It was my birthday on Wednesday…

Friday, October 10th, 2008

I turned 27 on the 8th. What do you think of that, huh? Let’s see what I got… some cash, a watch, a couple days earlier I got DQ4 for the DS so I guess that counts in there sort of, and a TI-89 for school. Yeah, I went back to school this year. I suppose I never mentioned that. Oh well. The TI-89 has been of great usefulness for me and stuff and I like it. DQ4 has been fun. The ridiculous puns on the enemy names are pretty amusing. Um, yeah! That’s it for me for today, cya.

English Debate 2008

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

So yeah, I’m here to rant about what I think about the election… The Canadian one, not the American one, although I’ve got opinions on that too… I just watched the English debate last night. I missed the French one… oh well… So I’m going to rant about the each leader and what I think of how they did and stuff. (more…)

Ah, life…

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008

I haven’t updated or made any new Fables in the last few weeks… Life’s been kind of busy for me I guess so I haven’t had much time to do anything. (more…)

Super Dodgeball and June Bugs

Saturday, June 7th, 2008

It’s that time of year again. Oh yes, the June bugs are in season. Alan used to like crunching these fat critters up with his teeth when he was a kid, but I’ve never liked them much myself. (more…)

My GI Joe Haul!

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

I got a few 25th Anniversary GI Joe figures on the weekend. It’s pretty rare to see them in stores around here so when I see them I usually pick one up, but this time there were actually quite a few good ones there. I got 1986 Roadblock, Cobra Commander with MASS crystals, and a Viper. (more…)

Happy 11th Birthday

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

Well, today marks the 11th year since I first uploaded The Spoony Bard onto it’s own little spot on Geocities. (more…)

Pretty funny

Monday, May 26th, 2008

It’s pretty funny. I was reading a bunch of old news posts while I was importing them to the new site. It actually brought a whole bunch of memories back from days gone by… not that I’d ever be the type of person to get nostalgic or anything… No, never! Is it weird that it bugs me that I’m missing the news from 2002? Do I really need to look at another year’s worth of cryptic, non-descriptive updates? Oh well.

mario kart wii

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

ok, so i got mario kart wii on friday. i honestly wasn’t sure about the steering wheel. i thought i would just plug in my classic controller and play it oldskewl but i figured since it was there i’d give the wheel a try. it’s actually pretty darn fun. i’m not sure if i play better with or without it as i’ve only plowed through 50cc so far, but right now i don’t even care cuz it’s so much fun to play with. it kind of reminds me of when i was a kid, and i’d be playing nintendo. just out of instinct i used to kind of turn the controller left or right along with the game if i was getting really really into it. of course it didn’t do anything, but i was like 8 years old at the time, it didn’t have to do anything. it’s kind of like that, but it actually works. i know that there are other wheel games out there like excite truck and some other ubisoft crap that comes with a black wheel, but i never played any of it. my only driving experience with the wii before this was wario ware. anyway, i’m impressed and it’s fun. yup. there’s only one thing that makes no sense. if king boo is a ghost and he hovers above his kart, then why is he considered heavy? aren’t ghosts made of… nothing? i mean… he’s floating! i guess it doesn’t have to make too much sense though, it’s just mario kart.

the most useless job ever

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

so i looked out my window today and i saw this guy here:

yeah. no job is more pointless than holding a stop sign IN FRONT OF A STOP SIGN!!! hahhaahahahhahahhahahha! i bet he felt like a moron doing that! that or he didn’t even notice and he thought he was actually doing a public service that was saving the lives of countless children from being smashed by oncoming traffic. either way, it was worth taking a picture of, that’s for sure.

new glory of heracles game?

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

ign says there’s a new glory of heracles game coming out for the ds. i can’t help but find that pretty neat. since they’ve announced an english title, maybe it’s going to be translated into english. that would be pretty darn cool. i’ve always wanted to see more out of this series but it seemed like it was forgotten by time. i can’t wait to see what comes of this.
