So last night I decided to pop into EQ2 and join ‘raid night’, we had 5 people online, but no tank since most of them were playing alts. I don’t have any alts high enough so I just went with Kal. They were taking the alts through Mistmoore Catacombs to finish up some quests and [...]
I tend to eat a lot of chicken, I’ve never been much of a steak person. It’s hard to get a steak just right, I only like them when they’re nice and tender. That’s the great part about chicken, pretty much any way you cook it, it’s always good. Fried chicken, chicken rice, chicken fried [...]
I got lucky and saw Rock Band Special Edition in stock at one of the local stores today so I grabbed one for the 360. Now I’m trying to decide what I should do with it. I’d like to just keep it, but having trouble trying to convince myself (and the wife) that $179 is [...]
I hate moving, and I’m sure most people feel the same way I do. Packing and unpacking, moving heavy furniture, cleaning both the old house and the new one, changing addresses and the list goes on and on. Thankfully, hiring professional movers can relieve some of the stress associated with moving and the Movers Directory [...]
What little time I spend in Norrath lately always seems to end up being spent playing alts. One of the reasons for this is that a buddy of mine just came back to the game after a 3 year break. He tried it when it first came out but quickly decided he didn’t like it. [...]
A neat little device that would be of use to a lot of people are these USB room temperature sensors. It will monitor the temperature in the room and send out email alerts if the temperature changes above or below your specified range. Using a USB extension cord would allow you to monitor the temp [...]
I often wonder what the big attraction is with Poker these days. Tournaments are broadcast on TV and it seems like nearly every computer that I work on lately has some form of online poker software installed on it. Yesterday one of my buddies sent me a link to the PurePlay Poker website. It seemed [...]
For the home chefs out there that are just a little too rigid when following a recipe, the digital kitchen scale will make sure you’ve got just the right amount of meat measured out (or anything else that needs a certain weight of ingredients). I normally just buy whichever package is closest to what I [...]
Got a few things on the go at the moment but nothing overly new that I haven’t already mentioned at least once. EverQuest 2 is still the only thing I’m playing on the computer although I’ve been slacking quite a bit lately. I did finish up the War and Wardrobe HQ this week though, and [...]
Any night that we have a full group going someone has to fire up Ventrilo just to make things easier. Talking instead of typing certainly speeds things up, but the problem we tend to run into is that once you get around 8 to 10 people on a cable connection, the voice quality starts to [...]
Tried this out at a friend’s house the other day, he wasn’t lucky enough to find the limited edition though, just the game itself, so we were limited to playing guitars only. The game itself is fun and a little different than Guitar Hero, although the basic play mechanic is the same. Notes come at [...]
Singer/song writer Alisa Apps recently admitted that she sucks her thumb but is trying to stop. The video she posted looks more like a ploy for attention rather than an actual confession of some ‘dark secret’. I can’t say as I have any secret vices of my own really, just typical stuff like eating chocolate [...]
I just finished watching this action movie called Shoot ‘em Up, and it definitely lives up to it’s name. Guns galore, crazy stunts and bullets flying almost non-stop in this hard to swallow plot revolving around a baby that must be protected by a carrot obsessed gunman. But this is a movie, not real life, [...]
Bomberman Act Zero has got to be the worst game I’ve played yet on the XBox 360. I think even sports games would be more fun (and I hate sports games). Hell, getting your colon cleansed would probably be more fun than this game. I have fond memories of the old Bomberman on the original [...]
