Day 11: something fun

30 day photo challenge, day 11: something fun. Another attempt at messing with my camera: shooting bright objects on top of a black glass shelf, right by a black plastic console. This was a lot simpler than my experiments with the right camera settings for our gray cat, and this time the flash actually worked, HDR did not give me a better result.

Those three games are all 100+ hours of pure fun. Borderlands is just plain dumb fun, both in single user and co-op. Tiger Woods 12 is not the best in the series, but it is the first time the Masters is included in the franchise so it was well worth it. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood was AWESOME.

On sleep deprivation and Incan Monkey Gods

From: Dilbert comic strip for 08/03/1992 from the official Dilbert comic strips archive. I was trying to show this strip to a coworker who is dangerously toying with the harsh mistress that is Insomnia. What shocked me is how quickly I was able to look up the strip, which was published when he was just 11 years old, and two weeks before my just-out-of-college ass shipped out to US Army Basic Training.

The Black Hole

If this was a minigolf hole, you can't reach B from A. Ever. If this was a room lined with mirrors, and you lit a candle at point A, you can't see it from B, not even reflected. Update: I guess I didn't explain this all the way through. You can't reach B from A with just one stroke, there's no direct line between them, and there is no way to bounce the ball (assuming perfect conditions). Thanks to Ben for pointing this obvious error.
