Please let there be more. I am in love with everything about this game. The music! The fighting system! The characters! The dialogue (eg "Are you high?" I laughed for like 30 minutes.)

Newfoundland and Labrador... not involved
I got a DS and this game for Christmas. Just an FYI, this game is epicly awesome.
Please let there be more. I am in love with everything about this game. The music! The fighting system! The characters! The dialogue (eg "Are you high?" I laughed for like 30 minutes.)

Got Nothing to Say? Fix it Bastardo!
So what the fux is going on with me you might ask? Well nothing of course. I'm stuck in yet another dead end job. I've been upgraded to useless electronics peddler. I must admit I rather enjoy answering questions about video games (even if I can barely get myself to play them lately), though most of the questions are of the very basic variety. Most often asked? "Do you have Wiis?" No fuck off you white trash wanker.
Before this becomes yet another post in which I constantly bitch about my shitty, dead end job I'll change the pace.
I still can't write. I don't know why I can't write. When I have a good idea, or am in a creative mood I don't get going. Sadly it's very easy for me to lose my creative or productive moods. I simply don't seem to have enough time. It's all about perception, however. I don't think I have time, so in the end I don't do shit. I either have ADD or I'm just a dumbshit. And I don't think I'm a dumbshit.
Changing the subject yet again, let's talk about soccer!
The Good - Liverpool remain on top of the Premiership despite opening the door for Chelsea so many times. Thank god for Chelsea botching the job at every opportunity. It's been damn near TWENTY years since the last English championship for one of the greatest teams of all time. And with a team so epicly amazing, there's no reason that they should screw this up. Liverpool needs to keep form through the second half of the season! This is a championship caliber team, it CAN be done. Let's pray Chelsea fumbles and Man United don't quite hit their stride. And FUCK Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Bad -Manchester United wins the Club World Cup. Let me just say, blah. It should've been Gamba. Eventually it UEFA or CONMEBOL won't win this damn thing, but sadly this wasn't the year. Adelaide or Gamba would've been cool to win. I wouldn't have even complained about Pachuca. It's single elimination, one game, and so few teams. One of these years, the underdogs will win. Kashima Antlers in 09? I certainly think so!
The Whatever - David Beckham going to AC Milan. Who cares? AC Milan have a powerhouse team, despite underperforming at the moment. I don't think that Beckham going to AC will do much more than increasea revenues. If the man can fill out the stadiums in the US, then he can certainly do that much in Italy. Will he rise to the challenge and help AC get to the top of the table? Probably not. Will he make an impact on a star studded roster? Probably not. Will he bring in some money and wayward Italian fans? More than likely.

Perfectly Perfunctuous Pliance of Pillars
It's been seemingly a long time since I've studied history in an official format. I haven't been forced to learn knowledge of the past since late 2006. Even so, I still get the time here and again to delve into the lives that have long since ended. The world as we live in it today was formed by those people that lived oh so long ago. It is their actions and remnants that interest me so greatly.
While I wish I had been born in a time when the exploration and arguments of the past were so much more alive. A time when the ruins of long dead civilizations were known only to the local inhabitants. History wasn't as easily accesible to the common man, and one had to become an adventurer in order to discover even the most miniscule of fact. That would have been an incredible life to have led. Adventurer. Explorer. Ruins chaser. In these modern times everything can be attained through the internet, a library, or the minds of the multitude of others that have seen these places. After all, these relics of the past are little more than a comfortable flight away. And all the facts that were there to be learned have already been studied in depth by generations of scholars. The most important details have already been rediscovered.
Going to any of these monuments of ancient civilization is still possible, to be sure, but the capacity in which it is done has changed. Any of these places are now little more than tourist destinations. Khaki shorts wearing yahoos with cameras around their necks and some "authentic" locally produced goods in their satchels snap pictures in front of long dead sacred temples. Oh yes, this is truely a great age of which to be a part.
Sadly without a time machine it would be impossible to return to an era where exploring history meant so much more. And if I had a time machine, why the hell would I go to an era and explore ruins when I could just visit these ancient cultures?!

A Franciscan Monk Once Said...
Winter blazes a path again.
BabyKitty bats at the christmas tree.
Silas stares at you with annoyed eyes.
Tires slide.
Cold invades your very soul.
Night becomes day through snow.
It's winter again bitches, bundle up.

The Wrath of Blazened
It's winter out. It is so... very... winter. The cold hit not too long ago. Right after the cold came the snow. And then the snow came again. Where I live doesn't hold heat so well which leads to many cold days for me. Luckily I don't mind bundling up. What I don't like is winter!
It's white and bleak and cold. There's no green! There's no open access to the outdoors because of the snow! My window is always closed because of the cold! I want to punch winter right in it's ancient face. And then give it a quick knee to the crotch to have him reeling over, forcing spring to jump right into action.
Everybody knows winter is evil. It was created by Adolf Hitler's Nazi scientists in 1937 as a means to force Poland into capitulation. His scientists use orphan souls to power a giant drill that destroyed the space/time fabric and created a previously unheard of season. Prior to 1937 autumn led directly to spring, which was also the reason that the Polish were so happy all the time. This angered Hitler, one thing led to another, and the United States dropped an atom bomb on the Empire of Japan.
Just remember, winter is eeeeeeevil.

Art of the Underachiever
When I was a younger kid I really loved reading comic books. There was a friend of the family that worked at Mr. Paperback and used to bring me around 30 "acquired" comic books. No UPC so it was kinda sketchy, but I was a kid and didn't question free comic books. It's something that a lot of kids get into because they are targeted to that immature mindset. Well guess what, cabrone, I still have an immature mindset. So last year I stumbled upon torrents of what was essentially every comic released in that week. And these were put out weekly. So for a while I was checking those out to see what comics were like nowadays. There was a lot that was the same, but also a lot that had changed.
While I'll never be the guy that gets insanely obsessed with comic books, I feel that there is a certain amount of guilty pleasure to be taken in their reading. I won't endlessly debate the insignificant details of every single page. I won't argue over who would win a battle. I won't argue over what the author or director was trying to achieve. I'm simply going to enjoy them for what they are.
In the past year I've discovered a lot of really cool comic book series' that I weeded out of the generic crap. Some are finished, and I've read the entire run. Some are ongoing and I check out the latest issue whenever possible. The kid in me is delighted that such an old hobby has come back to the surface to be indulged in ocassionally. It's just a tiny bit of life nostalgia, and it makes me feel... comfortable perhaps?
Here is a list of series that I have picked up and started following in the past year.

The Blasting of Site 551
I went out shopping with The Ashes today, and it was quite nice. It was one of those pleasant yet uneventful day. And it convinced me that there are things I want to buy! Things! Materialism! Wahoo Dashdeleven!
Okay, seriously though. I like trinkets and I saw quite a few that I would like to have purchased. And books. And games that I didn't even know were out yet! Oh, and there was this exquisite recreation of three historical figures made entirely out of bacon and processed cheese! There was Stalin with a licorice mustache, Nelson Mandela with a hint of cacao, and Buddy Holly post accident made from ground beef.
I like Fallout 3. It makes me happy and not just in my pants. I wish I could live in the blasted wastelands of Washington DC. Of course I've got plenty to say about Post-Apocalypitica which I'll cover later. And LEGOs. And that degrading pinnacle of modern society named Miley Cyrus.

Orange is the New Wave
A monk approached me on the street the other day. He asked me "Do you know the way to San Jose?"
I punched him in the forehead. I think he found enlightenment.

Invasion Force Number ONE!!

I think they were very confused and angrier than thirty of the hairiest, swishiest Danish sailors. However...

Here's how it really went down. But if she gets to take pictures of happy Japos, I get to take pictures of happy Japos. Hers is for them, and mine is for us! Fair trade, soul for a soul so to speak.

Craziness of Lord Bowel-Rempieax
As a recentish fan of soccer, I never had a single team that I grew up loving. This has led to me being a fan of many, many teams in every nation in which I have even a small bit of knowledge.
Topmost of all, however, is my complete and utter loyalty to Liverpool as my favorite club. The team is essentially the reason that I started loving soccer. I've passionately followed the team for three years now. I know I'll be a fan as long as I live.
Now for the teams which I like from other parts of the world. Sometimes it's the name, sometimes it's the colors, sometimes it's because I played as the team in Football Manager. Sometimes it's just because they are a great team with great fans and a winning spirit.
SCOTLAND - Celtic
ITALY - Palermo, Inter Milan
SPAIN - Barcelona
NETHERLANDS - Feyenoord, ADO Den Haag
DENMARK - FC Copenhagen
SWEDEN - Djurgardens
FRANCE - Paris Saint-Germain, Saint Etienne
BRAZIL - Grêmio, Fluminese, Sampaio Correa
ARGENTINA - Boca Juniors
MEXICO - Club America
ENGLAND - Crystal Palace, Rushden & Diamonds, Brentford
UNITED STATES - New England Revolution
GERMANY - Leverkusen, Hertha BSC
UKRAINE - Shakhtar Donetsk
TURKEY - Fenerbahçe
HUNGARY - Ferencvaros
FINLAND - Tampere United
MOLDOVA - Sheriff Tiraspol
JAPAN - Shimizu S-Pulse
CHINA - Wuhan (still around?)
SOUTH KOREA - Chunnam
AUSTRALIA - Perth Glory
GHANA - Hearts of Oak
SOUTH AFRICA - Kaizer Chiefs
