I've just finished season 2 of the Transformers. That is just a great season. Before all the strange stuff that happens just about everywhere but on Earth. There's alot of Cybertron and alot of other planets on Season 2 but there's also just as much earth stuff.
Looks like we are going to play DnD this weekend, Jimmy's high level Forgotten Realms Campaign, if all goes as it should. Jimmy and Kevin are also Cooking up a return for the taciturn Darwin Shadowshift.
Really I need to get in some quality Meridian time. My character still hasn't topped off 80 hp. Meanwhile even newbs in our guild are fighting in Brax and sporting better HP than me. I should be higher than I am but it's just that working HP and axe weilding is a boring thing to do cuz you are in the same spot non-stop until a PK logs on and forces you out. Anyways there's my mini post... Peace out!
Yep that's true... I am sick. It sucks. It's thanksgiving weekend and all I have done is feel bad and take it out on my wife. Even though she's the coolest and like bends over backwards to help me out. Sooo I'm feeling like a real ass. When she gets home I better tell her how cool she is. This sick thing is weird cuz like all morning I was cold. It's 70 degrees in here but I was wearing a hooded sweatshirt, wrapped myself up in a blanket and was still shivering. Then Lunch rolls around and my body corrects and suddenly I am roasting and sweating bullets. Amazingly though I have not had a fever at all. Just body aches, chills, sinus headaches, and a cough that won't let me sleep.
I really wanna hang out with my friends and I can't. Thoene even called today he was gonna come down and yet again I have to bail on him. So yeah I'm just really feeling like an ass today. Since this entry is just rapidly going down hill I'm gonna wrap it up with one positive thing. I finished the JimmyCon RPG. So that's a good thing. And I got to watch the Space Ghost Coast to Coast DVD :) So although it seems like the whole weekend has been worthless it hasn't been totally worthless.
So I haven't written in awhile and I don't have alot of time to write at this moment but I'm gonna give it my best 15 min shot. I just wanted to say that after scoping the last entry I have to say Forkstock was pretty awesome this year. Everyone's life has changed so much since the first Forkstock. No one used to sleep in the tents and this year we had 3 tents and they all had people sleeping in them those who didn't have a tent went home. So that was wierd but otherwise it was forkstock as usual. A little subdued as we weren't at Summit but it was genuinely a GOOD forkstock. Life has been ever changing lately as I got married this summer and now we just bought a new house. Not to mention I work at the elementary schools. So alot of new things are happening to me and around me. As much as I like to revel in the past I have to look ahead and stop dwelling in what WAS.
I was just reading Jimmy's web site and it inspired me to give my own website a little boost towards update. So this may be a minor attempt but it's at least something. I'd like to start updating regualarly but I'm not going to make promises I might not keep. But keep your eyes peeled cuz I suddenly have a bug up my ass and you know how I get when that happens. :)
Forkstock: The current state of things Uncensored
What am I gonna say? Is it perfect? No. Of course it's not; for the last 3 years people have said that pornfork is dead. But let me tell you something it started 5 years ago and it's still here. It's a matter of evolution and adaptation. It can't be the same as it was 5 years ago. With the exception of Kismet and Myself the rest of the group was a bunch of dorkey high school kids. (For my part I was a dorkey college student) If we were all the same now as they were then I think you'd find all of us unemployed and lonely. But the memories of those moments both good and bad alike are vivid enough for all of us that they still make us laugh when we talk about them. We all have our favorite forkstock or pornfork stories. Whether it was watching Steve blind-fight on the beach or just one of those all night DnD sessions where I had to work the next day and some how you bastards got me to stay up till like 3am. And ya know I still went to bed with a big smile on my face. (The next day is another story entirely). What does Forkstock hold for us next year? I don't know. Our youngest members are graduating high school this year. Logan View has likely seen the end of the Pornfork Era. Will it be at Summit Lake? Or the Surrogate E5? Who knows, but I'm dying to see it and I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Forkstock 5: My Thoughts
It wasn't filled with with the kind of activities that we usually create, we set a new record of getting there late, and we really really didn't use the tents this year. It was a different breed of forkstock, pornfork has grown up a little over the years. The only thing that has stayed the same is that we built a fire that typically is neglected and burns out. We got to see some old friends even if it was only for a few hours. We had no plans to gain members this year and we got two. Probably as good as any we have ever let join since we started the whole deal 5 years ago. It doesn't matter if it was good, it doesn't matter if it was bad what matters is that we all get together once a year even just to bulshit together till the sun comes up.
The Journal of Yosho
It has been the strangest journey I have ever undertaken of course nothing associated with Usagi has ever been ordinary even when we used to simply spy on the Daiymo of Voyo. Usagi found a way to spice things up perhaps that is why he has been resurrected more than any other Ninja in the history of the clan. Is it his brashness or merely poor luck hmmm perhaps both perhaps neither. But whatever his particular idiom he has been removed from the group again. This time at the excitement of finding a magic coin he merely disappeared before our eyes after proclaiming a single word, “Pornfork” What does it mean? Anything? Perhaps it is not for me to know. Whatever the case we had to decide what next to do. Now it was down to the two of us. Nobyuki and I of course he wanted to return immediately to the clan he felt this mission a total failure, but to any of that know him I of course know better. He intends to return to the clan but only to “peep” at the female ninjas. I’ll never understand this ritual of his. After all they always catch him doing it. So we parted ways he to return to the master and the clan and I to continue the quest. For surely it might eventually lead me to Usagi. So I first paid my respects to Master Osaka who helped me to exit the strange city of Porniture, but not before I swore an oath on the clan not to speak of this city or this place. As I think back I wonder if Nobyuki ever did get home. Osaka said something that unnerved me before I left. He claimed that those who did not swear secrecy to the location of Porniture would be plagued with the curse to forget. And not the type of forgetfulness that amnesia brings rather worse. It is said that he those poor fools who do not swear the oath of secrecy will forget absolutely everything with the setting of the sun each day. Such a loss of memory is said to be total and merciless. Those suffering from it are curse to rise with the mind of an infant each day and return to that state of mind each evening with the last light of day. Learning to walk and speak all over again each day only to have this erased at the end of the day. These poor souls will not survive. I feel that Usagi will be okay. He seemed so totally apathetic of his findings in Porniture that is likely that he would rather not talk about Porniture ever again.
The Journal Of Prostiate
I've been in the woods now for several months and finally I have spotted it! The Great Red Fox! It was weird how it happened. I Had been following the trail but I never really seemed to catch up with it until one morning I woke up to find him sitting on my chest. HOLY SHIT!!!! It was the most unusual experience of my life the Great Red Fox is only about 8-10 inches tall! And his eyes! They were the spookiest part! He just sort of stared into my eyes for several minutes. I would have freaked out but I was petrified. He didn't open his mouth but I heard him plain as day he said "Go Home, you have found me at last but you are needed at home take this and go at once" I thought to myself "Take what?" and as I was finishing my thought I realized he was gone. I checked my bag to reveal a strange amulet that had a fox embossed into the surface it had the aura of magic I decided this must be checked before I put it on but I packed immediately to head back to Pornville what has happened that would cause the Great Red fox to reveal himself to me like that?
An Excerpt to a letter addressed to Pornville:
I felt the breath return to my lungs and the fire return to my head and I realized "I'm Alive!" I leaped to my feet ready to attack that treacherous Druid. For all I had helped him in the past for him to turn on me now seemed incredulous to me. It took me a moment to realize that; hmm I seem to no longer be on the boat. I search the room and realized familiar faces surrounded me. Oddly I felt a keen sense of awareness that I can honestly say I haven't felt since the day I stepped off of the ship to Endra. That's when I realized that it had happened! I had my memories back! The curse that had been placed on me by that foul wizard Jeerum had finally been lifted. I remember clearly now that I had blindly sought to find you and had started my search on Endra. Curiously enough I found myself entangled in an adventure that I would never have expected. A village far to the south had fallen under a strange curse, which caused them to remain in a perpetual state of winter. I resolved that until I could come across some information as to your whereabouts I just as well make myself useful. And I sought to liberate these people from the burden of this curse. I was a fool to think I could handle this task alone. But I came across some interesting information that I felt would be vital to your cause. I found that the one responsible for this abomination was using power from an ancient porn-weapon to cause this strange state. That's right a porn weapon not unlike our ancestor's great Pornfork! So I felt compelled to try. But alas I was defeated. Soundly I might add to add insult to injury Jeerum demanded that I remain in the castle and do his bidding and that I could never leave. I called his bluff I would have rather died than remained a slave to that vile one. That's when it happened that's when the fog infected me I could not remember the simplest of things my past my present or my goals for the future. The events of the last 2 years have been unusual. I found myself on the exact same quest with an individual named Bob. I traveled with an unusual Druid named Kamadake and even ran into you Wanop the very one I had searched for in the first place. I don't know what the future holds for us in the future but I am writing this letter to let you know that yes I am alive and well. I was found washed ashore on Porn where I was taken in and cured of my lycanthropy as well as resurrected. I am quite eager to once again meet with you and help re-establish the Legion of Pornfork. I hope this letter finds you in good health.
Your Brother,
Bootan B. Pornald
A.k.a. Boo-Boo Kitty
Well Bob in a sense died (Magically turned to stone) and I thought it might be nice to write a little something about that here a eulogy of sorts. Everyone will agree that Bob was not the brightest of characters or the most exciting characters but he was played well. Bob didn't have a lot of global ambition he had no intention of traversing the world in search of gold or riches he was content to explore his own island and fix the problems that he saw. He met some great characters along the way and actually had more impact than one might think. After all it was because of Bob that Boo Boo Kitty came to arrive on another continent thus throwing him into the world of Porn and causing his great exploits. It was Bob that caused Usagi to find the Porn Ocarina which gave him a new quest. It was Bob that unlocked a coin bringing our heros one step closer to the new world. And finally Bob was the only one even remotely close to freeing Terak the foul mouthed Goblin (even though they never met). I guess it is really too soon to say that Bob's story is truly finished after all he is only a statue because of his magnificent eyewear and we can only hope that he will return to the fray. But even if he never does he will be missed.
The sun broke the clouds. Signaling what could be the end, the end of this blasted storm. My muscles ache for some action. Those damned goblins have had me trapped in this hollowed out tree for nearly two days now. Thank Porn I had the foresight to pack rations. It was supposed to be easy money, simple escort mission. I was only supposed to escort this merchant and his wagon to Freedale, and then I was supposed to get paid. I should have known that it was too good to be true. No sooner were we but a couple miles outside of Emery than they struck hordes of them! Like they had something to prove. All of them with puny short swords, on any given day I could have cleaved any one of those midget atrocities into two halves, but even I know not to mess with a whole army of them. Truly a tribute to my abilities that I am even alive! The goblins a camped but 500 feet from me I know they are still there because their scent is unbearable. Now that the storm has finally passed maybe they will leave and I can escape. After my exploits in Syria being cut down by goblins would surely be a poor way to end my career. I finally had a chance to lay my eyes on this Wanop that everyone has been talking about. I can hardly see how this boy of an elf could possibly have caused the trouble that is told of him. I also helped a theif to escape with a good chunk of the syrian treasury. Good enough! Anyone that steals from that bully of a kingdom shall have my aide. Too many good men have lost their lives in that damned gladiatiors pit, and to what end?! To prove what point?! Nonsense if you ask me, the whole lot of it! A waste of sturdy healthy men and women. Damn I lost my cloak in my haste! Oh well it would have been too much trouble. It probably would have given away my hiding place anyways. I should have revealed myself to Wanop in Syria then perhaps I would not be in this mess. But he was not alone. And he is not ready for me yet. I’m sure there will be other chances. Perhaps when he is ready for the truth.
Hmmm Pornfork seems to be in a little peril lately I don't know what's goin on here but I know I'm staying out of it. My main comment about the K-Blue/Waraugh Issue is: Guys let's not make this a production. K Nuff Said.
So Anyways I thought I would throw in a little something I thought about the other day. At forkstock Bob (aka Kevin) took us on a quick jaunt down memory lane. He brought up the first forkstock when Jake's Porn-name was Rodrigo(sp?) Basically it made me think about how much things have really changed in the last 3 years of Pornfork. I remember the first time I played D&D (as madrox in Kevin's Campaign) and billy and louie (the then fat wanop king of an island of natives)got drunk and couldn't pay attention. Then I was dm for awhile (still am sometimes)tried to do the whole stay up late thing that I always did during high school. Then I figured out that it doesn't work so good after you graduate. I suppose alot of you are starting to figure that out by now. This year we actually had a big ceremony and made potential members really earn it by going through a rush week type thing, it was really something. But you know what I have realized? I have realized that no matter what, no matter when, pornfork has always been fun. It was then and really it still is. Maybe I'm just gettin old and senile (22 year old pornfork member still making webpages) but hell it's still fun, and I'll keep with it till it stops bein fun. Let's keep it fun guys/gals!
Okay it is unreasonable for me to be doing this. Creating a web page this late when I have to be up at 6am tomarrow. But hey, I have some things I want to say. I try to be objective and state only the facts around here, but now I have to let some of my opinions (or lack there of) be known.
I have to say that it is a bit strange that forkstock what is supposed to be the funnest event of the entire legion (the observed aniversary of pornfork) lately has become a controversy not to everyone but to some. All of a sudden I notice a strained tension in the air and I must say I'm not thrilled that it's there.
What is Wrong with everyone?!! Forkstock is not about ranks and titles! It is not about who is dating who and it is certainly not about I'm not going to join if they join or I'm out if they don't get in.
This all sounds ridiculous to me! Does it to anyone else? I have to admit I have my rank and I am happy with the legion as is. I'm not concerned with upping the ranks with people I don't know. Honestly I could care less if anyone gets promoted or initiated. Hell it would sure take the pressure off if no one got initiated.
I can't exactly say I'm going to be willing to vote for anyone I don't know. One evening is not a good enough period for me to make a judgement of character to satisfy myself. I am also not going to vote anyone in that can quickly and readily bash other members.
And as far as rank goes it really doesn't amount to much of anything. At the end of the day we are all just members so skippy bud I love ya but GET OVER IT!
Right about now I am kinda disappointed. I had highly anticipated this years forkstock to be great, everyone seems to have high spirits its seems we will have a good turn out, why can't we just forget this petty nonsense and have a good time?
I've got some trivia for ya!
My one and only concern is that forkstock go off without a hitch and that it is fun. you know fun! Like the night that I broke into a fit of laughing so hard that it made me cry. All because Mitch and Lou were strewing saltine crackers around (to protect us from the witches we assumed got billy and Jake) while we were bored off our asses waiting for Kevin, Josh, and Jake to show up! and They didn't until the next morning because they got drunk in my parents barn. And you know what the next day there was a post floating around summit lake, A hole full of spam and everyone had a story to tell no one had hard feelings no one was mad at anyone now that was a forkstock!
In closing I want to note for one last time forkstock is not about girlfriends, ex-girlfriends, boyfriends, ranks, initiations, promotions, or even throwing posts in the lake! It's about being up with your friends way too late without enough food without enough sleep (Kevin you are the master) Just a Heee Haw and and a bunch of pals under a nebraska sky and hell if it rains on us we really wouldn't care if it did (we'd just go back to my house and play D&D anyways!) Does anyone hear me? I hope so cuz I'm really tired and I wanna go to bed I'll see ya all on forkstock for criest sake have fun and lighten up people!
