Portal: Prelude Official Trailer on Vimeo (via Vimeo)

Nobody told me about this, probably because of the power issues in town. I’m a bit light headed now, and I think I need to sit down.

Turtle Test: This is a test of my 2D OpenGL homework assignment. The turtle moves forward, turns left or right, and has a pen either up or down as he moves. The smile is done interactively moving the turtle like an etch-a-sketch. The triangle is automatic and the turtle moves to each dot to poop a point. The third turtle just continually moves around the square. Sources: turtle.py

Deton8: I figured out about 3 minutes after making a second serving of this stuff that it has 160mg of caffeine per serving. This stuff ROCKS! (and I can’t sit still)
