I haven't had a database error yet today.  Again, though, that would be a server problem, rather than a forum problem.

Tonight, I'll start posting some pics from my trip.

The heat here is fine.  A bit muggy, but fine.

Goodness.  Thankfully no one was hurt, but losing a home that way...  I've experienced a house fire, and losing your home and memories in such a destructive fashion is heartbreaking.  My sympathies to the homeowners and family.

And I just shot off another feedback e-mail for this app I'm testing.  Unfortunately, it's for a feature that's not even implemented, yet.

Flying through three timezones in four hours and losing the three hours I had gained when I flew to San Francisco...  Yaaaaaay time travel.

Depends if I want to pay for hot pizza in a half-hour, or save money and bake a frozen pizza.

Showers or baths?

(Might be a good spot to skip ahead to them on the road or some scenario that brings more scene progression, unless anyone has anything planned for overnight.)

O'Hare is huge and confusing.  Newark has these ghetto terminals and gates from where the regional jets and crop dusters fly out.  The only airport I like is Harrisburg's, because it's puny.

Back at home, and I find out that my tub drain is now entirely stopped up.  I put in a maintenance request, but that'll be a while.

Quickie fussed with her sleeping bag and began to settle into it. "Either way, something's up.  And if we're going to find out what that something is, we'll need to be well-rested for it."

Mewtwo nodded and curled up on the ground beside her. "I will maintain a loose watch.  While I will not be entirely awake, I will still maintain a level of awareness, should something happen.  I will also make periodic perimeter checks."

Mewtwo nodded. "This cannot be an accident."

Meanwhile, in Viridian City...

Giovanni stalked into his office, glaring at anyone who dared approach him.  He had a hard night, and he simply did not wish to deal with any nonsense from his agents or his grunts.  Two of his most incompetant agents had the gall to contact him during a meeting with his stock broker.  Something about some damn Pikachu; the two were downright obsessed with capturing some kid's Pokemon.  Not even a rare creature--a damn Pikachu!  How the very notion that he wanted this thing even crossed their dimwitted minds was beyond him.  Whatever.  It keeps them busy.  Giovanni sipped his coffee as he unlocked his office door.

He had far more important things to worry about than that woefully-incompetant duo.  Sitting at his desk, Giovanni booted up his computer and searched his contact lists for the scientists involved with the Mewtwo Peoject.  He had already tried contacting Blaine, but was unable to locate the man.  Mr. Fuji simply refused to speak to him, and even cited calling his lawyer, something that Giovanni really did not wish to become involved with.  Dr. Wily was left, and after several changes of address, he had proved to be a difficult quarry to track.

Domino, Giovanni's most trusted agent, was in the process of further tracking Mewtwo, all the while putting a trace on the mysterious Obsidian fax.  Giovanni sneered.  He had an augmented Alakazam in his possession, and Domino planned to use it to trace the paper.  The creature was enhanced to be able to learn two more abilities, and this particular Alakazam was trained in telemetry--a skill derived from Mewtwo.  The project, though not as large as the cloning experiment, was only a test bed for other experiments, and should this Alakazam be able to get a lock on the origin of the Obsidian fax, it would prove to be a success.

Giovanni sipped his coffee and considered the situation.  First, that dimension-hopping lunatic, then Obsidian, and then Mewtwo.  Three seemingly-disparate happenings... perhaps with an underlying connection...

There may be a tutorial online somewhere that would tell you how to do this.  I, personally, don't know how else to help, other than suggest looking elsewhere.  This forum really is not the place for these types of questions.

Quickie nodded. "It was just a thought.  I mean, if Obsidian went after Blaine, Blaine worked for Giovanni..."

Probably a stupid question but were you allowed to take pictures?

I'll have pictures shortly.

It's not Newark that bothers me, it's that I'm going to be on a plane all day!

I envy you, Quickie. I really do.

Tomorrow, I spend all day flying home.  I envy those who get a chance to stand up, whereas I'll be folded up like a praying mantis in coach.

Tomorrow, I have to be up bright and early to spend all damn day on the plane.  Nonstop flight from San Francisco to goddamn Newark.  Newark!  This flight is going to be awful...

Diddy Kong Racing!  I have such fond memories of that game...

Long flights with no stops or long flights with many stops?

Got back from touring Rancho Obi-wan.  Holy [parasitic bomb], the awesome stuff Steve Sansweet has!  For being such an awesome guy, we dubbed him the first honorary Wookieepedian, presented him with a copy of his own article, and I gave him one of my sketch card originals.

Quickie looked between Sapph and Sakura, and then to Wily.  "I don't suppose..."  She trailed off and shook her head.  "Nah, that would be far too coincidental..." She looked to Sapph. "Was Obsidian involved with Team Rocket in any way, as in, did he have access to Giovanni's projects?"

Wow that's pretty lucky.

We found out that a quarter of our userbase are mobile users, and only a few of us actually have mobile devices.  Since for community and management purposes, it helps that the acting admins have access to mobile devices, then something needed to be done about our lack of such things.  The reason I never had bought one was due to price.  And my phone was simply not cutting it.

Lol.

This one I got so that I can do some product testing.  Also, our hosts were just shocked that Wookieepedia's top admins are working with old, crappy cellphones.

Cheaper than the ones I've seen.  I'll need to check Staples or Radio Shack before I leave tomorrow.  Otherwise, I'll wait until I get back to Gettysburg.

The best part about this iPad?  I didn't have to pay for it! 8D

Still getting used to this new iPad, but I'm loving it.  Though, I need to get a keyboard for it, soon, as I am an... aggressive typer.
