well merry x mas yall, we all old enuff cept for dennis??
Oh PS.: Jon are these the gnomes that you are talking about? becuz SIGN ME UP!

1) One time I went with Eric to Rubio's and I ordered a meal and an additional fish taco. When I went to unwrap the addtional fish taco, I soon realized that it wasn't a taco at all, but just fish. Fatass that I am, I ate the breaded fish anyway.

2) WoW, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah... I don't get it. But I am sure if I started playing, I would get addicted, so I won't start.

3) Hope Santa doesn't steal any shit from you when he comes down the chimney and invades your house. Scary man.

-Scrooge.

Happy Holidays to all and to all a good World of Warcraft

1) Rubios is 2 blocks from my house and rocks the world to its knees if you like fish tacos. So good. It's actually kinda like another addiction... I get cravings for it from time to time that need to be satisfied or I get all grumpy and murdery.

2) See thats the thing about WoW, you don't have to fight zombies to level up, infact when you reach certain levels, creatures that are lesser levels than you provide no XP at all as an incentive to get out of that area and fight something more your level or higher. Also quests work in a similar way, if you finish a quest that you are a minimal level for, you get TONS of XP, if you finish it and you are outside its XP range at all, ie its too low level for you, you get no or very little XP at all.

Its a great system for a really fun game. Quit denying yourself the pleasures!

Guitars to wowshares?

It'd be impossible to catch up to your 500th level characters by now, and I dont' really feel like going through another game killing goblins and orcs for 2 XP points, when you need 5 trillion to get to level 10. That's one thing I never understood about NWN. At 14th level, I still had to fight against zombies and skeletons which didn't really do anything except annoy me and waste my time. Pretty sure WOW is the same way.

More on the jam session: I was telling the dude (justin) about the previous band, and the cover song that was almost played (twisted sister). Not a whole lot of skills and techniques used in that song. Maybe a reunion tour should happen sometimes, however unlikely... The Fans Demand it!

Theyre opening up a Rubio's around fremont. I don't remember having rubios in LA, but everyone says it's pretty good. Guess theyre expanding pretty fast.

Crazy guitar session!

Dude, I just had a major jam session with this cool engineer/guitarist. Actually I didn't jam. He did. I thought I was good/ decent, but nope, that's not the case.

Im sure this is old news for rudy and eric, but jeez, he was teaching me all the jamming basics, pentatonic scales, minor, major, theory etc. Interesting.

ok... it's 3:49 now and I'm tired. goodnite yall.

sweet dreams.

Stuff

Well, sorry it has been so long since my last post. I have not really been in a posting mode for a while. Anyway, Ja-El Woot.com is pretty cool. I have almost bought a lot of things from there, then I realize I am poor and decide it is a bad idea. There can often be really good deals.

Motobyke. I dont know if I will get to see you. Booo. I am heading back up to SF on sunday the 26th. Id stay longer but Aimey has to be at work on Monday.

The project Elrock and I were working on was pretty epic. We just started plowing through it in one of the most productive single sessions of terraineous maximus eVaR. If I dont get to play on it, hopefully someone will.

That site is a kind of cool idea. (Although did you see their FAQ? "We anticipate profitability by 2043" :) ). I'm sure more expansion could be done with it.

Have you guys seen the trailer for the Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory? It looks crazy!

Old school new news.... har har

Have you guys seen Woot.com? kind of a neat retail concept. I've been toying with the idea of retailing on the internet. It doesn't have to sell electronics. Take woot.com and make it more into a QVC style shopping where you still only have 1 item, but change it every 10 minutes. OR have a downloadable shopper bar and stream a different item on the desktop. It's NOT invasive because the shopper bar must be turned on, like turning the channel to QVC.

Thoughts?

Can't wait to see MmmmmMMMMmmmm *breath* MMmmmMmIKE!!!

Aaron and I are working on a special little project that we think you will enjoy Mike. We spent 7 hours straight, with a 30min Rubio's break, yesterday, and I have at LEAST that much time left, but the hopes are that it will a) be finished by the 26th so Enron can relish the glory that is The Project in its finished state, or b) be finished at all!

Good Times!
