Rantography

First, a note about the picture: it's more-or-less temporary. I was getting tired of seeing a big blank space next to my name! For the time being, that's the symbol I'm using for standard run-of-the-mill entries. In the future I'll be making smaller entries with more subject-specific themes. People interested in alchemy might recognize it as the seal describing vitriol. Despite that, it doesn't necessarily mean that every entry with that icon is going to be full of flames! =) This one, however, might be.

By the way, just to get this off my chest: Orrin Hatch is a blathering idiot. He wins the 'Shooting off my mouth with no idea of what I'm talking about' award. I welcome Sen. Hatch's response as per proposed federal regulation that states any criticism posted on a web site must allow a response by the criticized party.

Also in a side-note: A "meaning of your LJ name" applet thingy has been appearing in peoples' blogs lately. I would post mine, but some of it is just really... no, REALLY *wrong* that I really shouldn't. =) I will say this, though: when do I win my free Coke?

( Open for rantage about Sprint PCS )

There now. I feel better. =)

Not much else has been happening. Modelling for Final Project Take 2 is almost done, then I can worry about texturing. Fortunately, I only have a bit of rigging and animating to worry about. THis should turn out to be a pretty darn good demo reel. I'm billing it as a 'Game Cinematics and In-Game Demo Reel.' Which means, HIRE ME and i'll work on your FMV cutscenes and/or your gameplay!


( A brief word.... )

Anyway! Not much, as usual, going on. Listening to insanely bouncy J-pop because it actually is somewhat cheery and because it makes decent main titles music. Things are going pretty swimmingly with the final project and I'm rather pleased with it. This weekend, after a few tweeks to Project Take One I'll be back to rendering. I haven't yet dropped the BOMB on THEM yet (see my previous-to-last post) but I think they're starting to expire anyway. Sorry, little fellas, but you got into my evolutionary niche. You wouldn't want to spend much time where you are now, anyway; you don't know where I've been. =)

Just in case they don't go away, anybody have a reeeeeeelly tiny atomic bomb they can spare? Like, a yield of a couple hundred nanotons? I promise to file an Environmental Impact Statement before using it.

Non-Sequitor Man Strikes Again!: I wonder if an EIS for the Trinity tests was filed? That must be one heck of a piece of history! Uh, that is, if there even was a requirement for EIS's back then.
