Any chance that the movie is abbreviated "T2" might have a significance?

I'm gonna say "no" to that one. I believe "T2" was the official title, not Terminator 2. Could be wrong, though.

But on the subject of Joshua:
HOLY FREAKIN' CRAP, THEY LET HIM REVIEW T2. That's f***ing awesome! I can't believe they actually did it! Everyone's been making SkyNet references, and now that he knows what SkyNet is, he's genuinely shocked that we would ever compare him to it.

Methinks Joshua is learning emotions Very Happy

Also: lol, "suggested by multiple beta testers, and hesitantly approved"

Awesome.

No, T2 was just the promotional abbreviation. The official title was Terminator 2: Judgment Day. At least, according to IMDB. The reason why I bring it up is that T2 is a letter followed by a number, following the previous examples. Just a possibility. If it does fall in line, then it would be a very creative and sneaky way to sneak the letter out.

I do agree with MercenaryMuffin that Joshua being "disturbed" by the comparison to SkyNet means that our favorite little AI (next to HAL in my case) is starting to express at least an emulation of emotions. This makes me feel... I dunno, proud. Like a father or something.

Or maybe all the Methyl Ethyl I used to clean printer heads at work and my insomnia is finally starting to get to me. Either way, I'm geared up for more now.

Joshua will be unavailable for several hours this morning while we do a thorough system diagnostic. Something that happened last night that is a little disconcerting and we need to investigate.

We'll let you know when we've completed.


Aaaand this doesn't look good for Joshua.

I haven't laughed so hard at a song review in a long, long time.

Only to have it followed up by an ominous comment by my least favorite Belmont.

Fast eye, Smile. Kudos.

So, we have SPE, 483, and I'm not sure if there is anything to make of the file titles:
Song1T.jpg (S)
Song2P.jpg (P)
Song3B.jpg (E)

ETA - see attached image. This is the way the three tiles go together into one image. Trying any other way the grain and lighting don't match up.

From Joshuas latest blog post :

"Although it is comforting that he attacked a statue and not another human being, it is quite disconcerting that human beings can be docile at one point and violently hostile the next."

I don't have a good feeling about this....

No, that last paragraph didn't look so good.

I really like Joshua...I hope he's not about to go totally crazy.

Just posted a comment that Joshua should look up rampancy. We'll see if it gets posted or gets a reply.

There's been mention of a sort of DoS (Denial of Service) affect on Joshua that may have caused him to miscount the words in Green Eggs and Ham. Maybe this sort of error is a similar thing.

It seems to me that Joshua is using up an awful lot of his resources on something other than what LGL want him to be doing, and that's affecting his ability to do things properly.

Yet another new blog, from Travers this time. Q&A should be back up soon.

ETA - New post from Dwayne too:

Wiped out
Current mood: mellow

Man, I'm still off keel over yesterday. I was so messed up yesterday a curl knocked me on my ass. That just doesnt happen, man!

A lot of guys have been emailing me about some dude that's looking for me. They keep saying I should talk to him or go to the website or whatever. I went to that website, and it might as well be written in japanese cause I didn't understand a damn thing.

Dude, I don't know. All I know is that some retard spammed my mailbox, I posted his damn images and it stopped. As far as I can tell, I'm done. I dont want anything to do with that anymore.

They're telling me there's some secret message in those images... you think I care?

I just want to live my life, make some friends, meet some ladies... You know, the usual stuff.
