    Blarrr! I have slept four hours and I just came back from the weekly grocery spree. My re-render is still going on, so I think I'll hit the hay again and sleep some more!

    All Hallows Eve (October 31rst) is very important to us Pagans. Check Ivy's Art studio thread (Spooky Creepy...), you'll soon see what I mean.

    since it is an American thing, I assumed it had something to to with voodoo and Cajan stuff but really did not know much about it untill the commercial side of things started to kick in
    like Valentines day, my mum only learnt of that when I was born on Feb14


    It is not actually a American thing Wendy its originated in Europe by the Celtics.it was much different back when then it is today. because it had started in the dark ages and people where scare of their own shadows back then

    Though "We" Americans have Commercialized Halloween big time with Tick or treat and Halloween parties etc.
    I am Asatru a very old Nordic pagan faith as a rule we don't celebrate Halloween, but in the last 15 years or so i have become friends with a lot of people who are of the Wiccan Faith( some people call them a witch religion) in our Unitarian church(a church of all faiths and beliefs) and they practice Halloween as "Sam-hain" the day of the dead . its a time when the Vail of life between this world and the other is the thinnest and this is why the Wiccans celebrated. to be closer to loved ones that had passed over. its actually a very beautiful celebration in their faith.

    But personally i like Halloween because it gives me a excuse to make ore creepy and scary pictures. :)
    bring on the Zombies :)

    To bore everyone and carry on from that Some of those stupid facts that mostly bore people THe Celtic origins of "Halloween"

    Samhain (sow-een or sow'-inn)
    Traditional date: October 31 to November 1
    Midpoint between Autumn Equinox and Winter Solstice
    The largest and most important festival
    The beginning of the dark half of the year, exact opposite day of Beltrane
    First Celtic fire festival
    Gaelic "samhraidhreadh" means "summer's end"
    Irish "Samhain" means the month of November
    Celtic New Year's Eve
    Third and final harvest festival
    The day when day (light) does not exist
    Preparation to survive the winter, confront the possibility of death was paramount
    The "Fleadh nan Mairbh" Feast of the Dead to honour the past clan souls
    Celebrates the last harvest, the cycle of life and spirits passed
    Ceremonies involve fire, lights, setting out food and gifts for passing spirits
    All fires are extinquished and relit from the sacred bonfire
    Stories are told around the fires as there is not much to do outside
    The veil between the world (Shield of Skathach) is thin, allowing spirits to cross over
    Evolved to Halloween and All Saints Day

    Lol
    When I first posted the image that eventually became my avatar, someone suggested I should be giving people a good handbagging. I couldn't get a handbag to work, Someon then kindly animated the club for me. Not sure if I could ask her to do another.

    BTW, I really only use the club to chase hamsters around

    Or is your ISP blocking DAZ?

    There's also a possibility that whatever is going on is a DNS error, and it will be resolved whenever the DNS error goes away.

    I'm doing a stupid Render thing in Ivy's Spooky Creepy Art Studio thread. The really stupid part is it takes all I have to do two renders.
    Four more renders and that should do it for this little mini side project. I hope I can drag up enough energy to do the next two.

    Nice render :) May I ask why you removed the SAPD vehicle texture? You know the default black and white paint and its vehicle text? Assuming you're not selling the render, I don't see why copyright would disallow it. You're getting very good with your conversions!!

    that is just how it loaded
    I would have to relook at the game and search through the texture maps to get it right, was unsure which ones to use, there are over 900

    Yeah I can totally understand, It is a huge game, hundreds of cars and then variations! The map alone was massive!!

    I cannot breath through my nose. I have this stupid superstition that I need to breath and my stupid nose is making it hard to breath. My coughing has not improved, though I have been coughing a lot. i have been taking a lot of cough drops though.


    Today was my first day at the new Wendy's. The stupid register software is different than the one in Virginia so it confused me. I have to use it in order to become familiar with it so I was told to use the dining room register.

    Breathing is highly overrated. Once you've reanimated once, you won't have to worry about such things.

    Now, isn't this one big family reunion? You and your aunt.

    In any case, missy, you'll probably need this, it's the anti-virus:

    Better take the Virus after, then the Anti-virus again... You may become superhuman like Alice... Or you may become a Tyrant monster with tenticle hands.

    My aunt and I? what did I say about an aunt? or was that for someone else?


    It is almost time to go to my mum's
