ROCK BAND (my cross to bear)
Incase I am wrong and someone noticed, I have been checked out of the ‘blogosphere’ (yech) for wuite some time. A big contribution to that is Rock Band for my PS3. I feel I am an informed enough person to give you a piece by piece examination of how Rock Band is holding up now that it has been out for roughly 6 months. Before I get into current issues with the game, let me give you a...

Boner Soda
I was watching James Bond movies on SpikeTV (fresh programing guys) and I saw an advertisement for a product that my girlfriend seems to think that I need. I suppose the boner pill company Extenze has a penis enlargement beverage. I am not quite sure if it is for your erection or for overall penis size. The part that I don’t think was discussed in the marketing meeting was when a customer...
Console Gaming Accessories Have Gone Too Far
I remember a simpler time. A time when someone could buy a console, a couple of controllers and anything else you would want to buy would be another game. I find the Nintendo Wii to be the biggest culprit when it comes to exaggerated secondary controllers and accessories. In my experience owning a Wii I have come up with; 3 Wii Remote controllers 3 Wii Nunchuck controllers 1 Wii Zapper 1 Wii...
Running - A Game Plan
One of my main goals currently is working to improve things that I find myself to be lacking in (writing interesting content) in order to raise the lower number in my range of acceptable-ness. My biggest weakness is my ability to run and not hate it every step of the way. I think that a lot of people are in the same boat as me so I am going to share what I loosely follow to get my...
So this is where all my money goes...
The Credit Card pipe is a smoking device which is very nimble and cute. Can be kept loaded and stored in a wallet if need be. It appears to be easily cleaned but requires small metal screens. I have never used or even seen one in person but maybe Santa is reading…?
Three Video Games I Am Playing Currently Right Now
GRAND THEFT AUTO IV - The long anticipated, open-world game is everything everyone else wrote about it and more. I am currently a couple of missions away from completing the Main Storyline. What can I say that hasn’t really been said? A couple of things that I found impressive that may not have been covered by the mainstream gaming media; waiting for a police officer (or angered carackee)...
Would you like to learn Chinese?
I was recently enrolled in a Elementary Mandarin (Chinese) course at my local Junior college (which I highly recommend). The way of teaching it has been pretty standardized to one set of three books. I learned a thing or two from this, I would say, PERHAPS A BIT MORE? I am really here to talk about a website that I found helpful in learning some of the more “popular” or...

WatchI know everyone gets uncomfortable when someone tries to get you to watch a video online. You don’t have to scroll down to my even more dissapointing posts. I think that you will find solace in the included clip which is my favorite episode from a web based show The Patrice O’neal Show (COMING SOON). The gimmick is, it is already out! GET IT?! I promise this clip is more watchable...
Settlers of Catan
I never really liked board games growing up. I would always be terrible at them and it would never be my fault. I would always lose to a series of unfortunate dice rolls and no decision on my part would have changed the game for me either way. When my friends who were back from college coerced me into playing a board game for an hour or so, I was skeptical. This board game was named The Settlers...
SModcast
When I am not listening to the other two radio shows that I listen to (Ron and Fez and sometimes Opie and Anthony), there is one show that curbs the pangs like no other and that is SModcast. Chances are, if you are a fan of such films as Clerks or Mallrats, you will enjoy thismostlyweekly podcast hosted by Kevin Smith (Silent Bob) and Scott Mosier.The format of the show is very very light. The...
