GTA stats 2008-05-01 21:45:01 After spending a little over 5 hours (and getting four achievements) with GTA IV I decided to share some of the results of my first two weeks in Liberty City:Game Progress: 11.02%Missions Passed: 14Missions Failed: 4Missions Attempted: 18Replays Used: 4Times Busted: 2Times Wasted: 7People Killed: 38Playing Time: 5:01:24Days Passed: 14Cars Stolen: 33Bikes Stolen: 3Time wanted on 6 stars: 4:25Oh yeah, you're jealous.
Random Thought 2008-05-01 17:35:15 Time never moves slower than when you are watching a progress bar when you're downloading something or installing a program on your computer. I think there's a special version of hell where you are forced to re-watch your own life as a spectator. I will be particularly upset about all the time I spent watching a blue bar that said 89%.

Too many Videos 2008-05-01 17:34:53 I've been posting way too many videos lately. So I'll just post a little musing that's been on my mind.About a month ago, a friend of mine asked me what a "charmed life" is. At the time I didn't know what to say. It's not really something you think about. But I came across a good quote today that I think explains it perfectly:"A person is a succes if he gets up in the morning and gets to bed at night, and in between does what he wants to do"- Bob Dylan
Trying something new... 2008-05-01 17:15:01 I've decided to try something
out. I've been thinking about this for a while and I finally decided to do it. It’s this site called PayPerPost, and it’s a way to get paid to blog.I know, sounds like an ad already, right? Well, rest assured, dear reader, that it is. I have not been hacked or anything. I’m just trying out this blog for money service and wanted to mention it.It’s pretty simple. You sign up and submit your already-existing blog (they have a few requirements for participating blogs). They have a someone, as in a real human being not a bot, check it out, and if they approve you, you can accept “opportunities” to blog on and earn yourself some money.These opportunities range from blogging about websites to blogging about specific products or services. And the great

XBOX Voice 2008-05-01 17:13:44 I found this gaming website for Xbox 360 users. It's called 360voice.com. It takes note of your gaming habits through Xbox Live and writes a little blog from your Xbox 360's point of view. There is nothing too special about it, but it's a site that will give you a good chuckle every once in a while. Check it out at 360voice.com.My 360's personal page is here. And once you sign up you can leave me a comment. Read more:Voice
Texas Primary 2008-05-01 17:12:16 So today is the TexasPrimary
and I voted for Rudy Giuliani. I know he bowed out of the election months ago, but because it's only primary I'm voting for the guy I want to be the Republican nominee. But it's clear that McCain is going to be the Republican nominee and I'm not sure I want to vote for him.This is going to be a tricky election for me. While Giuliani and McCain are both moderates, they are on different sides several key issues I care about: adoption, gun control, health care, and immigration is the biggest one.But that by no means I would rather vote for the democratic canidate. Obama's stance national security and the Iraq War make me want to run away from him and Hilary is just power hungry and will do anything to get elected.I agree with, a friend of mine, Darrell Cook's
Vlog anyone? 2008-05-01 17:11:55 So I've been considering starting to video blog. Any thoughts? Ideas?
Random Picture Day 2008-05-01 17:11:02 Don't you love sites like deviantART and Flickr where you can just browse around and can find some of the strangest photos. I sure do. For a lack of something better to post, I think it's time to spotlight some those photos that make you look twice.Thristy? How about a drink?Seriously...Now this it high class:May be I shouldn't go surfing...And last but not least: Read more:Random

Billy Crystal plays for the Yankees 2008-05-01 17:10:10 Billy Crystal
loves the Yankees
, there no doubt about that. There is also no doubt that this guy is a celebrity. So the only obivious conculsion is that if you're a celebrity, you can play in a spring training game for one of your favorite teams. Garth Brooks did it for the Padres and Mets and even was offered a chance to play for the Rockies as well. This doesn't even apply only to baseball, rapper Master P played basketball for the Hornets and Raptors.Okay, so new plan. Become a celebrity, start up a charity, play in spring training for the Texas Rangers. Seriously, the Rangers are bad enough that they can afford to let a future celebrity like me play for a little bit. Read more:Billy

No title 2008-05-01 17:09:16 All this talk about South by Southwest I'm hearing this year makes me want to go next year. It's what Sundance used to be and so much more. Music, movies, internet, gaming, if you're a Gen X to Gen Y nerd of some sort then there is something at this festival for you.The passion and creativity in these artist shines through their craft whether they are musicians, filmmakers, web developers or whatever they do. It really shows. You can even see the passion in the fans and attendees of this festival.In short, SXSW just looks like fun and here's hoping that I can attend next year. Anyone else wanna go?
Happy St. Patty's Day 2008-05-01 17:08:09 So with this being no only the day to get drunk, it's the day of the Irish. So I'll show you this story about a certain type of Irish person. A leperchaun to be exact, the people in this news story actually believe they saw a leperchaun. Seriously, just watch:Ha!

While I'm not clever enough to perform a prank of my own, I'll just post a video of one of my favorite pranks.It's a liitle slow at first, but gets really interesting as it goes on.Zombies freak me out. Seriously, just the idea that zombies can exist freak me out. I'm not entirely sure how I would react if I ended up being the recieptiant of this prank.AprilFools

Legendary Map Pack 2008-05-01 17:00:44 Halo 3 is one of the best games to play with your friends. Well, yesterday, Halo just got a little better, because Xbox Live released new downloadable content for the game which includes 3 new maps to play on. Maps are the life force of Halo multiplayer and it's always fun to get new maps. That's why Foundry on in the first DLC map pack for this game was so great because you could create endless maps to play on using the Forge game type.Okay, I think I've nerded out enough, time to find some friends and play some Halo 3.

For all you guys... 2008-05-01 16:59:52 ...who think they want a girl that is into sports. Think again. Do you really want a girl spouting off sports like you and the guys do? Just watch this video and tell me you want a girl into sports.Yeah she's cute, but about 30 seconds into this I began wondering when she's going to take her shirt off. Maybe if you get some alcohol in her.
Take that Madden Curse 2008-05-01 16:58:14 Today, EA Sports unvailed the cover athlete of the next NFL video game, Madden
09 which is also celebrating it's 20th years of Madden video games. EA Sports seems to have found a way to (hopefully) evade the Madden Curse. They are featuring the first ever retired player as the cover athlete of Madden 09, Brett Farve.As a joke, NFL commisioner Roger Goodell released this statement: "Due to EA games trying to evade the "myth" of the video game madden curse by putting retired quarterback Brett Favre on the cover, he is now ineligible to be voted in the pro football hall of fame."
Laws to Live By 2008-05-01 16:57:26 A good friend of mine, Carlos Rousselin, writes a blog called Only the Lowly and in this blog he uses his life expriences to present some mottos to live by. I think it's time for myself to follow his lead and blog about some mottos/laws I live by. Here are the first (of many) 5 LAWS to live by:#1- Carpe Diem!Seize the Day! The ability to capture oppurtunities. You may only have one oppurunity, so seize it.#2- Growing old is inevitiable. Growing up is optionalThis goes hand in hand with #1, because growing up is all in the mind and while growing old is inevitiable, if you still live life to the fullest then you're still young at heart.#3- As long as there is life, there is hopeIf there is no hope, life may not be worth living. There are times in life that may be herd, but as long as t
