Well now, on Tuesday of this week (05/Dec/06) I did gets me my new phone. And yes, its a doozey. :-) Admittedly, the phone was officially released by the manufacturer back in December 05, and it was first seen on the market in January/February of 06. However, even though the phone is now a year…
Guild Wars: Nightfall review
Dec 2nd
So news for today is that Guild Wars: Factions has won the DEMMX Multiplayer Game of the Year award. Which is good because it was up against Second Life and D&DO. While I have never played Dungeons & Dragons Online, I am very intimately familiar with both Second Life and Guild Wars and if SL…
Immature Lies!
Dec 2nd
You Are Somewhat Mature You definitely act like an adult sometimes, but a big part of you is still a kid at heart. While your immature side is definitely fun, you’re going to have to grow up sooner or later. Are You Immature? HAHAHAHA. I’d dispute that. As I tell everyone, I’m still 17, but…

You Are 32% Nerdy You’re a little nerdy, but no one would ever call you a nerd. You sometimes get into nerdy things, but only after they’ve become a part of mainstream culture. How Nerdy Are You? This goes to show, I’m a geek, not a nerd ;-) Tags: meme, blogthings, nerdy
The Beast Within
Nov 29th
I don’t know many people that don’t enjoy a nice steak or other form of bovine dish. The only vegetarians I knew were while I was working at Datacom and for the most part, because I like meat, we didn’t often eat together for lunch or at company functions. Can’t blame them. I guess anyone…

The number of “spam” messages has tripled since June and now accounts for as many as nine out of 10 e-mails sent worldwide, according to U.S. email security company Postini.…
Adowable Girl, Cute Wii, BAD Language
Nov 28th
I think Daddy should watch his language when he’s playing video games ;-) I’m loving hearing the stories of people who are finding out there are muscles they didn’t even know existed in their body thanks to the Wii and its new controllers. I love the idea or an aerobics game for the Wii. Couch…
Barron’s says Google Overpriced – Duh!
Nov 27th
Back in January 2006 I made some interesting predictions about Google and their stock price. While they didn’t really pan out, they did double their over all value, even if their share price is only double what it was 18 months ago. ;-) Well, now it seems some people are starting to get a little…
