IRN BRU, Famous People and Pigeons.

(Somewhere in the north of England, in a dark room, something moves. It blinks its eyes at the dim light coming from a gap in the curtains. It hisses at the sunlight, oh god its painful, and buries itself back to the mess of DVD boxes and blankets. It opens a laptop and waits for it to boot up by counting how many bloody flies are buzzing around. The computer makes its happy Windows 7 'I'm awake!' jingle. The creature yawns and waits for the internet to come on. After going on Facebook it goes onto Blogger. It yawns, exposing long cream coloured fangs and makes a breath that smells of rotting meat and iron brew.)

Hello! It is I, Dark Dragon. The holidays have been quiet so far, Mcdogface has come over once, and I'm going to a Pizza Party tomorrow. "Anything else?" asks the reader. Nope. My life is pretty much that. hardly any social life at all. Although we have got some more Iron Brew, the proper stuff; BARR IRN BRU. Yum. ^_^
On the Blogs to the right you can see one by Derek Landly, author of Skullduggery Pleasant. He's going on a tour of the UK to celebrate the release of Death Bringer... And he's coming to Newcastle! Woot! Sadly, its in the early afternoon on the seventh of september; and I'll be in school. =( 
Never really met an author before. Mcdogface, like most other kids in Northumberland, has met David Almond at one of those school things, and a few others, and has web chatted with Roosterteeth (which you can do if you're a member. When they are making 'Achievement HORSE' and you're a sponsor of their website you can type in questions and advice and stuff)
I did once go to this lecture thingy at school by a guy that writes horror. That was pretty cool.
And one of my Dad's friends writes famous history books. Talked to him once. 
Other than that, never really talk to famous people. Never been to a concert either, but then again I have a narrow taste in music so that is my own fault entirely. =)


Also, there is a pigeon on the roof next to mine. It keeps on landing there. Got a green tag and tracker on the left leg and a yellow tag on the right; and one of the builders at our house (who keeps racing pigeons) says its a racing pigeon from Scotland, 'cuz they have green tags to track them or something.


Going off to make some more of my video now. From the dragon who's sick of hearing pigeons, geese and crows all the time,

August

White Rabbits! I'm not mad, just its traditional to say 'white rabbits' as the first thing in a conversation on the first of any month to gain a month's worth of luck. So here we are, August. The schooless month. Chill time methinks.
Nearly everyone's been going on holiday. To Wales, Spain, America, New Zealand, that place further south along the Pennines that I always forget the name of. And now its going to rain here. Why, cruel world, why?!
Although I am going to Germany later on in the holidays, woot! It'll be my first time abroad...
Also I'll still be trying to make The Most Epic Film Ever. Just now I'm trying to make the first animated scene, arrrggg!
As well as that, I have to review a book for my Mum's friend who's a writer, and finish The Book Of Dragon (which is epic; an assassin goes to war and doesn't like it much. READ THE AWESOME BOOK) and then read the Inheritance books again (Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr. Which are in no way copied from the David Eddings books.) because book four is coming in November, and I also have to read all the Skullduggery Books again, because Death Bringer will be here in September, and I still have all of the Last Dragon Chronicles fresh in my mind when the Fire Ascending comes out.
If you don't know who Skullduggery Pleasant is, or what the Last Dragon Chronicles are, look at the links to the bloggs made by the authors to the right.
So this dragon needs to get her claws busy flicking pages. But the internet is so cool, and I'm getting distracted by the Xbox all the time. No! I shall not go and play Divinity 2... Okay, maybe I will. Just for ten minutes. Half an hour. An hour. Six hours.
Also, I have some bad news. In my house, all the Iron Brew has been drunken. IRN BRU! Noooooooo!
Here's some good news to cheer everyone up; I have a Roosterteeth T-Shirt with Caboose on it. ^_^ It says "we are in the FUTURE. Things are very SHINY here."
And Noodles is well, although he now poops every time we pick him up. Some kitchen towel placed on the knees is how we respond to this. Does anyone know how to stop a snake from letting fly every time he's handled? 
From the sleepy Pyrotile* of the North,

It's the holidays. I get bored.

Dark Dragon's Awesome Test.

100th Post! Reviews and Holiday stuff

Hello citizens of the free world, how y'all doing? =P   
Saw two films today; True Grit and Paul. Haven't had the luck of seeing the new Harry Potter film like Mcdogface has (my brother was going to see it with his girlfriend so we couldn't see it without spoiling it for him; turns out they went to see Cars 2... It wouldn't spoil it for him if he'd been reading the book too!"
So a quick review for both films;


True Grit

An awesome film; not one to watch if you're squeamish about a few lost fingers. The main character's a girl called Maddy, who talks really fast all the time and isn't afraid to get her own way. At the beginning of the film she talks about her father dying, and then she's in the town to pick up the body, and 'sort out her father's business'. By this she means getting the money back from some horses belonging to her Dad and sorting out a bounty hunter to get the killer.
A guy called Rooster (His name's Rueben Cogley or something, but throughout the film he's called Marshal, 'cuz he's a Marshal) who is pretty awesome until near the end helps her, and so does this Texan Ranger Arsehole called Le Beef or something (don't like that guy)
The film is funny, awesome, and you have to pay attention 'cuz everyone has fast cowboy accents.


Paul

You must see this film!  The picture here is of Paul doing a 'Predator' impression, while he explains how his camouflage works. The film is about two nerds from Britain going around America to see great things like The Black Postbox and Area 51 (Don't know what those are? Well you have a life, well done! I don't and I'm proud!) and then they meet Paul, an alien who's "Not dangerous, just a bit... rude". The film contains strong language (name a film I like which doesn't!) and strong laughter, and a surprisingly good plot; I'm a bit of a spoilsport for guessing the end before it happens, but this film leaves you in the dark, and makes you laugh a lot more because of that (anyone who's seen the final stand off will know that I'm bigging-up the funny ending).


And Finally 
Welcome back Mcdogface! Haven't been able to contact him (Been saying "Hello?" Over and over again on various chat websites; I'm annoying that way) and if you can't be bothered to scroll down then could anyone reading this please find out a cheap, preferably free, way of recording stuff on the Xbox for vlogs (and Mcdogface? Need the youtube password, ta)
Also; holidays are great!
Hoo-Rah!


Dark Dragon
P.S 'spect to the two people who voted for me!

Any Ideas?

Does anyone know how to record the Xbox 360, with no cost

whatsoever? I need to know for future vlogs.

 

Any help would be much appreciated,

Sorry for the lateness...

Sorry, for not posting for a while I am just trying to sort my social life out (In my case actually get one!)
I will try to post as much as possible, but, you know (Okay, you probably won't but I'll continue). I saw the new Harry Potter film last night, I'm sorry to say I found quite alot of it funny (If your dirty minded you will see the hilariousness of Harry going around waving his wand about and shouting expelliarmus!) :-)

Going to clean my mind,
McDogFace
