“My hypocrisy only goes so far”
I'm your huckleberry...Halo 3: ODST
Halo 3: ODST is a solid addition to the Halo universe, but, at least in my opinion, fails to advance the franchise or add anything substantial that couldn't have been added via downloadable content. It's not to say that ODST isn't without it's merits, of which there...
Where did September go?
Seriously? We've completely lost a month. I have no idea what happened. Things have been universally crazy around the ranch for quite some time now. We're helping Lauren's family as much as we can, we're helping my family as much as we can, and as a result we're...
Back Home
Well, it was a crazy trip back up north, but we're home now, safe and sound. I'm back at work catching up on emails. It was great to catch up with Chip and see how he was doing. It's a shame I couldn't get with Chris and Nagle as well, but schedules just didn't work...
Ortiz
I need to say a couple things in regards to David Ortiz. Having heard the story about testing positive for steroids, I have to say I'm taking issue with it. Not Dave, no, the story itself. First of all, I need to say that as a RedSox fan, I'm going to try and be...
One Day at a Time
It's been an interesting week, that's for sure. Let me fill you in on a little of the back story before I jump right into the present. A couple weeks ago, my father was feeling rather ill. He couldn't keep food down and his stomach was hurting. He went to the doctors,...
Loss for words
My dad had minor surgery on Friday. They found a small growth and decided to check it out. My brother just called. The results are in. He has Stage 3 colon cancer. I'm at a loss. I'm... I dunno, I just... I can't believe this. I'm looking up plane tickets to New...
Top 15 Games that Need to Happen
Well, E3 has come and gone, announcements have been made and with one or two exceptions, everyone had a pretty good idea what to expect this year. While I'm obviously interested in what the game industry releases in the next 8 months, I thought it would be fun to...
Product Review – Keurig B60 Special Edition
For quite a while now I've been a fan of the concept of "single serve" coffee. I've had and used a whole variety of coffee makers. Everything from a Tassimo to my favorite Melita One-to-One to the high end Lavazza systems. Normally, I have two coffee makers as well....
Getting the Band Back Together
Last night for the first time in probably two years I sat down and reunited with my old comrades for some good old fashion, ass kicking computer gaming. The members of the world famous Texas Combat Crew got together and had what I would consider to be a pretty awesome...
Austin TX – Day 3 and 4
Wow, this week has flown by. It's been two days since I updated and most of it was a blur. I actually intended to write about my experience yesterday but I was so tired I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Thursday was the first day of intense breakout sessions....
