Friday's plan

Okay as I'm in one of the few areas where there wasn't a midnight Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows screening, I will be going tonight. Hopefully I like it as I said in last nights blog(that will be completed later and than posted in the timeline at its proper spot) the two movies to tell the whole story works.

I feel "Order" and "half blood Prince" could have benefitted from the two movie strategy. As could the Last Airbender (that and a different director) each book 2 movies to show the depths it took to get Ang past learning the element and for character development. A lot of the Harry Potter movies cut out vital scenes, characters, and events for expediency even though said events helped shape who the beloved characters would become.

Ron Weasley's courage when all hope seems lost

Hermione's slight touch of vanity which shows that she's more than just a wanna be authoritarian

Neville's pride

Dobby's resourcefulness

Kreachers deviousness

All of these characters played vital parts and roles in the books, Ron and Hermione of course are the Main characters, Dobby, Neville and Kreacher are second line characters who always seem to come through when needed. Even Kreacher(he may have come through 1st for the bad guys but as Olivander said "Great things, may have been terrible but great none the less"). Sometimes I think Hollywood forgets how we got here, how as long as you give us a good story we will sit and be amazed.

This ain a Hollywood critique blog though so let me cut that short, I could go on for hours on that subject. As far as today is concerned its work, pizza, movies, Black ops and a little bit of alcohol. Again nothing earth shattering, just me remarking on my day. Sometimes I'll wax poetic but most times its just me running my mouth.

Questions, queries, opinions you see the contact information drop me a line. I have no problem taking on subject matters, I just for the most part rarely start my day out with some outline of what's going on. Something catches my eye though and I can be off and running. Aiight had some subway and now I'm sitting behind the head shop about to go do some work. I hope everyone is ready for the weekend

The best laid plans

I was planning to go watch Harry Potter at the midnight showing, but the one down the street didn't have the midnight showing posted so I'm going tomorrow night, oh well I got to wait a day to see a movie "Oh the HORROR".

I got to level 33 in black ops and earned my cross bow, and since I had the cross bow I decided to compete in a few wager matches just to see how the entire "wager" process works. I mean the basic premise is pretty simple you go into a match, put up as many bucks as you feel you want to risk and go in and try to place in the top 3. 2 out of the 3 wager matches I played in, I placed in the top 3. The first one I place 3rd, the second one I didn't place(somebody tomahawked me and erased my earnings near the end), and the third and final match I placed 1st. Sounded like I was playing with some international guys who thought I was either white or a little kid because after the match where dude hit me with the tomahawk they started trash talking, like I hadn't just placed 3rd in a previous match. Well now that I knew what the tomahawk looked like, was a little more familiar with its aiming, understood what HITTING someone with a Tomahawk would do as well as had gotten pretty good with the cross bow, you know how the last match ended right?

With Ol' Primal at the top of the list not only in the money but winning, I didn't give a USA chant wasn't needed. You're only poppin off about the Ol' US of A because we tend to waste what others would give their left nut for. So I can understand a little trash talking, even the comment about them thinking I was some white little kid pffft please I'm an american we talk about tea bagging each other(and actually do it on screen if we have enough time to get over your decaying carcass) as almost a right of passage, Newbie lol hey I can't argue with facts now could I my first 3 Wager matches and for the record I think I averaged about a 3rd, high 3rd but as my second match I was out of the money at 4th I'll take that for my first time trying out a wager match. So again I felt it was a good attempt, I still prefer Team Death Match or Ground War.

By the way I LOVE THE CROSSBOW, there is evil and then there is the crossbow an aim-able explosive dart that you can stick in somebody (anywhere) and let them see the "STUCK" symbol on their screen KNOWING they are about to die PRICELESS. Even better I can just put it near you, if you can't move in time I still get the kill. And if I can get you to run near a teammate or two I'll take that "Double Kill" any day. So I still got my walk in to hit the bank real quick but after that it was back to shooting people on black ops. I should have had a drink but meh I got in a zone and just kept going, tonight though it will definitely be some MR. Potter going on, then some more black ops and THEN some drinking.

I still gotta finish my second blog on black ops but hey I finish it when I finish it, this just allows me to get more info about it the game so that I can better express what I love about it and POSSIBLY help those who are either new to shooters or were wondering was it really a worthwhile purchase.

I will say this there are server issues sometimes there is a little bit of lag, and yes there are still cheaters there are some folks out there with serious connection issues, I do not know if they are deliberate or accidental but they do exist. Okay hitting the sack I hope all have a great friday and a great weekend

Blanket over the City

The M-town is covered by a blanket of fog today, low visibility. That's kind of how I woke up though, mind in a fog consciousness hazy. We gotta head back out to where ever we were yesterday to finish up. I mean I could go like a week without dealing with dude again. I hate people who act like your dumb, especially when you try to pull the "I'll be nice to you cause I think you're in charge, but I'm gonna talk down to the 'help' like their garbage".

A) I already told you ONE of them was my little brother so talking down to him WILL piss me off.

B) we work together, so fam past you few sheckels, dinars, green backs, or somolians once we done with your store I still gotta work with them.

C) you ain gonna wanna pay anyway so trying to get extra equipment, services, or work out of us isn't gonna fool anybody. We are gonna inform the boss, we are gonna have that added to the bill.

Enough about yesterdays aggravation, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt. 1 comes out to night(speakin of let me hit up Bay Bro and see if he wants to go tonight, 0_o he's talking crazy back to the blog). I think they should have done the last 3 books in two parts. There was enough Vital material to justify it. The amount of crap they cut out JUST to fit it into the "under 2 hours - 2 hours 30 minute" format was a travesty.

Rolling 3rd seat with my younger brother and cousin so once I get done with this card upgrade guess what I'll be doing? Not a damn, well that ain exactly true I'll help as best I can same as last night. I'll be thumbing them in too though. Like I told my cuz before I do everything on this berry and I'm not even really all up on my JO yet when it comes to my blogging and tweeting. I'll be honest I'm still kinda lackadaisical with it.

Now I know some will say "with all the content you've been kicking out lately THIS is lackadaisical". Folks if I actually do this, I mean for real do this just unleash all the pent up stories, anecdotes, jokes, flights of fancy, opinions, and observations. Think of how much I type now, now imagine how much I must have pent up if this is the stuff I find TIME to get off my chest with my busy schedule. This E-mail blogs let me spit ponderings I usually lose while I'm on the road when it was in my head all day til the work got started.

Whole car rides full of detailed thought processes that once its not foremost in my mind are gone until they wind back up. So now that I can text them in, e-mail them in or type them up on the desktop while I may have to do some editing later its so much easier.

Well cards in, both of his monitors are up, one of the cameras that were down is now back up so I guess its just the last camera and done. This might be a quick stop, I don't plan to do any fragging, but I may go home and do some more blog tweaks, I want to work on continueing to provide a better experience for all. I MAY add some games or something later, MAYBE, just gotta do some research.

Okay morning edition is being sent to bed before its time to do the afternoon edition, this is mildly extra rambley but eh, at least I'm consistent

I keep forgetting I set this up for "cheapo update posts to edit later" for if a topic comes to mind that I don't want to lose. Need to start using it more
See this is why I hate having nothing to do on these long trips bleh. I'm just sitting her bored outta my mind, falling asleep. Of well a cheapo !UPDATE!

Happy humpday

I'm on a long distance ride waaay past jackson tn. Again RIDE thus my fingers are doing the walking. I still haven't done that follow up blog to black ops I guess I'll do that on this ride. I'll flesh out all the details later, but I can give the basic framework on my phone and link to everything(like I still haven't done in the original).

I'm with wire team Bravo, all I have to do is swap out cards and do a basic upgrade. So a who knows how many ride to do MAYBE 45 minutes worth of work. Oh well, I sat on my keister for most of yesterday so a long trip that doesn't involve shooting people meh okay.

I have to see what's coming out this weekend to see if I'm hitting the movies. As my local multiplex doesn't use all of its screens anymore(its attached to a mall in a dwindling area, should have walked to the good one when my fat tail had the chance oh well) it doesn't get all the new releases just the ones it expects to get butts in seats. And they don't hang around too long either. But hey if I get there the initial friday I'm all good and what good is a movie a 4 weeks later?

And yes I say that KNOWING I have done late reviews, I'm allowed to make jokes its my blog. I have never suffer from that huge ego that requires me to you know be taken so seriously. But as I'm just doing my thoughts not claiming to be an "industry insider" just a movie fan I'm having fun with it.

Hmm nothing else really comes to mind right now so bedding this one and starting the COD:Black ops Laced up, Locked and Loaded review. See ya on the next blog

The day that wasn't

I have spent more time today fragging people then I have working. I won't lie I love days like this, its causing me to have to go to a site at o'dark 30 but oh well. This will be fun though, somebody either pulled a Jennifer Walters or a Bruce Banner on a PC based DVR.

Destroyed the monitor, performed a bam bam on the PC, MAY have damaged the pigtails and showed a serious need for anger management classes. I have pictures but I'm not gonna post them I figure meh for once I tweeted them that's enough.

Oh well the load is done, the pc is packed up into the rental and off we go

Okay This was originally sent back at 7 something but I am going to add this in. The pigtails may be damaged or else we have a case of bad T-taps, either way your warranty does not cover DOMESTICS. Days like this I wish I had a camera in the OFFICE, there are times when you really want to see what set somebody off or when they were set off exactly how they went about venting their rage.  I have seen the after effects, but I want to see that blow by blow, cause this is one of those see it to believe it moments.
