Well, I was in a car accident just a few minutes ago. My last accident was over 5 years ago, and my fault. This one, however, was caused caution by rather than carelessness. I was coming up Southwest Pkwy just passing from a light, so that I wasn't going that fast. I was in the lane closest to the median and there was already a car sitting in ( Read more... )

We’re sort of techies, but not to the point of extravagance, meaning we don't just have to have the new toy. Being even mildly techie, however, leads to problems. For Christmas, I received a pocket pc, to which the usual reaction is, "a pda?" Ah, I say, but it can also work as an ebook reader and mp3 player. Anyway, for having it for less than ( Read more... )

So I had this great post planned, but don't ask me what it was about, in the ensuing time, last Monday to be exact, Dustin broke the computer. It's weird to realize how dependent I am on it, I mean really dependent. I use it to get TV episodes of Adult Swim, even the ones I already watched, heh. I use it to pay bills, sell books, bid on auctions ( Read more... )

I've played through the first two chapters of FFX-2 now, can you say thick with mini-games? There are literally fifteen official ones, and then there are several missions that work like mini-games. It makes me wonder what the game designers were thinking. "Hmm...we need content..." "Ooh! Oooh! Let's have everyone think of a mini-game! " And ( Read more... )

Turns out that Robert was right. We just got our copies of FFX-2 in today, instead of Tuesday, because we always get them late. The first person that bought one was dressed in Tidus jewelry, and asked (with a practiced "gay" lisp) "Can I get FFX-2 please?" The Tidus necklace and rings (Read more... )

I feel like I should make up some excuse as to why I don't post anymore. I think it comes down to this. I feakin' hate my job (or Pod 6, heh, Sealab 2021 for anyone that doesn't watch the show like mad), and I would rather spend an afternoon coughing up blood then talking about it. Then there's my home life...but everyone vote if they want ( Read more... )

Oh, and while I'm at it not only did the steal from the Bible and anime, but also Dune. What they can't leave Dune alone?

Saw the movie tonight. It ended with me using stream of curse words and flipping off the screen. Of all the stupid shit. Jesus. And yet the movie WAS entertaining; I'm just sure it wasn't funny in the way they intended it to be. I mean let me sum it up in one word.... FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

Today I was reading the Kare Kano vol. 3 manga, and it got me to thinking in what ways I'm like Miyazawa. What it particularly triggered is a memory from college. There is a scene in "Fighting Woman, part 3" in which the teacher is asking everyone else in the class to answer a question and no one can, so he calls Miyazawa up to answer it (which she ( Read more... )

I went to see Underworld. It was laughably bad. I just kept cringing and hoping it would get better. Then I had the joy of checking the IMDb boards to see that people thought it had a really good plot and script. As for the emotional story, all the characters felt horribly shallow, I didn't care about any of them except for a brief feeling for ( Read more... )
