For all of you yahoos out there that said playing video games would get you nowhere... My friend S went out last night playing Golden T (it's a golf video game) anyway by the end of the night he had made about $4000.00. Yes that is $4K! All of the T machines are networked together and talk back to the manufacturer of the game. To get more play they offer money shots where you can pay an extra buck to take a shot a hole in one. Make it and win a prize... the prize last night $1000. Now this is not an easy shot but it is makable, once someone wins on a machine though, that machine is done and will not offer it again. So S and his friend went from bar to bar last night playing to win. Good for him!
Hey guess what back in the 70's Arnold was having sex ... and this is important today because why?
Someone has got a himself in a fit about iTunes... and He's RIGHT!
Dream job... what is your dream job... the more I think about it, money aside I'd ike to be a set dresser, or maybe a Disney Imagineer! I love building illusionary stuff for Halloween so it seems like a natural... I'd have to work computers in there somehow though... anyway look what the latest imagineering feat is... Walking 2 legged dinosaur!
Speaking of Halloween! this Zombie Generator is quite cool! I've been screwing with this all day!
Worms worms worms! ... new stuff everyday! update those DAT files... install that Firewall!
Your friend "S" must be really cool. I want to party with that dude! Thanks for the props. BTW, I got one check for $3K and the other one is on the way.
Well we watched LOTR-TTT last night and hooobaby it was guud! It's amazing the amount of effort that went in to this project. They filmed all three films in one shot and they did so with the knowledge the computer software to do the CGI the movie was relying on was not yet invented! All in all a huge risk that paid off in aces!
Since we are talking movies... did you here they are redoing Charlie and Chocolate Factory? Tim Burton directing and rumored to play Wonka... Johnny Depp or Christopher Walken!
Also speaking of movies... the nex trailer for Matrix Revolutions came out yesterday! See it here! You know hwat a Matrix nut I am, I cannot wait!
Since it's a movie kind of day... Have you seen the trailer for Kate Beckinsale's new flick? It's movie about Vampires Vs. Werewolves! done in style simlar to Blade! Underworld
Who's Kate Beckinsale? Well I fell for her in Serendipity but she was also in Pearl Harbor... Now if we could only get her, Natalie Portman and Keira Knightly together... boy howdy I don't care how bad that movie is, it almost like that fighting girls beer commercial...I digress...
Speaking of Blade... It looks as if there will be a 3rd installment in the series. Blade - Trinity
Sequel Sequel Sequel, Remake, Comic Book Conversion! Has hollywood run out of original ideas? It appears so... Dirty Dancing 2 WTF! Did this need a sequel?
I saw a poster for Scooby Doo 2 last time I was at the theater! ugghhh! On the other hand in the non-original category falls ...The Haunted Mansion which after Pirate of the Caribbean I am looking more and more forward to!
LOTR TTT comes out on DVD today. That means don't be calling me tonight and interupting me while I'm watching my movie. For those who have not seen it, you're missing out go get it!
Do you hate parallel parking? I remember that was the most feared part of the driving test! Well Toyota may put an end to that fear... 1st self parking car
Why is Dog is man's best friend but Diamonds are a girl's best friend? Well the cost of the 2 just got radicaly closer! $100 real diamonds...
We've all heard the naked woman yoga in the park story by now... wonder what all the fuss was about? TSG has her mug shot ... that might clear up some of questions!
Drink your lizard spit and lose some weight now...WTF!
Have you ever seen Ultimate Fighting? The supposedly no rules fighting. Well over the years there have been some rules added like freaking time limits yuk! Anyway there have always been those that said "Those guys wouldn't stand a chance against a real boxer like Tyson!" well guess what! we might get to find out! ... I'll pay for that one!
It no secret I'm a child of the 80s... right now I've got this book that has tons of recognizable lines from 80s movies so I thought I might close with one every now and then... if you know what movie it was from leave us a comment so the rest of the world will too...
Just when I thought it was safe... I was attacked by a rabbit! ... "I fart in your general direction" ... we were watching I love the 70s this weekend and I could not help myself, I ran right out and bought Monty Python Quest for the Holy Grail. THAT IS A DAMN FUNNY MOVIE!!!!!
I'm off to see the 'stros & Cubs tonight... should be fun!
Ok this site is a huge 2.5M download, but once there! WOW! The animation is a testament to how far Flash has come as a medium. NeoStream is a must visit. Be sure you smake the little man around some when the menu comes up!
Do you write like a girl? Gender Genie can predict what sex you are just from how you write... errr type. It guessed correctly for me.
Friday was Dade's last feee day before school starts so I let him pick where and what for the day. In order... Lunch at Red Robin, Blacklight Golf at Putting Edge, followed by Blacklight Bowling at Jillians, then Pirates of the Caribbean(again) at the Marqu*e, followed by Air Hockey and games at Jillians, next came Ice Cream at Stone Creamery, then Bumper Boats at Funwerks followed by Miniture Golf at Funwerks... followed by daddy's empty wallet! No really it wasn't that bad and boy howdy did we have some fun that day!
Did you know they had to edit Neil Armstrongs first words from the moon?!?! Neither did I! One small f'in...
We all watched as yet again NY and others were the center of the world's attention with the recent blackouts. Here is one photographers view on this event.See it from space BEFORE and AFTER.
WE've all heard about the worm... did you know those that have not cleaned their machines will start a DOS attack on MS on Saturday? Read what MS is doing to prepare.
There is a new cool toy over at Thinkgeek... The Floating CID Display displays the CID info kinda in a floating cool looking spheroid thingy! Now if they would hook it up to USB and incorporate email and IM into it... well then you'd have a product!
You know it's getting to be only us Texans care about this but those chicken Dems are gonna get theirs in the end... Our Gov has decided to call special session after special session until they give in and come back. GOOD!
We've all been blasted by a good 'ol fart every now and then... well what do you think a couple of ton whale fart smells like? Some scientist found out! ... hmmm I think he's been eating fish...
Finally ... how about a piece of eye candy... simply stunning pieces here!
have a great weekend...

Fractals are cool... I've always had a thing for fractals, I don't know why...
frac·tal n. A fractal is a rough or fragmented
geometric shape that can be subdivided in parts, each of which is (at least approximately) a smaller copy of the whole. Fractals are generally self-similar (bits look like the whole) and independent of scale (they look similar, no matter how close you zoom in).
When you look at these fractals remember that they were generated by math! PLaying with fractal software can be entertaining as well...there is some linked from that page...
If you have heard the the new Texans' fight song then you know why we banish that POS from the face of the earth! Please go here and vote to get rid of it! arf!
