Daily Blogg: i can quit...



...i just don't wanna. Yes im still playing WoW and although it has yet to get to this stage (see pic) i have noticed myself spending frankly disturbing amounts of time in front of my PC only stopping for long enough to refill the mini fridge with Red bull and processed meat products.

So as of today im limiting myself back down to no more that three sessions per day of no more than two hours at a time. Raiding simply does not count regardless of the raid content...this is not an excuse for me to live in a raid location but i have moved in beside Onyxia and although she is a bitch of a room mate i have found that beating the living crap out her solo is shits and giggles.

Depressing how much you can pimp some lowbies with onyxia gear these days.

wait did i just refer to a Lv 60 as a lowbie? oh bloody hell....

Movie Night: Forbidden Kingdom 2008



A very very VERY late movie night tonight in the form of the a martial arts epic with the gods of kung fu Jackie Chan and Jet Li!!!

South Boston teenager Jason Tripitikas (Michael Angarano) awakens from a dream of a battle between the Monkey King Sun Wukong (Jet Li) and heavenly soldiers amongst the clouds. He is a fan of kung fu movies; posters cover the walls of his room, and on his TV is the 1966 Hong Kong film "Monkey Goes West". After getting dressed, he makes his way to a pawn shop in downtown Boston's China town to buy wuxia DVDs. There, Jason converses with Hop (a prosthetics-laden Jackie Chan), the shop's elderly owner, and, while thumbing through some DVDs, he is drawn to a golden staff inside a room full of antiques. Hop tells him that the staff is to be delivered to its rightful owner and then closes the door.

On his way back home, Jason is attacked by local bully Lupo (Morgan Benoit) and his cronies, who force him to go back to the pawnshop at night so that Hop will open the door, allowing them to steal his money. Feeling betrayed, Hop tries to attack the thieves with the staff, but is shot by Lupo. Hop, wounded, tells Jason that Jason must now deliver the staff to its rightful owner. Jason takes the staff and runs from the thieves. On top of a building, he is surrounded by the bullies, as Lupo fears that Jason will expose the shooting to the police and intends to silence him. Before Lupo can shoot, Jason is suddenly pulled off the roof by the staff and falls backwards onto the asphalt, and through time.

As he awakens in ancient China he is confronted by a small group of armored warriors who recognize the staff and attempt to take it from him....and....

....that's where im cutting you off folks as frankly i think I have spoiled enough of the flick.
so sit back relax grab your (by now very stale) popcorn and enjoy the movie.

Daily Blogg: Avatars arrive on XBOX Live


Meet my virtual self, pretty good eh? this is now how i appear in my various exploits into the mad world of XBOX Live.
Yes i know its a virtual barbie doll but i gotta be honest here i have already grown pretty attached to the little guy and his oh so cheery disposition.

None the less three cheers to Microsoft and this latest update and although i now kinda feel that my user interface has been usurped by Nintendo its nice to see that MS have not given up on its loyal customers.

Now don't forget to tune in tomorrow for movie night although I'll be honest here i have no idea what its going to be lol.

Daily Blogg: death of my social life


Oh come on you know what i've been doing...

Yes i know its lame but hey what can i say its a fun expansion and i recommend it to anyone with a little spare cash and a warcrack addiction to invest in it as soon as is humanly possible.

Now although i have not yet been privy to anything relating to the updating of DXG (formally DominionWoW) to the latest patch and update & i have been receiving a lot of queries regarding it on my various Youtube advertising videos and would like to know if anyone has any information on this most frustrating of subjects so i can spam the living hell out of all the idiots who choose to bombard me with stupid questions.

if you know anything please do tell, untill then im off back to Azeroth...meh who needs a social life anyway?

How too: Make a one dolla speaker sysytem



Ok im back and i have a real doddle of a make for you this week that i was introduced to when i was waiting for the WoW expansion, all credit go's to Gerrard and his one man personal entertainment system who powered and used these amazing speakers to entertain us all in the freezing cold while the nice people at GAME mocked us from there centrally heated splendor.

I should note that a base metal washer and some good quality TIN foil (not aluminum) as you require a conductive surface for maximum effect. Additionally try to put some insulating tape anywhere you attempt top move the speaker as the effect can be quite shocking.

One last thing is that the addition of an external power source (that will be next weeks how too) can improve speaker output significantly.

Music: Ramp - Scooter



Some classic Brit hardcore "wake the hell up" music on this lazy lazy Sunday, now i know its been a while but being of a generation that enjoyed this sort of insanity during the mid 90's it tends to bring back some good abet blurry memory's that bring a smile to my face.

hope it brings some fun times to your addled minds eye too.

peace out
