Ideas And Updates Part One

Posted by Nathaniel | Posted in Business, Make Money Online | Posted on 26-05-2008

I’ll tell you a bit what this post is about, because it extends farther than that title can carry it. I have many ideas in my mind, I will relay them to you, and also give you advice. I just keep reading these blogs that need some changes.

Let’s start with ideas.

I will put some of these ideas on a separate page, because they are similar to goals. I will be starting a few new websites I am hoping. Once I have the money situation set up where I will be able to handle it and invest my money into domains and hosting then the new websites will start.

Recipe/cooking website – I have already started thinking on this one, not that hard to pull together. I will be targeting the cooking niche, adding some of my own recipes as posts. Yum yum!

Other design websites – Besides interior design, I specialize in many other types of design too. One of the main ones though will be on web design like Shauryadeep.com. By that time, I hope I will be able to create my own theme.

I may be going down the photshop route soon. I long and difficult trail I hear, through jungle areas that are hard to learn to adapt to. There are a few things I want to use photoshop for. One of them, I want to be able to create different backgrounds, behind a window, or anywhere, this would be used mostly in my design, as in the photo shoot I am coming out with soon. I will announce the coming of the first RSS only post, which will introduce the photo shoot. When Green Flamingo Designs goes up, it’ll be in the portfolio section.

I am also thinking about devoting a website to StarWars, another favorite of mine. This will probably go up  the soonest after Green Flamingo Designs because there are star wars things going on. Yoda has also asked to participate regularly, and may be one of the admins behind it meaning I would not have to do all the work. This will be nice. He will probably write some long essays on what actually happened, the movies didn’t alter much, but the movies did emphasize the events.

I think that is all for now, there will be three parts on this series (at least I think so), this one the ideas, next the updates, and then the advice. See you soon.

Again, Talk Like Yoda Day

Posted by Nathaniel | Posted in Uncategorized | Posted on 22-05-2008

Part of this post is guest posted by the wonderful jedi master Yoda. Yes, it may have been a bit hard for him to learn to type on the different keyboards we have now that before were so high tech and even on a simple speeder! Yoda is very pleased to guest post at green-flamingo.com, and he would have liked to do a podcast for you but his microphone system that is like more than 10,000 years old crumbled into dust a few days ago, and that was a big disappointment for him, and he has not been able to find another one of the same model. So I now hand you over to the Jedi master Yoda, friend and ally of the force, master of the force.

Grasp a hint from the title did you, hmmmm? Happy I am to guest post on green-flamingo.com I am. A podcast I was going to do, but my set fell apart. Have one Obi-Wan may, but on a mission of investigation he is. Break into his condo I could, but do that I would rather not.

Surprised I am alive, hmmmm? Answer some questions I will, yes. As seen in Return of the Jedi, die I do, and partly that is true. But become one with the force I did, as Obi-Wan, and Qui-Gonn, and Master Windu, and materialize we can, though do that we did not for a while, as to please the audience, hmmm. Alive all the jedi are, but sith too. Terrible that is, but accept the truth we must. Investigating an Imperial Star Destroyer, Obi-Wan  is, while Luke still trains  on these lands. A new apprentice Qui-Gonn has, by the name of Gabriella.  And apprentice of Anakin, Ahsoka, exists as well, hmmmm. Darth Vader, Anakin still is, sadly. Stopped in time it may seem we be, but time matters not, age matters not, distance matters not. Understand that you must, to learn my lesson. Go I must soon, to the planet of Kashyyyk, with Chewbacca, and Tarful and others I will see there. Accept us as the living you must, and trained in the force some of you will be.

Guest post again, I hope to soon, or maybe start a website I will. Participate in Talk Like Me Day I hope you did, for please me it does that I am honored in this way. Go I must.

OK. Our little green friend does have to go to Kashyyyk now, with Chewbacca, and he will see other Wookies, who were not all killed by the clones. I’ll stop writing in italics now, but know it’s me.

So, I should tell you what has been going on in my life, some good and some bad.

Yesterday, we went to a baseball game. For school. It was good. Not my point. Yesterday, after dinner, I tripped over a pillow I had stupidly placed where I was running, and sprain my ankle I did. Bad that was, and now it is very difficult to walk. I am very glad blogging doesn’t involve your feet. Also, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull came out today, and I hope you enjoyed it if you saw it. Other than that, no big updates. I just hope you all enjoyed and participated in(this site indicates it is on the 21st, but the 22nd is fine to celebrate too. In the links over the past few days, it has said the 22nd, so again, either are fine.) Talk Like Yoda Day!

Star Wars The Force Unleashed

Posted by Nathaniel | Posted in Business, Reviews, Technology, Uncategorized | Posted on 13-04-2008

Well, star wars the force unleashed is video game. Who here is not in favour of video games? Or star wars? When I first heard or actually saw about this video game, I wasn’t very interested. But it has come more and more into my liking, and now I want it. 1.) I saw a video of it, not a documentary, but someone playing it, though it hasn’t been released. I was sad at how the main character held his lightsaber behind his back. 2.)But something changed my mind. On spike tv, they advertised how they would later, after A New Hope, talk about the new video game StarWars the Force Unleashed. Well, of course I did not see that, but the next day (Saturday) I went on to spike.com to give a link there for my post about the star wars movies playing. Something caught my eye there, one of the featured things was something on this new videogame. 3.) I watched a video talking about the new game, and learned much. This is what changed my mind.

You play the game as Darth Vader’s secret apprentice, whose name was not revealed. You also get to play as Darth Vader himself in the beginning. At first (when I saw the first youtube vid of the person playing it) I thought it was stupid to play as the darkside, one of the reasons I didn’t like it. But I got over that and think it is interesting to play as a sith.

The video (be sure to watch the other four about the same game, they will automatically go into the next so no worry about trying to switch)(unless you want to) says that you get to learn more about the character of Darth Vader, see who he really is. It is set in between episode 3 (revenge of the sith) and episode 4 (a new hope). This will be interesting to see how that works out.

It talked about something called duel mode, where you were not just the sith. In duel mode you were the jedi, Anakin, Luke, Mace Windu, Yoda, Obi Wan, and so on. That sounded really interesting. Also in the game, I don’t know what part, you were other characters such as Princess Leia.

One of my favourite features of the game, there are multiple endings. It talked about how there some choices for you to make in the game, and everyone’s outcome would not be the same. It even hinted that the choices had something to do with being a jedi instead of a sith. Also the game is a little different for each gaming platform, and thjat brings me on to my next half of the post.

I cannot go without talking about making money, and it is true for this post. I want that video game. And I want it for a Wii platform. I do not currently have a Wii, but it would be good for many reasons. I am getting a little sidetracked from my post about Star Wars the Force Unleashed, so I will talk about the Wii later. I am planning to buy one, that is all. I am going to set a goal to make at least 500-600 dollars, but preferably more. With that 500 dollars I will buy a Wii, all the needed accessories, and a few games. (I have some in mind). I will tell more about the Wii and my goal tomorrow.

The Star Wars Saga

Posted by Nathaniel | Posted in Business, Technology | Posted on 12-04-2008

As most of you probably know, Spike is playing the star wars movies. It started last weekend, though I didn’t watch much of it then, I was still exited. If you hgave read this blog before you might know I am a total star wars addict, and I hate when people say something about it that’s not true. I want to kill people who misunderstand star wars, well not the people who know they don’t understand star wars and are OK with asking others, but I want to kill the people who think they know so much about star wars but really don’t. For example, say they are talking about the seven forms of lightsaber combat, (one of my posts that mysteriously disappeared), and they say Obi Wan uses Makashi, I will freak! Anyway, the StarWars movies are playing, tonight is the fifth, The Empire Strikes Back, and tomorrow is the sixth, Return of the Jedi. So If you wan to see them, they start at 8:00 on SpikeTV, which for me is channel 64. Good luck!

Snowy Sickness

Posted by Nathaniel | Posted in Uncategorized | Posted on 12-02-2008

Yes. It’s true. Today I was sick. I had to stay home from school. I could not exactly walk. Blah blah blah. You do NOT want to know all the details. And guess what? It snowed today too. I can tell you about that.

While I was feeling in such bad shape I didn’t notice much. I had a nap and that really helped strengthen me. I went downstairs and at some point my dad said, “There is an early dismissal today.” And I was thinking, early dismissal? Why. I found out it was because of snow. At that point I suddenly wished I was at school then, but I thought of myself suffering in certain ways and knew my choice was right. All the day it snowed, I swept, (the snow) and at 6:00 we ended up going to the library to return 2 of the 4 star wars movies that I watched in 2 weeks. At this point the snow seemed dangerous, and it was, but we managed through it.

I don’t know why I was telling about all this gibberish. I want to be useful but right now I’m being a piece of junk. (Please don’t agree with me no matter how much it’s true)
