Aww that sucks. Are you just recovering now and you'll be able to eventually, or is it a permanent thing (not being able to run)

Mustn't let the photo-story thread die!

I found this after killing the ancient blood dragon T'thurgal. I was expecting treasure. Turns out that's not what dragons actually hoard.

Not really. This is the Paris Catacombs. The ones la resistance didn't use. I wonder why... Anyway. It's about 2 miles of this on either side of the catacomb. They go back about 8 feet in both directions. Just skulls and femurs.

When I finally got out there was a security guard to check our bags. At first I didn't understand and asked him what I could've taken down there and he pointed to a small pile of three or four human skulls on the table and said "Those are just today's."

We got into the catacombs within an hour of them opening.
All hail the great deku tree!

Oh, so that's what I've been dreaming about.

That's really fraking awesome. Was there a pattern as to how the skulls and femurs were arranged? The French can (and will) design the shit out of anything...except, maybe, a workable defense system.

Yeah. There were crosses of skulls, boardering designs, quite a lot of "skull and crossbones" designs. I suppose because they had a lot of skulls and femurs, and that's what you do when you have one skull and two femurs to work with.

And they had thousands upon thousands.

Yeah...so I came home yesterday, and my roommate told me about th adventure that he had during the day when he locked himself out of the house. He broke in through the window to the laundry room/bathroom in the basement. He fell off of the foot and a half wide window ledge, and landed on my toilet.


This is my toilet now:

I need some new goddamn roommates.

"Oh yes," said the other mother. "I put her in there myself. And when I found her trying to crawl out, I put her back."

The real question is why do you have poo smeared on your wall?

Brad: Is it wrong that I'm jealous that you have awesome adventures in foreign countries and a cleft in your chin?

Dana: I think you need to talk to your roommate about proper toilet procedures.

Not really. Awesome adventures are fun! I want more myself. As for the chin-envy (hehe. Chin-chin envy), who can say?

Blackdragontaz: I have many pictures from scary places. I do a haunted house every halloween with my girlfriend. I'm still waiting on the video from this year. It took us a month to construct this time. About 80 feet of tunnel.

But: photos of the catacombs: incoming.

Image
Like I said. When you have skulls and femurs, what else are you going to make?

Image
This is looking up just after the underground chapel. The ceiling is about 35 feet.

Image
And this is the underground chapel itself. Yeah. Those are bones.

Heh... Dana, just be glad you don't have my roommate when I lived up in PG. Or maybe you do? Does he hunt?

If so, does he not bother to field dress his kills because "its too cold" then bring back the kill anyway, not salvage what was possible outside because again "too cold" then proceed to "field dress" it in the kitchen with his chainsaw without bothering to drain the blood?

Splattery.

Me at work today. I am on a coop work term at Triumf, Canada's nation nuclear and particle physics lab Most of the time I sit at a desk and write Perl and Java but today I got to tour some of the more interesting parts of the lab. I had to suit up in the disposable suit to go in the ISAC target hall. In the target hall a beam of high energy photons are collided with a target to produce short lived radioactive isotopes which are studied in the rest of the ISAC lab. Most of the equipment in the target hall allows the highly radioactive targets to be move and stored remotely. Making the isotopes leaves the area around the targets somewhat radioactive so one must protect them selves and prevent the radioactive contamination from spreading. The suit, booties and gloves do not block that much radiation - they are more to prevent you from taking the radioactive contamination with you when you leave. When you leave you have to check if you are contaminated with a Geiger counter. I did not take any photos in the target hall since I did not want to contaminate my camera. The only reason we were able to go in was because the lab is in the midst of its annual repair shutdown.

I need to shave.

I've heard rumours of a chandelier made of bones lurking somewhere within the catacombs, although I didn't find it while I was there. Apparently they used to let people explore the whole place freely, but they kept losing people down there, so now they gate off most of the passages so it's really, really difficult to lose your course.

Good lord, can you imagine being stuck down there overnight?

A lot of the gates could be opened and closed. I was *really* tempted to just close the gates behind me as I was walking through.

The people behind me incessently going "WOooOoOooOoooOoooOoOOoOOo" was annoying on both situational and intellectual levels.
