Happy Holladays!

Games, Life, Music

Good old December. In the past it was all about the snow days from school, endless hours of sledding and of course the topper of Christmas presents. Now it’s about going to work regardless of the weather, no sledding, complaining about the cold and shitty snow and buying all of those presents. I have the weirdest habit of finding shit I need only days before Christmas.

I managed to use my credit card only twice last month so my bill is low as shit. Not going to happen this month.
A lot of good videogames have come out, namely Gun, Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones and King Kong (which hits theatres in a week. I can’t decided if I want to see it or not). If anyone wants to give me an Xbox 360, I will gladly accept it. I’ll even be your best friend.

The weather people are saying snow is on the way, sounds like we won’t get too much in this area, but I’m prepared. No work, beer in the fridge and lots of new videogames to play. I’ll have to venture out to Best Buy to pick up the new KoRn album though. I fear it’s going to be too different…but KoRn are my boys and I gotta support them. If you have XM radio, hit up channel 48 tomorrow at 11am EST for KoRns Behind the Album special. Expect a review by Wednesday.

On my day off

Everything, Music

I felt like ass again today and since I barely slept, I called outta work today. Woke up really late and did a lot of nothing. But, I did some serious maintainence on my computer. Cleaned it out, updated all the software that keeps it running like a champ. I spent at least 3 hours on my MP3 library. Used MusicBrainz to get the proper tags for my collection and it renamed everything correctly. Then I organized the shit out if it, made some new folders, combined things, got rid of broken and dup files. My MP3 folder looks tight as hell now. Then I did the necessary changes to Winamp making/changing the lists I have. I also looked for a new Winamp skin but the 3 year old MMD3 still remains far and away the best one available. You may be asking, why didn’t I just use iTunes for this? Well I hate apple and anything that looks like brushed metallic. More than that, I’ve tried iTunes 3 times and everytime it would lose the tracks in the list and simply not work. So fuck ’em I say. Winamp does everything I need, barely uses resources and kicks ass in general. For those curious it, I have 1400 mp3s. I still have CDs I haven’t ripped, but that is the bulk of it.

Oh and I recieved the first disc for Outlaw Star and watched it today. One of my top 5 animes and I’m not sure if I’ve seen the whole series. It’s been awhile since I watched it on Adult Swim (and the DVDs are uncensored). Speaking of DVDs, I’m getting an upgrade from Netflix for a month from a class action lawsuit settlement. Holla.

Stay frosty my friends.

Go get it

Everything, Music

I got the Complete Calvin and Hobbes Collection and it’s a sight to be hold. Any C & H fan should get this book…hit up Overstock.com to get it for a fucking STEAL. Also, Franz Ferdinand dropped a new CD last week and it’s really good. Great toe tapper with a hint of funk that makes your rump move. Some fantastic drumming and musical soul on this album.
