For anyone who's rented or bought the Monsters Inc. DVD (or possibly the video as well), I think you'll agree that "For the Birds" on the special features disc is one of the funniest things to come out of Pixar. Those birds make the funniest noises.

I've been playing the crap out of Mario Kart 64 again. On multi-player mode, that is. What could be more fun than running around on go-karts, flinging shells and banana peels at your opponents? Well throwing bob-ombs might be interesting...

As for programming, I finally figured out how to load a mesh from an .X file, and actually display it correctly. I took the entire 3d model of the Electris game board and tossed it in (minus textures). Even in wireframe it looked pretty cool to have rotating around and such. And laying on it's back it kind of looked like a hangar of sorts. I might make the 3d model of the ship from the flash logo fly out of it or something just for fun. hehe. Once I have meshes and all that stuff down pat, I may attempt a 3d Electris, just for a learning experience.

Tomorrow is Tuesday... that means all new Buffy, Gilmore Girls, and Smallville episdes. Woo!
