Well, I am back and what an experience this was! I have begun to go through the 3400 pictures and 2hrs of video from the trip. So far, I've made 2 short videos covering my trip and I plan on making at least 3-4 more. Here is everything I have so far. Enjoy!

Thank God they didn't set this on Tatooine...

Superman. Specifically, the first movie. He did it because Lois died. Too easy.

This is a little video I just made over the last day. While looking at several time lapse photography videos using the Canon 5D, I looked to see if anyone had done time lapse within CoH. Not finding any, I decided to make my own. Enjoy.

I just thought it was kinda wierd and I had never noticed it in all my years of playing.

See if you can spot what I'm talking about in this clip. Just a little proof of concept video I made and while watching the finished product, I was kinda confused and had to watch it a second time to confirm.

This next one isn't as obvious but is yet another test video.

I just found out that due to a strange series of events, I have the opportunity to go to Germany and Italy for 12 days for basically free.

The main focus of the tour is around the Passion Play that is being held in Oberammergau. I will fly in to Munich by way of London and Chicago and we will stay for 8 days in Munchen and the surrounding Bavarian countryside. Then, we fly to Milan, Italy and bus out to Strase, Italy for an additional 5 days.

I leave in a month from Tuesday and I just submitted my expedited passport application this morning. Should come back in time but just in case, i've got the trip insurance in case it doesn't.

It's been hard to think and function in the last two days since I found out I was able to go. This is going to be a milestone in my life and has been something I've wanted to do for many years. Being able to go back to the land that my Grandfather grew up in will be a very special event.

So, if anyone has things that I should not pass up in the Munchen area, please let me know. I'll be sure to post up everything that happened once I get back at the end of June.

Dee, you'd better sit down. I have some grim news to share.

I've got some bad news about your cookie jar. The details are sketchy but let's just say that gummi bears, jimmy and a 5lb tub of mayonaise were involved.....it was not very pretty at all to say the least. I've seen some bad things in my day but this would have made Hannibal Lecter cry lick a newborn.

We've sent it down to be sand blasted and sterilized but I don't think it will ever be the same anymore and if I were you I wouldn't plan on using it for anything even remotely related to cookies or storage ever again.

I give it a shot. PM sent

Congrats!! I, too, cannot wait to see your documentary.

NOOOOOOO i need those badges but i will be glued to my 360 all night because FM3 came out today...

I felt a certain calming geekness wash over me when I finally was able to watch what I had been hearing first-hand accounts of all day Saturday.

Looks truely epic. if anything else, I can't wait to start filming in the new environment. Trying to cook up some ideas now seeing as I have 9+ months to wait still.

Sorry I couldn't make this.

Looks like I picked the wrong day to stop taking amphetamines.

And thus, Rule 34 has yet more concrete proof of its validity.

I think I may be down for this. Count me as a 'possible'

Heya Mind! What ever happened with the documentory?

I completely forgot about my quote in your sig.

I lol'd.

Again.

After a 4-month LOA, I return to Pinnacle's alcohol stained bosom. i didn't really get a chance to mention I was leaving due to the circumstances but I am just happy to be back.

Got some catching up to do, missed 2 issues and I can't wait to get back in the swing of things.

Anyway, glad to be back. I just didn't want anyone thinking I had gone away to hide in a helium balloon and was left adrift over the rockies..

I was too busy playing a game that doesn't accuse me of being a dirty cheater....c'mon, I just showered.

WOW!

This is what I was saying should have happened a long time ago. Similar to the idea behind Fable. Let us switch sides but have to do an uber hard TF to cross the line. I guess they are throwing in the Praetorian as well....

I know better than to get excited after the cluster-F that I14 turned out to be but I will look forward to this.

I'm just going to start entering all of my text in binary...actually I did that for the bio of an enemy group that was part of this 'hive mind'. The arc got reported for website advertisment.

I14 = biggest waste of time ever.

I was disappointed about Sentry because I am making a complete enemy group called the Gatekeepers. I have Lookout, Sentinel, Key Keeper, Ward and Protector. I was hoping for another ranged minion class that could be called Sentry.

I guess it's just another limitation they've built into MA that will hopefully be fixed but has to be worked around until then.

I would like to add 'Sentry' to the list of names to be removed from the ban list.
