Mom made a trip out to Cali to be with Jen and the kids while Jimmy is away, she’s back now and I put up the pictures she took on my Flickr.

Finished BioShock
Took about 2 weeks, at least 15 hours or so. Took my time through most of it and then tried to pick up the pace through the last quarter.
While it’s an easy game, it’s easily one of this years best games. The story might even be the best ever in a videogame. Highly recommended. I plan on playing through it again sometime on Hard.
The big update
Since it’s been so long I’m just going to make a big list of shit. We’ll see how it turns out together.
Lots of great shit going down in entertainment. Summer is here with some force, I’m going to see Ratatouille and Transformers next week. Potter 4 drops that week and I plan on seeing that in IMAX before Book 7 (!!!) drops the following week. I need to also squeeze in Die Hard 4 somewhere in there. Also, Jimmy Nortons’ book hits next week and he’s doing a signing right by me in Ridgewood so I’m going to go to that for sure.
Korn’s 8th studio album (Untitled) hits at the very end of the month and I’m looking forward to that. Can’t make it to Family Values tour this year though. I’ll try to catch them the next time they come to town.
Verizon Vios sometime? Jonathan is getting it next week, depend on how that goes means we may or may not get it. Could be dope.
E3 is next week. It’s going to be smaller, but the news and media is going to be just as heavy for us gamers, xbox live is going to rule next week. Speaking of xbox 360, MS just expanded the warranty to 3 years from date of purchase and will be refunding those who have paid for service. The red ring of death failure rate is too high to ignore and they have to get back into good graces with customers. They want people talking about their games, not how the console is built like a box of matches. Sony may be dropping the PS3 price by 100 bucks in 2 weeks so expect MS to follow suit. Dope games worth checking out: Forza 2, The Darkness and DiRT. I’m currently making my way through Lost Planet which is both good and frustrating.
Since leaving XM after the Opie and Anthony suspension, I bought a 30 gig Creative Zen Vision (Black) and it’s dope. Easily stands up to what the ipod has to offer and it even has more features for the same price. I got an FM transmitter for my car since my Pioneer head unit doesn’t have an aux jack (damn my non-foresight in 2004). It works alright, but on the Turnpike forget it. It’s like listening to a radio that’s getting a signal from the moon. The audio quality at it’s best is passable, but I’m not all that satisfied with it. So my goal is to change up my car system when I get a new job, get a new Pioneer head unit with an aux jack, take out the busted CD changer, keep the XM tuner (put it under the floor in the back) and rock it like that. I’ll sell the current head unit and the FM tuner for the Zen (may keep it though, it’s good as a car charger too).
So yeah, I’m looking for a new job. My job is totally lame, I’m just not happy. Pay blows, benefits suck and the head management is incompetent and clueless. I know I can do better, I just have to do something about it.
More nothing
So much for that update…maybe a significant one later today.
It’s been awhile
I’ll have an update tomorrow, I’m too tired to type now.
Patrice O’neal telling it like it is
Opie and Anthony were suspended from XM today on this same issue. It’s a sad day.
From the good folks at Turkey Hill
They make an ice cream called Party Cake. Go get it as soon as you can, then you can thank me.
It’s a breakthrough in flavor technology.
Flat tire
Was driving around town yesterday and my right rear tire blew out. The hole looks like a knife went through the side of the tire. It couldn’t be fixed so now I’m out $140 for a new tire. At least my birthday is coming up, get some money to recoup a bit.
Back, back, from Cali, Cali
Back from the trip, it was a great one. Gotta get things back in order and I’ll have a good update and give Flickr a good workout.
Going, going, back, back
….to Cali Cali.
I’m outta here for a few days, time to hit up the West Coast.
Oh! Hey Sony, nice PS3 launch in Europe and Australia. bwahahahah.
When animals get crunk
Awesome.
Fly away
After discussion our plane tickets to CA have been made. Blasting off near the end of March to LA, it should be good times. Gotta find a hotel now.
