He Was A Quiet ManThis might be a long post.

I finally updated Itunes after a couple of versions went by. The update manager never works for itunes for me so i go to the website to download it. I noticed that they finally got a 64 bit version for Vista. Sweet deal. Itunes worked but it works smoother now.

Anyways I got two new CDs. I'm listening to Jack Johnson's Sleep Through the Static. It's nice. I first got into Jack Johnson with S"itting Waiting Wishing" (I heard it on the radio) so when I saw he had a new CD (yeah i kinda missed two CDs of his) I got it. It's nice. I like the singer-song writer style.

I also got Simple Plan's new self title album. It's OK. I like "When I'm Gone." I like the accustic version better however (which doesn't usually happen).

BRB, gonna get a pwop. Back.

I haven't listened to it all the way through, but they kinda changed their sound. A lot more rap beats put into it. It's strange to hear from Simple Plan. I have to listen to it more to know if it is a good thing or a bad thing. It might grow on me. I'm gonna switch gears over to movies now.

I rented the movie He Was A Quiet Man and watched it with some friends. It's a great movie. It's a dark comedy movie. The way that I like to describe it is Donnie Darko meets Office Space.

It's about a guy who works in an office (kinda reminds me of Melvin from Office Space), and he pretends that he blows up the office building during lunch, has a gun in his desk, and plots out who the 6 bullets will be for... and his fish encourage him to do so. Yeah. Dark comedy is a good term.

The thing is though the day that he gets the guts to finally do it, he is so nervous that he drops a bullet on the ground and he ducks down under his desk to get it, and he hears gun shots... someone beat him to the punch. Melvin... oops that's not his name... i forget the name... anyways he becomes a hero after shooting the shooter for shooting a girl that he likes at work. Yeah it just gets crazier. I won't spoil it.

It's a must see I think. So go rent it. It's the one with the nervous looking office worker holding dynomite.

I also rented Good Luck Chuck (my first blu-ray rental, and it looks great). I'm not a big Dane Cook fan (as a comedian) but he is a very good actor. If you are looking for a good love story comedy, this one is good. Seems Chuck is a good luck charm for women... meaning when they sleep with him, the next man they date is their soul mate. But Chuck is tired of not finding his, and he he finally finds a girl he thinks is his soul mate, he doesn't want to loose her. It's a comedy so it doesn't have much of a story obviously... but it does have funny moments. Not the best for a bluray specticle, but it did look better then a DVD.

Also rented 30 days of Night (spring break was a week ago). Not much of a scary movie, but it wasn't a bad movie. It's a vampire movie taking place in Alaska. They have 30 days of night there (being so close to the north pole). Small town in Alaska. About a 100 people stay in this town during the month. Vampires find it a good place hunt. So they do. It's not scary, but has freaky moments. I mean a little girl having a snack on a human corpse. For some reason they have a giant meat grinder at the power plant. Marlyn Manson makes a cameo (not really but a vampire looks strangely like him/her). I made a joke. I don't know. Maybe you may want to rent it and decide if you like it. Like I said, it's not scary, but has freaky moments.

Next movie on my list is Jumper. I saw this in movie theaters a long while ago. I liked the movie. Apparently a lot of people didn't. I read some reviews on Rotten Tomatos (which I don't normally do) and people had weak excuses about why they didn't like the movie. I for one enjoyed it. The movie is planned to be a trilogy. I could see how it would unfold to be a great trilogy, but with poor reviews we may never see that. The movie kinda introduces you to jumpers. A lot of reviewers said that the story of Jumpers and Templars going back to the middle ages is weak and is totally not true... no way! I would have never thought that a science fiction movie would not be true! I said that's a weak excuse. Don't you? It has plenty of action, and I could see a second movie being really good now that they explained some stuff. It's a short movie, but I think that's a good thing. I noticed a trend of movies getting close or beyound 3 hours and now I'm seeing movie that are less then an hour and a half (Cloverfield was also short but good). I suggest that you check out Jumper. If you're not sure if you'll like it or whatever, go see it as a matinee. It's cheaper that way.

I think I'm gonna stop there. I have a lot of video game stuffs to talk about but I'll save that for another post. Wait I do have something else to say.

So I read the newspaper at work. I really get excited when I see a picture of a certain newspaper writer int he paper. I forget his name, but he's cool. Basically he uses the newspaper every week as his own personal blog (kinda like me with the website). He just talks about what he thinks of stuff. He reminds me of myself. He likes music, he wants to see the Civic Center attract bigger bands. I for one wouldn't mind seeing Linkin Park coming here. He

Anyways I was reading an article of his on Friday (or maybe it was Thursday), and the title of it was "Obama Muslim!?". Basically the article of talking about a stupid email floating around saying that they proved that Obamam is muslim and wants to destroy America. I recieved this email and deleted it promptly.

Basically forwarded email are a tribute to how stupid America is. For one did you know that none of it is true?! OMG!!!!!!!!!!1111111. But it said it was true!? (sarcasm). An email said it was true... yeah it has to be then. No. Turns out that Obama's church is in fact a Christian church and that it isn't a sham to make people just think he's Christian. He actually is. In the article he laid down facts about it, and cited them (never trust information that isn't cited). He also said to check out a website that tells you if an email is true or not. I forgot what he recommended, but it's similar to truthorfiction.com.

Also in the news, a lot of people getting sued for stupid things. Big whoop. 8th grade honors student kicked out of his honors because he bought a candybar. Next day he got back his honors status because they realized how stupid they were. Another one that I couldn't believe was some lady had to go to the hospital because she sat on a toilet seat for 2 years without getting up... wow. Apparently her boyfriend brought her food and water but didn't realize that he should really call for help. He's being sued by the way for neglect... they are both in their 30's but she's mentally handicapped, and had a phobia of leaving the bathroom. I forgot to tell you why she had to go to the hospital... the toilet seat was stuck to her butt... actually it was more that it was actually part of her butt... yeah. So that's the news. Everytime I read the newspaper I loose faith in humanity.

And that's the reason I don't talk about politics or news that doesn't relate to video games, movies, music, or technology. I gave up on my Twisted Metal site. It just was too big for me.

See you later.
