Entrecard 2008-05-01 12:53:00 Hey there friends. So I joined a new community not too long ago where you create your own business card and "drop" it off on other blogs that are also members. As you can see on the top right of my page, I have a "blog of the day" with a "drop" sign underneath it. So far, I think it's a great tool to not only check out other blogs but also to expose your blog to others as well. There's also a business sense to it, since this is your business card. Once you join you have the option to promote other blogs on your site and you can promote yours on others. You gain credits by dropping your card and by promoting other blogs. You can then use those credits to buy a spot on another blog to advertise yours. So far, it's been working great for me. I drop off on sites I think are cool and I
Google Pagerank 2008-04-30 11:42:00 Hey there. Today is the day that Google
updated the page ranks. From what I read, it used to be done every 2 to 3 months but it looks like they are going to update the rankings every month. Because I'm still new to the game, I had a huge "N/A" as my ranking. I checked it out this morning hoping that it would improve. Honestly, I don't know if a big fat "0" is better than "N/A". lol On the bright side, at least I have a number as a rank now. lol So... I guess I'm happy. For those of you with sites, here is a website where you can check your google ranking on. PageRankZone.com
The Crime of Padre Amaro 2008-04-29 11:24:00 Hey there. I checked out this movie over the weekend with my wife. My wife told me so much about it and every now then she would bring it up and since we're part of the Netflix family, we decided to get it so that I can watch it. Despite the fact that the movie is in Spanish, with English subtitles, I found myself very involved with the film. Because of all the scandals that we hear in regards to our local churches, you can imagine that this film is not very popular with the catholic church.The film starts off with newly ordained priest, Amaro, sent to his first church to study under Padre Benito. Benito considers himself an ogre and implies to Padre Amaro that that is the reason the bishop sent him there is to whip him into shape. With a new pair of eyes now overseeing the small town, Pad

The Girl Next Door 2008-04-25 00:11:00 Hey there. Wow. This movie is just insane and what makes it even more unbelievable is that it is based on a true story! It's told via David's view so only God knows what else when on in there when he wasn't there. Some of the shots in this film just made me cringe... Especially the one of Meg, when you get a frontal view of her hanging. Just straight out chilling...The story starts off with David Moran saving the life of a homeless guy who just got run over by a van. He administers CPR and the guy lives. He then goes home, with his narrative, speaking of pain. And how one of his wives didn't know what pain is. He then rolls out a water color painting and stares it...Take us back to the 50's, David is a boy, out by the creek catching crayfish. Some after Megan is introduced and hangs out wi Read more:Next Door
Odin's House 2008-04-24 16:05:00 Hey there. So I decided to build Odin a dog house. I went to Home Depot yesterday and got all the wood that I needed. The only thing that I did not get was the exterior plywood sheet... Since we're in a mid sized car, there was no way in hell I was going to be able to fit that in. I'm thinking of maybe having HD deliver it to me... but not if it doesn't make sense cash wise. So as I was unloading the wood planks, I told my boy that he's going to help build it. From what I hear, he's excited. Gonna try to get the house done by nightfall so that I can have plenty of time to watch The Girl Next Door. Received it yesterday, but because the Lakers were on, I didn't watch the movie. Watched the game instead. So yeah. lol I got my plans, got my wood, got my saw, and I got my helper Read more:House
Perfect Blue 2008-04-21 23:14:00 Hey there. I just caught this flick and I can say that I enjoyed this psychological thriller. It's a story of Mima, the lead singer in the pop star group, Cham. Mima has spent years on her perfecting her voice, but her agent and agency feel that she make "big bucks" as an actress. Mima announces to her fans during her last performance of her decision to become an actress. Not many fans are thrilled and Cham is now a duo instead of a trio.After her last performance, as Mima is walking home, a fan hands her a note. As Mima enters her apartment, she opens the note and it contains a website. Since Mima is computer illeterate, she did not understand the note and figured it to be threatening. At that moment, she receives a fax with the word "traitor" written all over it. Shortly after, Read more:Perfect
The Girl Next Door 2008-04-21 00:22:00 Hey there. I love me some horror flicks. I stumbled upon a review for this movie and I must say, I'm looking forward to watching this. Stephen King says, "This is the dark-side-of-the-moon version of Stand By Me". High praise from who many consider to be the king of horror. I haven't seen the movie yet but it I should be getting it soon. I was a little disappointed because I thought I was gonna get this in this weekend's Netflix shipment, but alas, it wasn't to be. Looks like I'll be getting it on Wednesday. I can't wait!Be wary of your neighbors. You never know who are close to. Until then, later.*Update:I just read a review for the flick, "Bug". Now I wanna watch that too. Read more:Next Door
Writings 2008-04-21 00:07:00 Hey there. Gonna start my writings again. Short stories, poetry, maybe even a few fan fics. I'll most likely start on them tomorrow. I'll need to see how I'm going to be able to sort them out or organize them. I still don't know the tricks of the trade so I'm not sure if "tagging" the posts will work in regards to keeping them together. Guess I'll work on that once I have them down. I have a few ideas of what I want to write about and as of right now, I'm thinking of maybe posting a chapter at a time... if I decide to write a story. We'll see how it comes out. Until then, later.

Google 2008-04-20 23:53:00 Hey there. Looks like I got a new sponser. I'm giving this Adbrite a shot since Google
claims that there was "clicking fraud" on my site, causing my account to be disabled. Now, I understand if there was an issue on my site, but I would've appreciated a warning or better yet, suggestions to prevent this so called fraud. Instead, I just get an Email stating that it's disabled. I was pissed. But after doing some research online, I find that I'm not the only one whose account was disabled without much proof, since Google will not disclose any infomation what so ever. There's a lot of unhappy bloggers out there that Google has just shut out with out so much of a warning and once you're blocked out, you are blocked out. No point in trying to get back in the program. So eh... I don't w
Abortion? 2008-04-18 13:43:00 Hey there. What's with this woman from Yale claiming to have impregnated herself 9 times and forced her body to miscarry each and every time for the sake of art. I call complete bull shit on this. I understand that people will some pretty weird things in the name of art but this is not art. This is just plain wrong. I don't know if she's doing this for her 15 mins of fame, considering that the shock value is so high. Yale has come out and quickly attempted to squash the whole thing by saying that the student, Aliza Shvarts, was submitting her work as "creative fiction" while Shvarts, herself, claims it was very real. Supposedly, she received semen samples from males, only god knows how, and she inseminated herself, my best guess would be with a turkey baster if she wasn't doing the
Pay Per Post 2008-04-18 11:01:00 Hey there. As I was surfing the net, looking for a way to make a few bucks with my blog, I stumbled across this great opportunity. Everyone is a critic, so why not put those skills to good use? Many of us rave or rant about our everyday lives, and often include about how we feel about a particular product or service. payperpost lists advertisers that want reviews of their products from us bloggers and they are more than willing to pay for quality posts. Why not get paid for something that most of us already do at no charge? Signing up is free and the program could not be any easier. Sign up, accept an opportunity to review, and post. Easy as 1-2-3, no? This program is perfect since you're not at the mercy of the advertisers. We can be ourselves and integrate the review right into our Read more:Pay Per Post
Society 2008-04-16 16:10:00 Hey there. I was in a discussion with a friend about her lunch and she was discussing with some of her colleagues on whether eating fruit before or after a meal is more beneficial than the other. I told her that I remember reading somewhere that eating fruit a good 15 - 30 mins after a meal aids digestion. She said that she remembered someone saying to eat fruit before to help you feel full. This made me think for a second and went on to say that society now a days, doesn't know what good for them. You read about all kinds of shit online, see all types of ads on TV, either promoting or demoting products. I expressed this thought to her using a runner as an example. Doctors and what not say that it's beneficial to run, better circulation, good exercise. But, you also hear the opposite side Read more:Society
No title 2008-04-15 22:02:00 Hey there. Something odd happened yesterday. We left our dog, Odin, outside our house for the first time while we were at work. As we left in the morning, we saw him outside through our gate. When we got back home, HE WAS IN THE HOUSE!! We were like, WTF!!! As we walked through the house looking for an opening that he may have came in from, we found nothing. And the doors were locked and all windows closed. I joked with my wife that our dog can walk through walls. I walked around the outside of the house, looking for any way that he could've entered the house and found nothing... We found him outside, today... But we still can't get over the fact that he was in our house after we left him outside. It kinda freaked out my wife a bit.Keep an eye out for my "ghost dog", Odin. Unt
"Cube" of Death 2008-04-14 16:24:00 Hey there. No friends, I don't mean a killer crouton. lol I caught this flick during the weekend and I thought it was great. Maybe cause I'm just a freak when it comes to numbers. I thought the whole concept of being enclosed in a cube where certain rooms are traps was just too good to pass up. I wouldn't doubt it if this film, in some way, shape or form, had anything to do with the Saw films. And I love me some Saw. lolThe intro to the movie ended up raising some questions at the end of the movie. I'll tell you why at the end of this post. A man by the name of Alderson, I believe, wakes up in the cube. The cube has 6 small doors on each wall, which seem more like latches to me, and after opening a few and peeking inside, he decides to enter one of the adjacent rooms. After a brief moment,

Veoh TV 2008-04-03 22:14:00 Hey there. Veoh TV must be having some issues because I was trying to catch the remaining 5 episodes of the Amazing Nurse Nanako and no vids came out. Wondering if it's fate that doesn't want me to watch it. lol Until the screen flickers back on, later.
Deliverance 2008-04-03 15:44:00 His seeds of hate have been plantedThis emotion I know so wellHis spell that has me so enchantedAnd has me chained tightly to this cellHis words that so evoke meHas locked me in this tranceNevermore will I be allowed to beto give my soul it's final chanceHis swollen words and mystic smileHas taken it's effectWith shrieking vows full of vileI'm now just his puppetMother of grace, save me nowFrom his lord, the dark princeForgive my sins, please disallowAnd answer for my deliverance-Metallman
Ratatouille 2008-04-02 20:20:00 Hey there. Just got through watching this film with the kids and I must say, I enjoyed it very much. C'mon now, a cooking rat that interacts with humans? You don't see that everyday and you see plenty of crazy things out there in the world of animation. Far and beyond, my favorite line of the movie is, "I don't mean to be rude but... we're French" Oh man, I laughed my ass off on that one. So this story is basically a "find yourself" type flick. A rat named Remy strives to be a cook, but because he's a rat, his family ridicules him for being himself. The fact that he won't eat garbage disturbs his father but because Remy has a keen sense of smell, he's appointed as the "poison detector". Remy hates it, of course, and he regularly watches TV and reads a cookbook from his favorite chef, Gusta
Hell's Kitchen 2008-04-02 10:32:00 Hey there. Man, am I glad this show is back. I've watched the 3 previous seasons and I thought they were great. Funny how you get into a "cooking" show. lol But this Ramsey guy really knows how to turn on the fire. lol Season opener was last night. Great idea to have the chef disguise himself so that he can be among the contestants. So they are all chillin' on a bus talking shit and Ramsey is taking it all in. Some of the comments made included this one dude saying he's the "Black Gordon Ramsey" (which is a complete joke) and this other dude with this ridiculous hat saying he's gonna shove it into Ramsey. lol After the Jean Philippe welcomes them he asks them to put on their best Ramsey impressions. They all sucked. Then Ramsey revealed himself and half the contestants started Read more:Kitchen

April Fool's Day 2008-04-01 10:05:00 Hey there. April
is here. I read this article on the "10 best Hoaxes" and I laughed at the Burger King prank, advertising "left handed Whoppers" It reminded me of a time when my wife and I were eating at Subway, and me being the fat ass that I am, ordered the foot long sub. After eating half of the sandwich with my right hand, I grabbed the other half and started eating it with my left hand. My wife noticed this and asked, "Why are you eating that one with your left hand?" To which I replied, "Cause this side is the left handed side." She damn near choked on her sandwich, she was laughing so hard. lmao I was being serious. lol After a few minutes of laughter, she then grabbed my sandwich, turned it over and said, "There, now it's the right handed side." Good times, good times. lolHere is t Read more:April Fool
Blogs of the Month 2008-05-06 13:34:00 Hey there friends. As I was browsing some of the blogs in the Entrecard community, I noticed that some held contests and what not to entice people to comment thier sites or join their communities. I decided that I'll follow suit and reward some of my fellow Entrecard members by providing them with a free link for a full month. I will now have a section titled, "Blogs
of the Month
" where I will place a link and image to those friends that dropped the most cards on my site for the previous month. Any tie breakers will be decided by comments left on any of my posts. I will send a message to the top 5 so that they can provide a link to their site and image. You won't see any during the month of May since I joined Entrecard in the last week of April, so the first set of winners will be di
Restful Nights 2008-05-05 11:44:00 Hey there. This weekend, we slept well. Pretty damn well. Our little one (turning 3 July 4th) has been sleeping in our bed since forever and she moves, kicks, and turns all night long, leaving us restless and tired as hell in the morning. My wife receives these Emails from Baby Center. She signed up for the newsletter a few years back when we were pregnant. She used to send those Emails to me on a weekly basis, to read up on tips and what not to help care with the baby. Well, she sent one a few weeks back and said, it's been awhile since I sent this to you. After we looked it over, there was a tip on how to get your little one to sleep in their own bed. Our eyes lit up. lol We went ahead and decided to go for it. BC (Baby Center) said that you should move in her bed to your roo
Cash Crate 2008-05-07 17:29:00 Hey there friends. On my quest to make a few extra bucks online, I stumbled upon Cashcrate.com . So far so good.

Fried Guitar Hero, Please 2008-05-07 13:19:00 Hey there. This morning, my boy made me and my wife laugh our asses off. Since we're coming in to work later than usual, we are dropping off the kids at school this week. Well, this morning, as I pulled in front of the school, I got out to walk them across the street. As I was telling them to have a good day and be productive and what not, my boy turns and says to me, "I always mess up on the beginning of Raining Blood." I kinda gave him a brief look of disbelief and then started laughing. I got in the car and told my wife and we both started laughing. She says that the boy has Guitar
Hero fried in his brain. lol Especially, if I'm over here telling him to have a good day, and out comes a comment about Guitar Hero. Man, that was classic. Ranks right up there with my daughter saying that wh Read more:Fried
