Pic of the Day #1032
Because the Rovers like to do weird and sometimes geeky things, it made perfect sense to fuse childhood memory and Internet pop culture into a single event…which saw the old board game "Hero Quest" transformed into "TROGDOR! Quest" (yes, of Homestar Runner fame).
You had to be there. But I did have fun taking pictures.
Playing around in Picnik for this shot as well; it’s a combination of the colour boosting effect and the softening effect, with some vignetting and a rounded border added in for effect.
Okay, granted, the TROGDOR! model we were using was kind of cribbed together from a bunch of other, non-Homestar-related sources. It still worked, kind of.

I started blogging back in 2004 -- in May, if the Wayback Machine is to be believed. Not that I remember the exact day. To be honest, I didn't take it that seriously then; it was a fun distraction, but nothing more.
That all changed, I think, once the Danish cartoons were published, and the assault on the right to freedom of expression became very visible. With the recent issues in Canada concerning the "human rights" commissions, the gravity of the matter has only increased, and my interest in blogging has increased right along with it.
I used to blog at a domain called Time Immortal, but it seemed to be the right time for a change -- there's been a lot of that in my life of late. Hence this blog: a fresh start, and proof positive that I won't shut up even if I get shut down once in a while.
