Apirature Science is trying to kill people in the name of cake and your only hope is to port out of the incinerator in time.  After that you go from the clean, white waled test rooms to the creepy, rusty, in some cases bloody walls and terrible to no lighting.  After the part where GLaDOS, the atifical intelligence that promises you the cake, says that if you don't turn around and go back to your cell, she will have to kill you, it was too much.  I hit save, x-box dashboard, console off and then played Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

Also this entry was written the day after the day mentioned, so details, again, are a bit skewed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yesterday we woke up, got the luggage out, ate, exc. and got on the bus, destination, Pelesh.  On the way I tried to pay attention to what the tour guide was saying but 1: it was yesterday and 2: my mind wandered a bit.  The first stop in Pelesh was a monastery with two churches, an old one and a new one.  The old one was smaller and not used as much and the new one was bigger, shineyer and more used.  After looking at the monastery for a little bit we went up the hill to one of the fanciest palaces you will ever see.  The inside was very impressive, intricate woodwork, detailed paintings and fancy sculptures.  The part of the castle that we saw was only the main living areas like the library, the study and the music room.  The most interesting room for me was the armory.  After finishing in Pelesh, we left for Brasov.  When we got there we rested for a bit and then went to see the main pedestrian area, came back to the hotel and met with the rest of the group for the midevil dinner.  The restaurant was close, so a short drive.  The food was good, the desert was my favorite, and the show was enjoyable.  After the festivity were over we drove back to the hotel and went to bed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-701728561812292355?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/701728561812292355/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/09/europe-day-nine.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/701728561812292355'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/701728561812292355'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/09/europe-day-nine.html' title='Europe, Day Nine'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-3781040248555358160</id><published>2010-08-24T10:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-24T12:29:18.731-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Europe, Day Eight</title><content type='html'>Today we had a tour of Bucharest, not Budapest, Romania.we started at the hotel and went to the revolution square, the front of the People's Palace (we'll come back to that later), nd then went to a small square in front of the military academy about the Romanian revolution against the Turks.  Then we drove down Union Blvd. and saw its many fountains and their motifs.  After a short drive we stopped at an open air house museum thing where houses were brought from all over the country and put in a village setting.  After we saw that we went to lunch and then back to the people's palace and went inside for a tour.  We saw a bit in there but the tour guide said that we only saw 5% of it.  Fun fact: the People's Palace is the second largest building in the world next to the Pentagon.  After the palace we went to the hotel to rest and then went to the folklore dinner.  Dinner was a mixed plate apatizer, a chicken dish and chocolate cake, and the show was traditional dancing and music played by Zamphere, the pan flute master and the band.  After dinner we went to the hotell and went to bed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-3781040248555358160?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/3781040248555358160/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-eight.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/3781040248555358160'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/3781040248555358160'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-eight.html' title='Europe, Day Eight'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-2544060171625904806</id><published>2010-08-20T10:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-20T10:43:21.005-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Europe, Day Seven</title><content type='html'>Because I didn't post yesterday I have to do two posts today, but it's not all that bad, because I am now posting from my new(ish) laptop.

Today was fairly interesting.  we started the day with a walking tour of the city.  We saw some roman ruins and a few churches, and the whole time we were followed by a stray dog.  after the tour we went to the hotel for a bathroom break and then got on the bus and headed to the Rila Monetary.  the monestary was very interesting, there was a museum, we saw a monk's cell and the church the monk's cell was bigger than you would think with a living area, a bedroom.  During freetime, we got lunch and some souvenirs and looked around.  After the field trip was over we got on the bus and headed for base camp.  when we got back we rested a bit then headed out to a flea, flee, however you spell it, market and then went to a church we visited earlier and - (static) We interrupt this program to bring you, Courage the Cowardly Dog Show.  Starring Coura- (static) Sorry, wrong tape. (static) We interrupt your regular broadcast for our special program, the Orthodox Church.  Before the service, the pastor and two alter boys come out with a scepter, a relic, and a cloak.  Then the bishop came in and took the scepter and put on the cloak and then they preceded down the isle.  The bishop then goes to his throne but stands in front of it (weird, I know).  Then the pastor goes behind the iconostasis and returns with one of those inscents shaky things, like the pope uses, and shakes it 3 times at different things.  At this point the choir is singing and then the pastor starts chanting a prayer and went like that until we left.  We now we return you to your regular programming. (static) After we left we wet to the hotel and got ready for the folklore dinner.  After dinner, which was quite interesting, we went to the hotel and went to bed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-5011976457147502090?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/5011976457147502090/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-five.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/5011976457147502090'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/5011976457147502090'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-five.html' title='Europe, Day Five'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-6252550394770048759</id><published>2010-08-16T09:28:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-16T09:52:26.170-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Europe, Day Four</title><content type='html'>Good evining and welcome to Sophia, Bulgaria.  There was a good bit of bus time today, so I read some more.  the breakfast at the hotel was okay, more choice than the breakfast in Budapest.  No important stops on the way other than stopping at gas stations for bathroom breaks, snacks and the one case of getting lunch ( Serbian goulash soup uses mustard in stead of paprika).  The time zones changed when we crossed the border from a 6 hour difference to a 7 hour difference.  We got to the hotel about 5:00, 17:00 their time.  While we waited on our bags we watched tv.  Later we went to the resturant in the hotel for dinner with the rest of the group.  Dinner was of a salad, fish (I liked the fish and i don't normally like fish), and a custard pie of some sort.After dinner we went up to the room got ready for bed and went to sleep.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-6252550394770048759?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/6252550394770048759/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-four.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/6252550394770048759'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/6252550394770048759'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-four.html' title='Europe, Day Four'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-3573350064873540842</id><published>2010-08-12T14:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-12T14:47:57.877-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Europe, Day Three</title><content type='html'>Sorry it took so long to post this one, I was busy.

We got to the hotel and checked in, dropped our bags off in the room and went to lunch at a restaurant that my dad and I had visited in our last trip to Europe, and the food was as good as ever, Granted it was on the other side of the Danube and down a few bridges.  After lunch we walked to the store across from our hotel to get some bread and cheese to have for dinner later.  after resting in the room and recovering from the flight, we headed down to the lobby and went to the orientation and meet everyone thing and after that, went up to the room and watched Hungarian tv.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-4243487011862575332?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/4243487011862575332/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-one.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/4243487011862575332'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/4243487011862575332'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2010/08/europe-day-one.html' title='Europe, Day one'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-1261173812163948964</id><published>2010-08-04T12:32:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-04T12:39:00.471-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Starting a recount</title><content type='html'>As you know, I was in Europe with my dad and Ponyta for the last two weeks, and now it's time to tell you about it.

I don't use my facebook that much but I still look at the flair and play with the hatchings sometimes.  But today I try to get on and Facebook says my account is disabled and that I might not be who I say I am.  So after I try to get on with variations of my password, I go ahead and click on the "forgot your password" thing.  I type the letters in the box and put my email in the other box, it puts a diferent set of letters in the big box and I do that two or three times and give up.  Here I am now, ranting and trying to not use more "colorful" language (trust me, I will if angry enough).  I guess I'll stop waisting your time with my problems.

I continue to look for more shinnies and you should too (if you have any pokemon game).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bye for now&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-8980910359986206008?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/8980910359986206008/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2009/06/rise-and-shiny.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/8980910359986206008'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/8980910359986206008'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2009/06/rise-and-shiny.html' title='Rise and shiny'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-7744589820577220833</id><published>2009-06-08T13:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-30T08:28:52.394-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='funkeys'/><title type='text'>I am Funkey</title><content type='html'>Funkey time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For starters, I have 43 Funkeys (44 if you count the hub), 39 trophies, 37 games in my game room and all the gem shards. I have been playing Funkeys for almost one year and where I have a gap in my collection I have all the other Funkeys that go to that zone. When I get a new Funkey, I don’t rest until I get the game in my game room and the trophy of that game. I am not obsessed with the Funkey trunk though I do enjoy looking at the stuff in there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Funkeying.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-7744589820577220833?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/7744589820577220833/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-am-funkey.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/7744589820577220833'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/7744589820577220833'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2009/06/i-am-funkey.html' title='I am Funkey'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5289936549281048662.post-2238672087350142269</id><published>2009-06-07T14:38:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-06-11T16:41:33.693-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Pokemon'/><title type='text'>How I Started</title><content type='html'>Pokemon games?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I guess it all started with Pokemon Gold for me. I chose Totodile as my starter (at the beginning of every pokemon game, you can chose from three different Pokemon). It took me, oh, maybe one or two months to beat the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I got Pokemon Emerald and started with Treecko but my battery died on me before I could save so then I started with Mudkip. Beat that game in maybe three weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pokemon Diamond was next (that’s odd, gold, emerald, diamond. What’s next pearl?). I started with Turtwig this time and beat the game three weeks again. Pokemon Pearl after that (yes, Pearl) and started with Piplup. I am not entirely sure how much time it took me to beat this one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pokemon Ranger was next (Ranger is different from the other games). I can beat this game within 24 hours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness was next and started with Eevee. I beat this game in four or five weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I got Pokemon Ranger Shadows of Almia and beat it in two days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That does it for this post.

I am not the kind of Funkey player that will go to the ends of the earth to find normal, rare, and very rare of every single Funkey (if anyone finds that offensive, I am sorry), even though I do hope to get one of each Funkey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of my other quests is to become a Pokemon Master and Top Ranger (Pokemon Ranger reference) and still find time to try to become a good Bakugan player. So you can expect to see more about these things in later posts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TTFN&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5289936549281048662-3559201732424543943?l=sprocketpocket.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/feeds/3559201732424543943/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2009/06/take-plunge.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/3559201732424543943'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5289936549281048662/posts/default/3559201732424543943'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sprocketpocket.blogspot.com/2009/06/take-plunge.html' title='Take the plunge'/><author><name>The Dude</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
