It's too easy to come up with titles for Steps that haven't happened, or at least haven't happened on-screen. Maybe, somewhere, Skysaber is reading some of these stories instead of the ones we got. Or maybe these might spark some ideas amongst the Fanfic^2 writers. Anyway, I thought it appropriate to collect them here as I notice (or come up with) them...

Any more?

It arrived today, finally. Vostro 1720, lots of goodies, lots of warranty and related coverage, beautiful cherry red (as in the wood, not the car color) case.
Now I just have to order the router -- which I will do as soon as I balance the checkbook and make sure we have money for it in the budget.

Positron explains new "Super Sidekicking System" in i16
My math skills may atrophy from no longer having to do complex algebra on mentors/exemplars, but that's worth the time saved in not having to figure out if
you can take one person or the other.
Edit the 1st:
Additional info: level restrictions for Hazard Zones are now being taken out, though there are still level restrictions for Hamidon Raid and PVP zones.
Edit the 2nd:
Ability to turn off e-mail function from anyone not on your friends list/supergroup = death knell of the old form of email spam.

| Incredible Photoshopped Image |

Last week someone on my ship sent out a group of photos for moral purposes. You know, the whole, "You think you've had a bad day? Check this
out!" thing. The one that caught my attention the most was a picture of the tail section of an Air Canada 747 disintegrating on landing.
Now, I would have thought we would all have heard something about this event, even if the plane had no passengers on board at the time. So, I did a quick
little google and came up with this result.
The image was a photoshop job. The reason why it looked so real, though, was because stock footage of an actual 747-100 being blown to pieces was used and
super-imposed on the AC 747, and quite excellently, too. Check it out!
