Goodbye 30boxes, Hello Google Calendar

Monday, April 17, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Just a short announcement that I have given up on 30 Boxes's flaws, and now use Google Calendar.  They E-mail a daily agenda to you every morning with that day's events, and you can easily share and view public calendars.

My calendar feed has changed accordingly.

Never a dull moment with WOW

Monday, April 17, 2006 · 2 Comments

This video comes from some assholes on a WOW PvP server.

The story goes, this one guy from some guild died IRL, and he was still online, or someone logged on as him, so they could have an online funeral in WOW (I've been to weddings in Ragnarok Online, but a funeral?). Anyways, whatever forum it was, the guild posted on it to invite people to pay their respects to the guys character.

Well the Serenity Now guild payed their respects by destroying everyone in attendance to the funeral, and filmed it.

Sure it was an asshole thing to do, but you can't help but think its funny. If I ever got into WOW, I always thought I would go with a non PvP server, just cause I always got pissed off at global PvP in RO, but it seems the PvP servers are always hopping, either bad or good.

Red Bull gives you w-i-i-iiings!!

Saturday, April 15, 2006 · Leave a Comment

Last night, Oh Man!

Lets start at the beginning.  I had some lunch in the middle of the day, and to drink, i went out into the garage to get a soda, when i saw my case of Red Bull from the end of the fall semester.  So i said to myself "Whoa, its been a while, so why not?"  I ended up saying the same question to myself at around 8pm when mike came over.

And it wasn't even a placebo effect.  Like the first few times you drink Red Bull, you expect to feel like "WIIIIINGS!!!"  but you don't.  But, when you drink 2 without even thinking about it, you DO get that feeling, and it doesn't even hit you at first.  I think it hit me when i started SINGING the guitar solo to Metallica – Master of puppets, when I said "HOLY SHIT!  I'm Hyper LOL"

I'm pretty sure i was really freaking annoying to Dave, Mike, And everyone on Halo 2 last night lmao.  So I'm sorry guys.  And I'm pretty sure the words "I'm gayer than springtime tonight" came out of my mouth.  I'd hate to see what 2 red Bulls and some alcohol would do to me (GEEZE!!)  lol. 

But something about a 5 piece chicken nugget from wendy's made me crash.  and at around one, after listening to Mitch Headburg, everyone left, and i calmed down.  So i played Big Team Battle until about 4am, watch south park, and went to bed.

Now i have to do my calculus project today.  Almost the end!!!  And I need to call ticketmaster about my tickets they never gave me soon, lol.

I Really hope they put these on TV or something. This is by far my favorite.

I was RIGHT! Everyone has a blog!

You probably think I’m about to bust on our players’ IQs. I don’t do that. I don’t think the people who come to face me are stupider than I am. Everyone is stupider than I am so there really isn’t a point in singling out the contestants.

But it’s not really about your IQ on Deal or No Deal. It’s about mental fortitude and character. If you think you can apply logic on our stage, good luck.

It’s all about emotion, and that’s why my job can be so easy. When you’re cracking I can see it. When you’re vulnerable, I’ll go for your throat.

I love my job.

Even the banker from Deal or No Deal
