Funerals. I can't stand them. I can understand the reasoning behind them, but every single one I've been to is so endlessly depressing. Again, I understand why, it's hardly a happy occasion. Unless it was Hitler's funeral. Lately I've been thinking of my own… Continue reading →
So Diablo 3 was finally announced this weekend and the internet went nuts leading up to this announcement and went critical after it was official. Forums everywhere analyzed the teaser image on Blizzard's website, trying to decipher what it could mean. Some… Continue reading →
When I was growing up, none of my friends really had stable family lives. Parents were either separated, divorced or living together unhappily. By comparison, I had a positively glowing family life. I had a mother and father who loved me, two older brothers… Continue reading →
I was reading Devin's article about the new Clone Wars trailer today and I realized that I agreed with him about his feelings towards Star Wars. I haven't paid any attention to the upcoming movie. Hell, I wasn't even aware it was this close to coming out. I… Continue reading →
