On your birthday!

Memories

by Annabelle

Within my book of memories,
Are special thoughts of you.
And all the many nice things
You often said and did -

As I turn the pages,
And recall each single thought,
I realize the happiness
That knowing you has brought.

There are memories of the times we've shared
Both bright and sunny days.
There are memories of your kindness
And your friendly thoughtful ways.

There are memories of all those notes,
we would write back and forth,
When we would just get together,
And talk of this or that.

And when I recall these memories
As I go along life's way,
I find they grow more precious still
With every passing day.

I miss you, Kabali...

Quake 4 - Some Rail Gun Moments...

The Rail Gun has been my favorite gun in Quake II as well as Quake 4. Hence a compilation of some fond Rail Gun moments so far...(yes, the rail gun is real - here is a rail gun video test shot from U.S Navy)

enjoy it full screen ;-)

Quake 4 - Stroggification

Well, here's a gory video of stroggification of the fearless marine Matthew Kane in Quake 4... also includes a brief meeting with the two "Stream Protectors" and the new Makron!

Quake 4 - Killing Stroggified Boss Voss!

this is Matthew Kane, from the Stroggos' Data Storage Terminal... here's some videos of my first "boss battle" I had yesterday - against my older boss, Lieutenant Voss... with the nostalgic Quake II background music...

Though I have also ended up Stroggified, I don't understand why Voss was made into such a powerful, monstrous Strogg and me into a cheap "Tactical Transfer" - I don't get it... those #@$*@!&$ :-(

This battle would have been so much easier if I was made into such a powerful Strogg!

Also, the videos are in the actual speed in which we fight against the Stroggs here... otherwise, we would be toast by now ;-)

the one below is where I kill Voss, without the extra health.

(Do, double click on the video to enjoy it full screen - also please be aware that there is some time gaps since I was using fraps trial version to record this and it does not record more than 30 secs continuously :-( hence had to fight Voss as well as restart video capture in between!)

another time with some variation in weapon use...
