Lintendo

Been posting for the past couple of days and already don't like the layout I have going on. I figure what I'll do is just post what's on my mind when I have some time to do so.

Invited Other Joe to join me and he'll start posting his thoughts soon.



Chatted with Chris on the phone today. We talked about how our moms called Nintendos Lintendos and how no matter what we said, they could never figure out the lingo.

"What kind of CDs does your Lintendo use?"

"It's a Nintendo, Mom."

"Right, yea. Which kind of CDs? The big ones or the small ones?"

"It doesn't use CDs. It uses cartridges."

"That's what I said. Which ones? Big or little?"

"I don't know."

"You don't know the size of the CD?"

"Mom, here, this is what they look like. It's a Nintendo cartridge."

Days later...

"I got you a new CD for your Lintendo."

"Oh, cool. Wait a second. This is a Gameboy game."

"Yeah, for the Lintendo."

"Yeah. Well, it's too small."

"That's fine."

"Thanks, Mom."

Joe out.

People Scare Me

Call me the devil but, I can't care enough about this. Well, I care a bit anyways to make a post about it. I get an email from someone who I haven't spoken to in years. This person tells me to "say a prayer for them". I almost thought it was spam. Like "African President wants to send you 50,000 pounds of gold bullion" type of shit. But I read it and say, "hell, no. This is real". Something about basically, this person is dying or thinks they're going to die and just waiting for test results and wants us (those put on the email) to keep them in our prayers. I'm thinking, if you're that far gone, just die already. If you're sending an atheist a request for prayer via email, just throw in the towel. Maybe I'm just a bad person but, I really couldn't care any less if I tried. Told Hop about it and asked him if he thinks I'm a bad person. He says, "Shit, I don't care." And I think that pretty much sums that up. Joe out.

Toothbrushing Incident

Just finished up brushing my teeth. A fucking spritz of toothpaste shot up into my eye. Just what I've always wanted. A minty fresh blink.

Daily Breakdown

What happened today?

Same as yesterday mostly...at least with going to work and all. Pretty all right day mostly. Had a chat with Hop some more on the podcast. He keeps thinking I'm going to do something to him with cheese. He has strange convictions. Had a fella from work (Bramsey) speak with him and get him in a better mood about it. Still don't know if he'll sign on or not. Hope he will.

What's going on now?

Planning on heading to the game room and doing something. Not quite sure what. Dragon Age II is getting a little meh. Just doesn't feel as deep as the previous one. I'm sure I'll figure something out.

Looking ahead

Figured Brad and Breanne will be here Wednesday at the latest. I'll be able to spend a few days with them before heading off to Vegas. Oh yea. Heading to Vegas on the 13th. That should be a nice holiday from monotony. Will be sure to update with the happenings.

Get on with it then



That's all really. I received my Family Guy DVDs. See, Amazon had this sale on all the Family Guy DVDs. $12.99 per season and I thought, "well sure, why not." Such a bad idea. I have an addiction. I just buy things and have no use for them. These DVDs will most likely wind up under the bed, unwrapped and just rot away. But hey, at least I've got that out of the way. Probably won't need to buy those again...least until they're on Blu-ray.

Joe out.

Starting over

Hey all. Thought I'd come back to the blog. Went ahead and deleted all previous posts. I think I had, oh, about 20 some odd all about God knows what or cared about. So, I supposed I'd just start the whole thing over. So, yep. That's about that.

What happened today?

Well, work. Of course. That's about a daily thing anymore. Well, not quite. Mostly daily. 5 out of 7 days anyways. I figure "mostly daily" is a fair enough statement. That's going well enough. I enjoy myself for the most part.



I've been talking with Hop (Hop's a fella I'll let you guys in on a bit later) about starting up a Podcast. I'm thinking that'd be a fun way to waste time. We've been talking about a radio show for ages but, after listening to the Ricky Gervais show as of late, figure Podcasting might just be the way to go. He's reluctant. He fears it'll be all about cheese. See...he hates cheese. Yea. Strange guy. More on that later as well.

What's going on now?

And yea, other than that, I'm playing Dragon Age II. Yes. I know everyone's already beaten it but shit, I just got around to beating Origins so, shut the hell up.



Looking ahead

In other news, my little bro Bradley beans is moving down with his woman. He's a good, old fried of mine. Looking forward to that. They should be here by Wednesday or Thursday. We'll see how that goes.

As well, looking forward to what has been deemed as "Game Nights" with Chris...and whoever else decides to join us. We get together every Wednesday and Thursday morning, around 1 to 5 and enjoy ourselves. Chris is an old friend...the oldest I've got nowadays. Known him for about 13 years. Yep.

Get on with it then

Yea, yea... Otherwise, we'll see how the Podcast idea pans out. Chris and Brad are on board as well as Other Joe and Will from work. I've got a book coming in called "Podcasting for Dummies" coming in. Hope that shines more light on the subject for me. Really hoping Hop signs on to the idea. It wouldn't be the same without his...er...insight? Yea.

Anyways, that's all for now. Joe out.
