After one of the most hectic summers on record, I have finally gotten settled down (for the next month or so, at least) and uploaded a few of the highlight images from the past several months. I won't link them all, but here's a few of my favorites: Fireworks Rabbit Morning Light Cheesecake!

Well, when you apply about five hundred Newtons of force in the form of a shotgun blast, you can tell the difference because a baby gull flies much farther.

Ineffable Wingbolt Tirien Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Yeah, it "looks like", doesnt mean it is. Some of the most toxic mushrooms look like the edible ones.

Ineffable Wingbolt Tirien Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 That reminds me of when I was in school. Every year, and I do mean every , some random kid that I did not know would tell me that im going to grow up to be a serial killer. So you probably shouldnt be worried about Dikiyoba, as Dikiyoba probably hasnt been told repeatedly that that is how Dikiyoba will grow up.
