He was coming right for me.

I just ran over a turtle in my driveway. I didn't see it. I just heard this loud bang. I asked Cyndi what it was. She saw the whole thing going down, but couldn't find the words to stop me. Then, I tried to make her get my mom and sister to clean it up when they got in town. (They're coming to town for the induction.) I didn't tell Cyndi, but I'm pretty sure he was alive when I scraped him off the concrete and threw him in the trashcan.

Clemson

You know why you don't see posts of the USuCk's victory over Clemson on youtube? It's because they haven't won since it was created. This is our 'horrible' team from last year.

The Internet is Down!!!

And by internet, I mean Facebook, and by facebook, I mean I can't play Mafia Wars. I can't protect my Mafia! The horror. The Horror!!!

You have my gra ahahahahahahhhahah!

PS3

I broke down and bought a PS3 this weekend. Watched "Quantum of Solace" on Blue Ray. I still have to buy the remote and the component cable.

That's pretty crappy that the PS3 doesn't just have a regular component cable output. Anything for an extra buck.

As for the remote, I have no problem using the controller, but I think Cyndi will freak out if she ever tries to figure it out.

For now, I plan on downloading game demos and renting games and movies. Any suggestions for good games?

What really sold Cyndi on it was seeing a PS3 in Blockbuster with a football game on. She thought it was a real game. I can't freaking wait to get one of those, but I'd like to learn a little bit of the theory of football formations and strategy. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

I'm Batman.

I used to watch the Batman cartoons back when I was a kid. Anyway, there was this one episode where Scarecrow gets into everyone's head and torments them using some sort of biological warfare. (Sounds familiar, right) He basically would scare the crap out of them and make them do things.

Well, the Scarecrow tried that shit on Bruce Wayne and it failed. You see, the Scarecrow was saying things like, "You'll be never escape Bruce..." Well, Batman fights off the fear gas and wins. Later, Robin asks him, "How did you know you were under control? How did you beat him?"

Batman Replies, "Because when I think to myself, I don't call myself Bruce Wayne. I'm Batman."

I really thought that was a sweet episode. Who do you call yourself when you are thinking about things? Do women think, "Okay, Wonder Woman, lets do this."? Do other guys say, "Alright Magyver, you can figure this out."?

Do any of you guys refer to yourself as different people? (Hey Dumbass, don't screw this up. Okay Buddy, let's do this! Don't listen to him, Dumbass, you're an idiot. FLAME OFF!) Do you have angel/demon debates with different voices? All I'm saying is, maybe you should get some help.

My point is. How crazy is too crazy? Obviously Bruce Wayne had some issues, but I think Batman had his shit together. Wait, what?

Live Show Recording

I bought a Belkin TuneTalk voice recorder and used it to record my show at the Tipsy Teapot last weekend. After much heartache, I figured out how to get music off of an Ipod, and I retrieved the 2.5 hours of music I recorded. Well, thus far, I have listened to a couple songs. The recording sounds okay except every now and then there is a high pitched screeching sound.

Needless to say, this will not do. I'm looking into buying a different recording device. I like the Zoom H4, but I haven't really researched anything. Also, I don't have $250 lying around for a recorder. So, I'll probably continue to use the Tunetalk so that I can review shows and improve (hopefully) my performance.

I will still post a few recordings on my reverbnation.com site. I was going to put these up only for fans, but since the records have their faults, I'll probably allow them for anyone to download. Currently, songs from "Blue Horizons" and "Lava Lamp (Acoustic)" are on the site for streaming only.

I'll post again when I get some songs uploaded.
