What annoys me about being an Xbox.com MVP
It isnt the fact that I am an Xbox MVP, that I hate. NOOOOO Way. The product is so cool, the team that I moderator with (most are also MVPs) are amazing, my MVP lead is the freakin BEST YOU CAN GET, and the Xbox Product team is probably the best team...

My view on the NBA Dress Code
I think there is nothing wrong with it. The NBA wants them to look professional, ok. The NBA said that it has to be "slacks" and a "a collard shirt". Now, I am watching "Classic Now" on ESPN (as I type this) and the ideas I am hearing is DUMB. Why cant...
Couple of things on my mind.
1) Thanks Gary. I really do appreciate it. 2) I have a post that I want to do, where Scoble had a MASSIVE post. Really...this thing was huge, and chock full of pwnage and good points. I am still thinking how I want to do it. 3) Ive noticed I had alot...
When I was a young(er) Xbox'er. (Its actually really about how my thought process works.)
First, to understand how I remembered this story, you have to go into my mental process. My mental process is what I like to call "linking". I don't know if that is the technical term, or if a technical term even exists. Basically, my mental process requires...

My Barry Bonds Rant
So...somehow it all relates to steroids...with Barry Bonds. Who knew? So, he came back and hit 3 homers in 3 games. Big deal right? What about that Cleveland rookie thats hit like 6 in 5 games, and is leading his team to an AL Central title or Wild Card...
What has my attention?
So, Xbox made their announcement last night (12 am EST)...well, I guess today, because it was Sept 15th in Japan already. But anyways, they announced their release dates. Nov 22nd, 2005 for the North American Region. More information at Major Nelson ...
Open Doors
Why dont people close doors? I am sitting here in "study table" and a girl (on my team) walks in and...doesnt close the door. What is that about? I hate that...when doors are like, 2 inches from being closed. They just swing open and closed ALL the time...
Things I hate
1) People trying to tell me to drink. a)"Ok, once a month"...uhhh...NO. b) "You are telling me you arent going to drink, you have 4 years". Did I studder much? I DONT DRINK. c) Another drinking or why arent you drinking reference...yea, you get the point...
That was hard.
I am up in Syracuse now, and my mother just left. It was hard to hold back the tears. I will admit it...I cried. One of the hardest things to do. I try not to think of family this way. So, this is the end of the post. Sorry.
My last night in my Town
I am going up tp Syracuse tomorrow to attend Syracuse University. I will be swimming for them as well. Tonight (8/22) is going to be hard. As I have said in a previous post , I lost my father at a very young age. Since then, I have essentially adopted...
The new "Age" Crusade
So, in the forums I see an “Age Crusade” brewing, where people are basing problems based on young kids. Now, many of them are saying there should be 2 seperate services, one for under-18 and one for 18+. See...the problem I have with that...
