I feel like I whine too much, but I'll share with you why y'all haven't seen me posting here much or on Steam for months: I bought a condo. A nice one at that, and promptly had a fire in the complex a month later. I am in the middle of a post-fire remodel (put BEAUTIFUL bamboo flooring in downstairs and a killer all stainless steel kitchen. Doing all of the work myself, btw.) The upstairs is damn near stripped to the joists and is getting flooring next month. I already have materials, just not the time. I moved a futon to my awesome basement office in the meantime, and am sleeping down there. Showering @ daughters house.
Lost my gaming PC in the fire. And my new router. So, I have come to the point in time where my desk is set up and I am buying a new PC. I saved my Windows 7 notebook and macbook, but they can run games like Sims 3 and not much more. Eager to get back into PC gaming. Hope to see you on Steam/Minecraft soon!

Damn man that sucks. Sorry to hear that. Speaking of fires, there's been a shitload of fires in my state and there was one only a couple miles from my house. :O
Well next time you're on steam and I'm on steam, just hit me up for a match of l4d2 or some other game.;)

I am @ Jen's house a lot. I am here now dl-ing L4D2, actually. It runs well on my Windoze notebook. I have it running to my 50 inch and have a bluetooth mouse, so it is pretty awesome to game on.

Are you in Texas sNeaksie? My dad's place just missed getting torched there... But I saw some statistic (don't know the veracity), out of 253 counties, 251 reported wildfires. That's INSANE! Edit: Even if that's exaggerating, I still read it's the worst wildfire spat on record.
Also saw this is your 5000th post here, congrats.
Oh, something on Minecraft... right. Uh, Finally got around to building a portal to the nether. Obsidian is a bitch to collect. Now trying to build a little fortress at the entryway there just to have something to actually go into. Sort of nice I don't need torches; just light up some netherrack.

jeb_: @davecricket @notch You need to generate new areas.
As it looks now, beta 1.9 will also require new generation:( ... i was kind of hoping they manage to avoid that.

Sucks to hear about your house, gunny! Hope everything works out for you.

Thanks demagogue.;)
Yep I'm in TX, there's been a lot of talk about the fires around here.

Yeah, I think so.
Um, being on topic.. uh, it's weird hoping on from time to time and not seeing anyone on. I assume either people aren't getting on much, or I'm just getting on at weird times. Also, I've got a structure I've been working on that's probably gonna need to be transferred to the new world, seeing as how I've been neglecting to work on it lately.

So what happened in Texas, sneaksie? Did a random chicken spontaneously combust and wander into the brush?

I was making a reference to the Great Mansion Fire of 2010. :p
