Blog of People Who Have Walked Into My Office, Looking Like Trouble.
Every day this blog will post about one person who walked into my office, looking like a big tall glass of trouble. Not that I wouldn't help, of course, but sometimes you just get that gut instinct. This time, that instinct was a 270 pound pug hitting me in the stomach, telling me "Hey kid, this here's trouble."
- This tall leggy dame. You know the kind. Pouty lips and soft, caring eyes. Both lied, but what a lie.
- Little squirrely guy. Big, thick glasses that didn't help him see that his socks were mismatched. But I didn't need glasses to see that trouble was following him around as surely as a dog follows the hot dog man.
- Tall sucker. Not from around here. His jacket barely hit his waist, and I barely avoided hitting him square in the jaw, simply for having the audacity to come into my office, trailing so much g-d d--n trouble.
- Cripes. Of all the days, why today? I had sworn to myself that if one more robot walked through the door, I'd become a nun and move down to San Miguel. Look like I need to go shopping for a habit.

Daily Blog That Turns Out to Be A Dream
The latest album by Arcade Fire therefore isn't there best. It has plenty of things going for it, but...WOAH!
That's so weird. I dreamt that I cared about Arcade Fire.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz
Guys, if you don't treat each other with respect in the comments section, I'm going to turn off the comments. I don't have time to moderate all of these...
what?
I was dreaming about...something. Comments? What the hell?

Daily Blog of Describing Magic Tricks
Well, this doesn't seem like much of a trick. I guess he's just showing us that his sleeves roll up? Not much of a trick--HOLY SHIT WHERE'D THOSE FLOWERS COME FROM? Wow! They just appeared!
HOCUSPOCUSRAZZLEDAZZLE
So someone from the audience is up on stage. She's getting into a box. It's a normal sized box, the kind you would put a whole lot of baseball bats into. So she's getting in. Hmmm. Her legs are sticking out the edge of the box. Maybe that's the trick? That he cut holes in the box? He's spinning the box around now, which is a nice trick. Clearly the box has a sturdy set of track wheels on the bottom, which can be hard to attach to a box like that...wait. He's got a saw. Is he going to saw the wheels off of the box, so it's immobile?
No...he's sawing the box in half! That fool! Did he forget that he just put a woman inside there? Someone better tell him that box isn't empty! Why can't he see that there's a woman in that box! HER LEGS ARE STICKING OUT OF THE BOTTOM, AND HER HEAD OUT OF THE TOP! Say something, woman!
Oh god...oh god oh god oh god. She's been cut clean in half. Oh god oh god...there's less blood than I'd expect...but I Can't watch. This is a dark day for magic, people...
Wait. He put her back together. Well, this seems to be lucky. She's okay! Oh thank god.
HOCUSPOCUSRAZZLEDAZZLE
Okay, this guy has shuffled the deck. Not magic, but impressive. Now someone has to pull out a card. Maybe there is a string attached to the card?
No strings, apparently. We have to memorize the card. Well, it's the 5 of clubs. Nothing magical about that. That's a card that could appear in any nonmagical deck.
Now he's put the card back in the deck. Apparently, he's given up on the trick. He's just shuffling the deck up. Excuse me, I have been directed to look into my pocket. Well, someone left a 5 of clubs in my pocket. That is quite the coincidence, isn't it?
I wonder when this trick will start?

Video Game Tip Blog
Super Android
On level 3, walk into the wall on the right for 5 minutes. You will then pass through the wall into a room that has the Double Pistol, which you normally can't find until level 6.
Zombie Castle Invasion
Shoot the castle with your zombie gun. If you hit the castle in the right portcullis, the castle will turn purple.
Clean The House!
Use the mop on the broom. This will supercharge the broom, so it can clean 1.5 times as fast.
Click on a Series of Boxes
If you click near enough to the box, but not actually on the box, the program will interpret your click as if you had actually clicked on the box.

Blog of Celebrating Milestones for This Blog
Hey guys, this is the very first post for the Blog of Celebrating Milestones for This Blog! I'm sure it may not seem like much now, but years from now everyone will look back on this post and think, "Hey, that's where it all started."
Post number 1!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TGIF. TGIF. That's right, Thank God It's Friday. This is the very first, and so far ONLY, post on a Friday. Never before, and not for at least another 6 days, has this blog been updated on a Friday.
Ladies and gentleman, this blog has reached a true milestone today. And all I can say is "TGIF."

6 is the magic number, oh yes it is, it's the magic number.
-School House Rock
That's right, this is post number 6. Many blogs don't make it to number 6. Some blogs only make it to 2, or 3, or 4 posts and then pack up. Not this blog. This blog, the Blog of Celebrating Milestones for This Blog, has made it well past 4, and past even 5 (what a milestone that was!) and is now at a total of SIX POSTS!
Why is six the magic number? It's the product of the first three positive integers: 1, 2, and 3. The next magic number post won't be until post 24. This post therefore has a special, hidden mathematical significance.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This post is not special. There is no milestone related to this post. This is the very first post to have nothing important associated with it! A truly meta-milestone for the Blog of Celebrating Milestones for This Blog.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the last post for the Blog of Celebrating Milestones for This Blog. When future civilizations unearth our data servers, restart the internet, and decode this blog, they will mark this day as one of great change. Their calendars will read: 856 A.B.o.C.M.f.T.B.S.D. That's 856 years After Blog of Celebrating Milestones for This Blog Shut Down.
