I finally gave in...


...and bought a Nintendo Wii. All I can say so far is WOW. Awesome interface. Actually it’s very easy to use and navigate through the Wii menus and the games themselves. When I bought the Wii, I also purchased Tiger Woods 07. I’ve been a big fan of that line of games (the Tiger Woods golf series) for a few years now; I started with Tiger Woods 2004 for the Xbox, and have gotten the game each year/release every since. The game is so precise that it actually helped improve my own golf game!

More to come later.

Twitter no more (not like I did much twittering anyway)


I officially closed my Twitter account. I gave it a go, and decided that wasn’t the way for me (twittering). To be honest, it was very fething boring (if you didn’t catch the Gaunt’s Ghosts reference, you can go here and here for a bit of an explanation).

That leads into my latest (past year or so) favorite reading topic: Warhammer 40,000. I don’t play the game, but I read the novels. The universe is very different in Warhammer 40k. It’s the 41st millennium, and an Emperor has risen to unite mankind, leading from Holy Terra (Earth). I read stories about Gaunt’s Ghosts, Space Wolves, UltraMarines, Imperial Fists, the Eldar, Chaos and demons...everything in the Warhammer 40,000 (40k) universe. Currently I’m reading Flight of the Eisenstein from the Horus Heresy series (this is the 4th book in the series). This is during the 31st millennium, during the Great Crusade after the Emperor of Mankind elevated the primarch Horus to Warmaster, and the Emperor returned to Terra (Earth) to start overseeing the vast empire he has built/conquered. There’s much more to it than that, but I leave it to you (the reader) to do the follow up reading if you are interested.

Well, that’s it for now. Funny how the post started with me closing my Twitter account, and ending with a brief discussion of Warhammer 40k. Ya gotta love ADD, easily distractable. Ooo....Shiny!

*and off I go to some other random task/topic*

Dunno why I typed that. Sounded fun to say out loud though.

This is kinda my first foray into blogging. My friend Evan started blogging, but he puts useful information up on his blog. So he kinda motivated me to start (blogging).

As far as format goes, this blog will not be strictly technical info, nor will it just be random ranting by me; it will be a combination of the two....and then some.

“How often will your blog be updated?“ you ask....good question. Answer is: random and sporadic. I have no plans to commit to daily blog updates, nor do I plan to go silent for months. It all depends on my attention span. hahaha
