As you may notice, the homepage looks a bit of a mess at the moment as we are currently updating the site and our WordPress theme along with it!

Sorry if the messy look is too much for you, just give us time!

Good morning, fellow citizens of the People’s Republic of LightWithinia.

Last week, the people revolted and installed a new government. One that would be fair, and divide the workload and spread the prosperity among the people.  Che Envil is the new leader of this country, replacing the old Envil who has fled the country for Cheesville.  There are rumours that he is hiding at a certain Dyl’s house in Manitoba. Commander Dyl plans to investigate this Dyl after he is done reading Karl Marx.  Commander DM will distribute the cookies each day at 1 PM. Do not be late, people who come late will not recieve their share of the people’s cookies.  As always, all staff members must contribute to the country’s work quota.  So, comrades! Remember to write at least 2 articles per month, and tweet at least 6 times a week. Otherwise, the Secret Kinetic Yams will come and get you.

We hereby also ban all mention of Rockband, Twilight and Green Day. This is what is corrupting the minds of our youth these days.  Now, get to work and have fun! (the last part was also a command).

So as a filler post covering every blogger, what will this be like? Well, if this submission representing DM and her awesomeness is any clue, then it will be like this:

To represent Stu, here is a movie review:

I recently went to the Toy Story double feature 3D event. Two words: FRAKKING AWESOME! I am not much of a fan of this 3D fad that is sweeping movies, but I do love the Toy Story movies. Fact: These are the only Disney Animated squeals to be released in theaters and still kick ass. This remastering was great. The intermission with Toy Story trivia and shorts were a great addition. I honestly felt like a kid again. If you missed you’re chance to catch this event, well, sucks to be you.

Continuing our parade through LW staffers, we reach this pic which convinced Helena to never want to visit America:

Filling in for Daniel, I will talk some sports:

So we have the Winer Olympics coming up somewhere in the middle of nowhere soon. The Winter Olympics don’t get the respect that the summer games do for obvious reasons: no Dream Team, no Michael Phelps, no heart warming story about the first male-male pair figure skating team, no plucky, but resourceful US hockey team that proves miracles can happen. None of that. So our sports for this week is a tribute to the winter games summed in one word: curl.

Moving to Katherine, we reach a speed bump. Stu is our movie/music/entertainment reviewer. I have gaming and general geekdom covered. Kieran seems to have our computing fields covered. (Click here for the tribute to Kieran) DM is our undisputed queen of NaNo. So we have all of her, unfounded and unproven, claims to geakdom covered. But we don’t have one thing she seems to do more than anything else covered: social networking. So here is a link to a conversation I predict may one day be in her future: (Honestly, I hope this doesn’t happen to anyone.)

Time for another video! This time, it is a submission representing Light:

This next section is for the ever productive Medli:

So that is it for the entire blogging staff. I hope you enjoyed i…. What? One more? I thought I covered everyone. Whoever is last mustn’t be that popular or handsome or that undeniably awesome that I just had to forget him. Well, here is something I would throw together instead:

So, as an awesome geek among geeks, I naturally love D&D. I need a more uniform set of dice, but I do have enough dice to play. I’ve only played 4th Edition, since that was the edition that our party was playing. D&D is very fun. To those that are more gamers, like Dyl, think of it like a Final Fantasy game, only you have more of a personal connection to the characters because you are the main character! To those of you who have boners for Haruhi, like DM, think of it as you are Haruhi because your actions shape the world. To those of you with eggs in your soul, the egg of your heart, if you will, think of it as the ultimate Chara change because you get to be who you want to be! (Judging by my pet characters, I either want to be a big purple person like Dr Manhattan, except with pants, or I want to be a drunken, female assassin.) D&D is whatever you put into it. I encourage everyone to play at least once in their life. On that note, I am wanting to put on a game for LW. If you are interested in joining, send me a PM on our forums and I’ll get back to you. If not but you are interested in learning more, click here and enjoy!

As I would do, if I were the last blogger mentioned, I would end with a video so why not?

Since coding counts as word count according to the rules and YouTube embeds take up a lot of space with coding, here is an episode of everyone’s favorite show, Everyone Loves Hypnotoad!

Well, I’m not quite there yet but pictures are worth a thousand words so here you go!

Rei is so pretty! Everyone can agree on that. You just have to love her.

Since I know I’ll get yelled at for not filling up the whole space, here is another video:

That is all for now. Keep [word meaning copulating] that chicken!

What with making the allstar baseball team, two-a-day practices, provincials, nationals, football and social time, I just won’t have the ability to keep up with posting. My baseball team holds two practices every single day in the summer up until provincials and nationals (hopefully), i’m currently in the summer workout process for my bantam football team, and as said above my socializing will keep me out and about for most of the summer.

Most of you already have my MSN, and please add my facebook (Daniel Andrews – my network is Turkey, don’t ask why) and if you have a PS3, add x_daniel77 if you want to try and catch me online playing a quick game of Rock Band before or after activities.

It is on this note that I would like to make my prediction for the MLB. Los Angeles Dodgers, ’09 World Series Champion. You heard it here first.

So to all of you at LW, have a fun summer, i’ll be back posting in September. Remember, add me on facebook to keep in touch!
