I just got my consoles all RE-hooked up to a spiffy little Chinese 8-way RCA splitter which makes switching between consoles and the tv a hell of a lot easier, but that's if they all actually have the RCA outs. I was a little worried it wouldn't work as it wasn't that expensive, but it works great right now. The only one that doesn't is my top- ( Read more... )

I have officially perfected my time machine and have come forward 7 months. I thought the first thing I should do even before seeing how much humanity has changed in my time away was update my LJ ( Read more... )

Something I don't usually announce to everyone (only because it rarely comes up) is that I'm a fan of old-school video games. I'm a collector of old NES games specifically, but I also collect SNES, Sega Master System and Famicom games as well. I've been a video game player for most of my life, mostly a Nintendo-phile, and I've owned almost every ( Read more... )

Big Bang Theory just got Ross-and-Racheled. I wish unique and semi-intelligent sitcoms wouldn't lower themselves to cliched situations to falsely inject drama into a show for no apparent reason other than the fact they can't properly write a stable relationship.

I don't like letting my LJ lapse, but I'm back to work full time and haven't had the inspiration to start typing. Went to Vancouver two weeks ago for my Grandma's 90th birthday, where we also celebrated my mom's 65th and my 32nd. It was nice to see all of my family again, considering it's insanely rare we're all together at one place and time. ( Read more... )

I hate collecting television series piecemeal, especially when they release a series set after all the separate seasons have been released and do ( Read more... )

Again, John Stewart was awesome last night. His take on Glenn Beck and just every other idiotic, paranoid talk-show host was perfect. But, and not to take anything away from him or the writers, it's far too easy to make fun of someone who writes in his journal about how much he's in love with Sarah fucking Palin.

Back to work full-time and already I'm exhausted. Been installing some new equipment which has had me hunched over a drill putting holes in concrete while lifting out old equipment and lifting in the new, each piece weighing at least a hundred pounds. But I finished today and can take a rest; too bad I have a 7-day work week. But I'm not ( Read more... )

Tron: Legacy looks awesome. That is all.

Just got Destroy All Monsters in the mail yesterday, #9 in the Godzilla series, and finished it today. I've now seen, and own, all the Godzilla movies. I did partake in another viewing of the 1998 American version, then I got rid of it; it did not belong in my collection anymore. Funnily enough, I ordered the dubbed Americanized version of ( Read more... )
