmmm.....there are many ways to do a colaborated peice of art......
Personally I would feel comfortable if Saraphim does a concept sketch, then I clean it up and flesh it out and either she or I colors it.
Personally, if you want, I could do that one sketch that you just posted. That looks like a fun peice to FLESHEN out. It has a whole lot of potential. But if I was to do that one, I would need to know a little more background...so I could make the picture more lively....like fish, or bugs or leafs on the water...the concept of the world... Just something general like that.
That is my idea. Tell me what you think.
thanks
mike
So where do I fit in?
hmmmm..... no comment. My brain is FRiiiIEeeeED fried. I think I spelt that right. X_X death to my brain.
WOOOOOWWW....One second there are little tiny posts....to suddenly.....BOOOOOOM!!!!!
To Saraphim,
the writing tips were really good information...though it sounded more like you quoted it from a book. -_-
I could feel that they were desighned to be motivational and to invigorate one to write....Nothing is wrong with that. I was just wondering if that was the Main Point.
Writing is rather draining of ones emotions. When one writes a story, hopefully they would put all of their heart and soul into it and it then makes one suseptable to depression....and making one feel that they cannot write. Or it can also be called WRITERS BLOCK. Which is part of using up all of ones heart and soul, but could also be partly because the writer is stuck on a particular part of the story...
Welcome back Ygramul, it is good to see you! And to what you said,
Mike: I just realized, I have never really thought about how animals view the world around them. I think that is what makes your story intriguing for me. I don't know what to expect so I [patiently continue to read and find out what happens next. I would like a little more description of the temple. You're right. I know nothing about China or it's customs, but most people wouldn't who would read what you've written.
I hope it was helpful, my descriptions, I mean. And as for the view of the animals and finishing the story....I hope that you will be pleased as I continue to write on it. I did not ge a chnace to write on it this week...unfortuneatly....
Oh, and I also tend to pick up the structure of whatever I'm reading or what I'm listening to. A scene that is supposed to be just nice and pleasant can turn into a big arguement because I'm listening to faster paced music. Or I might kill someon that I didn't plan to die. But then my characters sort of take on a life of their own and I am only dictating the the story.
You are very right....music has a very POWERFUL influence on ones emotions and writings. MAN....so much to comment to. sigh.. and with you are right. BOOkS are so much clearer and better than movies. A lot of the time, movies shouldn't even be made. For example, I have never read the ACTUAL neverending stories book, and I never heard of the spider that you mentioned. So sad.
And to blewjewl...wow, so much to comment today..and I am so distracted. Sigh.....
I know that I will still have my writing ability....but it is hard to see past what I am actually writing. Sigh....my internet is about to die. 0_0 sigh.....I will comment on the rest latter. AUGH!!!!!!!!!!
I will work on what you ask me to do. thanks for your comments Blewjewl AND EVERYONE ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks
mike

Pfft! Bandwagon.
hey, this looks way cool, how long can it go for? and i want to join te writing group!! sorry i havnt been getting on alot recently, ive been real busy.
Firegem, the writing group is over here: http://jerbl.com/forum/viewforum.php?id=8 under 'THe Writing Group.' Anyone can join.
thanks
mike
if you have any questions then just post em here or on that forumn.
Not the Revolution controller. I mean THE gallery. The Jerbl gallery. He's bringing it back.
Edit: This gallery. http://jerbl.com/gallery
I KNOW that the gallery is being brought back....the post that Jeremy said 'HERE' and it was highlighted, was a link to his gallery page. -_- Ok
so anyway. That was what I was sayin.
BTW, where is Ygramul? I bet your busy with school and work...I think you have work. anyway.
This is funny, I am quoteing myself...^_^
so anyway.
Just as a heads up, I got an e-mail from Ygramul....LIfe is VERY hectic right now. I imagine though, that she will be showing back up. With EVERYONE BUSY and posting about once a week, this is a rather slow moving group....but I will kick my pace up and work harder at correcting and making this more involving. So.....
I plan to edit and change the Panda story, according to you'alls comments. ^_^ Personally I really need to condense it, but I LOVE every part of it. Editing it is like cutting off an arm. Sigh....I shall see what I can do about everyones suggestions. Tomarrow is going to be a glorios day, because it is going to be JAM packed with a super new schedule that I am trying out. Breaking my day up one hour blocks and sorting out my priorities. It is so cool what can be accomplished if everthing is held in a keen balance.
thanks for let me talk at everyone.
I'll talk to everyone later.
P.S. If anyone has any particular method or technique to help others in writing....and such, they will just be as accepted. Though it seems that everyone here has no problem with generating ideas.....JUST POST SO I CAN COMMENT AND POST MYSELF.

mike
He actually posted it in http://jerbl.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=550 topic and called it HERE in his second to last post.
No....but the conversation was just completely USELESS. It is a conroller.....that is all it is. -_-
Wierd people gettin' all exited about a controler. *_*
That really stinks.....did your broswer go CRAZY so that you lost it? Even so that is a real bummer. Nothing is more frustraing than spending time to write something and LOOSE IT. When I e-mailed you for the first time...about this group, as I was writing it, I lost the e-mail....and I was 98% done.
So I understand.
I can wait.
thanks
mike
BTW, where is Ygramul? I bet your busy with school and work...I think you have work. anyway.
and What happened to all of those people that you were going to get to join blewjewl? Not that I mind who is participating. I am just curious.
.............-_- geek talk.
sigh.
Thankyou! I thought it was funny when Panda fell asleep too!
