Recovery

Knowledge, Wisdom, Information, are our most precious resources. If we do not defend them as if they are our very lives, then we doom ourselves to failure and, in fact, have no lives at all.

On the recovery now. Still not 100%. I'm already tired and it's only 7:36PM (19:36). D:

Anyway, few things that I've been meaning to do.

First, for you writers out there, I recommend Zen in the Art of Writing by Ray Bradbury. Mr. Bradbury has always been an inspiration to me even since I picked up the Martian Chronicles in middle school. I'm only half-way through the book (which is pretty short; only 158 pages) and it's already broken one of the worst writer's blocks I've ever had. Great stuff. Pick it up.

Second, there are two artists out in the dA-verse who are in desperate need of cash and are doing commissions. Please visit both :icontysandri: and :iconrynnay:. Both have great styles and are good at reading into characters and bringing them out visually (which is especially fun for writers). So please, if you have some cash to spare, hop on over to those two for further details. :new: Better pimpage found here: [link] !:new:

For now, Joe out.

On the topic of the "proof of god" thread in the politics forum, I just wanted to state that I think it's funny that the OP can shamelessly flick the questionable existence of a formless and invisible entity that's indefinitely shaped the progress of mankind for the thousandth time, but you can't state the argument is so pointless and void that it doesn't belong in the forum without being panned by a mod D:

In shorter terms, DAAAAAAAMN! you got jumped by :iconstykera:!

Hey, what happened to that story of yours? I thought that now that I finally have some time I'll come see if you've got any more chapters but there's nothing here :(

Pidgin won't behave.
