I don’t suppose it occurred to anyone that banging on walls at 3:45 in the morning was a pretty bad idea in an apartment complex. Last night, I got woken up by this incredibly loud banging against walls, and as soon as I went out my front door to walk next door to tell the person to ask them to stop, several others were also out of their doors, including my next door neighbor, while the banging continued, so that immediately ruled them out. It continued for a good 20 minutes before finishing finally, and I could go back to sleep.

However, one good thing I did also occurred yesterday evening. After work, I treated myself to a nice dinner out, and also went and bought Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. I must say, I was pleasantly impressed with it, since it’s filled with a lot of new songs, not just from Aerosmith, but others like Joan Jett & THe Blachearts, who act as opening bands for Aerosmth performances at some of the classic venues throughout their career. And speaking of which, one thing they also do is they have live interviews with the band, interspersed in between each round of the game. Plus, before youcan play as Aerosmith each round, you’ve gotta play both songs as each opening act, which is a nice little twist on each game.

I definitely plan on bringing it with me to my nephew’s birthday part in a couple weeks for some fun with the family.

One of the things I truly enjoy about World of Warcraft is the fact I get to meet new people on there, as well as keep in touch with some of my old buddies from back in the day. In fact, several of my good friends, the ones who play World of Warcraft anyways, are all in the same guild on World of Warcraft, called Civilian. One of the items that I decided to do for the guild was create a website for the guild members, to not only make sure everyone was on the same page with things like raid times, but also just to shoot he breeze, make each other aware of anything that might be going on, game rumors, etc., or to help each other out and ask about stuff.

I finally got around to setting it up today @ http://www.civilianstormscale.com. The reason Stormscale is in the name, for those who don’t play the game is because it happens to be the server we have our main characters on. Feel free and check it out. Oh yeah, and if anyone reading this gets a hankering to start, or already plays the game, shoot me a line. My main character’s name is Slaaneesh.

Growing up in the 80’s and 90’s, I was lucky enough to grow up listening to some outstanding music, and being that I hail from a European family, I did (and still do) have a slight bent towards some European bands. I’ve spent several summers in Poland, and a number of dance & techno groups came out and were popular over in Europe before they crossed the pond, which I really liked, so I decided to compile several of their music videos for your enjoyment

2 Unlimited - Tribal Dance

Sash! - Mysterious Times (Featuring Tina Cousins)

SNAP - Rhythm Is A Dancer

Los Umbrellos - No Tengo Dinero

Culture Beat - Mr. Vain

Haddaway - What Is Love? (Most of you should already know this one )

I just checked this morning, and they’re finally shipping my Xbox 360 back to me. I shipped it in a few weeks ago to be repaired after I got the infamous Red Ring of Death.

I must admit, I’ve been having some Xbox 360 withdrawal as of late, since I’ve got a bunch of games, including Rock Band, Guitar Hero, and GTA IV, and I’d love to have it back. Lucky for me though, I kept my 360’s hard drive, so all my stuf I saved it still around

Tonight, I decided to go see Wanted, the new movie with Angelina Jolie & Morgan Freeman. It’s about a guild of assassins who protect peole, and they recruit a new member into their ranks, played by James McAvoy. I must say, I was quite pleasantly surprised by the movie. The gunplay in the movie was appropriately over the top, as were the effects. Granted, it may not win an Oscar, but it was probably a fun movie to make, as well as a fun one to watch.

Also, one item which I can cross off my list of things I wanted to see or hear before I died was to hear Morgan Freeman drop an F-Bomb in a film, and with this movie, I can cross that off my list
