Well, I haven't bee up to much lately. I might have another recording gig coming up. A band contacted me wanting to record a few for a demo, thats a little extra $$ for me, yay. I've been working on my band as well, of course :P Grimya, just click the name to visit the official myspace page.

also, i'm designing a intro for a new show called Random Access DFW, a buddy of mine, Rance Adams (click his name for more info) asked me to do that for him, this is great practice for me and a way to get my name out there. I'm using Adobe After Effects to do this, i'm also making a few images for the show as well using photoshop.

I'll see you later!

rain, lighting and all that

Well, i'm at work atm, not really working, i had to come here to pick up my other half. So I went back up to the office and decided to burn some time on the interwebz.

I had no idea we were supposed to be getting a storm here (Dallas, TX area) I was at home (enjoying being all alone, doesn't happen often) then BOOM, very loud thunder that shook the house. Kind of surprising. On my way over here there was a nice light show, lots of lighting. I brought my camera w/ me so i might step outside to take a few pics. I'll post them later; maybe tomorrow, IDK.

I applied at Fry's (huge electronics store) I love that place. I can spent hours in there lol I need more money...

I still plan on making a fake movie trailer for a fake movie i thought up... (drum roll) NINJA BUNNY!!!!! (applaud here)
It will be a easter bunny that kicks butt... hopefully i can. I'm going to 'borrow' a easter bunny suit from where my g/f works (easter bunny set)

Also today I got some good news... Day by Day Armageddon 2 is about to come out!
Day by Day is the best zombie book i've read. I highly recommend it to all my fellow zombie fans. You can find it here: Day by Day Armageddon (A Zombie Novel)


the official site is: http://www.daybydayarmageddon.com/

The following is a email from my job. This is my work email and is FWD from my boss from another person in the management office. If you look at earlier post, i've posted some other things they (my boss and others) send around at this work place...
Its sad and this is 1 reason i need to get out of here.

JOKE # 1
In response to President Obama's complaint that FOX News doesn't show
enough Black and Hispanic people on their network, FOX has announced that
they will now air "America 's Most Wanted" TWICE a week...

JOKE # 2
NASCAR News
Jeff Gordon fires entire pit crew

This announcement followed Gordon's decision to take advantage of
President-elect Obama's scheme to employ Harlem youngsters.
The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary on
how unemployed youths from Harlem were able to remove a set of wheels
in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, where as Gordon's
existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of dollars
worth of high tech equipment. It was thought to be an excellent and
bold move by Gordon's management team as most races are won or lost in
the pits. However, Gordon got more than he bargained for!
At the crew's first practice session, not only was the inexperienced
crew able to change all wheels in under 6 seconds, but within 12
seconds they had changed the paint scheme, altered the VIN number, and
sold the car to Dale Jr. for 10 cases of Bud, a bag of weed, and some photos of Jeff Gordon's wife in the shower.

New tech could make consoles obsolete? IDK

Below is a news story i just read. It seems interesting but I doubt this will kill the console gaming. There have been others like this and they vanished... It sounds like a good idea, but just won't make it bigger then console gaming.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

New tech could make consoles obsoleteOnLive promises on-demand, streaming gamesBy Mike SmithADVERTISEMENTWhat if you could stream top-end games to your TV, just like a Youtube video that you can control? You'd never need to buy a console again.That's the future envisaged by Palo Alto startup OnLive, which plans to launch a groundbreaking gaming service this winter. OnLive will supply players with a small set-top box, not much bigger than a Nintendo DS, which will plug into your TV and your home broadband connection. From there, you can start playing games just like those on the Xbox 360, PS3 or PC -- but with no install time, no waiting for downloads, and no need for big, noisy, expensive consoles cluttering up your living room. OnLive's service can be continually upgraded, too, so you'll never be stuck with obsolete hardware again.Skeptical? So were we, until we actually sat down and played with an OnLive box last week. Even a blisteringly fast racer like Burnout Paradise was totally playable over the service, and top-spec shooter Crysis: Warhead -- which normally requires an expensive gaming PC -- ran excellently too. It's all rolled together with a slick interface that requires just a few button-presses to get playing.OnLiveOnLive PicturesOnLive also includes some features you might associate more with your DVR than with a gaming console, including a Replay feature that lets you save the last ten seconds of your gameplay, and send it to your friends.PC gamers aren't left out, either: OnLive's service can be accessed with a browser plugin from either Mac or PC platforms, works identically to the TV version, and has hardware requirements so low you'll be able, the company boasts, to play the most advanced of games on a $300 netbook.OnLive has already signed deals with an impressive range of partners -- including EA, Take-Two, and Ubisoft -- and promises to have an up-to-the-minute selection of games when the service launches. Along with Burnout and Crysis, we spotted Grand Theft Auto IV, LEGO Batman, and Mirror's Edge among the games on offer, although the lineup will likely change before the service launches.There's a catch, though. Being an online, streaming service, OnLive is only going to be as good as your Internet connection. High-definition resolutions will require a higher-end broadband connection, and if your service is prone to drop out unexpectedly, you're probably going to wind up frustrated. Even if it works, all that streaming video's going to add up over the months, and heavy users might find themselves the receipient of some unwelcome attention from their ISPs. Modem users, needless to say, need not apply.OnLive won't talk price, other than to say that they'll be competitive with subscription services like Xbox Live. The box itself is simple and cheap to make, they told us, and it's easy to imagine it being thrown in with subscriptions -- rather like a cable or satellite TV set-top box. Games will most likely be available to rent or buy, and with free demos that don't need to be downloaded.

hmmm.. jelly beans

well, when I got into work this morning there was a 4lb jar of 41 Unique Flavor 'Gourmet' Jelly Beans sitting on my desk. I asked a co-worker who left these,,, answer: no idea...

I asked around and finally got a answer, the overnight guy that has a huge sweet tooth decided to leave them on my desk. I don't know if he meant too or wanted to share them w/ everyone... but i'm tempted to take a 'couple'... eh, why not lol

Also, I had 3 reports I need to file laying on my desk. Maybe the jelly beans are here to give me some energy lol

I am really getting tired of this job, all the crap, all the racism, the boredom, having to always be 'groomed' and this damn uniform.
I was thinking last night what i can do/want to do... I'm lost
I really do not know what to do...

Hmmmm, ponder on this I will

I know its hard at this time to get another job or start a business... I would love to do that. maybe it will happen... Because I'm really not sure how much longer I can take being at this place... everyday i just want to say i quite... i really wish i could.

its all a joke
Once you figure out what a joke everything is, being the comedian's the only thing that makes sense.

you know something? these jelly beans are pretty good...

Who watches the watchmen

well well, its 3:40am and I just returned home from seeing, The Watchmen.

My rating? 2 thumbs, 5 stars, etc.. etc...

Yes, it isn't just like the comic but you know what? its pretty damn close... (yes yes, the end is different)

but, this is a great film!

i recommend you see it, i promise you will not be disappointed...

i enjoyed it so much, i plan on seeing it again...

ha

well,
last nite i unlocked all characters in Street Fighter 4. yay! (this is were you cheer with me,,, hello? eh, oh well)

Now to beat the game w/ everyone on all settings
speaking of settings... I tried it on hard (there is a hardest as well) I didn't lose a fight all the way up to Seth... he is almost impossible to beat on hard... I tried countless times till i finally gave up, my thumb was hurting lol

Street Fight 4 is the best fighting game i've played in awhile.
