“My hypocrisy only goes so far”
I'm your huckleberry...Jury – round 2
I sitting in the parking lot of the Brazoria county courthouse at the moment. I'm visiting it for the 2nd time this week. On Monday I was selected for a pannel. For those of you fortunate enough not to have had jury duty yet, a pannel is a larger "pre-jury", meaning...
Just my luck
After a long week of work, a party last night and church tomorrow, I was looking forward to relaxing on Monday. I was all excited when I opened the mail box too. Sitting there were my copies of Electronic Gaming Monthly, Computer Games and Computer Gaming World... but...
Two Best Movies of the Year
Jarhead and Goodnight & Goodluck. I was able to catch both of these over the weekend and was entertained and impressed by both. Jarhead is getting battered a bit by reviews, mostly for being a "war movie" without actually having battle scenes and for lack of a better...

Anniversary
Lauren and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary last night. Doesn't seem like two years. Seems like 20, but in a good way. It seems like she's been with me forever. I can't remember when she wasn't. We actually took a bit of a drive down past our usually stomping...

Saying Doom the movie was "good" somehow seems like dirty pool, especially after I lambasted The History of Violence for having too little background story. I'll just suggest you leave your disbelief at the door for this one. It wasn't bad, it just requires a certain...
Quake
In case you didn't know Quake 4 came out this week... and I couldn't care less. Apparently its single player is at least interesting but it multiplayer, the reason most of us would buy it, is a pathetic rehashing of Quake 3. Reviews mention that they've "recreated"...
Party
Well, the party on Saturday went great. We ended up having about 12 people over. The usually gang came, along with some folks we haven't seen in a while and a few new faces. Lauren's cousin Blake stopped by which was cool, we never get to see him. Lauren's friend from...
One more thing…
If you're looking for xbox party games, look no further than Fusions Frenzy, Super Monkey Ball, Whacked and Kung Fu Chaos. All are highly recommended... Especially when the guests have been drinking.
Toying
The mere fact that I can write a post while I'm using the restroom has to be some sort milestone for human ingenuity. Seriously. The web while you poop, right up there with the wheel, flight and the lightbulb. Moving on. Has anyone ever bothered to do any of those...
