I think you should redecorate the animal head room anyway, and mount the heads of your enemys on the walls.


That room has more heads then seen in the pic. These are some others I have.

When you buy a house in the game it is completely empty.

When you go into decorate mode a bunch of translucent boxes appear on the walls and floor. You then put items into the boxes called "hooks".

You can also move the items around like one would with real furniture. One of the problems is they do not provide enough hooks for the ardent decorator. So sometimes stuff has to be moved through walls or floors. It gets very complicated at times.

Getting the furniture items can be complicated too.

This particular set up was very difficult to pull off:

I still think Ezra is destined to study law, but maybe he can take up law as a kind of hobby after he makes his first million in game design.

I appreciate the vote of confidence. However using what was designed I'm sure is a lot easier than actually doing the designing. But who knows maybe this is the first step.

Game design is a big area right now. Here's a whole list of top online programs, some may be free:

The guy who introduced me to this game is into development. He started playing avidly when he was 5. I only started playing this single game about four years ago. There is a discussion forum for it and I often do not understand what the hardcore gamers are talking about. Even though they are talking about a game I play daily.

A friend of mine in grad school (an English major) taught himself how to write the old text adventure games, which are still great, and he won some kind of prize at the time as I recall.

Do you know Zork, one of the originals? There are online versions of it:

(Try starting with "open mailbox" and "read leaflet")

I just found out something very interesting.
Children of identical twins are genetically siblings, not cousins.
My mom and aunt are identical twins.
My cousin and and I are the same age and were raised together.
I have always thought of him as being like a sibling.
Now I find out we really are siblings.
And all this time I thought I was an only child lol.

"Cousins whose parents are identical twins share 25 percent of their DNA, instead of the usual 12.5 percent. While full-siblings share 50 percent of their DNA, half-siblings share 25 percent. That’s why, though children of identical twins are legally cousins, they are genetically the equivalent of half-siblings."

I guess this means we can't get married.

I have been having a tough time lately. Like more autistic. Harder to deal with the world around me. Geting overloaded easier. It will pass. Probably the change in weather/season. That always messes me up for a while.

I had a good time with my cousin earlier. We went to this seedy buffet and just had a good time joking about the food and things in general.

I can't wait until we can go out drinking. Local pub. No drunk driving.
