04/29/2003 Archived Entry: "Cycling and the Art of Video Game Making"

The cycling season is upon us. The bike path today was littered with senior citizens and trophy wives, power-walking, cycling and jogging their way into better shape. Also children who've been walking for less than two weeks zig-zagged their way down the path as their neglectful parents trailed behind, not worrying about one of them getting taken out by a speeding cyclist (i.e. me). I guess when you have four children you must value them a lot less as individuals. The parents on the path gave off the impression that they could quite easily spare one or two.

I have big plans to participate in a 75 mile ride later on this summer. The benefits from it are going to help MS (I think). That should be pretty neat.

In other news, Lefty beat me to it by posting his 19 reasons "Star Wars Episode III" was a really stupid, pointless movie. Why do I keep missing the good ideas? First Paul beats me to the punch with his Great Powerpoint Demonstrations by Villains: Skeletor's Soliloquy and now this.

My last post was pretty much a dud comment-wise. This one doesn't look like it's fixing to be any better. It's tough to write about stuff happening when you sit at your computer all day. Paul and I made a video game, though. It's called Quest for the Crown. It's rather amazing.

Shouldn't trophey wives be in shape anyway? That comment reeked of condescenion. What do you have against women? Women who are just trying to make it in a society that prioritizes female beauty above all else? Stupid chauvinist pig.

Posted by Jen @ 04/29/2003 02:28 PM EST

I'm sorry. I think I've been working on this athletics story -- and interviewing too many actual men who condescend to women -- for far too long.

You are not a chauvinist pig, I take it back. How many days 'till this is over? :)

Posted by Jen @ 04/29/2003 02:29 PM EST

Damn it...when's the Quest of the Crown Official Hints Book going to come out? Like Linux RedCrown, i found your game free to play with, but completely impossible to make any progress against!

And what's up with people doing PowerPoint stuff lately? None of the 8 software programs on my five-year old computer are PowerPoint!

Posted by Lefty @ 04/29/2003 03:14 PM EST

Trophy wives aren't just molded! They need to keep at it to maintain those bodies for their rich husbands!

As for the Quest for the Crown Hint Book... I'm not going to give away the release date but I would check L&E tomorrow.

I think microsoft has some sort of crappy online powerpoint viewer that you can download for free. There's a link to it in Paul's Skeletor article description in the L&E archives page.

Jen, how many days until what is over?

Posted by Chefelf @ 04/29/2003 04:59 PM EST

Actually the bide ride is 150 miles. 75 miles on Saturday and 75 miles on Sunday. Math was never one of your strengths.

Posted by Jeff @ 04/29/2003 06:12 PM EST

Whoops. I forgot about that. I may have to sit that one out.

Posted by Chefelf @ 04/29/2003 06:35 PM EST

C'mon, what's 75 more miles? Aren't you on a bike 6 hours a day busting your ass?

Five more days to academic freedom. Bring it on, baby.

Posted by Jen @ 04/29/2003 08:27 PM EST

Yeah but I only travel about 10-12 miles in 6 hours. I'm gonna need to kick it up a notch.

Posted by Chefelf @ 04/29/2003 08:39 PM EST

I still have 32 days of high school. Thirty Two! Arrrrgh.

Granted, there's three days of senior trip, and maybe a couple of day trips, and nobody's going to school on prom day.

Posted by Laura @ 04/29/2003 09:03 PM EST

And don't forget "work from home Mondays." Which means, in essense, that you have four more days of school left. And you, Laura, should "cherish" them (big wink).

Posted by Jen @ 04/29/2003 09:22 PM EST

Jen thinks she's funny when she's shirking her responsibilities.

Posted by Chefelf @ 04/29/2003 09:59 PM EST

Wow, "thinks she's funny." Very cold ... very cold.

In my better moments, I like to think I AM funny when I'm shirking my responsibilites. :)

Posted by Jen @ 04/29/2003 11:13 PM EST

Jenny ALWAYS thinks she is funny. Just a side note, Nate is a bad person for not visiting Jens sister. Bad Nate, Bad!
And my final note, Hanging out with Bunny is so much fun (comment directed towards Nate and Lisa)

Posted by Crystaldrip the Hellish @ 04/29/2003 11:16 PM EST

Aw man! Now I'm gonna go broke hiring that Private Investigator to uncover the mystery that of Crystaldrip the Hellish's identity.

Posted by Chefelf @ 04/29/2003 11:18 PM EST

If you want to know Crystaldrip the Hellish's identity, you should really be talking to Pancakes R. Yummy. She has all the answers....

Posted by Ima Hoe @ 04/30/2003 01:10 AM EST

Ah ha! A clue!

Posted by Columbo @ 04/30/2003 08:30 AM EST

I love you Columbo!

My favorite one of your whacky adventures is the one with Dick Van Dyke as the famous photographer who has his wife kidnapped and killed.

Posted by Lefty @ 04/30/2003 09:29 AM EST

Thanks. It's good to know you're appreciated. But you must know that, Lefty. Your Two Skulls That Talk Comics receive critical acclaim and, dare I say, kudos.

Posted by Columbo @ 04/30/2003 11:16 AM EST

Columbo's got nothing on me.

Posted by Jessica Fletcher @ 04/30/2003 12:25 PM EST

Stop sticking your nose where it doesn't belong, Jessica. I would end you.

Posted by Columbo @ 04/30/2003 01:39 PM EST

"Murder She Wrote": 264 60-minute episodes over a 12-year run.

"Columbo": 76 tv movies and one spin off series from 1968 to the present.

No offense, Columbo, you are indeed a crime-solver extraordinaire, and no one could deny your rumpled charm. But I gots the edge.

Posted by Jessica Fletcher @ 04/30/2003 02:00 PM EST

Mommy, Daddy, don't fight! You're ruining my birthday party!

Oops.

However, I think another factor that should be considered: as I understand it, murders just spontaneously Happen around Jessica Fletcher, whereas Columbo's a legitimate homicide detective so he is called in to where murders occur; the fact that they always are committed by tallented and famous figures in the community notwithstanding, I think Columbo wins out on the realism factor.

Plus, has Jessica F. ever said, "oh, my wife won't believe dis! She's your biggest fan!" or "my nephew...he's a smart enough kid, what should he do to get where you are today?" I don't think so.

Posted by Lefty @ 04/30/2003 02:34 PM EST

Keep it up, Jessica, and I'll have a new show for you ...

Murder HE Wrote!

Posted by Columbo @ 04/30/2003 02:35 PM EST

Thanks for the support, Lefty. I really appreciate it. Thanks for all your help. I'll leave you alone now.

You know, there's just one thing I don't understand ...

Posted by Columbo @ 04/30/2003 02:37 PM EST

Don't dis Jessica! She will come to your area and who knows who will die then! It could be you! Of course, if you are her friend/relative you are probably safe.
