I don't know whether I should get a PS3 or Xbox 360. I don't have any immediate plans to get rid of my DVD collection, so Blu Ray is only a small perk. I don't play online, so Xbox Live is only a small perk (although multiplayer GTA IV has my attention). I want to be able to play Halo, but Gran Turismo is one of my favorite game series. The difference in graphics and processing capabilities are ...
I know I just wrote about this , but here's what I wrote about Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull on my Facebook Flixter review: It's 20 years later and lots of things have happened to fuel the story into a new direction, so instead of German Nazis we're dealing with Soviet Communists. The finale is just as epic and X-Files-ish as in Raiders or Last Crusade, but with a much ...
I bowled a 193 today, which ties for my fourth-best game ever . Not bad, considering it's only my fourth bowling outing since July. My goal was to bowl something in the neighborhood of 180. To bowl over 190 and have 200 be a possibility from the start of the 10th frame was a bonus. I intend to stick with this, and hopefully I can one day be consistent enough to make some money out of it!
Hooray! I bowled a 183 today. :) Had I not missed those two spares in the middle of the game, I would have bowled a 205. Oh well! Getting to 200 again is only a matter of time...
It's bowling night. Ordinarily, when I haven't bowled in a few months, I'm terrible the first night. Therefore, last Friday night, I bowled terribly (well, I hit pins, just not consistently enough for a score worthy of my top bowling scores list ). But hopefully that means the muscles I hadn't used in that way in several months are more in tune for that sort of motion, and I can approach ...
This entry only exists to remind myself at some random time in the future that I once called this journal "ramblings of a swashbuckling funambulist." But I figure it's easier to have the name match the web address, so "ninjamonkeyspy" makes better sense. If you care about this, you need to get involved with something. :)
It's Christmas, so I just picked up a copy of How The Grinch Stole Christmas and read through it. It has always been my favorite Christmas story. This year, I got more involved than just reading it, though. Over the years I have noticed subtle differences between the original version and the cartoon version, and no one seems to have posted a transcript of the cartoon online before. So, I did....
I have transcribed the holiday animated special version of How The Grinch Stole Christmas . I did this because over the years I have noticed subtle differences between the original version and the cartoon version, and no one seems to have posted a transcript of the cartoon online before. So, I did. Read the full text of the cartoon version here.
