I've been waiting for this sale to pick up AC3.

I imagine they are paying Bush well, so it might be more about that than him being an actual loon.

It's probably just because we have so many games that have a lower case o in the acronym, so it looks more natural. WoW, PoP, CoD, etc. It's not really something I notice much.

Rex Nebular! That was one of my favorites as a teenager. Nothing like the chance of pixelated boobs to keep a young boy on the edge of his seat. I remember Dragonsphere as well, that was a decent adventure too.

We're the Millers - One of the better comedies I've seen in a long time. It was hilarious, although I am a bit partial to RV hi-jinks.

I'm terrified that Almost Human is going to get cancelled. It's the best show I've seen in a long time.

I went to a Star Wars exhibit at the San Jose Tech Museum. It was pretty cool, they had a ton of the models from the movies. The kids had a blast and now I'm enjoying some nice downtime with one asleep and the other watching a movie.

I do. His name is B**** F****. Bruce Finey? Brice Folen? Bubba Frost? Bester Friend.

I've got some potatoes in the oven, and I think I'll mash them when they get out. I also have a decent box of mushroom risotto, which is an odd mix but I'm in the mood for both.

Jaywalking is just a citation, I'm not sure what that has to do with arrests or prison population. He was probably going to court to contest it, rather than pay the fine.

I like to think of myself as a hardcore reader. I wasn't talking about Penthouse Letters KP.

It's interesting that no one ever claims to be a hardcore reader. People tend to identify themselves as experts in a certain genre. That really is a better tack to take when it comes to games. Music and movies are a bit more digestible, so it makes more sense to say you are hardcore about those media types.

German restaurants are rare in my parts, and so the ones that succeed tend to be exceptional. That being said, the best part of the German food tends to be how it works with the beer.

Good luck. It's my favorite game ever. Interesting. Will share my thoughts after 10-15 hours of playtime. I'd probably say my only advice would be to not rush. Enjoy the different areas that Turbine has recreated from the books and movies. There are loads of easter eggs.

Good luck. It's my favorite game ever.

I always find the Mexican food to be one of the best parts of visiting California (which I do somewhat regularly to see my wife's family). A couple times a month I go to a hole in the wall mexican restaurant for breakfast that serves the best posole with handmade flour tortillas and fresh squeezed OJ. The make perfect breakfast burritos as well, no extra junk, just potatoes, eggs, and chorizo. It's pretty much the only type of food I can't easily replicate in my own kitchen.

Somehow I ended up watching all of the death race movies one weekend. It was really only enjoyable because the actors seemed like they were having a ton of fun.

Would you be happy with Taco Bell as a menu item at your school? Or rather lets say it was the standard meal on Friday for the kids It really depends on what they are offering. Taco Bell still has some absolute disasters on their menu. They'd probably fail because of the sodium. The Fresco menu would probably work in schools. The best thing we serve at my school is a bowl from a small taco chain with beans, rice, and chicken.

Today I drew a perfect circle. I didn't notice until the students behind me gasped and then asked how I did that. It was somewhat glorious. Although I do worry that we have a finite amount of moments where we do something exceptional, and I just wasted one drawing a circle on the whiteboard. I felt better about it when my last class of the day split into two groups, one arguing that it wasn't perfect and the others bowing in reverence to the perfect circle. Teaching is never dull.

What in the name of yellow are you wearing?

Does anyone else prefer the Lord of Flies version of these trolls? Oby seems to be appealing to the lowest common denominator by just throwing up a bunch of pictures with a little text. It makes me miss the essays of LoF, for sure.

Taco Bell is actually one of the healthier fast food joints you can go to. I'm betting that burrito is probably no worse that anything you get from any other burrito place. They don't use lard either, which gives them an edge. Although I doubt it tastes as good

It shouldn't surprise anyone that a culture of hating authority figures simply widens the gap between the cultural group and said authorities. It takes work on both sides to create a respectful relationship.

"with jobs" and "play the game enough" kinda contradict each other, no? at least, for me to justify tossing $15 out the window every month I have to play the game at least 20 hours a week. and even now, while I'm a student, I can't dedicate more than 4-5 hours a week to games, let alone one game. Most of the people I play MMO's with have full on careers. The key is that all they really do is work and play the game, and they play that one game exclusively. When you work and 8-10 hour day, you still have time to come home and play for 4-5 hours. Cut back on the sleep a bit and you can get even more. I did join a guild once where it seemed like quite a few of the people were on disability, that scared me off pretty fast. I go through spurts like that, maybe a week or two where I'm really enjoying the game and putting in a lot of hours. But I get burnt out quick, and I like to play a variety of games. I've honestly encountered very few teenagers in MMO's. I'm sure they are out there, but I avoid the general chats and most of the guilds I've been in have been pretty mature.

If you watch Kaep throw, it's pretty clear he's a legit talent. But he is definitely still learning, and it's fairly amazing that he took a team to the Superbowl. This year they've obviously committed to developing his passing game, they've basically ignored the option that worked so well in the playoffs. It's a work in progress. It hurts that Crabtree is out too, because he's basically got one decent route runner in Boldin and a speedy tight end in Vernon Davis. There are a lot of dropped balls by the other guys, he is a QB that throws hard. That's been the biggest change between him and Alex Smith. Crabtree thrived with Kaep because he's a great route runner with fantastic hands. Alex Smith throws a completely different ball, it has more touch but it also isn't going to get there as fast and he's limited downfield because of that. That's why Dwayne Bowe isn't having a huge season in KC, despite the team having success. There are still positives. He's not putting himself in a position where he is going to get hurt a lot, like many other running QB's. He's not turning the ball over a ton. His upside is still pretty huge. I still think they've got a better than good shot at getting a wildcard.
