Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside

To get past the little Emerson, Lake and Palmer moment, this is to say I'm back to write a new front page post to www.paradisesgarage.com. Where else am I to start but to make my little holiday paragraph.

Well, there is honestly no kooky holiday today, but there are a few observances I must make you all aware of. tomorrow, the 26th of October is Frankenstein Friday. Honestly, I see no use in this holiday because Halloween is next Wednesday, so why should we have a Frankenstein Friday? I mean, if this were a holiday to pay respects to the achievements the Frankenstein has made to man kind is one thing, but I thought scaring kids and tormenting cities was setting back mankind a few years. It's not like were celebrating Hitlers birthday as we do when we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr's birthday, am I right? Of course I'm right. So lets disregard this day and pretend I never posted the last couple sentences. Saturday is Cranky Co-Workers day. This day makes no sense either. Who works on a Saturday??? Ok, I know I do. In fact, this may be why I'm cranky on my Saturdays? WHY AM I AT WORK???? Bah, now I'm so cranky  that I don't even want to observe Mother-In-Law day (28th), National Chocolates Day (28th), Separation of Church and State day (28th.....how is this a holiday?) or Internet Day (29th). No fun holidays coming up. Ohh well, this is why they invented the Orange Box, and speaking of the Orange Box, heres some new stuff regarding its contents.

The people over in Primotech released a news article including pictures and a video showing us what fun can occur when you port over the portal gun over to Half-Life 2/ep1/ep2/DM. From what has been said, its a totally new game play where you pretty much can use your new found abilities with the Portal guns and flat out manipulate the combine or the Half Life world in a whole new way. Escaping now seems less important as you are now more capable of doing things to combine then you have ever imagined (yes, even more fun then getting the kill with the crowbar.) The link is located here and is very easy to understand the directions. They do "hint" that its possible to port the gun over to CSS, DODS, TF2, etc, but dissuade you from doing so. Although, I do say porting this over to GMOD would be wonderful.

I would also like to add that yes, I'm back for now. Work and school became quiet busy. Ive missed a whole lot and is why this news post is so short. It will take me a while to catch up with whats going on but as soon as I do, mark my words, these front page updates will be a great read.

Until next time, may the force be with you
