One of the cool things about the internet is the email. You never know what you will get next. When I get something exceptional, I share it here. With that said I present Balloon art! Enjoy!

Assassin’s Creed

Posted in General Stuff, video games with tags , , on January 16, 2008 by axewielderx

Well, I finished this game and thought I would post my thoughts on it. Normally, I do not take the time to give a game a review, however, there are always exceptions to the rule.

Game: Assassin’s Creed

System: Xbox 360

Game Length: 50 to 100 hrs.

Cons: Game could be longer,no online play

Pros: Amazing Graphics, Original story and game play

Additional thoughts:

This game was very original in it’s story. It has alot of surprises and is not quite what you think it will be. It is entirely story driven with a intelligent storyline that makes you think.The game play makes you think, investigate and problem solve.

Personal experience: I loved this game. It was my favorite game this year. The storyline was deep and made me think. The assassinations were challenging and the graphics were stunning even on regular definition. The gameplay was very different from most other games I have played. Every good game has a good story and this one is no exception. I recommend this game to everyone who likes fun and a challenge.

A New year and a new chance…

Posted in General Stuff, Thoughts with tags , , , on January 1, 2008 by axewielderx

What new cool thing will come out this year? A change in the political climate perhaps? A accord to reduce the global warming? A cure for a disease? I suppose these and many other things are are important to the big picture, called planet earth. However, how much of a impact will any of it have on me or for that matter the average person? Not likely anything huge in the near future.

The real chance for us, as individuals, is the chance to become someone better, someone improved from the previous year. Am I speaking of resolutions? Yes and no. Certainly a resolution that is actually acted upon is the  general direction I am aiming for. But what I am really trying to get across is that this new year gives us each the chance to be a better human being.

Having said that, I am sure there are those, who would say that this is really too simplified. That there must be much more clarity, more direction. Saying that one should should strive this year, to be a better human being this year, is far too broad a goal.

To those that think such, I say this. Everyone knows when they are not being the best they can possibly be. They know it in heart. They know it with every fiber of their being. Nothing could be anymore more simple than this and yet so meaningful.

Imagine, just for a moment if every single human being on this planet, decided to be a better human being this year…. now tell me this would have no impact on the world!

I am realist though and know this will never happen, however, I also realize that every little bit helps. One good deed, one good thing, can turn into many. One good thing can change the course of someone’s life forever.

After typing this (and hopefully after you have read this) the decision to try to be a better human being seems like a worthy goal. Therefore, with this new year I will embrace this  new chance at becoming a better human being. I hope you will join me.

Christmas Time…

Posted in General Stuff, Thoughts with tags , , on December 13, 2007 by axewielderx

I usually do not take the time to blog about serious issues anymore. Mostly jokes and pictures are posted here and for a good reason. Anything of real substance is mostly ignored.

 However, occasionally I get a wild hair up my ass and decide to waste my time posting something serious and it looks like this is one of those times.

If you came to this post looking for a laugh, you should leave now. If you came here looking for some cool picture to look at… again, go ahead and leave.

Now that the casual people are gone I can now approach this subject knowing I won’t be wasting anyone else’s time but my own.

Christmas time should be a time of joy and giving. A time for sharing and love. A fun time of the year. I wish that were true of this year.

For more than 18 yrs., me and my wife, have managed to provide gifts for the kids at Christmas. Sadly, that is not the case this year. This is due to a number of things that have happened this year. My wife’s employer has barely made any profits and has made layoffs due to the housing market slump. Her raise was eaten by the rising price of everything due to gas prices soaring. The price for cigarettes in our state more than doubled. We have been broke every single week this year and there will be no Christmas bonus from work.

As a result we will not even be putting up the Christmas tree. Maybe by not putting it up it will remind the kids less of this Christmas being missed.

I realize there are others who are worse off but I just hate to see the kids suffer through no fault of their own. Things will get better soon, I hope…. or I guess I can just stop eating my one meal a day.

I wonder if there are any other in the same boat? If so, feel free to speak up with a comment.

While I was gone…

Posted in General Stuff, Thoughts with tags , on December 9, 2007 by axewielderx

It seems, rather mysterious that while I am gone, I get more response to my posts then when I am here posting ona regular basis. I wonder what kind of reasoning or purpose lies behind this activity. i guess it is one of those small mysteries of life that are never explained and need not be.

Soon I shall be back and adding more new and original content. I thank all those who have visited and left some feedback.

Life is..

Posted in General Stuff, Writings with tags , , on November 7, 2007 by axewielderx

Life is the fight for a dream. Do we fight enough though? Often we just seem to give up. Look at our world and it is easy to see that so many have given up. Given in. Or perhaps are just too tired. I am certain many can relate to this.

I, too, can find myself guilty of this. I may make excuses like, my dreams died along time ago. or the infamous one, about how they are not possible anymore because I am too old. This leads me to a simple question then.

If life is the fight for a dream and we are not fighting, are we really living at all?

So long, my friend.

You were there for me in the darkness,when all is silent.

You were there for me when I was invisble, how did you find me?

You were there when I was behind a locked door.

Even though I did the crime, you forgave me.

When no one else understood, it was perfectly clear to you.

But now is the time to say goodbye..

Your love is a little death every time we meet.

It is either you or me, for I can no longer live with you.

You should leave before I kill you…..

I WANT TO SUE MICROSOFT !!!!!!!

Posted in General Stuff, Thoughts, Xbox 360 with tags , , on September 22, 2007 by axewielderx

Finally, got my 4TH xbox 360 back from Microsoft…it stopped reading game discs in less than 2 wks.

 I am so tired of getting faulty crap from Microsoft. Now I am searching for a Lawyer who is willing to sue Microsoft. I wasted many hours of frustration, along with my entire family on the xbox 360. If they keep sending you faulty 360’s, they are committing fraud and not really honoring their warranty.

Anyone know any great lawers? Drop me an email . Guess I will leave this post up top until I get some feedback. I would would really like to post some jokes and funny pictures but I need help with this matter much more.

Ps3 vs 360

Posted in General Stuff, Xbox 360 with tags , , , on August 31, 2007 by axewielderx

If you have been reading any of my posts about my xbox 360, then you clearly know that I have had major issues with the xbox 360. I am currently waiting for my 4th 360 to arrive.

In the meantime, I have been speaking with people on message boards about my 360 problems and mentioning I might switch to the ps3. The biggest comment I have heard is “the ps3 has no games” so I did a little research and found this…

Browse PlayStation 3 Games (186)

http://www.gamedaily.com/games/playstation-3/?resultCount=186&displayType=list&page=5

Granted not all of these are on the market just yet, but they will be. Looks like the last arguement xbox 360 owners have is about to turn to dust.

When my 4th xbox 360 arrives, if it actually works, I will use it until March 08, then I will buy a ps3 and gladly sell the xbox 360.

 I suggest others do the same. This insanity that microsoft calls the xbox 360 needs to end.

The truth about Plasma Tvs(The finale)

Posted in General Stuff, Plasma TV with tags , , , on August 29, 2007 by axewielderx

If you have read my previous posts on this matter you will know that Samsung, after 2 months, finally replaced my new Tv with a used one. I called them and they claim the TV is new. Yet, when I ask them to verify the serial number,they cannot.

How can they know the plasma tv they sent me was new, when they do not even know its serial number?

The fact is they are lying to me and it would not be the 1st time. Now they want me to send them pictures as proof that the tv is used.

This is apparently just another ploy to stall me. Therefore, I decided to sell the used TV they sent me. I lost $1000.00 in the deal.

I learned my lesson and I hope you have learned something from reading these articles on plasma tv.
