| Spark of WoW interest....

1) My co-worker is a SERIOUS 2v2 and 3v3 player, and he's in the guild. Like, serious.

2) We have a 10 man ventrillo server.

3) Paladins are probably the strongest single class there is. BUT REMEMBER, certain class and class-combos are just better at beating others, which means SOMETIMES you will get pwned. Also, you will be beat by people with better gear, so get used to it!

4) I'm a priest, and we have another really good priest and pally healer in the guild. If you wanna be the boss, run the show, and yell at other people for not doing their jobs right, you should roll a protection warrior, protection pally, or feral druid and be a tank.

5) I think you are underestimating the challenge and thrill of doing heroic dungeons and raids, not to mention the sweet gear drops and achievements...

6)I'm leveling a protection warrior right now, pretty easily. They have really made the trip from 1 - 70 fairly quick.

7) You can do a faction and server transfer of your character for a fee of I think $30 each (so $60 total: $30 for faction, and $30 for server) if you are interested in that.

8) Did you play to 80? I thought you quit at the 60 cap.

9) Here's a link to my main toon Acererak! Check 'The Old Guard' guild link from my toon profile and look at 'Black' for the arena pro of the guild.

10) Do it!
Interested in doing some serious Arena 2v2? 3v3 or 5v5? that's the only way I'll play that game. Evar. but I wonder if that's already overdone and there's not much to explore on that. Plus my characters on a totally different server so grinding my guy up to 80 again would be the suck unless there's some serious noob Pleveling and goodies from ur guildies and if we use voice chat programs.

oh oh oh and if you give me a million bucks.

And if you get blizzard to make paladins better. (but i'd probably restart as a priest just because this won't happen and priests or druids are waaay better at healing)

And if you get rudy to play his druid again so I can smite him with my paladin.

I'd probably also have to buy a new 20" LCD and a desktop, but that would be refreshing from this laptop so i would do that on my own.
I have cable now and have also watched some horrible shows. More often than not though I lean towards science/history/food programming which isn't too offensive. I do try to catch MTV's Jersey Shore though because that is possibly the best bit of reality television ever. I can't describe it but it is the ultimate. So good. Oh god, one day when I first got cable I got sucked into this horrible marathon of Intervention and Hoarders... my soul was so drained after that. Don't do fucking drugs or keep moldy newspapers in your house, that's horrible.

Eric is the king of WoW! Where were you when me and Johnny were the big addicts!? I'm still into console gaming. Assassin's Creed 2 is really awesome, as is Dragon Age. I'll give WoW another trial pretty soon and I'll check out that server. Everytime I do though, my interest fades sooner and sooner. It's all about being in a guild, so that's rad you're getting to see that side of things.

| Two Douches Break Stuff: The Series

I saw about 7 minutes of the episode where they break a carnival up. It was some of the worst TV ever.

My 7 minutes in summation: "Carnivals have attractions, one of them is the fortune teller machine, it is made of wood, metal and glass. Can these guys use their feet to kick this machine apart? Let's find out! (man kicks glass with foot, shattering the glass, replayed in slo-mo from different angles, 5 - 9 times) Yes!"

I have been playing a lot of WoW and having a blast. Level 80 is a totally different beast altogether, playing in a guild with folks that are nice and run dungeons is totally fun, and the new patch that dropped last week that gives cross-server random dungeon groups has changed the face of the game in very significant, and fun ways. If you are at all interested in picking it up again, I'm on a pvp server "Bonechewer", on the horde side, and have two active characters Acererak and Robbase. Leveling is a breeze now too, and you can get mounts at lvl 20!

I know I'm just spinnin' my wheels here, but I gotta try, right?

Denis is in the guild, but Dragon Age has kept Kasiopaeia at level 23 for some time now... :)

| I feel dumb

I spent a LOT of time yesterday watching the G4 network, aka the Ninja Warrior Channel. Also saw a show where two guys just destroy stuff (they spent yesterday's episode ripping apart a tour bus). What the hell?
