New metal!
...well, it's not "new," but close enough. I was in the store yesterday, and found a copy of Helloween's "Keeper of the Seven Keys: The Legacy." Immediately, I jumped on it and got it!...
Several times over the past few months, I've seen threads asking, begging, pleading and demanding an end to the pointless trolling on the Tiberium Wars forum. Most of them have been...
At some point, I've got to stop playing games for a week and get serious about studying. Maybe next semester... yeah, that's it. :roll: Let's face it: I've been a serious video...
This weekend was almost a polar opposite of last: grey, rainy, chilly... hard to believe May is today. The only saving grace was the good luck my family had: My wife got her car back. It's...
So, after letting the sun spark my energy and the fresh air cleanse my mind, I mulled over the ideas I had for re-igniting the ashes of our old union. Painful as it was, I think it may work to our...
It's amazing what a day in the sun, with the kids blissfully ignoring you as they play in the dirt, and a trip away from the house that doesn't involve school, can do for your mood. First...
I feel like I've let myself down... badly. I feel like I've let a lot of people down. My friends (those I see outside of the 'Net) know that I hold myself to a nearly-impossible...
So, I log in to my account this evening, to check out what's new in the world. I go to my profile, and I notice a little thing under my picture: "My Moderation History." [In the interests of...
People (friends and family) have been telling me for a long time that I have a talent for writing. I took them seriously enough that, somewhere, I have a rejection letter from Palladium Games for...
[Note: this is a work of fiction... blah blah blah... don't try this at home... blah blah... based on "WH40K: Dawn of War-Dark Crusade" from THQ/Relic and Games Workshop. I'm just...
This week, C&C 3 hit the stores... and I'm going to miss out on it for a while. Why? No money. After all I've done to defend the game on the GameSpot/GameFAQs boards, I can't even...
So... it's 2:45AM, and I've almost finished my programming labs for the week. I still have a few small assignments to do, but I have the whole weekend to do them. Good ol' BI-All is...
I've needed a laptop for school for some time now. For many of the labs in programming, we need a level of access on a computer that we can't get on the school machines. Doing many of the projects...
I'll admit it: I am addicted to WH40K. Between my bouts with the TW demo (excellent stuff), I'm driving through the campaign with the Tau again. Sure, people say they're badly imbalanced, but they...
...thank God. Normally, I look forward to time off, but the past two weeks have been brutal. The weather was miserable (even for winter in upstate NY, it's been a harsh winter); no job; and only...
I thought it would be interesting to see how these blogs worked; I never thought someone would use it against me as a weapon. I won't even dignify the little troll with a name; he's been...
Apparently, there are several things you can't include in a post on this site. Every time you use them, they cut off, and you see this silly "frbddn" thing. (Ironically, even that f-word is...
Do you know that feeling you get within a week or two of Christmas, when you know you'll be getting something new to play within a few weeks, but you can't mess with it now? That's what I'm...
I knew it was coming for about two months now, but it's official: I no longer have a job. I can't afford to renew my certification, and I just don't have the time to keep up with the technology....
Since I've never done any kind of blog before, I figured, "Eh, what the &%$#? What could it hurt?" Some of you may be wondering, "Where did that strange screen name come from?" I welded together...
