My illness: Emphysema

What Is Emphysema? Emphysema is a degenerative disease that usually develops after many years of assault on lung tissues from cigarette smoke or other toxins that pollute the air. These toxins destroy the small air sacs in the lungs, called alveoli, that stretch as they transport oxygen from the air to the blood and then shrink as they force out carbon dioxide. As a result, the lungs lose their elasticity, and exhaling becomes difficult as the damaged lungs trap air and cannot effectively exchange it with fresh air. As the damage progresses, the effort needed to breathe increases and, ultimately, each breath becomes labored. (Illustration provided by the American Medical Association.) Emphysema is one of a group of lung diseases referred to as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) that can interfere with normal breathing. Other diseases that come under COPD include asthma and chronic bronchitis. According to the American Lung Association (ALA), nearly 16 million Americans are estimated to suffer from some form of COPD, and COPD is the fourth-ranking cause of death just behind heart ailments, cancers, and stroke.

Yesterday morning at 1am we had an earthquake, it wasn't serious but it was the biggest earthquake we've had in years (24 years)...the scale was about 4.7, our house shook, and the following day I discovered my big metal shed had moved (most likely caused by the earthquake).

Our world is going from bad to worse

What in the hell is our world coming to?
Now you can't just about say anything without anyone getting offended these days, I bet soon "Black pudding" will probably have to be renamed because they'll think it's a remark of racism.
And the crime in my area appears to be slowly increasing...at first it was all quiet, barely a crime going on...and now there's a 9 year old girl who lives locally by me has gone missing, and some guy my sister once knew in high school has been stabbed to death by his mates.
And Santa now can't have kids sit on his lap because of pedoism? lol, has anyone actually seen any of the Santa's get an erection when some kid sits on his lap? probably not.
My aplogise for being a bit mean about this but that is what is on my mind.

About Mugen...

Mugen is a fighting game for the PC where you can download & add ANY fighters you want, whether they're from Streetfighter, Mortal Kombat, Marvel, DC, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Dragon Ball Z and various Anime's and more, you can even add stages and theme music for that stage.I currently have a tool that allows me to edit colours of any character I want, I also know how to change the character's name's and the sizes of the characters, I also have a tool that'll let me create my own Mugen character which I hope to do at some point, what you'll need is the Mugen Character Maker, a sprite sheet for the character you want to create and sounds for the moves they do (like "HADOUKEN/SHO-RYU-KEN" for Ryu/Ken for instance).

Many people have made their own Mugen's available to download so you can either choose to make your own from scratch or download a pre-made one by someone else.
You can find several pre-made Mugen's at www.caiman.us
