Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
Usually, on Saturday nights, I'm off playing some variation of game online, nine times out of ten, on a friend's XBox 360. But not tonight.
How interesting, you say. I'd agree. There's nothing better than kicking back, relaxing, and playing your own games, without sharing a screen with someone else, without the pressure of winning or losing, two-man killing sprees, and deathmatches for hours on end.
So I'm going to go play Team Fortress 2. A satisfying experience and a good break from the usual.

Rainy (Fri?)days
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
It's Friday, hooray. I'm pretty sure I did poorly on a Chemistry exam, but made up for it in AP Lit, by being one of three people to get a 7/9 on an essay we wrote yesterday. The top score was 8, with one person achieving it.
But it's after school that I look forward to. My best friend and I usually hang out for a few hours, sometimes going for as many as six or eight hours. We have a blast.
But, you see, me being the PC gamer I am, I have very few friends to get achievements in, say Team Fortress 2. Sure, my old clanmates are on my friends list, but they've moved on from Team Fortress, and not to TF2.
Too bad. Sounds like it'll be a long time coming for Medic Milestone 3.
And here's Tropical Storm Hannah. Time for TF2.

Repeat, Ad Infinitium.
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
So, aside from the tumults of vacations here and there, I've been pretty consistent with this blog, actually. I can't say I'm perfect, but I'm pretty consistent about updates. Nightly means what it says, to I try to keep true to it.
A friend and I had a "srsly bsns" discussion today after school. We have these, and they're pretty interesting, to say the least. We learn a lot about each other, really. He's also single now (see the post I created earlier about being a third wheel), and he's loving it. I think both parties involved were sick of the drama (at least, he was, anyway), and they both were on the rocks for a while.
Now I just have to figure out my situation, and I'll be all set.
In other news, news will be streaming in on a daily basis, unless something major happens. I'm here, and here to stay. Feel free, again, to comment, visit my profile (boring as it is), and e-mail me at Mister.Necktie@gmail.com . I'll be here until Blogger is no more, at the rate I'm going.
And I just started in July -- some of my counterparts have been here for months even years!

Thank you!
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
This is just a quick thank you to all fifteen of you who've visited my profile. I can't get a hit counter to work, so profile views are the only way I know this is being read. This officially means that either Google's finally picked me up, or this blog is not a failure. Either way, that's a good thing. I'm on my way to internet-celebrity-dom!
So, thanks!
Now, if you don't mind, leave a comment before you go. :-P

Missed Opportunities
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
Recently, a forum that I frequent has had a major staff change. I'm a pretty solid user there, and I've been vying for a position for months now. Unfortunately, I was passed over.
This is the fourth time it's happened, and it's really disappointing.
The upside? A new site // affiliate is launching, so I may be getting a position there, where one of the recently-departed staff members has told me the positions will be better. We'll see what happens.
My RP is also being overshadowed by some other RP that launched just earlier. Oh well. It's progressing, slowly.
This just in: Don LaFontaine, the voice from the movie trailers, has died. The cause was from pneumothorax, a lung collapse brought on by a clot earlier this week. The world has lost a great voice actor. He was 68.

Speed Enhancement
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
My computer can't capture video properly, or I don't know how to work the program's I'm using too well.
I'll work on it. School tomorrow. Day six of one hundred something. Here we go again.
In other news, I've launched a Team Fortress 2 forum role-play thread. We'll see how it goes, but it looks promising, as this is my first RP!

YouTube Account
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to I/O Nightly News.
I'm working on getting a YouTube account set up at the moment, so I can't say much right now and meet the deadline. More to come later.
