All rights reserved. en-us Pyro_ I realize I already had a leave of absence but c'mon a month is nothin' compared to the year spans I did before. And to my surprise people remembered me. Now that everyone seems to be leaving again that probably won't be the case. None the less I thought I'd be all proper about it and do a blog post. Because I care. Heh. Anyway. I really don't know what to say, except I warned people I thought that screen shot would be my last. And I didn't really know if I'd be hanging around IRC or forums or anything. Other than looking for library notices for my books I haven't been on my computer at all. Sometimes I got the urge to check something -- admittedly not this, but another forum I was obsessed with. But the very thought of checking anything completely overwhelmed and petrified me. To the actual point of where I just still haven't because I can't. I only popped on here to check up on things .... to find a "sleeping giant" is not what I'd hoped been going on in my absence. Okay, other than rambling here's some real reasons why I'm leaving again. It's not really because anything awesome happened it's not like I've decided to get married and have kids ... actually that wouldn't be awesome at all. But you get the idea. For those that know me a bit, I got a job finally, and soon I'll be moving. I'm not entirely sure where, but probably not far just yet. My family is moving away to North Carolina and I think they may actually do it this time unlike the last two years they said they were going to. And yeah blah blah blah I really didn't want to put that much in my blog. But I'm long-winded in text. And in person for that matter I talk too much once I get started. I had hoped to keep in touch with some people through email but I didn't receive any, and am a coward so probably won't send any. But don't feel neglected (as if) because "real life" people suffer the same plight from me, I haven't really seen or talked to anybody in a month either. Work work work is all I've been doing. And I hate attempting to end things, this is already a novel that's probably full of bad grammar I'm sorry to all my lovely English major-type people who will now murder me. And I bid you (all) farewell. :) Mon, 26 May 2008 04:52:55 -0500 http://customize.org/blogs/view/298 http://customize.org/blogs/view/298 Pyro_ help tutoring questions Okay I thought since some people genuinely want to learn to customize, take the time to figure stuff out, and do things themselves - and don't just ask "gimme tht mod plz?" or "do thiz 4 me plz" - they deserve to be helped too. I helped Egolatra way back when he did his first screen shots as - Dios - now I don't think I did all that much; but after I helped him a bit, he then took it upon himself to keep improving. And now he's a pretty well-known guy. So basically I just thought I'd make an open invitation to anyone who needs help and is willing to learn. And most importantly since I am posting this, you need not be embarrassed about asking for help; or think I wouldn't help if you did ask. Now I'm not sure if there's a whole lot of people that really do need too much help; but if you think you need some help with your screen shot, feel free to email me about it. That's just for my personal help with your customizing needs, basically like one-on-one tutoring, hands-on type of deal. If you don't need that much help, just go to custo and view the help section. ;) Mon, 07 May 2007 20:15:02 -0500 http://customize.org/blogs/view/113 http://customize.org/blogs/view/113 Pyro_ I think the tolerance for every thing has simply become too much. Just a decade ago homosexuality was just not talked about. Now there's gay jokes every where, some quite crude. Some things talked about that just don't need to be. The same goes with racism obviously, they used to say racism never went away, they're just not as open about it now. Well I don't believe that, I think every one is getting way more open about every thing. And not for the better in any regard. Also it's the same with sexuality, 20 years ago it was unheard of to speak of it. Now every where you look you are bombarded with it, and not for the better. Kids are getting pregnant at 12 years of age now, making the age to talk to them about "safe sex" younger and younger. But has it helped? No there's still to much unsafe sex going around, HIV and AIDS problems, and unwanted pregnancies abounding. And people just plainly having sex at to young an age. Whatever happened to the sanctity of marriage?
