For those of you who “missed” Carrie Prejean’s interview on Larry King live. (“I wouldn’t say I ‘missed it,’ Bob”) You should check out this video. If you get passed her sucking Sarah Palin’s floppy dick, you can watch her be an idiot and almost walk off the show (Starting at about 0:55)
So unless you actually have the brain of a beauty pageant queen, you know that the question was not at all inappropriate. She really just didn’t want to admit that the lawsuits were about money and fame more than some ethical position. She didn’t have a good answer, so she jumped straight into offended mode.
Well, Miss Prejean, if you’d like to be offended here are 5 questions Larry SHOULD have asked you: Read the rest of this entry »

This week the wheels fall off several times over as the boys talk about the latest follies of Miss “Opposite Marriage” California, Twilight, Tim’s showering phobia, acronyms, rape jokes (sorry), gaming systems, a sweet Amazon offer that it is too late for you to take advantage of, Noah’s “diet,” the evils of Wal Mart, and this ends with daddy’s shame.

So I’m here in Portland for the NACA conference (I showcase Saturday night, baby!) There was an after party tonight at the Doubletree Hotel and I passed that rack of pamphlets for things to do in the area.
You might not be able to see why I’m posting this blog…lets zoom in a little.
Um…for those of you who don’t live around here, Portland is about 1,000 miles away from Knott’s Berry Farm.
“Hey honey, as long as we’re here in Portland, we might as well drive 15 hours to see Knott’s Berry Farm.”

I have recently gone to the theater to see “Michael Jackson’s This Is It.” It was a great movie. Not in the way that Casablanca was a great movie, but in the way that it was a chance to spend a final 2 hours with MJ watching him do what he did best: sing and dance.
I don’t think there’s another artist alive or dead that I would sit down and watch almost 2 hours of them. Not to take anything away from the Beatles or Elvis or Sinatra, but after a couple songs, I’m full. But this movie could have gone on longer and I would have still been on board.
What’s great is it doesn’t try to be super over emotional/sentimental like “he’s dead and you should be sad.” It just shows the footage of him going through the songs that you loved. Seeing him tweaking things and planning. I thought it was very interesting and also a chance to watch him perform one last time.
It is a shame that the This Is It tour will never happen. He/they put a lot into that show. It’s not like he was just gonna put on his glove and fedora and moonwalk for a few songs and collect a check…he was putting on A SHOW!!! Cirque du MJ, if you will.
And that leads me to my “Tough Decision.” Last year it was rumored that the reason the Las Vegas Hilton removed the Star Trek Experience was to make room for a Michal Jackson stage. At the time, I was quite irritated about this (as long time listeners of the show are probably already aware).
But as I sat there and watched the fantastic things that they were creating to augment the talent of Michael, I am forced to reconcile whether it was a worthy replacement to the Star Trek Experience. I would have loved to have seen that show. It MIGHT have been worth giving up The Experience to see.

If you are a cheap bastard, pay a penny and make baby Jeebus (and PayPal) cry. If you can spare $5, pay that. If you like number sequences, pay $3.14 or $12.34 or $24.68.
This is a crazy, well-writen, fascinating, physics-based puzzle game. It’s available on every PC platform. There is no DRM or other dickishness attached, which might explain why it’s one of the most pirated games out there.
So go legit if you have a warez copy. Buy a copy cheap if you are just plain curious. Donate a ton of money if you feel like supporting small developers.
