... that is a pie cake (cake made of pies), instead of a cake pie (pie made of cake), but also acceptable.

I would eat that cake, I think.

More of a confused manner and an -I am unsure if to post in happy thread-: I saw my favorite neighborhood snowy owl perched on the piping to the left, outside my window at 9am. It was awake. From lacking knowledge on the matter, I thought owls were fully nocturnal and had sensitive eyes to light?
The happy is that I saw the owl.

AFAIK, owls dont have any real problem with light, so much as they instinctively use their superior eyesight in darkness to their advantage as predators. It's not that weird to find them awake during the day, and I regularly spot the screeching owls around here flying about, and screeching, in full daylight. The screeching...

Yeessss... that is better. I would call that a cake pie.

S'actually more like a half cake pie cake, but... close enough. I envision something more along the lines of a cake baked into a pie crust, instead of a pie that is half cake. But that is also good! Good enough. I would also eat that.

That's not exactly saying much because I haven't found too many baked goods that don't involve vegetables or coconut that I won't eat*, but... whatever.

_{*I couldn't afford, fiscally or in terms of health, to feed my baked goods addiction.}

End portals can't do such things. This mod can, though (although I think it isn't released yet).

The second video states pretty directly in the summary that it's vanilla minecraft. Sooo... either the uploader's lying, or he/she/it knows tricksies.

Oh yeah, they used command blocks. Totally forgot about those.

[The Darkling Wolf]

Yeah, command blocks can be used for all kinds of neat stuff.

So, much of my state's official infrastructure is specifically designed for IE 8 and 9. The payroll site for my hospital will block you from logging in without using one of those versions of that browser, even. The statewide financial aid application throws up a warning. So, here I am, uninstalling IE version by version until I finish rolling back to 9. It's only two, requiring a restart in between, but it's still stupid.

So tonight we got freezing rain and a drop to 28F in Austin, TX. There is now approximately 1 accident reported every 2 minutes. 1 accident reported every minute. http://www.ci.austin.tx.us/qact/default.cfm

Holy crap. I expect to wake up tomorrow and look out over the smoking ruins of a crumpled city.

Edit: There has now been a 20 car pileup reported.

So for some odd reason Texans don't know how to drive on ice?

From Weather Underground:

King Salmon, AK set a record high temperature of 50 for Jan 23.

50F/10C in Alaska! Today! It was 8F/-13.3C here today, far south of Alaska. What. The. Fuck.

Isn't the weather such a wonderful thing?

Unbeknownst to us laymen, the planet is flipping over or some shit. We're all going to die. The jackass pengiuns, jackasses as they be, will soon be having fun sunbathing in equatorial Antarctica.
