My friend Matt (who provides me with this great hosting, check out his site http://www.HostMist.com) has been talking about this game called MineCraft for the past year. He always suggested that I get it. I looked at the screenshots, and videos of it, and noticed how ugly the graphics were. Too blocky, so I put it off. However recently, I discovered that its like playing with legos, which I used to love (now I’m way too lazy to get them out because I’d have to pick them all back up wh

So there is a story going around about a guy who claims to have found some sort of space station on Mars while exploring Mars via Google Earth. You can clearly tell that it’s a glitch in the system. The pixels don’t match the surrounding and are a complete different color, As you can clearly see in the picture I took: So after being disappointed with his finding, I went on my own search to find my own artifact. I ended up finding what is clearly a fossil of a vom

I’ve been wanting an iPhone for years, but being with Verizon meant that I couldn’t get one, unless I left them and went to at&t. I never wanted to switch carriers so I stuck with it. I wanted an iPhone because of my previous ownership of an iPod Touch, which was the most amazing device I’ve ever owned! So having the iPhone would be even cooler, and a much better deal since I can have my music player, phone, camera, etc all in one. In 2009 I got the Droid, which I thoug

Back when I was a teenager, driving a real life car was so relaxing, and such a stress reliever. I remember I could cruise around in a car and be at total peace. Now driving pretty much is a chore and I hate it so much. For the past years I have found a new way to relieve stress: Running over people and objects in Grand Theft Auto IV. Now this isn't some sick twisted thing like I actually want to kill people in real life, because I don’t, but there is just something super fun about do

Some one may remember my post from last year about RCT2 http://www.grunch.com/rollercoaster-tycoon-2-love-it/878/ and how I mentioned RollerCoaster Tycoon 2, but hated the newer version 3. Disclaimer: this isn't a review really, its just me blabing and rambling about stuff. I am finally inlove with RollerCoaster Tycoon 3! this game was released in like 2004 or 05, and I’m just now starting to love it. I put off playing it for so many years because I hated the w

I sold cameras for a few years, and always suggested Canon cameras to the customers. I used to think that they were solid, and returned much better results for the customers. I now think that i was so wrong. A few months ago I bought a SD780 IS 12-mega pixel Canon camera. I bought it because it was super slim, and took great pictures. Soon after I bought the camera i noticed spots on the pictures. I knew instantly what this was because I had the same problem with a Sanyo ca

I just got done watching “From Paris with Love”, and i have to say that John Travolta turned into one badass dude! He was awesome in Pulp Fiction, but the last two movies I've seen him in were great, he turned into one bad ass motha fucka! – Which were “The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3”, and the one i just mentioned. He really takes it to another level. Who would’ve thought that the guy dancing on Saturday Night Fever, and Urban Cowboy would turn into what he was in these last two movies.&#

I am trying to rid my life of Google services and products. I mean they are everywhere now – harvesting my personal info and whatever other data that they can get from me, and its just getting too creepy. Today I was looking for an alternative to Google Analytics, and found Piwik! For those of you who do not know what Analytics is: It a service ran by google that tracks everything about your websites. Such as user visits, what the users do on your sites, how long they visit

This is going to be a random entry where i just blab about RCT. I just wanna start up discussion on this game. Many people haven't played it yet, and i think they’d love it if they do. Plus im just bored and tired. :) This has got to be one of the greatest games ever! At least for me it is. I don’t think I’ve played any other game as much as i have this one. I used to play RCT (RollerCoaster Tycoon) for hours and hours, and really never got bored of it like i do

I was looking through my digital picture collection earlier, and I was reminded by something I have noticed before, which is some of the first digital pictures I've taken (way back in like 2000) have some major distortion caused by the camera lens. Back then I was new to digital photography, and i had a cheap digital camera that was bought from our ISP at the time which was EarthLink. Here is a photo of me from may 2001, in which you can see the distortion: Ha, i dunno what i was

I’m not really into rap music anymore. Every now and then a good song comes along. But i’ve always been a huge fan of Eminem’s. He’s just really unique and very original, and alot of it i can relate to. It’s been boring in the last few years without him comin out with new raps. His ‘Relapse’ album was really nice. Especially the song ‘Beautiful’. But on most of the album he was using the weird accent, and the album was mostly about murdering people. It missed something. My

I met this girl a year or so ago in the MySpaceIM chatroom. We spoke for a little while on there and added each other to facebook, but lost contact, or just quit talkin to eachother… She sent me a link to some of her videos on youtube, and i saw her singing this song, and instantly loved it, which sounds really REALLY good. I created a mp3 out of it and put it on my ipod, ha! :D So i wanted to share it so many others could hear it. She deserves it. :) Enjoy :)

I am so in love with this game right now! Has to probably be the coolest shooter game that i have played since Perfect Dark 64 on the Nintendo 64. I have alot of shooter games, such as Modern Warfare 1 and 2, TF2, unreal tournament 3, and so on. But none of those pulled me in the way BC2 does. I think the reason that i loved Perfect Dark 64, besides the graphics were all the weapons, simulants, and all the people that could play (only 4 actual people, but the simulants had

i went out last night around 2am and bought Michael Jackson’s “THIS IS IT”. I’ve been waiting for it, and it was released at midnight. I actually debated rather to go or not, because i wasnt sure if the walmarts would even have it out or not. And i could always go later on the next day or so. But I became very bored sitting in the house and decided to go. And here it is: I got the Limited Special edition that has a bonus DVD of 90 hours of extra footage, wh

I have loved Conan O'Brien since i first saw his show many many years ago, and have been a huge fan ever since. I love his humor, and i love how he is more willing to make fun of himself rather than others, which is rare for the late night hosts. I feel that NBC is totally screwing him, and i am proud that he is standing up to to them! Thanks to http://www.sirmikeofmitchell.com/imwithcoco/ for creating the graphic :D

I'm been wondering about God and Jesus alot lately. And I'm really confused. As many I have been brought up to believe everything the bible says and everything about God and Jesus, and there has been no other. This has always been the ONLY WAY, etc. to be honest, almost nothing they have taught me in church or anything has made any sense. Especially the entire thing about god being so loving, caring, understanding, and forgiving. Maybe this is true, but the god the Christians por

The Perfect Dark mod is out!  Perfect Dark is one of my most favorite games of all time. And I don't even like games that much. I used to play this games for hours on the Nintendo 64 with friendsa nd everyone. It really was an awesome. For the past year or so i've been waiting for this mod for half life 2, that totally redoes half life 2 and makes it into Perfect Dark. Everytime that I went to their site the mod was sitll private and in testing. I went there the other day and it
