This past weekend we took a few days off and went up to Halifax. This was the first trip we’ve been on since getting an iPhone and I’ve gotta say that little gadget sure saved us a lot of time and gas. Normally I can find the places I’m looking for, eventually. Since we’re not [...]
Yes! I’m behind the times! I just started playing Fable II a few days ago, my attempt to clear something off my game shelf that’s been sitting there for a loooong time. I’m finding it pretty fun so far, but as I’ve heard from other people, the game seems to be pretty short if you [...]
I’ve been looking to replace the Sony Bravia audio system I have in the living room. I liked it for a while because it matches my TV and they cooperate nicely, but now I’m finding that the sound just isn’t as good as it could be, and when playing music games the delay is very [...]
I finished off Two Worlds 2 about a week ago and only have 5 achievements left to get. 3 of those are the multiplayer ones which seem like they’ll be the hardest to finish off since there doesn’t seem to be many games in my level range. I rolled up a fresh level 1 and [...]
Saw the Game on Xbox 360 turned out to be better than I expected. It played like the movies for the most part, where you need to figure out puzzles to save/kill people and stay alive yourself. It was also a pretty easy 1000 gamerscore points, the hardest most frustrating part achievement was getting the [...]
I buy and sell things at my business. It is not a pawn shop business though, but every week, at least once, someone asks if they can pawn something. I stick with the things I know. Movies, video games, music, computers and accessories. People try to sell me jewelry, but I don’t know enough about [...]
I’m around 35 hours into it now and have been in chapter 3 for a little while now, just killed a demon priest guy so I think I’m nearing the end. It’s been a fun ride, and I’ve still got a bunch of multiplayer stuff to do if I want to get the achievements. And [...]
I’ve managed to complete a playset of Dominus of Fealty and have been working on a “What’s yours is mine” deck. At first I was going to use sac outlets to just get rid of the stolen items, but then I re-read Bazaar Trader and decided to go with a steal & keep angle instead. [...]
Tonight I’m taking part in my first draft in MTGO. After looking through the tournament types I finally settled on an M10 Swiss draft. This way I get to play all 3 rounds whether I win or lose, and at the end I win a booster pack for each match that I won. Plus I [...]
That’s what I titled my most recent Magic deck in MTGO. You Gonna Use That Land?. It’s a blue/green land wrecker deck. Green stuff destroys it, blue stuff turns it into islands or causes pain when you tap it. I keep having mana problems of my own with it though despite having 20 lands in [...]
I tried to bling up my cafe in Cafe World on facebook but for some reason it won’t let me buy any more solid gold stoves! I have 4 or 5 that I bought a long time ago but now when I try to buy more they’re all greyed out. I can buy all the [...]
Change can be a good thing. Too much change is typically a bad thing. Unless it’s the clinky clink type of change you find in your pocket at the end of every day and throw it into a can or bottle and forget about it. Do this on a daily basis and eventually you’ll look [...]
Woot! Today I had a nice little check in the mail, just shy of $2000. It was a rebate for insurance premiums I had paid over the last 15 years for a cancer policy. It was one of their selling points when I took the policy, if I don’t make any claims on it in [...]
I got a PS3 a couple months back but so far I still don’t have many games for it. While the system -is- good, basically the same as the XBox 360 when it comes to graphics and sound, I don’t like the controller as much. One place where the PS3 controller really shines though is [...]
