dmxratedJust completed all current episodes of the original Angry Birds. With that out of the way, I'll probably finally get started with The Japanese Stage-Step Course, and replay the 2011 episodes of Angry Birds Seasons when I complete the first unit.
I do wish that Rovio left the first game's theme song intact, instead of remixing it. After all, that song is the root of all its remixes for each episode of Seasons and each subsequent game itself. I have read, though, that Space had also gotten a new remix for its theme.

Finished moving last year's leftover firewood towards the house a few days ago, and have since been working on removing a dead tree near Long Island Avenue for Dad. We've also gotten our first new load of firewood for this year, so I'm gonna have to stack that all up when I'm done with the tree.

Recently, Fanfiction.net has disabled highlighting text on any stories hosted there. It is obvious that this is to prevent plagiarism, but I also read on the Fanfiction Blog that, in a future update, the users themselves will have control over whether or not anyone can highlight stuff on their fanfiction. I just hope that when that does happen, people will be able to highlight stuff by default. Not just for myself, or even for Chelle, but for the userbase as a whole. There are other uses for copy-and-pasting, or even just highlighting, besides stealing other people's work, but most people aren't immediately gonna think of those who would like to copy bits of their work for ethical purposes (even less so at the request of those who wish to spork what they've written).
