Nutha day, nutha dollah...

Things arent too bad.  I could complain, but what would be the point?  No big news this week.  As far as online goes, I am looking forward to a Wheezin Geezer challenge with my other clan I joined to expand my list of people to play h2 with, Profanity.  I am gaming under the guise of ii 0sirus ii.  Great bunch of peeps, mixed bag of talents without an inkling of suck amonst them.  A real solid clan of players.  Ill be playing with Taxi on the squad which should be a blast.  He is gaming under the nom de plume ol dirty taxi.  Looking forward to the game.  I have only participated in a few site challenges/ tourneys, I think only three to date which includes the first challenge team I particiapated in.  A bit green for formal play, but I certainly do not play bad at all.

 

Had a few great games last nite in H2 just bounced around between three rooms seein familiar faces.  Always good times in that game.  Been playin Oblivion and I am bonafide hooked alright, but thier is something missing.  The social aspect.  Just saying hello to people you play with.  Other multiplayer games dont come close to one of the biggest draws of H2 for me, which is the ease of finding and hookin up with clansmen and friends.  Only the xbox 360 live interface compares with its option to pivate chat, but that is a whole system not just a game developers interface.

 

As far as work,   what can I say?  Its going.  Took me 4 years to get in the seat I am in hockin mortgages and the battle is still half way there.  Hafta work my way up the pecking order for the good leads .  The glengary leads, not the ones from the nostalgia file or glenross farms!  The site provides a great distraction for when times get stressfull at work.  Which helps me keep my head level. 

 

Speaking of which...  Got calls to make and deals to seal.

Why not...

I have a space.  I have opinions.  So why not share a taste of my off beat nuances? 

I guess a good place to start is to thank the community for the great times.  No other club or workplace environment has put me in touch with so many good people.  I guess part of that can be chalked up to the 25+ age cap.  Thankfully.

The biggest news to date is the fact a few of my clan mates will be making it down here for E3.  Last time was a blast, the follow up will be good times.  If you have google earth N 33*2511.87" 117* 37 11.54".   I live up the street a few hundred yards from the beach and pier pictured.  I rent  of course, cannot nearly afford the homes in the community I live in.  A few days spent at the pad...  A few days spent in LA.  At the base of the pier is a nice bar over the water that will be a definate stop.  Hopefully a few asshats in my clan a trip away north will make it. 

Just got a 360, as well as, three games.  Was nervous about plopping down the cheddar when I really have none to spare, but I was able to get the bundled harddrive and three games for 400 bucks after trade ins and gift certificates.  Seeing my clanmates playin 360 all the time wore me down.  If anyone on my FR sees me playing oblivion send me an invite if your playing multiplayer.  If I am not on an arduous quest I will gladly join in a few minutes.  Same goes for the chat feature of the 360 do not hesitate to page me in game I will always join a room for a quick chat.

 

And finally...  Happy frickin easter !!!
