  1. I'm digging this already.

  2. I took the kids to a kids b-day party. Got the oil change. Went to Costco and got a new cooler and lots of meats. Came home and ate some cheeseburgers. Got ready in my suit and we went to a 18th birthday/graduation party at nice hotel. We were there for 4 and a half hours and the party is still going. Got in a couple slow dances with wife. Good times!
  3. Yes, but to what extent is he talking about? Just games? Valve is daring and Nintendo wants to one up the competition with this console. Should be interesting to see how this one plays out over the next couple of years.
  4. The regular season showed so much promise. Then came a playoff game. Coach would quit throwing the ball and start running the ball when the run game had been shut down the entire time. Throwing was still strong, but it won't work if you don't call the play! Third and long doesnt mean try and run it up the gut. WTF was he thinking. Even a football dumbass like me knows better than that.
  5. Conrad opened up the Yahoo! Football league. You joining up?

  6. Amazon has it's gold box deal of a 4G 360 + Kinect + Amazon $100 credit = for $300. Amazon is also doing it's Lightning Deals on games today. Super Monkey Ball 3D has 25 minutes left for 45% off.
  7. Another Kansan? Or Misery-an? 'Cause no one roots for the Chiefs unless its their home team. Not quite. My dad was in the military. I now claim Cali as home (was born here and wound up back here). Most of my childhood was in Japan, where the only major game, college or above, I saw was Air Force taking on someone in Tokyo. It was cool because I got the game program, which was mostly in Kanji, which I think my dad still has in his garage. Upon returning to the states and seeing football on TV (not something I would have seen on TV normally), I saw Christian Okoye running the ball with such grace and skill. I didn't really know much about the NFL, just football at the high school level, playing with my buddies in pick up games, and my dad's worship of Joe Montana. The impact of him running stuck with me, and I've followed the Chiefs ever since. I did live in Illinois for a few years there, right across the border from St Louis, where no one followed the Cards. Then, they moved to Arizona, which was all for the better.
  8. I saw him argue with a guy and spout some things like "stupid" and other terms that don't make for a good argument. The fact he was warned each time, banned numberous times, and still came back for more really made me wonder what went through his mind that made him want to be heard again. I picture the stereotypical guy behind a computer who has no friends, as no one can stand him, but still was lonely in his arrogant state. We all make our own fates when it comes to making friends. He just seems to have a self-destructive personality, IMO.
  9. Al Gore inspired me to think of Weird Al. The snowball just kept rolling....
  10. NOPE! I've got no passion. I've no patience. And I hate waitin'. That's why I emailed Conrad. He replied: "I will get off my lazy ass and reform the league this week. Hopefully my motivation will somehow magically carry over to the real league and they will get a deal done." Here's to A New Hope.
  11. Just got Uncharted 2. Play the first before I dig in?

  12. Basically, they are all greedy. No big surprise. If I don't get my football season, I'm going to have to watch college football. Then I'll just be pissed at the greed of the BCS. Then, I'll be forced to watch tennis. No one should have to watch tennis.
  13. Went to the waterpark today. Sunburn. Worth the pain.

      In Fresno/Clovis called Wild Water Adventure Park. It's a little out of the way, but not horribly crowded. MILFs for the eye candy. Warm until late. Great kid areas. Wont be down to the OC/LA until early July! I'm usually there every other weekend for a party or something, so this is an unusual stretch.

      Man, we didn't need a 10 page essay on the place.

  14. I'm a Chiefs fan. And, I root for whoever is on my fantasy teams. One or two years I was rooting for Wes Welker. He was a stud. Romo was worth having before Jessica Simpson came along. She ruined him like she ruined music. I even rooted for a Packer at one point in time!
  15. Symantec is saying there is a new trojan out there that is mining bitcoins. So, be careful out thereBitcoin Link to Understanding.
  16. Spent 2.5 hrs waiting for the TV repair people, just to get an estimate to send to Mitsubishi. Now, I'm pissed.

  17. As long as your user name wasn't xsbs, there shouldn't be too much shame. Guy was banned from Kotaku 6 times.
  18. Named after Revan of Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic. Star Wars Wiki says it best: "Once reunited with his disciples, Revan's campaign for Jedi intervention in the war against the Mandalorians continued, albeit somewhat differently than before. Whereas his efforts had previously been considered a curiosity at best, in the context of a larger Mandalorian War he suddenly found himself a celebrity. As the Revanchist movement behind him grew, the Republic media cast Revan in the role of crusading savior, wrongfully ignored by the aloof High Council. Though first referred to as "the Revanchist Leader" in reports, it was not long before the young Jedi Knight was given a new, "snappier" moniker: the Revanchist." Revanchism - definition: (Government, Politics & Diplomacy) a foreign policy aimed at revenge or the regaining of lost territories Hence, the character from my favorite game was named Revan. On a related note, BioWare was hacked today/last night. Now I need to change another password.
  19. Two things: 1. Good news seems to be emerging from the talks. I need football like Katy Morgan needs... you know. 2. One of my fantasy leagues has been activated for this coming/not coming season. Shit's about to get real! :mma:
  20. Foo Fighters seem to have that same effect on me. I love their singles, but don't find any value on their albums. I think they just put together a bunch of songs, trying to make them all rock, then pick out the best one(s) to release as singles. I've bought many of their albums and come up with the same conclusion each time. Yet, I repeat this over and again. Really love those singles.
