I played around with YourSpins.com today and made a remix of Lift Me Up by Moby. This site allows you to remix only a few tracks that support it’s required format. You can however remix on the web with thier flash application (the one I used) or as a plugin for Windows Media Player (I have not tried this [...]

Fans of QuickSilver that use Windows rejoice.
May 31st, 2006 · No Comments
Fans of Quicksilver on the Mac know how fantastic that app is. Quick access to apps, documents and macros to perform all types of functions all packaged into one app. It’s the first thing I install when setting up my Mac. But alas there isn’t anything as seemless or as good looking for Windows . [...]
Table Tennis Redux
May 31st, 2006 · No Comments
So Frank came over for the ending (or is it?) of the Great Grill Escapade and we had the inaugural first game of Table Tennis. I hooked it up to the projector to take full advantage of the HD resolution that my XBox360 outputs. After about 3 hours and 2 loses I can say that [...]

Frank commented that he still has a few apps that he uses on his PC that prevents him from completely switching to the Mac as his everyday machine.
Since I own one, I can’t say these are “preventing” me, but I can say they’re preventing me from ditching my windows box:
Newsbin Pro
Ultraedit
Topstyle
The assorted low-level DVD [...]
X3: Thank god it’s the last one.
May 30th, 2006 · No Comments
Saw X3 over the weekend. Blech! Believe everything you read about it in the reviews. Here, check out Rotten Tomato’s listing. It was so disjointed that you almost feel like your reading the comic and you miss a few months in a year long run but you decide to read it anyway.
There are a [...]
It’s not my fault.

Looks like Brent will be joining the growing legion of Mac owner’s that I know. I just want to state for the record that I no way influenced this purchase by showing off my MacBook.
You guessed it, I am also no capable of running Universal Binaries too. I ended up selling my PowerBook to [...]
The Great Grill Escapade.
May 26th, 2006 · No Comments
Finally after 2 months of pulling my hair out, I have a working grill. No thanks to BBQ Galore (who I will not link too).
A little background, one of the great things about the new house is that we now have a deck. Having a deck also means that we have to have a [...]
If the first trailer didn’t make you wanna see Superman.
May 24th, 2006 · No Comments
Gotta give a shout out to Carl “Whatchu Talkin’ bout” Willis for pointing me towards what is a shorter version (or maybe the UK version) of the Superman Returns trailer. This is some of the same footage but the end of the trailer is so f’n huge I can’t tell you about it. It must [...]
I don’t care what you say, I think this game will rock.

Regardless of what you may think, this time next week I will be owning a copy of Rockstar Presents: Table Tennis. I can’t believe more people are excited by this game. The sheer simplicity of it’s premise is enough for me.
Think about it, if Rockstar can produce a totally engaging product like Grand Theft [...]

College Drinking.
May 17th, 2006 · No Comments
So Jessi’s sister Jenn graduated this past weekend from Viriginia Tech (yeah she’s a castrated turkey also). Well not completely graduated as she still has a few summer courses she needs to wrap up. But regardless she walked across the stage and got her fake cardboard diploma. Well that was after they added her to the [...]
Over the Hedge
May 16th, 2006 · No Comments
So Jessi and I scored some free tix for an advance screening of Over The Hedge. It’s a new flick from Dreamworks and the crew that did Shrek and Madagascar.
From imdb:
Traveling raccoon con artist, RJ (Willis), arrives in a woods outside a human city in the Midwest, excited about the wonders that living near [...]

So I’ve seemed to have caught the plague this morning. I woke up at 5:30am huffing and trying to catch my breath. It took a second to orient myself and check if I still had a nose on my face. I seriously couldn’t breath through my nose. It felt like a clamp was put on [...]
Wii all scream for ice scream And and XBox 360 Update.
May 10th, 2006 · No Comments
The Nintendo press conference was the one I was really waiting for. Yeah the PS3 price and delivery announcement was nice but seriously, I really wanted to find out more about Wii.
With that said, we really didn’t find out any really juicy tales but we did see some incredible demonstrations of the Wii and the [...]

Playstation 3: Start saving your money now. [UPDATE]
May 9th, 2006 · 2 Comments
Just finished watching the marathon Sony E3 Press Conference. So what did we learn?
The worldwide launch will be in November. Speaking of November, why is it always November for launching new consoles? At what point did the game industry decide this would be a good time for consoles to launch?
The PS3 will come in two [...]

So Friday, Jessi and I decided to bounce out early and grab some food at Taste of Saigon. It was okay, got some tofu and veggies. Instead of heading back to work we went and checked out Mission Impossible 3.
**** Possible Spoiler **** You have been warned ****
Now let me be honest. The only [...]
