| Hello everybody. Time for an update. Crazy I know, but if you've been outta the loop somehow, then some big news for you. I've moved to Orlando, Florida. Yes it's true. I finally did it. Now the only way possible for someone not to know is if you've been living under a rock, or I talk to you like once a year. So I'm going to assume you are caught up on current events and not explain the events up to this point because lets face it; you should already know, and I'm feeling rather lazy at the moment. It's been 3 weeks since I moved down here, and I'm kinda starting to settle in. It' been a little rough, but school is about to start for me, and I'm counting the days. Cabin fever sux major ass and I'm ready to get the gears moving in overdrive. Some people think I'm crazy to have cabin fever at all. "Why aren't you out at the beach?" they say. Or "Why aren't you talking to hot girls?" Or just "Why aren't you out at all?" The simple answer is... I'm ajusting people! I've just left my home of 22 years, and all my family and friends. Basically everything dear to me is 1500 miles away. It's takes some getting used to. Also it's been too cold to go to the beach. Yes that's correct. It's either been raining every other day, or there have been lows of 39 degrees, with days mostly hovering in the lower 50's. Not exactly jumping in the ocean kinda weather. For the not talking to hot girls... I don't know anyone here for starters. I don't even know any of the people living across, above, below, or just somewhere in the adjacent vicinity. And I'm not the type of guy to go knocking on my neighbor's door and be like "What's up? Wanna hang out?" And I'm pretty sure most of them aren't the type to be bringing me fruit baskets welcoming me to apt. C. Now for the going out part. I have been out. Within the first 2 weeks I've located my school, UCF, and every Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, EB Games, Game Stop, Toys R Us, Barnes and Noble, Taco Bell, Shopping Mall, and Cienplex within a 15 mile radius of my apt. complex. I've also been inside and wandered around all of them, and they make up the same places I went to in OKC. I don't prefer to see movies by myself, and I've done enough walking to cover a good months worth. So for the past week I've been getting my apt. cleaned up and everything put away, which I did in the first 2 days. The rest consist of watching TV. I think I've set a personal record for watching TV and flipping through channels. Oh and big surprise. I haven't played a single game since I got down here. No BS. I just recently got all my consoles hooked up, and I've been watching Family Guy on my PS3 for the most part. My sleeping habits are also totally outta wack. I get to bed about 6... in the A.M. And wake up at 6 in the P.M. That will be fixed in a hurry because I start class in a week. So there it is. I miss home, I'm lonely, and I want to bring everyone here. But unfortunately I can't do that because they have lives to live too. Who woulda thought? When school starts I will have something to keep me busy in a big way. I will be meeting clones of myself more or less, and I will be one step closer in moving into the industry I want to be apart of. And with that, good night all.

| This is a story, of waiting 31 hours in line, in the (it's freakin'
freezing in here Mr. Bigglesworth!) kind of cold here. I, like any self
respecting gamer, am totally aware of the launch of the Playstation 3,
that occured at 12:01 A.M. Friday morning. I had everything planned out
to go wait in line the Thursday morning prior to launch. I had work
covered on Friday, though Thursday... kinda had to call in : ) and
prepared myself for no food or drink for a good prtion of the day. So I
go into work Wednesday morning and get a call from my friend Alex
saying people had started lining up the night before for the
Playstation 3. I basically reply back with a #$&* #$^*@# &#$@*(
#*?????????????. Or at least something close to that. I of course start
going crazy and want to beat the crap out of something because I know I
just got screwed out of getting one. He tells me they are going to the
Duncan Wal-mart to get in line, since there is no line at all. And if I
can get off soon I can go with them. However I'm in a closing section
at work. Which means that I'm probably not getting out until about
4:30. So as you can probably guess by now, I was pissed! No...
extremely pissed! I was running around work like I had hot coals in my
shoes, and bouncing off every wall in my vicinity. I'm trying to get
out, but nobody wants to move up and take my section for me, nor would
the managers let me go. No, no, I get to serve tables their damn
endless soup, salad, breadstick crap! 3 o' Clock rolls around and we
are completely dead, and I have no tables at all. I walk up to Rick,
one of my managers, and say ok... i wanna go...now... PS3 to get. You
have 4 other servers, and we are dead. So hows about you let me go eh?
He looks around, has one of the hostesses talk to him then says,
alright, if you really wanna
go, then I guess you can, with a smirk on his face. Apparently he
thought it was funny.... but anyway.... SCORE!!! I ran outta there
faster than...... well, it was fast. Sped home, took a shower, packed,
and got to Norman about 4: 20 to meet with everybody. We finally got on
the road with me as the driver, Minh as the Navigator, and Alex for
well... moral support. I was going about 85-90 MPH, if I thought I
could get away with it. But soon we realized that Alex had the police
radar in his car as well as the Pike Pass.... that's one big DOH! Oh
well... life goes on. I followed the signs and Minh's navigation to get
to a toll road that was supposed to be a short cut to Duncan. HAH. So
much for short cuts. We got to the toll booth and were like cool, we're
going in the right direction. But after that.... well... we don't know
what the hell happened. We were driving for what seemed like forever
and didn't see any raod signs or anything. And the speed limit kept
changing from 65 to 45 constantly. WTF? Then we saw a Wal-Mart on the
horizen, then we all cheered, though for what reason I don't know
because it obviously wasn't the right Wal-mart. Then Alex said "Hey,
I've seen that street before.... oh crap...." Some how, and we don't
don't have a clue... we ended up going in a very large u-turn and
landed in Mustang..... Alex's home town. We all kinda looked in horrow
with a simultaneous OMFG..... We don't know how it happened, but deny
it ever did to this day, which is 2 days after. And even though it's
Alex's home town, we were kinda lost.... and spent a bit of time trying
to get back onto the highway. We finally managed to get back on the
highway, and in the right direction, after about an hour of apparently
being retarded and not knowing north from south. We called the Duncan
store again to double check what was going on. WHAT? 8 PEOPLE IN LINE
NOW?????
&*^&*^%%^$^%$*$&*()&#@^!@*()^%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
was about how that went. Only other small town store that was close was
Chickasha. We made the call. Nobody in line! That was the go ahead for
me to drive like a bat outta hell! We finally made it to Chickasha, and
guess what? NO BODY IN LINE AT WAL-MART! That brought about quite a few
hell yeahs. We stocked up on food (bread and water) some extra winter
wear, and sleeping bags and it was off to the front of the store to go
to sleep and look like a bunch of hobos. People kept looking at us like
we were crazy. And we probably had a 10 second conversation with
everyone that came in and out of the store. "What Y'all her for?" they
would ask. And yes just like that.We either got a good look, or a look
that they thought we were totally insane.We think a few people
complained about the the hobos camping out, because one of the managers
came out and basically tried to give us the boot. He told us the line
would start "sometime tomorrow." uh huh.... riiight. I knew he would
come back so I brought the car around to pack it up. Before I did that
though Mr. Mark decided to pay us another visit. After another little
arguement we got back in the car, pissed to hell, and tried to come up
with another plan. We were the first ones there. We were going to get
our PS3's dammit! With nothing to really do at the moment, food sounded
like a good option. After stuffing our faces at McDonalds we went back
and wandered around te store for like 15 minutes. Then the PA came on
and it was none other than mark announcing the official PS3 line was
starting outside by the lawn and garden area. Without any hesitation we
took off like a bunch of rabbid dogs going after food! Then he came on
again and no running or you don't a place in line. WTF?? Creepy..... We
managed to get to the line first with a couple guys trailing behind us.
We finally did it! We made them start the official line! Hey it was
either that or we go back to sleeping in front of the store and be the
hobo store greeters for 2 days! With that I will come to a close. Part
2 if the insanity will be up later for your reading enjoyment. | | |

| The characters for the upcoming Transformers movie were finally revealed Friday morning, August 18. Here is a list of the characters and a few random notes from the screen writers who made the announcement.
Autobots
Optimus Prime- The King of the road!
Bumblebee- He's the same underdog character we always knew and loved. Except he's a Camaro in the new movie.
Jazz- He's eager to take on the Decepticons.
Ratchet- Ratchet, who was an ambulance in the cartoon, will appear in a new form.
Ironhide- The muscle. A though soldier who can make any Transformer bust an o -ring with just his stare.
Decepticons
Megatron- He's been portrayed as pure evil, but we're trying to get a little bit behind the evil in this movie. ..... He has a slightly less idealistic version of what he thinks humanity is worth.
Starscream- Always secretly plotting to dethrone Megatron.
Brawl- An extremely pissed of Decepticon.
Bonecrusher- The closest thing to a Constructicon in the film.
Barricade- The hunter of the group -- a cop car.
Scorpinok- The closest thing to Beast Wars or a Dinobot in the film.
Frenzy- A smaller form able to infiltrate spaces -- a stealth spy.
Blackout- The guy who takes out our ability to fight back.
My take- Great choices for the Autobots, though Ratchet I never expected to be used. Why not add Blaster and Mirage to the primary group?!
The Decepticons on the other hand are a mixed bag. Megatron and Starscream are givens of course. Can't have the Decepticons without those two.
As for the rest.... Brawl??? A random charater from the Combaticon group??? At least they got his personality right.
Bonecrusher... is not a Constructicon. But the closest thing to it. WTF???
Who the hell is Barricade???
Scorpinok... I'm not even sure what to say about him.
Frenzy... another random choice. And where is his commander?!!!!!!!
And once again.... who the hell is Blackout???
And on my final note... where in the effing hell is Soundwave?!!!!!!!!!!! I'm pissed!!!!!!
