• Valve's Orange Box -- A Great Way to Spend Less Time With Friends and Family

  First off, add me as friend over on Steam Community! If the little things in life like spending quality time with family, friends, pets, etc are important to you then I would highly recommend not purchasing the latest offering from Valve Software: The Orange Box . The majority of my weekend has been spent playing a smattering of Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Portal, and Team Fortress 2. Of the 3, I've spent most of the time playing Portal which from a purely gameplay point of view is one of the more...

• Coming Up For Air

  Man oh man what a weekend. Like most geeks worldwide, I spent the majority of the weekend A) playing Half Life 2: Episode 1 and B) not getting nearly enough full meals and C) consuming too many beers. The game is a little repetitive at times (and I still haven’t finished it), but the graphics are unlike anything I’ve ever seen in a game. They aren’t quite as good as they were in the Lost Coast demo, but they are definitely stunning. In other news, the project I’m working on...

• BlogShares -- Very Addictive

  I’ve been a member on Blogshares since last July but never really got into it…until the past week or so after reading Bob’s post about it . It’s addictive to say the least (note: click my B$:Listed button for a direct link to my info, RSS folks just click here ); I’m already up to around 3 million in my portfolio just buy using the basic strategy of buy low priced-low p/e blogs in chunks of 1250 shares, sell them off 250 at a time until p/e approaches 250 then sell...

• XBox Live Gamertag -- XStatic9

  I finally got around to buying a wireless router for my XBox (which I might add I purchased over 3 years ago at the full 299.95 price…it is now 149.95)… this one if you’re curious. The gamertag I wanted (XStatic) was taken, so I had to settle for XStatic9, and I was a bit peeved that the XBox live subscription service didn’t allow for punctuation in the gamertag handle. It just looks so plain without all the markup I usually do, plus I’m sure I would have eventually...
