Three ThingsOctober 28, 2012 by

Greetings fellow Decepticons,

Holy shnikes!  I have not posted a blog for almost a quarter of a year.  That's probably a record.  What happened, you say?  Lots of sh!t with the appropriate ups and downs that go with it.  I won't make y'all cry with the deets.  I wanted to post a quick reaction to some stuff before having to head out the door for some errands.

I.  The media finally put up a story about how video games can help with anger issues ( in players rather than stoking them.  I would always say it's better to crack some virtual skulls rather than getting drunk and looking for a real fight with real consequences.  It's a complicated issue, but highlighting some benefits to gaming is a step in the right direction.

II.  Richard Sherman of the Seattle Seahawks is such a big TransFormers fan that he's calling himself Optimus Prime now.  Maybe it's time for the NFL to hold auditions for which players can refer to themselves as Soundwave and Grimlock next!

III.  While everybody on the east coast is wailing about hurricane Sandy mutating into the next "perfect storm" I'm actually grateful for its arrival.  Why?  The TVs are finally not featuring so much election crap.  A-frickin-MEN!  The news is so busy predicting how bad this storm is going to be that they have stopped mentioning every poll, commercial, and stump speech being made by the candidates.  The only thing I'm worrying about is if the winds and rain will spoil the midnight launch of AC3.

Never a dull moment.  Am I right?  PEACE!
