Word Gets Around

Gentle Reader,

I find this amusing.

Pictured below is a site that has referred multiple people to my blog in the less than 48 hours since I released my ROM hack of Final Fantasy IV.


Wow!

Here's what the page says, as per Google Translate:

Fauntleroy did and posted a good mod hack "Playable Golbez Edition" for the original game "Final Fantasy IV" on 16-bit game console Super Nintendo. This hack allows you to connect to the game character Golbez Cecil and the team together to destroy the Giant of Bab-il. In addition, the game adds a lot of new items of equipment, as well as many other very interesting innovations. Additional information about the hackers and the ability to download it - on the blog romhakera.

Double wow!  How neat!

Ever Yours,
Fauntleroy

Love

The Ex-Husband

I haven't mentioned you in months
and I won't again after this
but the house has never felt full
since your underwear was folded on the bed.
Nothing has been there since you.
I wonder if you remember
how it made you feel when I came home
your expectant face like an open door
and the words that filled us
like fire and water.

Words to Live By

 
Truer words were seldom spoken.

There is no destiny, no fate, and no ultimate meaning beyond that which you create for yourself.  So... go create something.
