“My hypocrisy only goes so far”
I'm your huckleberry...It’s like a junk yard around here…
There are computer parts from one end of my study to the other and I can't decide what to do first. My ultimate goal is to get my number 1 computer up and running with it's new parts. Secondarily I'm going to build my HTPC with yet another set of spare parts. Last, my...
New Computer Parts
Apologies on the brevity of this post, I'm heading out the door in a few minutes. I just wanted to say how cool it was of my boss to pick up some computer parts for me for all my hard work this month. It's the beginnings of a great system. He had a bunch of stuff to...
Halo 3 and Skate
September and October are what many would consider a "perfect storm" of video gaming. Not only are there too many triple-A titles coming out to count, but there simply isn't enough hours in the day to play them all. On a personal level, I had to be picky in my game...
Refunds abound
Like some piece of delicious candy being ripped from a child's hand I've been made to return Halo 3. My replacement copy via Amazon was, somehow, more damaged than my original. After calling the folks in the customer service center, and declining their offer of a 7-10...
Boiling Point
My collectors edition of Halo 3 is here... and it's all fucked up. Apparently, rumors that had been circulating last week about the packaging being "weak" were indeed true. The measly plastic knobs that hold the CDs within the metal tin are truly pathetic and as soon...
Hard Days Night
Well gang, I am, despite rumors to the contrary, still alive and kicking. We've had what I'm sure I'll refer back to at some later point as the "month from hell" at work. I've worked numerous 12 hour days, come home exhausted and cranky, and I simply haven't had the...
Matt and Melinda
I haven't mentioned this publicly on here before, but our very good friends Matt and Melinda are going through some trying times. Melinda was diagnosed with breast cancer at the end of August and has been battling it since. It's a very rare and progressive form of...
Review: Call of Duty 4 Beta
Cross posted at SavvyNation.com This weekend I was fortunate enough to get my hands on a token to download and play the Call of Duty 4 beta thanks to the nice folks over at CharlieOscarDelta.com. I'm a big fan of both the series and the "modern combat" genre and I was...
Waiting Game
"24-Hour Beta Sign-up has officially ended. I've pulled the final list, and the first batch of tokens are going to start sending out immediately. We sent out the first 10,000 last night starting at 7pm and we're beginning the next batch of 20,000 right now. If you go...
Wild Blue Yonder
This Sunday was especially fun for yours truely. It was the first time I've ever flown a plane. Yup, me, flying, in the sky. Crazy. My good buddy Matt took me up for a quick hour tour of the coast line and for about 20-25 minutes there he let me take the wheel... or...
