    Osama Bin Laden : Dead

    I felt the same disconnect mentioned earlier with the cheering of his death. Yes, I'm glad he's finally paid the price for thousands who were destroyed on 9/11 (and I don't just mean the people in the towers), but it was more a somber moment. The last 10 years haven't exactly been awesome and to...

    What Are You Playing?

    Crafting is pretty fun, until you get past level 20 and realize that you literally have to make 100-150 synths per level. Just to go from level 49 to 50 would literally take 1000 synths at current rates. That's not cool.

    What Are You Playing?

    I've managed to force myself to level 20 blacksmith and 20 marauder in FF14 (playing alone the game is tedious at best, I can at least do leves with my wife which makes it a bit more fun). The game had some real potential, but rushing it out the door like this was such a huge mistake. I have...

    Oh it's a big day for movie news I guess: http://www.deadline.com/2010/10/breaking-news-james-camerons-next-films-are-avatar-2-3/ This may or may not be something to look forward to.

    What Are You Playing?

    Outside of the bosses (which I found painfully tedious and tacked on), I loved MGS4. Sure, it was 10 hours of cutscenes and 5 hours of gameplay, but it was mostly pure fan-service and I'm cool with that. Also, even with the retcons it still tied everything up. I want Fallout: New Vegas but it...

    I agree. While I can understand why they're using it, the more you say it, the worse it sounds.

    I don't know if you saw this one, but it definitely adds to the Fallout: New Vegas horror: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtAvYZ_dcB4

    That is one of the most unintentionally terrifying things I've ever seen.

    Phoenix Wright x Professor Layton Crossover for 3DS

    I think I just suffered a fanboy induced heart attack. As if there weren't already enough reasons to get a 3DS.

    Firefighters watch a house burn to the ground over a $75.00 fee.

    I really have nothing more to comment on this topic and I retain my original stance, but I would like to say that I find my new title humorous despite its derogatory underpinnings.

    Firefighters watch a house burn to the ground over a $75.00 fee.

    Qualified is qualified. It means that they are fully capable and ready to take on the job at hand. That likely includes those with experience. As for the quote, it's saying that there's stiff competition even after those eliminations. They're run by volunteers in small rural areas due to lack of...

    Firefighters watch a house burn to the ground over a $75.00 fee.

    You're wrong about the last part. Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook 2010-2011 http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos329.htm That doesn't even take into account the near 10% unemployment rate in this country. Here's another article, albeit not in the same state, but still...
