May 2008

You know, I always thought that Lenny Kravitz had an interesting style. I mean here he is, in the 21st century wearing bell bottoms and tight shirts. I always thought it was very unique of him, especially when other African Americans are wearing Sean John, or putting out their own clothing line, Kravitz takes an original stance and goes back to the 70’s for his look. It really makes him stand out.

My style isn’t anywhere near Lenny Kravitz’ though. Mine is more like Kevin Smith. I have a trench coat and I used to wear a lot of baseball caps. I would still wear them now, but my hair isn’t as long as it was so I don’t need to worry about it sticking up when I go out. Honestly I don’t even think I own a pair of Dockers and if I do then I haven’t worn them in a long time.

Speaking of Dockers, don’t forget that there is still time to enter the Dockers contest, which is for a TV video commercial, but you don’t want to wait until the last minute to enter, you should work on it and make it as good as you can. The better the entry the more likely you are to win the contest.

Speed bumps are all over the place where I live. It doesn’t slow anyone down except for emergency personnel though. It takes up to 30 minutes extra for police or firefighters to get to people because of the speed bumps. I am not talking about one or two in the complex, I am talking about one per every 100 feet. As it is I am driving sideways on them so I don’t bottom out, or I just drive on the grass. Either way these things have to go.

I am a fan of Smallville, but next season they are loosing Lex, Lana, and now possibly Chloe as main characters. Lex and Lana will be on as recurring characters, but Chloe remains to be seen. Honestly Lex could have been a recurring character for the last few seasons, him marrying Lana and trying to get her pregnant was really far fetched. Honestly after the season finale, I don’t know how they will continue the story at all, but maybe they will jump to more Superman Mythos, maybe Clark will finally fly in season 8. I am guessing he will have to in order to fight Doomsday right?

Krissy and I are trying to figure out what we want to do with the rest of our lives. Now if everything pans out then I could have everything set, she could too. We’ve still been throwing around ideas though. She mentioned a flight attendant career. Now that doesn’t sound too bad, in fact flying anywhere in the world for free actually sounds pretty fun. I have always wanted to learn how to fly a plane, I gather it isn’t much hard than driving a car and isn’t much different than playing flight simulators.

For fun we looked up a flight attendant blog. I didn’t realize how much stuff their was to it, I thought it was a pretty much cushy job, though there are some not so cushy parts. In fact I didn’t realize that you had to go to a flight attendant school, I just assumed you could walk on board a flight and do that.

Banjo Kazooie 3 is rumored to be using a never before seen technology on the 360, a motion sensored controller. If this is the case then I wonder if the motion sensor will be exclusive to new Xbox 360 games, or if popular games such as Call of Duty 4, Halo 3, or Grand Theft Auto 4 will get updates to use the new motion sensor technology. I also wonder if it will be a same as before motion sensor like Sony has, or if it is going to be like the use it how you want like Nintendo has. Either way if this is true, then we should know on Tuesday, when Banjo Kazooie 3 will be shown to the press.

I am looking to reconsolidate my credit cards. I don’t know if we could reconsolidate the loan and the cards all together, so right now I am my main focus is getting the two cards of $4000 total down on one card with a lower than 20% interest rate. I have been checking out a credit card rating now more than ever, so I can see how well they pan out. I need one that I can get a really low interest rate with, otherwise what is the point of putting the two cards onto a new one? I just want to end up paying less what I am paying now, or pay the same amount now at a lower interest rate so that I can pay them off quicker.

I stole Krissy’s Photoshop CS3 for Dummies Book. Hopefully I can use it to create some fun, interesting new graphics for my site.I remember the first Dummies book I ever had was DOS for Dummied. That was way back, before Windows 95, when Windows 3.1 was out. I used that book to fix, and break the old computer I had. Of course after I broke it as long as I had the DOS disks I knew I could fix it.

I am surprised that the books are still around today, after all it has been well over ten years of calling people dummies, but I guess as long as the book is helpful then people mdon’t really care what you call it.

Has anyone seen the trailer for the movie Frontier(s)? The movie looks gross and scarey, with a lot of gore. Basically it is everything you need for a Horror Movie. It doesn’t look like your ordinary horror movie though, it isn’t about a hockey masked killer in the woods, it is actually about a group of thieves who rob a bank and then go to stay in a run down motel, but little do they know the motel is run by Nazi cannibals.

This seems like one of the movies that I would go see in theaters, but the problem is that I would need to go all the way up to Philadelphia to see it. If it was closer then I would definitely be there opening night. The DVD comes out a few days after its openning night in theaters though, so it isn’t like I will be waiting long to see the movie.

Krissy usually hates these kinds of movies, but I wonder if I could get her to watch Nazi cannibals trying to mutilate and torture thieves. It is probably a lost cause, although it never hurts to try right? I’ve done harder things in life than convince my girlfriend to watch a horror movie with me.

As a child in school I was promised, as I am sure a lot of you were, a flying care by the year 2000. They also promised that we’d be living on the moon, but I am more concerned with the flying car. Well after years of waiting, I finally realized that my dreams of flying my car in the air is never going to happen, at least not anytime soon. I think a lot of people realized that too, that’s why instead of a flyable car, they are working on a drivable airplane. It is targeting the first commercial vehicle be in the air by 2009. Me being able to fly by 2010, possibly? Definitely sounds good to me.

I like loose pants. Some people say that I look like a bum, but I like to be comfortable above fashionable, so I don’t really care what people say. No matter what kind of pants I wear, jeans or Dockers, I like to have room to move, room to be comfortable. Tight pants annoy me, I always feel restricted in them. Even when I wear a suit, I like my pants to be somewhat loose on me because if they are too tight I just want to rip them off of me and not have them on anymore.

I own a lot of really big pants, ones that are probably about ten sizes too big for me, and they are comfortable, but my favorite pair have to be this two tone pair that I have. They aren’t so loose that they barely fit, but they aren’t annoyingly tight. They are a nice fit, plus I think I look pretty good in them.

What are your favorite pair of pants like? Are they loose and baggy or are they so tight they make your package or your butt look really nice? You can enter a chance to see your ad on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. All you have to do is make a video talking about your favorite pair of pants and submit it into the Dockers contest.

When Eli Stone debuted, a guy with George Michael in his head singing songs and telling him which cases to take sounded dumb. As the show continued and I watched it after Lost, the show grew on me. So when the season finale came and the show’s fate was in the air, I was disappointed that it could be all over. ABC announced yesterday that the show was going to come back for season 2. It definitely is something that I will be watching next season.

Trying to stay on top of the latest technology is expensive. I still use Windows XP and if I were to upgrade to Windows Vista, the Ultimate one, it would cost me about $400. I couldn’t just buy the upgrade either, with the amount of times I have uninstalled and reinstalled Windows, having just the upgrade would be useless to me.

I don’t even use Microsoft Office because that too is really expensive. I might go to CostCaptain though. They have Microsoft Office for $129. That is a lot cheaper than going out and buying it in a store. They also have Viosta Upgrades from $89, and the full versions for a lot less than the regular retail value.
