In a further effort to prove that I have no life (if my Elemental Twitter updates left you with any doubt ) I have decided to create a countdown to the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) 2009. If you're like me, you have many reasons to look forward to PAX, namely Elemental, the Elemental beta, and info about the Sins: Diplomacy expansion. Unfortunately, the forums don't seem to allow you to put a countdown in like a picture, so I have the next best thing, a link to an online countdown created by...
While some conservatives claim that Obama wants to kill your granny I hesitate to accept that as Obamas sole reason for pushing the health care reform. From the private insurers point of view it makes perfect sense to oppose the reform ... if they didn't, they'd face an immense decline in profits if either the government option provides better care or if regulations bar insurers from avoiding costs by their current methods. But it's a bit too simplicistic to merely claim that one party act...
Shot at a "grassroots" rally against public health care in New Hampshire, USA. I suppose the guerilla protester had to run fast soon after the picture was taken. Check out the yellow sign in the back (thanks Neilo). A classic. He shalleth burn in hell along with his pron. That's mighty generous. No, I can't read that either. But seeing the protagonist from the anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya on a palestinian protest sign is just ...
Some may have seen the news that an evil pirate named Joel Tenenbaum took 30 songs hostage and was convicted due to this heinous crime. He was sentenced to pay 675,000$ for downloading and sharing 30 songs. This means, that the worth of each song amounts to 22,500$! Or in other words: If you get your hands on those songs, you are FILTHY RICH!!! Someone on the infamous PirateBay website recognized this and decided to help get other people rich. Thus strong is the generosity of those t...
I hardly know where to begin laughing and/or raging about this unbelievably Dilbert-Is-Real interaction between the the Lego brand management people and the Spinal Tap guys who liked a fan's Lego stop-animation video enough to include it in their recent tour. The story is so damned kinky-- not so much the fun kind of kinky as the confusing folded-protein kind of kinky. Very hard to tell where the jokes begin and end...
I know it's been out for a couple months, but I missed it when it was on TV, and only recently saw it, thanks to Netflix. So, what did you think of Caprica? Personally, I didn't really like it. It just wasn't as good as BSG. Even the special effects weren't as good. When they showed the Greystones' house/mansion, it just looked terrible. The Cylon effect, though, were pretty good. And the begining was very unexpected (kids, don't watch it, at least not with your parents ) I think they c...
First post on a new blog, hopefully I can keep this one going I plan on using this as a place to discuss gaming, rant about whatever crosses my mind, review stuff, or just jabber on and on about nothing. Stay tuned for updates!
Hi, When I move my mouse cursor to the right edge of the screen, it goes off the side completely, so when I click, whatever application I'm running minimizes. I need to know why this is happening, because I can't move the camera to the right when I'm playing games. This has only recently begun to happen.

15 years ago, Shoemaker-Levy rifled up a series of comet debris into the gas giant. Well, seems like it took an amateur astronomer from Australia by the name of Anthony Wesley to tip Nasa or other professionals on July 19th to aim their telescopes at the event. Earth would have been slammed to oblivion, btw. Here's the Hubble " report "! Nobody was able to detect the object BEFORE such an impact, this time.
What are your favourite "float on air" music pieces? One of mine: Celtic Woman singing "Orinoco Flow" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X-xncwshgY Those Ladies are Angels with their wings hidden, incredible singers of stunning quality and beauty - they are truely "The Angels of UTube" Regards Zy
People celebrate their birthday every year(some of us more than once ). Why shouldn't the things and places we love get that same attention? We sometimes forget to celebrate these things outside of the standard 5, 10, or 100 year marks, and I think that's just rubbish, so happy and 308th Detroit!!!
