| Keep the target audience in mind

I wouldn't mind if they also added a little eye-wash cup to it as well. I mean why not, right? Besides, it could double as a nugget trowel/scraper.

All that thing needs is a toothbrush attachment and it's golden.

I like the back-scrubber option. I've always wanted something that can be used for wiping my own ass AND scrubbing my back.

| Decline of Western Culture

If this isn't a sign that our society is in decline...

21th century tech

I'm stocking up on canned foods and heading for my underground bunker.
just curious, anyone know anyone that works for GE energy? Long shot... thanks in advance
Have any of you guys gone to see Point Break Live when you've been in LA last couple of years!? I just heard about it and it sounds hilarious. Been going since 2007ish and right now it's at the Dragonfly every Fri/Sat. Everytime they pick a new random person from the audience to be Keanu and they have to read their part from cue cards to simulate the power of Keanu Reeves. It's supposed to be hilarious, going in the next couple weeks, I'll let you guys know.

Anyone want to get together for the 4th or 5th of July for beers and gamin'? I don't have a barbecue, but I do have a delicious Popeye's Chicken nearby!

| Kayak Report

I went! It was hard and/or awesome. I ended up going to the Long Beach one because I have a big meetup group going in a couple of weeks, so I wanted to get the lay of the land. It's far into Long Beach. Like, getting to Long Beach Airport from my house is like 20-25 minutes, but this place is DEEP in there away from the freeway, so kinda too far. I didn't roll! At the end, when I was getting out of the kayak I had gnarly wobbly legs and fell to my knees in waist deep water. Madness. Otherwise, I was SO paranoid of flipping the whole time, I just played it cool. Lasted about an hour then called it quits cuz I was spent. I def need to work on my form - couple times I slammed into the sides of some rich people's boats - yikes. Then I'd paddle all fast away trying not to get caught. That area is really nice - has these canals and it's called Naples and feels like Europe. No waves, most of the time the water was like glass. I had to cruise through some people taking sailing lessons, so that was cool.

You guys should try it!

So tired.

| Dollars = dollars

$49.95 = $49.95!

(I think)
How much does that crazy price translate into american-bux!?

Fuck man, I don't wanna roll over EVER! Dude, it is cold as ALL shit out here! Now I'm scared... (And I'm hella hung-over, so might just hafta go to the gym instead!)

| BAM!

Pre-order, bitches.

I ain't gonna wait until the US only release happens sometime in September, f that. I will however pick up my DS and possibly PSP versions then. And then there is the 360 version to think about...

I say we all get the international version June 26th! Digital download, so you will be missing the kewl box that it comes in, and possibly some advertisements for other games stuck in the box too, and the media itself, and you will be paying the same price as full retail, but hey, you save an entire tree with each digital download.

I have already ordered mine, so I will see you on the pitches come the 26th, bitches!

KAYAKING

I went with Leslie and her cousin around King Harbor (which you might think about over Long Beach, dude) and had fun for sure. It is tranquil as F, certainly fun to see the harbor from a different view, nice to be connected to nature a little bit, and a little bit of a workout to boot!

My core was the most worked out part of my body because of the balance issues. A lot of stabilization from over-thinking my balance, not so much rockin arm workout because I think that comes later once the balance is second nature.

I only rolled once and it came from out of nowhere. It was just one of those things where my mind wandered and I think I forgot what I was doing so my body just decided to lean the wrong way and into the drink I went. I avoided Jaws, but I assume he was close because that is who lives in water that is murky.

And remember to either rent a locker for your keys, wallet and phone, or get one of those waterproof, floating bags to go around your neck! No unnecessary sacrifices of personal belongings to Poseidon!

| Whoa... better use the wayback machine

This Outlook reminder popped up today. I thought it was pretty sweet.

well just be wary he doesn't hide the paddles in some obscure hole in the ground that there is absolutely NO clue as to how to find the paddles! Then you'll KNOW who he is.

8 bucks is an awesome deal! I think i had to pay $100+ for the lame lesson. But you sure you have all the floatation and safety gear and shit like that? Your not going with anyone? I'm sure they'll tell you where the beginner zones are.

You will be flippin over at least once. Dude, well, ok... be safe man. It's probably better if you had an instructor on the first time out. Or I'm sure you can drag a lady friend who knows how to float your kayak! har... yeah, kayaks all uppor torso and arms buddy.... unless its the kayaks for armless vets.

enjoy!
That'd be hilarious if I got stuck begging for change on a KAYAK! Ahahaha. :) Yeah, this is just in the harbor so I don't think I'll have to worry about gnar gnar waves or anything epic. But the weather is crummy - not rainy, just overcast. Oh, I'm trying to find more interesting ways to work out other than the gym. I'm hiking about 3-4 days a week but thats just my legs. Seems like kayaking will be good for the upper body - let's see how it goes when I try it once :) NO LESSONS! I'm just renting one and going!! $8 bucks an hour, should be fun. kayakrentals.net

Ken Williams was the guy in charge of Sierra Online along with his wife/punching-bag Roberta Williams. Probably just Jon might remember that.
