Next week, Nov 5 at 1:27PM EST, it'll be 5 years since I lit up my last cigarette. I now don't smoke or vape now. I used the Patch for two months after my last smoke. Once that was done I never picked up a smoke again. It was a LOT easier to quit than I thought it would. For decades folks were telling me how hard it was to quit. It's why I never tried. One day I was just kind of over smoking. Like it had been a 20+ year fad for me and I stopped. Maybe I just don't have an addictive personality.
My mom told me that my dad smoked when they met/got married. Grew up on a farm, went into the army. Started some time in his teens and quit cold turkey the day she told him I was on the way. Think he would have been about 24 at the time, so not like it had been decades. He lit up a cigar a couple of times I know of when I was young - family weddings, I think. I believe the friend I mentioned quit for her 40th. I never took it up as a regular thing - just the occasional cigar. Been a few years since my last one.

My dad was the same way. I'm the oldest child and when my dad heard I was coming he immediately quit. He's in his mid-70s now and hasn't smoked since. Sadly I can't say the same for my little brother. He's been trying to quit for about a decade with no success.

I never smoked. My dad quit in the Navy (late 60s/early 70s) until the ship's doctor showed him the lungs of a long time smoker who died at sea. He said it looked like when oil gets in a puddle of water.

I had been working on Luna and the MC's father Patrick for a flashback scene in the future. I made him look really cool and badass looking. I then remembered that old Special Forces saying I kept hearing growing up. "Don't worry about the big giant muscle freak killing you if you're a top government official and an enemy of America. Worry about the fucker with glasses that looks Bill Gates." So I redid the character. What do ya think? View attachment 5382426
So very true

I spent yesterday building some environments for the Alpha. A few were rebuilds from some that I made when I first started working on this update but I didn't like. As I've said the vast majority of this update uses custom built environments. I'm guessing like 95% of the environments used I custom built. That is one of the reason this update is taking so long. It's not the main reason. That would be the script being so long. Anyway, here's the first preview render. Stay tuned... bon1.png

I found your Ozark half Japanese kid - but he's a he, and not a she. :LOL:

Watching a show from Expedition Unknown/Expedition X (S5E2) called "The Ozark Howler". One of the places they go is a farm near Highlandville, MO (about halfway between Springfield and the Arkansas border and less than 3 miles southwest of Ozark) - mom's last name is Wigger (yes, really - and just an average middle-aged Caucasian woman you'd find all over that part of MO), but her adult son's last name is Nakato and has both Japanese and Caucasian features, as you'd expect. Don't know whether she was in the Army or just liked a certain fiddle player from the area. ;)

See! I keep telling folks Asian Rednecks are a thing. No one believes me. Because folks don't see it in movie, TV shows or video games they think it's fake. I was in North Carolina many years back when I learned that there's entire towns of Vietnamese Rednecks that came over after the War in Vietnam. They were refugees. Over the past 50+ years they've just adopted Redneck Culture.

If you heard this guy speak without seeing him, you wouldn't think he's anything other than an average Euro-descended Ozarkian. Houston was a gateway for lots of Vietnamese and Cambodian refugees in the early seventies. Some of the second generation folks I'd run into up in the Piney Woods of East Texas had East Texas drawls, but might throw in some Asian slang and other terms they picked up at home. Sounded a little funny at first, but you got used to it pretty quickly.
