Jay McGavren's Journal

Street Fighter IV is a rock solid game, but I’m having a hard time staying interested. Part of it is a lack of parries, part of it is my taste in games maturing, and, well, part of it is that I’m getting old.

I'd make the worst disaster movie writer ever...

I dreamt I was back in Omaha, driving around downtown Benson, when a thick fog began slowly tumbling over the street. I pulled over and got out of my car to wait it out. That was when rocks began bouncing down the hill - approaching at roughly 100 miles an hour. I wasn’t particularly freaked out at this point, I just picked one of the larger ones up and blocked a few as they approached.

Then as they approached boulder size, I sought refuge behind a tree, and then inside a house. As the deluge passed, I was trying to figure out how I’d report to my Mom that I was okay, and then realized she was there in the house with me, doing laundry. (She was borrowing their washer.) I told her to stay put and went out to find my brothers.

Still no idea if this was supposed to be a volcano, or a meteor strike, or what.

Aftermath...

This picture really needs surrounding text to complete the look, so...

A quick Flay task for Rake...

The only other one I saw posted missed parts of the specified subfolders. So here goes:

begin
	require 'flay'
	desc "Run duplicate code analyzer"
	task :flay do
		output = `flay #{FileList["lib/**/*.rb", "app/**/*.rb"].join(' ')}`
		fail "Error #{$?}: #{output}" unless $? == 0
		puts output
	end
rescue LoadError => exception
	warn "Could not load flay - it might not be installed."
end
