< So, there are plans for a real post up here in the next little bit, from someone in Legion. Not sure who yet, but someone will post. However, in the meantime, I found this movie on the interwebs, and it pretty much made my day. Get out your popcorn, sit back and enjoy. >

I got nothing
^Lots going on, stress, etc. However, I don't feel like writing about it, so I'm putting this in instead:
^Have fun! It's slightly addicting, but actually quite short, so don't worry about taking up too much precious time.^

Dropping in
\/ It's been decided that it's time for me to show up. Been off doing... stuff before now so I haven't actually posted before. It's kind of interesting how that works, that one would be so caught up in the joy of flight that one forgets to come back down to mention it... Song birds have it easy that way, they just get to go on and on and EVERYone hears them! \/
\/ They're not near so impressive though, so I have that at least *Preen*. However that really isn't why I decided to come down here, honest. Reality is that Legion as a whole seems to be getting a bit... stressed? preocupied? coherent? What ever word you wish to use it really needs to be changed a bit. Not enough power going on here. Probably get along great with Tel'Kin... got to love that guy. Gets stuff done.\/
\/ Legion's getting mated, interesting little reality that is. Should be a fun new flight at least. One group even likes trees *Smile* it's some form of height at least. Rune and Data is far too grounded... in their thinking at least. No fun what so ever *Ruffle feathers*.\/
\/ Time for some changes in Legion, shake life up a little. Go for a couple dives, work out how people work together. Sky's know that most of those land dwellers haven't met me. Should be fun *Smile*.\/
\/Until next we meet,
Kestrel\/

One Hundred!
< Edit: I have started a "Twitter" to track Legion's progress to reduce the need for constant updates here. The Twitter can be found here. >
<Somehow, despite having been a regular poster on the previous blog (yes, that is a link, no, you don't want to go to it), this is the first time I'm posting here under my own name (as opposed to as part of Legion).
<So what's so important that I've decided to break the silence? Well, as you may know, Legion is getting hitched. Specifically, certain personae within Legion are getting hitched to other personae within Legion. Go figure. Anyway, in order to have the wedding, it is necessary to be in top physical condition, which is where I come in: I've been designated the personal trainer. If you're wondering why top physical condition is necessary for a wedding, I'll leave speculation which parts of the ceremony require it for the comment section of this post. (FCS: Hint - at least one reason comes shortly after the reception... someone has to put all those chairs away.)
<I find it's important, when working out, to have a nicely defined goal in mind. Therefore, it was with some happiness that I ran across a website the other day that has a complete training course with the end goal of doing 100 push-ups in a row. Push-ups are relatively easy in that they require no special tools, develop pecs and core body strength, and are can be done at any hour of the night without waking up housemates... at least, they can if you're careful. So, Legion has taken the challenge - 100 push-ups about 6 weeks from now. You can click on the link in the right hand bar to check out the website, or the title of this post. I'll find a way to keep the world up to date on Legion's progress - it should be amusing, at the very least. >

shwing
For those of you who understand what that means, yes it's true.
For those of you who dont' ask someone who a) knows Legion and b) knows/is an engineer.
Yet another observation from,
Rune
For those of you who don't know; Legion is engaged. The blog dedicated to it should be arriving soon.

Non-Reproducable Experiments
@ So it turns out that 6 out of 8 young children will accept a cookie from a complete stranger. This suggests a deplorable lack of proper training of the next generation. I must say that I am quite appalled.
@ For those of you who, like Sabius, are getting upset with me at the above statement, yes, the experiment was conducted with a number of different types of cookie to ensure that it was not biased. This may have led to an increase in the number of children who accepted, since they were asked to take whichever type of cookie they like, but it is felt that the results are still valid.
@ For those of you who are getting even more upset, neither time nor money was wasted on getting many different kinds of cookie. This experiment was conducted in the grocery store, so the cookies were all readily available. And since the packages never left the store, no money was wasted. In fact, it is doubtful that even the leftover cookies were wasted, as the packages were returned to the proper shelves, and were most likely bought by the next customer who wished a half package of cookies. All around, very little was wasted.
@ In a related study, grocery store employees get unaccountably upset when you offer them a cookie. More research should be done into this phenomenon.
@ In other news, it has been determined that the streetlight (see previous posts) is not able to sense my approach, nor anyone else's. It simply cycles through a steady "on-off" sequence, with the "on" part being longer. A pedestrian walking beneath the light stands a much greater chance of encountering it when it is in an 'on' stage. The 'on' stage lasts approximately the amount of time it takes for a pedestrian to get from "almost beneath the light" to "just past the light", which means that it invariably goes out when the pedestrian feels that they were "right under the light". This causes the famous "creepy" feeling.@

** None of the above experiments (with the exception of the streetlight) has actually been preformed, at least to my knowledge. If you do know of someone doing this, please let me know. In other news, I am not going to Venezuela next week, so there won't be any interruption to this blog.

Watching Grass Grow in a High Voltage Environment
% Well, as promised in a previous post, I now have a microwave. So far it has managed to last more than 24 hours undamaged. This is assuming that my landlord/housemate has managed not to break it in the time that I've been away. Please continue to cheer on the little microwave as it endeavors to survive in such a perilous environment.
% In other news, the streetlight that I discussed in this post was acting strangely again on Thursday. This time, instead of going out as I walked under it, it turned on, then brightened. It may seem odd to record the goings-on of a light bulb, but I have precedent to back me up:
World's Longest Lasting Light Bulb (Centennial Light) <- Click on the picture to see the webcam
World's Longest Lasting Lab Experiment (Pitch Drop Experiment) <- Link near the bottom allows you to see it live, though you'll have to have Windows Media Player to view it
% At least I'm not linking to a webcam of my streetlight. Mostly because I do not happen to own a webcam, but also because I think people would object to me running a cord that long down the street. Oh, and someone might steal the webcam. That's also a good reason.
% Buried right here, near the bottom, is a notice that Theophilus has started another blog, which will likely be updated on a close to yearly basis. The link to it will be added here, once I know what that link is. %

EDIT: Theophilus' project can be found at http://creedproject.blogspot.com/.
