And the mystery deepens… the person who invited me to master elf sent me another cryptic email about knowing I’d be interested, and all I have to do is find out who it is. Did I mention I was horrible at these sort of games? Ah well. Something to look forward to as finals get over. You had to put this up now, didn’t you. When I can’t really persue it until Tues? sigh. I will find you! It’s just a game of Who Loves Ya, Baby?

Standard

Yes, so I installed GreyMatter!

Ha!

I only have to have weird permissions, I suppose. So http://etoiline.com is now up! Sort of. There’s not much there. Give me time. I swear there will be cool stuff there someday…. and eventually I will be blogging on Greymatter instead of blogger. We’ll see, I suppose!

Question: Gonedaft (Gandalf), why do you dress in all Grey?

Answer:

David P. Zimmerman

White was taken, for now.

Quaff-Down Gin

“[cough cough!] Too many smoke rings.”

Quaff-Down Gin

“Elbereth thinks I look sexy in it.”

Drevekenin

Well, umm… You’re short!

Quagg-Down Gin

“Why do YOU keep putting on that damned Ring, pipsqueak?”

Trevor Raggatt

It’s smart, it’s practical and it works as evening and day-wear

Trevor Raggatt

And you’d prefer “Gonedaft the Polkadot”?

Trevor Raggatt

An unfortunate accident with a magic spell and a bottle of bleach

Trevor Raggatt

I’m so old the didn’t have colour in my day

Trevor Raggatt

It brings out my eyes

James Barker

Cause it matches my beard DUH!

Finandulin

Have YOU tried matching a fuschia hat with a mauve robe?

Trilliena

Hmm, maybe it’s time I did some washing…

EnchanteR

White gets dirty to easily

ScottE Bemeup

That hack, Merlin, messed up my dye spell.

Tom Hyde

Because ‘Gonedaft the Lavender’ doesn’t sound right.

Joona Palaste

Washing powder doesn’t come cheap in the Middle Earth.

Patman

Because “Gandaft the Green” makes me sound like a leperchaun.

Rona

You try wearing white and keeping up with the latest in firework research!

Tony

So I don’t have to wash off road dust.

Bobby

For the same reason you ask these questions, lack of imagination

Arthur St. James

It was white when I put it on at the dawn of the First Elfen Age!”

trex

Grey Power

trex

Black was taken.

trex

Alliteration gone wild

The Grey Wizzard

I’m a mighty Wizard from the order of the Maia! I don’t bother with such trifles as my appeareanes! Besides, green doesn’t suit me.

The Grey Wizzard

I’m a dirt magnet.

littlestar

Never mix whites with colours, my friend…

Shlamko

Magic and washing machines doesn’t mix!

stellan flinkfeldt

Colors wear out after a couple of thousand years without laundry

littlestar

Don’t get TOO used to it…I’ll be wearing white in the next film!

littlestar

It’s all the rage.

littlestar

Why? Does it make my butt look big?

Leon Mane

Your not exactly A Ray of sunshine yourself!

The Grey Wizzard

The Grey Pilgrim can’t stay long enough to find a laundry.

Danielle

Grey is last year’s brown, which was the year before’s black

Anoriel

I have had not any opportunity to reach the cleaning river under Moria Bridge yet. Wait some chapters!

The Grey Wizzard

Would you trust a “Gonedaft the Hot Pink”?

Petzi

This was white! Do you know a good laundress?

Petzi

It makes me look a hundred years younger!

So somehow, our design team won an honorable mention at the poster presentation today… we get $50 among the three of us. Course, we all spent about $24 on the project so we’ll each get about $8 profit… but hey, we pulled something out of our ass! and we didn’t even have a great looking poster. It’s all about the interactivity, though. We had a set of transparencies showing the external -> internal structure of our box and everyone seemed to like that. So, you could say I’m pretty happy 🙂

so things are going pretty well, let’s just hope this good streak extends into the finals…

From Lammy, cause she loves to make me laugh… I know you’ve probably seen these before, but thought I’d share anyway…

If you lay them right the first time, you can walk all over them for years!

From U2 Lyrics Archive:
Where the Streets Have no Name

————————————————————————

I want to run

I want to hide

I want to tear down the walls

That hold me inside

I want to reach out

And touch the flame

Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face

I see the dust cloud disappear

Without a trace

I want to take shelter from the poison rain

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We’re still building

Then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there

I go there with you

It’s all I can do

The city’s aflood

And our love turns to rust

We’re beaten and blown by the wind

Trampled in dust

I’ll show you a place

High on a desert plain

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name

We’re still building

Then burning down love

Burning down love

And when I go there

I go there with you

It’s all I can do

Our love turns to rust

We’re beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind

Oh, and I see love

See our love turn to rust

We’re beaten and blown by the wind

Blown by the wind

Oh, when I go there

I go there with you

It’s all I can do

Because this song rocks.

What kith are you? Find out here.

The eshu wander the entire world, following the path of their own fate. They get to wherever they’re going at the best moment, and the trip is always exciting. They live for adventure and the new; the moment for them is always now, and cowardice is shameful. Eshu have an extremely personal sense of honour. They follow their paths with style and flair, sampling each new culture and quickly blending in with the locals. The wanderings of the eshu are legendary; probably something they’ve seen to themselves, as the eshu are consummate tellers of tales. Indeed, they learn through their tales, gaining experience both through the telling and the achieving of feats of legend. They often see themselves as the central characters in some grand play, be they hero or villain they play their parts to the hilt, no matter the cost or how reckless the action. They’d rather go out in a blaze of glory that will fuel stories for centuries to come than live in ignominy. Besides, as changelings, they’ll simply be reborn.

erm, I don’t really know why I took this, being that I don’t even know what it’s for, but oh well… you now know very much about me….
