See, now hearing things like this worries me. There’s rumors floating around (apparently started by IGN who credit those wonderful “anonymous internal sources” we all know and love) that Nintendo has quietly axed Project H.A.M.M.E.R. It’s an easy rumor to believe since Nintendo hasn’t given us one single sliver of info since the game was […]
Good weekend ahead
Hopefully! A nice, relaxing weekend is in store for me and mine. Father’s Day means getting pampered! And along the way, pampering my own father. We’re planing a gigantic family outing Sunday. We’re all getting together for our once-every-five-years family photo, and then treating dad to dinner at Champp’s. Since the house is all clean […]
Showing house tonight!
The couple next door to us buy investment properties, and are interested in taking a look at our house. Hope and pray! We would love to sell soon, and selling without a realtor would be 7% better than with.
Godfather: Blackhand mini-review
It could definitely be considered an uphill battle to get me to even think about playing a game like The Godfather: Blackhand Edition for the Wii. It has a lot of negative history stacked against it. First of all, I ordinarily strive to avoid any and all Electronic Arts games like the plague, and have […]
Google Reader down?
I’m hoping this isn’t just me. Just a couple of minutes ago, Google Reader said I had 37 updates waiting to be poured over, and when I clicked “refresh”, everything disappeared. It now claims I have absolutely no RSS feed subscriptions, which is patently false. A quick Technorati search shows I’m evidently not alone. Please […]
Streaming video game music: Rainwave
Courtesy of a friend at Evil Avatar, a home-grown sexy website that streams original video game music from decades of systems via an ogg vorbis stream. The site itself is a quick-moving, gorgeous work of genius. And the music is even better than listening to OCRemix (which has been my station of choice for the […]
Homeowners (again)
Well, we did it. We signed our lives away once again. My wife and I signed the papers to purchase a brand new townhome in Waukee last night. The deal is obviously contingent upon us selling our current home. But in order to pull that off, we need to get in gear and get the […]
Happy birthday, Kevin!
My wonderful friend Kevin–one of only two groomsmen at my wedding–finally turns 30 today, several months after me. Kevin has been living the high life out in LA, working hard at becoming a struggling actor/producer. Uh, no, that’s not him. No, not him either. Ah, there he is! Well, anyway, he’s my friend, and today’s […]
What would you do as CEO of Mahalo?
I’m not much for Facebook discussions, myself, but if you are, then I suggest you check this out. Jason Calacanis is wondering what you would do next if you were CEO of Mahalo. My suggestion? Look for a way to generate some revenue. Oh, yeah, and change the logo. I like the name “mahalo”, but […]
The (possible) future look of Firefox version 3
Via Lifehacker, I’ve been pointed towards Alex Faaborg, a user interface designer working on the upcoming Firefox 3, who has posted some screenshot mockups of some of the experimental designs they are working to incorporate into the updated browser. Alex adds the usual disclaimer, about how the designs may change or potentially not even make […]
