I picked up Meteos a few nights ago, it’s a pretty fun puzzle game. The basics are the same as all puzzle games I guess, align blocks to make them disappear. The catch in this game is that they blast off into space and different planets have different gravity fields and some other variables that keep gameplay interesting. A few days ago Google launched their video service and now it seems many people have uploaded copyrighted material. Enjoy.
While trying to figure out a new hiptop program I was messing with HTTP headers coming from webMathematica, checking the streams I found this neat url, replace “x” with your integrand and prepare yourself….
Yesterday I spent all day at the Ford Factory in Dearborn, watching F150’s and Lincoln Mark LT’s be built. The process is very interesting and the Ford compound is mind-blowingly huge. I can’t imagine assembling the buildings and getting everything set up for production. The building where they produce the trucks has the largest ‘living roof’ which is basically a moss-grass hybrid that helps heat and cool the plant as well as decrease the urban effect of so much concrete in the area. One interesting thing to note is that Ford actually employs a full-time beekeeper. Think about that. The last few days I’ve been going to Clio as well, trying to master blunt stalls in a mini. I’ve got blunt fives down pat, just need to work on blunt to fakies now. I was having fun there today. I landed a clean kickflip rock and a big melon 180 off a 1.5 ft ramp. It’s almost getting too hot to skate out now. Hopefully the heat and humidity will hold off though… I just spent nearly $200 on 10 new decks with grip, pretty good deal if you ask me. I think I’m changing my plane ticket date so I’ll have an extra week in Florida, not sure when that will be finalized though.
Upon the release of his solo album Billy also announced the Pumpkins would be reunited, no details about who’s in it or when. But this full page ad was ran in at least two major Chicago newspapers. I’m excited. I just heard ‘Tilt’ the preorder bonus from iTunes too, it should have been on the album.
