I say

There comes a time in a very person's life, that they realize something. . .

That time is not now for me.

Sports-

What is going on in the world of sports today? Everybody is out for themselves when it comes to sports players. Don't get me wrong, they are great athletes, but once there a time when sports had to do with a team? Ah, the good old days.

Mainly this has to do with a certain situation with a certain player that has been on sports channels, because he is talked about all the time. He wants a bigger contract, does he stipulate what he can do for the team what or what he can show off after making a touchdown.

Sports, I thought was to strengthen yourself out in the world, and also learn teamwork. Isn't that where the terminology came from.

You know the commercials, "If there were no sports," yes, if there were no sports, we would have other analogies, probably about bees or something. No team or what not.

Sports are supposed to help a person grow and mature. You watch some professional players, and you can see them being role models. You look at some of the other players, physically fit and can pretty much wipe the floor with an opponent, but get them in front of a mic, I don't even look up to them.

I am a fan of sports, but the biggest thing is singling out that one individual and sticking a spotlight on the person. Don't do it, it's dumb. Focus on the team, don't focus on one player. You do that, that person pretty much becomes the superstar of the team, whether good or bad.

Just don't do it.

What happened to the water?

That title has nothing to do with this random section, all right? I don't care if you say, yes it does.

DON'T CARE.

I was going to start off with something, but decided, all go in a different direction.

Getting older.

I'm losing my hair, it sucks, but I am. I'm trying some regrowing stuff, to bring it back. I like my four different natural colors. It's great, I don't want it to leave and my noggin is all bald.

Some of my friends are older than me, I will be a quarter of a century old this year. It sounds bad, but all it means is I'll be 25.

People have a tendency to feel weird once they hit that 25 mark, because then it's 30, then 40 and up. Then it calms down once you hit 60, and life becomes interesting again? Come on, life is always interesting, it's whether or not you want to have fun.

Look at most of my friends, and myself for that matter. We still play video games, especially INTELLIVISION. Snafu anyone? I mean you are as young as you feel. I'm 25, I act younger, and if I shave, I look younger too. That's why I'm growing by beard whatever thing again, so I can look somewhat my age.

One of my buddies, was not happy when I called him a quarter of a century old. No, no, he didn't like that at all. Big whoopie do.

Who cares how old you are. It happens, it's called LIFE. Get used to it.

This was actually pretty fun to write. I turned corners, making people think where the heck is he going with this thing? It's all in good fun.

Yup.

Computer Crash

You know what happens to a kid (me) when he loses his computer for a month and can't do anything?

Answer: Flip out and look for a place to use a computer. It sucks.

Well now I have my computer back, and I'm happy. I have all new gizmo and gadgets of plenty.

Saddest part, I lost my documents and pictures. It saddens me a little, oh well. I have other pictures of my friends, it's cool.

Movies! Where are they going.

Okay, probably not my best random thought, but go with it, because it's been awhile since I've actually written here.

Lately, mainly all things under PG-13, well suck.

Also, a lot of the movies put in those stars that will boost revenue because of the draw of hormones. Take for instant the Herbie movie. Hi, is this movie about Herbie, or what's her face that does almost all Disney Movies?

Second we have The Perfect Man, starring Heather Locklear and another Disney chick. I don't feel like naming names, because you know who they are. The only reason I would see this movie, is one: I better have a date, or two, because of Heather Locklear, she what, 50 and she still looks that good.

Movies have been on the slow end this year and in some years past. Mostly the chick flick movies have been recuts of movies that have been made about six months apart. Could people understand, in order to have a good chick flick movie, it needs to be different than the last movie that was out. I don't care if it was made by another company, they need to know what they are getting into. Take for instance, what was it, Chasing Liberty, starring Mandy Moore. Good actress, almost saw this movie because of A Walk To Remember, but I didn't. Glad I held off, people didn't like it. Then what six/seven months later, First Daughter starring Katie Holmes, also whom I thing is a very attractive young lady, even though a year older than me, movi comes out. I thinking, come on, wait! Wait for people to get over movies that sucked.

Now take this, The Notebook, solid, solid movie. It ranks, not that high, but high enough such as A Walk To Remember, what's the gap there, years, my friends, years.

Let's move on: Superhero movies. Okay, I enjoy them as much as my other friends do namely John. My take, I don't want it to be campy that came from a comic book, because comics are comics, these are movies adapted from comics, make it real, comics are definitly fantasy worlds. Take for instance Batman Begins, Nolan nailed realism. Bryan Singer in X-Men 1 and 2, nailed realism, keeping it real. I do hope Singer gets Superman right, I think based on all those blogs I've been watching, OUTSTANDING.

Action movies: DONE, they are done, unless they have a good back story. Such as: Man Under Fire. That was good. No more, robots, enough with the futuristic hoop-lah. No Terminator, no I ROBOT, no more. Wait for a bit. Transformers is coming out in 2006 or somewhere in the next few years, I'm gonna see it, it better not suck.

TV to Movies: Dukes of Hazzard, what would John think? To tell you the truth, I don't know. Jessica Simpson as Daisy Duke, HELLO! She's blonde, sure she has a body, which Dave believes is untrue based off information we read. Couldn't they have gotten a brunette that was from the south? Yeah, but hey get the singer star that doesn't understand TUNA.

Movies in general, right now thanks to Batman Begins, things are starting off well for summer blockbusters. War of the Worlds is on it's way, by the way, can they stop making alien movies for awhile?

Make something dramatic and bold. And no more Lucas movies for awhile. I give George and Steven props for making sure on a good Indiana Jones IV script. Which means 2007 or 2008 whenever Harrison is available.

Movies are great, but a story that gives it meaning is better. Disney understands it, it has C.S. Lewis stuff going on, good for them. Warner Brothers, Fox and Sony have superhero stuff, good for them, keep it realistic PLEASE.

Action, GO AWAY, we don't need it anymore. Especially Robots.

TV to Movies: If Friends comes out as a movie, I leave that to John to write a letter.

Thanks for reading this long random rant. Leave comments.

Want More? GMAIL Delivers

I'm going into my GMAIL account, and what happens when it loads up to the page. GMAIL gives more space, because it just turned one today. No, this isn't an April Fool's prank, at least I hope not from GMAIL. That would be sick and wrong.

Google just keeps coming up with ways to deliver on something that was good all ready, now it just keeps getting better.

SWEET, Thanks Google.

Engagement Rings

Ah one of life's simple joys, right? HAHA Yeah right.

I was up in Renton going to a ring store and oh boy was that fun. I got to look at engagement rings.

I would like to mention I do like jewelry, I don't wear it, but a lot of jewelry is absolutely beautiful. Many of the ones that are considered sparkly that have a lot of jewels, such as diamonds and what not, well to me they are stupid and should have never been made.

In all reality, jewelry seems to be more for the people that want to own them and can afford to own them. Especially diamond rings. To which this tale begins.

I'm up at the jewelry store in Renton, again, checking out engagement rings, as I have told before. Great rings, solitaire, probably my favorite, because it is only one stone. I've always seen rings before, but not really like this. You get to watch people as they are talking to the sales representatives and I just think, "this is for a great purpose, getting the ring for the girl of your dreams." That and, "why do people really want to spend this money on something so small?" Well, I understand somehow. Back to the story.

I'm looking and they have so many rings, and you have to find that right one. You think about your girl in your life, you have to picture her, because she isn't with you, because this is a special moment. Then you have that idea in your head, and you see her, the color of her skin, how big or small her hand is and how long or short it is. Here we go.

Is the ring too small? Is the ring too big? What's her size? Should I have one diamond or multiple diamonds? Can I afford it? Oh look, a blue diamond, that's beautiful. "It's a microwaved yellow diamond." Microwaved diamond, dang it still looks good, I don't care. That was my thought. I'm not a traditional guy, I mean I am, but I like to be a little different when it comes to engagement rings. Anyway, on with the story.

So much has to go in for a guy to find that right ring, stone and any other thing that has to go with that engagement ring. To me, it's on the verge of sad, but what do I know, I don't have a girlfriend yet, that's okay. At least when I see a ring, I know if it sucks or not. I'm very proud.

To end this, fellas. When looking for a ring, have a big budget ready, because you may want that sale ring, then you find out, it's sucks, I mean really really sucks. Be aware. Know the color of jewelry she wears, talk to her about other jewelry besides a ring, so you can get some in-depth ideas on what to look for. Then you know if she likes yellow/white/platinum color better than the other. If it's a serious relationship, talk about stones. I mean bring up something if you are watching a show and you see a giant 300 karat diamond. By the way, that just shows how much money they have, doesn't matter if they like it, my personal opinion.

It's tough. It will only get better. Enjoy engagement ring searching.

A thought from the editor

Okay, I haven't written in this one since last month. It was due for an update.

Here we go. Again, it has nothing to do with this site, which is kind of sad. However, it has to do with the other site I write too, my superhero site.

I just thought of the idea. What I'm going to do, is when something big comes up where ideas should be given that's what I'm going to do for the article(s). It's one of those, go ahead and comment, maybe something good will come out of it.

Such as the case with my EA Games tribute. I really hope people put good ideas down, if they want, or just general thoughts on what I put down

Enjoy
