So everyone’s doing it. I decided to do it too. If it was a bridge I guess I was in line to jump off of it. Anyways. Here’s the lightbox plugin test.
I took this one a few weeks ago. Next time I’m sure it will be snowing instead of raining.

So here are a few thoughts on Gears of War.
I was able to get a copy via Block Buster. I got home sat down with my friend and started playing split screen. (Don’t have a paid live account.)
I have to say I was disappointed and spouted out “LAME SAUCE” many times because of the opening tutorial. Apparently even after the mandatory update the game made us do after inserting the disk for the first time, there was still a few glitches. We were stuck in a room doing nothing after 5 minutes of the start. We waited, ran around, shot everything, but nothing helped. When pushing the ‘Y’ button the goal was always the same. Some door that didn’t open. After 15 minutes of running around, going back to the beginning of the level and walking all the way back the game decided to move and the AI started cutting through the door to come get us.
Second glitch happened after we came across the Galom like monsters that crawl on the ceiling. We killed them in a hurry and then waited again for NOTHING. We ran around but nothing happened. This time it only took about 5 minutes.
NOW for the GOOD.
Day 2 of playing. We decide to turn up the brightness. HOLLY COW, now we could see the graphics. Up to this point, I was disappointed by the graphics because the game by default sets it’s brightnessTOO DARK to see the attention to detail that was put in. After turning the brightness up a new respect came to the game. Wow. Looks good. Made the whole game play feel better. Now most people say FUN > GRAPHICS. This game FUN == GRAPHICS. When you see the swarm of black things, (they look like the things from the movie “Pitch Black”) you almost have to excuse yourself to the bathroom.
Overall, Good looking game, good gameplay.
I think the RSS is up and running again. I was going to ask anyone to send me a message if the RSS is not working for them, but I guess if its not working you won’t be reading this.
The problem came in when transferring over to the new host. The old database used a different character set than the new one, and during the transition, crazy stuff happened. The result was a corrupted RSS feed that most readers ignored and or did not read correctly.

I just had to say WOOT!!!
Can’t wait to get me a new computer a new OS and a new Office program.
Its been a long time comming, and even if it is hard to use, sucks, or works really well, I’m just ready for a change. I like my XP, 2k, and all other OS’s but I’m up for a new challenge to learn and figure out what new quirks there might be in the new OS.
This is a Jurassic Park quote but goes well with what is happening tonight. I am transferring over my websites, domains, and what-nots to a new server. E-mail will be down for some time, but this is the last post until the new system gets up and running.
I’ve had enough of 1and1. They were great when they started but they are WAY too slow. I have been getting too many complaints of my gallery running slow. The search has now started for me. I would use chouse’s server, but I use 20gigs already and need lots of space.
So the Important things that I’m looking for are the following:
So far I have made a list of the following sites:
If anyone else has ideas, throw them my way.
