How I Met the Internet

How I miss World of Warcraft.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Sat, 27 Jun 2009 04:44:00 +0000

I am indeed missing my charicters in world of warcraft.... I barely remember how to play the game and i am sure it wont take long for to get back into the swing of things. I remember why i left the game... I just really really regret it now.

So my char's hmmm lets start off with the lovely Priest Evellina...

Evellina is the Bloodelf priest that got me into the PVE things... I was running raids with her and every so often getting in some 3v3 with her... I would like to get the RMP (Rouge, Mage, Priest) comp going in full swing at 8 but more on that later.

then there is Unfit.... MY PVP AWESOMENESS... he is a warlock and yes undead in the sorts... I think he is the most OP'd group pvp guy I mean i steal so many kills because of the DOT's and well it was just unfair. he would have fit well in a DK pally lock comp. again explain will follow.

Then there was my DK who's name is flown out the window I belive it was deathmoo or something... I will update later.

and then my rogue senria... the guy that got me into the game... I think it takes a certain person to play a rogue. And i am just not that person. good farm char though.

And Goodkitty Druid he was and fun to boot. owned my guild with tons of gold in it.

So, I personally love the PVP arena systems. I was working on my warlock to get him to 80 so i can get onto a pvp comp and be in all srsness about it...

The gamer in me is waking

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 16:09:00 +0000

I have been trying to get on world of warcraft lately to see the new goings on and to PVP i really miss the damn game!

From what i hear the raiding is super easy so it shouldnt be hard to get the gear. I am think i am going to try and sign up for the comp they have to qualify for the international and the MLG circut. So we shall see what happens.

the fun at regionals.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Wed, 20 May 2009 00:10:00 +0000

So i went to regionals and my deck just pooped on me! I went 4 and 4 and i wouldnt have any idea why the deck was b/w persist. I am not to happy with it i am just going to drop my redcaps and add the meddow grains back. I however thing think i am going to just punch the deck and make a new one.

Zendikar... Deadly Perils, Priceless Treasures.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 01:27:00 +0000

And so here it is. The new large set for October. Some facts we know

Set Name	Zendikar
Three-Letter Abbreviation	ZEN
Number of Cards	249
Release Date	Friday, October 2, 2009
Prerelease Events	September 26-27, 2009
Launch Parties	October 2-4, 2009

Design Team	Mark Rosewater (lead) Doug Beyer Graeme Hopkins Kenneth Nagle Matt Place

so this is right from Daily MTG. For some reason this is just sreaming pirates to me. I dont know why but it could be like the mirage set. I however, think this might be another tribal like thing? But with all the hype on Alara reborn doing something brand new maybe they will keep the idea going like that. But it wouldn't make much R and sence that way either. More to come soon!

First week with Tokes

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 01:04:00 +0000

So my first week with tokes... It got me in the swing back to my 3-2 self. Although, I could have gone 4-1 to make the final but i got a really really bad match up... Lets start with match up one... here we go!

Planeswalkers v. Tokes.

game1: good start got my tide hollow out turn to stick an Ajani eot for a few turns. that was followed by my Medowgrain and then another tidehollow to stick garruk under there. No anthems came out and i didn't see the cousin of Ajaini ven. Both my tidehollows were a bust. he eventually over ran me with garruk.

game 2: pretty much the same... only one tide hollow and a bitter blossom and a glorious. Lost again to a overrun. this time to the help of elspeth....

look back: I spent allot of time with planes walker hate. Giving my opponent allot of time to build and destroy. Should i have just said fuck you planes walkers most certainly. I could have killed my opponent well before he got underway. lesson learned.

Not sure (Angel life link kinda deck.) v. Tokes

game1: Turn to BB. followed by a turn three glorious and turn four spectral turn five and six were a bit of a stale mate and turn 7 attack with three and flip 2 cloud goats from under wind brisk.... " i concede." Never heard that before.

game2: Turn two Hollow nabs me a wrath!!! GO GO HOLLOW! turn three medowgrain. turn four hollow grabs me an elspeth WOW GREAT HOLLOWS! and the only thing that could make it better was the turn five glorious. I hope you have another wrath in there buddy you're going to need it. He knew he was dead next turn and again looked at me and said you go it.

Boatbrew v. Tokes....

Before i even start with this one i just wanna say one things..... I OWNED HIM HARD.

game1: t1 bitter, t2 medowgrain, t3 glorious, t4 ajani game.

game: alright this one was the hope crusher for the kid. he got screwed with a 2 land hand after mulling down to five. what else could you do muli to four and gimme a 2 turn head start? he eventually conceded and left the shop... (i thought that last bit was funny.)

Elves V. Tokes......

Game one and two went very well. I was actually very pissed off for losing this game. I know this kid should have not won but i was getting beat up by a nasty hang over. I know this is a really bad match up for me. but i also know i am a far better player then this kid is. so I know what i did wrong and that was not muli enough. I took hands that had unplayable cards in them like a fool.

That this last weeks match ups. Next week i will be doing my last draft for a while in the shop. I am starting a new job and i don't know when i will be able to get in there for another one.I am going to be getting as many Sundays in as possible. I just hope that the effort and cash and stress i put in to tokes doesn't go to waste. On another note A very good friend and i have started to pool together and team. we are building decks and our hope is to just get invited to a PT soon. we shall see. anyway stop by for more updates and more magic fun.

Alara reborn news!!!

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 00:44:00 +0000

So from a source somewhere on the interwebs....

New stuff about the up and coming set!!! I hope they spoil something! It would be nice!

Magic... Not the silly rabit in the hat kind

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 03:32:00 +0000

So i play a card game... GASP! no not you to!!! well to all those who play magic the gathering. I am with you all... I would like to start with FNM. I love FNM i think its one of the best ways to get some social networking done. you never now what you can do with the right social group. Right now at my local FNM. I have gotten a lot of knowledge and some great trades. So where am i going with this. Well, I have been blogging all over the place and well i lost the attention span on a lot of things.

SO here we are on the topic of a game that has been pretty much all I have done for about 7 months now.... I hope to travel to some PTQ's and while playing getting some good things to blog about. as for now I would like to speak about the FNM and Sunday Standards i have been playing in.

Starting with FNM. So some of you may say what is this FNM you speak of? FNM is Friday night magic. Every Friday at Jiffy Photo and Baseball cards on Rt. 88 ( no he is not paying me to say such a thing i just really like the shop and the guys who run it.) about 18 or 20 people get together to do a a draft and compete for top 4! have i made top 4 SURE! once... about 2 months ago.... on last Friday I went 3-1 and bubbled out to a kid who I person don't think should have been there. And this week i will make a run at it again.

And then there is type 2 Sundays. Type 2 is standard only certain sets aloud. check with your local shop to explain this much more.

So this is pretty basic and well i am not going to keep it this way. I really hope to get some people looking on and some discussion going.

Ever feel so alone?

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Fri, 06 Mar 2009 05:57:00 +0000

I am sitting and i feel like i am just alone. Like there is no one to talk to. like there is nothing left. I really wanna just crawl under a rock and wither away. I am just a bad person. I just don't like being alone right now.

I did something really bad and i want to be better. I want to be better for me and for her.

I don't have much to say. i feel like i am going to throw up and i cant keep tears out of my eyes.

I hate me.

So far... Its okay.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Sun, 01 Feb 2009 05:31:00 +0000

Windows 7... So far so good the install was amazing. It was supper fast and easy.

Although there was one thing I got a BSOD (blue screen of death) I was sitting there downloading some network tools. ( I have been playing the idea of going down the network security path for my second career.) While i was downloading those tools i was watching my favorite Internet TV shows http://Revision3.com and i random got the BSOD.... no problems since so i am guessing it was just a fluke.

However, I am playing with the networking options... If you have never setup a network in your home before this is the best way to get one going. I really think its a great tool for the people with absolutely NO idea what they are doing. However i found it a bit watered down an well not as easy to change around for the more network savvy people.

One thing i found my self doing is using my programs in a windowed mode so that i can see the background changing every so often. I am using a CPU and memory clock and it is indeed using much less memory and CPU even with all the neato stuff behind. but there are some spikes on the CPU from 0% to 13% then to 26% back down to 0% so i am wonder what is causing this.

More coming soon. I am still in the first viewing phase. trying to get more in depth and really break it down. Soon i will really roll up the sleeves and open the hood and start ripping at the internals.

Emo be gone... techy stuff here we go!

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 07:55:00 +0000

So, I have stumbled upon the emo part of my life and i am sure there will be more shit like that. But I wanna go ahead and move past that and talk about two things. I might however, split this lovely little blog into two things... and those be the things we talks about today.... I love a game called Magic the gathering! and well i eat sleep dream this game... and the only thing that gets in the way is this world or technology that we all have love and use. so this is the first establishment of both.

Alright off into the tech world because its a bit shorter. In about oh say 45 min i am going to install and run a beta copy of the world people have grown to hate and love. Some back in my younger days used to laugh at its inablitly to be nothing more then just a point click go kind of thing. And if you havent cought on yet its called Windows. The great people at microsoft ( i am using this term loosly.) have graced us with a "better" version of windows Vista. I am currently running the bastard child of XP, ME, 2005 and so on a so forth... before i continue into what windows 7 is supposed to bring us i wanna give a litte background on the experience i have had with vista.

Vista.... well its pretty.... I think vista gave the pc users a nicer looking version of XP that sucks up RAM pretty nicely... I am running a duel core pentium with 1.75 clock speed and 2 gigs of ram with x1300 ati GPU. and this laptop is giving me a slight problem... that being.... the battery is not being recognized... its there and shows me a full charge when it take it out. I just havent had the time to troubleshoot it. so i just use it a very convienent desktop.

SO with vista... SLOW SLOW SLOW SLOW... First time running it i realized that it took for ever to shut its self down... well its later dawned on me... there is so much more extra crap being run in the background to make this OS look as though it does with the widgets and the side bar and all that jazz. What is it all for i dont know nore do i care or use them so i took it off. WHATS THIS more speed... well what else could i do to speed it up... well hell i stopped using the Areo setting all together and guess what... it looked like freaking XP all over again... so it worth paying big buck for the latest and greatest flop? no! does it come pre installed... yes.... It really makes me wanna cry... But you know what else is coming preinstalled these days... LINUX... yes that is right people living under a god damn rock... Dell, as of the last time i check, if offering a version of linux preinstalled like windows on the machine. GO GO GADET AWESOMENESS. However i opted to go the easy route and get point click work going. At the time i was an avid World of warcraft player and didnt know much to anything at all about how to make linux run the program.

I however, REGRET making this choice...

Moving on the the next topic. Win 7. do i like the speed at which they are throwing this at us... yes. on two levels. one its gets rid of vista with out haveing to go to ubuntu (vista unix flavored Imo!). Supposedly, they listened to the complaints fo the people and gave us what we want.... DO i belive? nope! can i be hopeful... you damn right i will. Windows 7 is supposed to have some pretty cool shit. like a touch screen feature... okay i said this and i think most of you the populus will as well... WHY!?!? oh why?

well hell it would be cool to just set up a box that is capable of doing this. do i think its nessisary to be packaged in... no... should it be a download from the site of an option you can turn on when installing YES!

and that segways me into my next topic on the OS. what i expect for the install.......

Well, Every install of Windows i have ever run i have had to go back in and shut off some of the USELESS crap given to me by the microsoft people... okay i get it 25% of users need that crap... WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!! does everyone at home need to have a touchscreen option turned on just in the off chance the the softwear actually recoginzes and and can start using it right away... well no i dont think so.

So as i said before... Please make it more customize able by asking SIMPLE hardwear questions like.... Do you have a touch sensetive monitor? no, oh you dont need this piece of crap 10k lines of code... oh later on down the road you score your self a touch monitor... great plug and play download from site or CD and there you go 10 min later you can use it!

on the other hand what am i looking forward two.... MY RAM BACK!!! instead of using 80% of the systems ram 7 should use a mighty half or less of that...

A BETA! first time... sad its open and sad that its not a game but hey feed back and make it better is what i like. Being apart of the development.

Easier networking? hmm simple networks with xp is easy... now going from the XP maching on the the Vista maching was a but harder... it just wasnt a good set up of me... Not sure if that was OS faulted but i didnt like it.

what else to add... well nothing really... this is a rant more then information so take it with a grain of salt and tell me your ideas good bad inbetween ok? oh and wish me luck with the install...

Life... and infinite amout of fail!

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 08:36:00 +0000

Fail... Seems like all I can say about life right now... I work at a wal-mart... YEA GO 401K. Relationship is going to shit. Girlfriend doesn't care... and at this point i cant say that i do either.... we fight then we laugh and fight some more... I don't what to do anymore...

I will say this, however, I messed up... and if the person who reads knows deep inside there heart then let me follow up that by saying... I am sorry. I am so very sorry. I have wasted your life.

All I ever want to do is be something good for myself and maybe someone else... I am going to be 24 in about 2 months and i want nothing more then my own place where i can be me and not be held back by someone who need everything done there way... I am trying to set up my own home server... can't do it. It wont look good. I love snakes... favorite animal in the world... can't get one... won't let me. I dont blame her on the snake thing i really don't but it's something to bitch about. and well i am on a rant right now listening to the weepies. ( www.myspace.com/theweepies ) i cant think of one time where i would have been happy like this... if this is life post military then why in the world did i get out? life sucks. Its only sucking more. I have made more bad decisions then good ones and i cant stop the track that i am on. I want to be somewhere else. I want to be happy. and even though i didnt know it i was happy where i was. I had lots of friends that care and would help me at the drop of a hat! why did i ever give that up?

To joel and shivon
I am miss ya buddies! i couldnt bring it apon my self to invade in your life. I know you were there for me and would have been there for me when ever i asked. I thank you guys for all your kindness and i wanna say thank you.

To Joe...
I have no idea whats going through my head when i do things and i belive i owe you an appologie for the way i was the day before i left and to you and joel and shivon and shanna. the only true friends i have.

To kristy,
I miss you kitten... i wish things could have been different but they are not. And i hope that some day i can be forgiven. I hope izzy is well and her and Enzo are getting along. I hope things work out for you... I need to be happy... for me you need to be... because if you can do it then i have a shot in the dark as well... You are my best friend and with you to bitch to sometimes. I would be dead inside.... however you give me the little spark that i need to keep going.

To Heather...
I dont know what to say to you... this sounds mean... I dont know why you are being like this to me.. I've done nothing wrong i think of nothing but you. and I feel as though it never gets sent back to me. you are happy when i am not around... you want me to do everything for you and nothing for me... how do you expect me to be happy... The only thing you have given me is my Friday night Magic and now i get shit for doing that. i am a very independent person. I need space just like you do. I dont know why or even how you think half of the things you do are fair or even helping us progress into our relationship. If you want to leave me then i will not stop you. i want to be happy... and so far you have done a sub par job and trying to make me happy. But when i try to make you happy its never good enough. So here i am saying it if this what you want in my this life then i WILL NOT be apart of it. I can not be appart of it. I have been here before and i will not go back. I have had this weight on my chest. I dont deserve it. I wont take it. I dont know what to do. and i completely confused. the balls on on you... and you know I will tell you what i want i have listend to you and you have listend to me. I just dont think you care about anything i say because you are to selfish to realize that you are ruining me.

So this is the personal rant that will happen from time to time. enjoi!

Almost a year since my last one.....

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 05:46:00 +0000

well... I got a little tired of blogging and it not being read so now i just blog for the fun of it. Who i then give the site to my friends and they pass it along. Maybe in the future we can start a blog web site for people to just go through blogs and read them.... waaaaaait that seems to have been done already.

So, I am wanna get into web design and do that whole thinga ma whatzi. But with everything else in life i am not 100% sure i wanna do this. I know it looks fun i used to like doing it when i was a bit younger but the times have changed and so have I! I am dealing with the age old thing of what do i wanna do when i grow up do i wanna make the worlds next WoW Game that all know and love? Do i wanna be the next Kevin Rose? Do i wanna be a personality that people wanna listen to and want to be around? well in short yes! I wanna do it all... but can is the question i run into! Maybe i can start on youtube and start posting tips and trick on certain subjects...

As for right now my only real hobbie is Magic the gathering.... Its intresting how i have progressed and the digressed and well its time to get on the path to being a pro in that and doing maybe some web design? I think that job is just soooo much fun and i really wanna do it! anyway back to magic!

So far i have done one major tourny... Last years states event! great time wish i could have done better and had more play testing in. But as it is i have not. So i placed 92nd over all and dropped out before the last match... I have been doing limited draft on friday nights! great time LOADS of fun but inconsistant. with the exception of one person..... Alex. He always wins never fails... what i do wrong i have no idea! but i will get there!

well, As for now i will keep updates on the road to pro magic play/ web designer... keep checking in (if anyone does) and post replies to me!!

OOOOOO new addons...

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Fri, 29 Feb 2008 17:02:00 +0000

I am not sure why or even how I cam across getting new add on's... I do remember saying that my old add on's were sooo out of date it was kicking from raids... I guess there was soooooo many errors it would kick me out of the game. So I took it upon my self to redo all add on's and so this is what Iuse.

For the day to day grind:

Titan panel
Cartographer complete
Auctioneer
Necrosis <---- (a warlock only mod)
Atlas loot

For raiding and BG's:

Deadly boss mods
NEC enemy cast bar
X-Pearl unit frames <---- (and day to day)
Omen threat meter

Titan panel

for the most part helps out with Coords and tell you how much gold you have how much it's going to cost to repair and how much durability you have left on you gear. You can get other things if you are a rogue to tell you how much vanishing powder/blinding powder you have. There are some more functions but I personally don't use them.

Cartographer complete.

This particular mod has allot of "noise" with it. when you have it activated you can see all the mining nodes you could ever want to see... it some times gets in the way when you are looking for something on you map but if you have professions like mining or herbalism this mod is almost a must. It shows you where you need to look for certain reagents. It makes farming go by sooooo fast. And you get what you need and just random crap as well.

Auctioneer

is a mod with many capabilities... some of which i will never ever ever in a million years use. One of which is called bottom feeder. Bottom feeder scans the AH and looks for things that are being sold below median price asks you if you want to but and resell it at the higher price.... this is risky business in my opinion... you may lose money if the item never sells. But Auctioneer can do a scan of the AH and give you best prices for the item you want to sell.

Necrosis

how have i ever lived without this mod before. If you are warlock that likes to click. (i like mashing buttons on the keyboard) there are pop out menus that hold all the lock spells. It also shows you how many shards you have and can be set to do many many other things. I suggest this mod for EVERYONE who play a lock.

Atlas loot

very simple mod. It just tells you what bosses drop what look. I don't like going to three or four websites while i am in game to find this info. So i mod :)

So in a nut shell that's the day to day mods. I use them all the time and sometimes i feel lost without them... On to raid mods... some can be used all time but i usually use them just for raiding.

Deadly Boss

I make all people who raid with me get Deadly boss mod. DBM is a great add on for all the abilities bosses do. It gives you a bar count down timer, raid warnings, etc. You can set it so that it give you a warning or you can set to warn the raid (provided you are leader or have assist).

NEC (Nature Enemy Cast)

bars are a useful little add on for healers and locks Or any class that is using DoT's or HoT's. This mod puts about 10 small bars on your screen (movable to where ever you want.) and lets you keep track of what you have on and what you are missing.

X-Pearl

changes the little character buttons to fully animated and fun little character things. It also tells you who is missing buffs and comes with Grim reaper. I like grim reaper. GR show you what people are getting hit for and how they died. So when you cool warrior buddy tell you that you never heal him you can tell him the EXACT TIME that he had a crushing blow and there was nothing you can do about it! there are soooo many functions with this mod that i don't use them all, but there are still there and still as helpful as ever!

Omen

omen is much much better then KTM. it keeps track of threat on all mobs not the group. KTM is not very effective because it will calculate in all trash that you are currently attacking at the time and display only that information. While Omen does much the same thing i will display the threat for what ever mob you have targeted at the time.

And those are the mods i use in my daily life of WoW... I sure there are more that i could use to make things super easy but i just don't like having soooooo many mods for every little thing. I use what i have to. but i don't care to use anymore. Also i am try out mods all the time. so if you have some that you think i could benefit from send them my way and i will give them a shot. But don't be fooled i will tear it apart if i feel like its a bunch of crap!

Random thoughts

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Mon, 25 Feb 2008 21:43:00 +0000

I was with my guild the other day finishing up the Kara run we had started previously in the week. We 2 or 3 shot Neatherspite (big blue dragon of gayness.) and we are on our way to Nightbane. While you only need one tank we had one leave and get his brothers lock or something like that he claimed it was in full tier 5 (he had one piece. I think that was the shoulders.) If you have ever been to Nightbane you know he does like three or four different things. He puts black shit on the ground and it hurts you, SO YOU MOVE (this is what people dont understand) he flys up does and aoe and drops the little fuckers on the ground....

I dont know how many times people stood in the black shit trying to get that last spell off... ITS KILLING YOU ASS HOLE! but with failure come success at some point people have understand you need to move! But no not with our group people just stand there and die... i guess they never want to move past kara.

But My priest has been past kara in Gruul's Lair, Tempest keep, and Serpent Shrine cavern. Now they may not have been full clears but some bosses for the most part... i know we can do them we just need the 25 people. I hope that we can get there soon.

Patch 2.4?? What can we expect.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Tue, 12 Feb 2008 21:39:00 +0000

I do not claim these are correct nor do I take responsibilty for anything you may or may not get your hopes up on and does not come true. my source is Gamesiteguide.com

The Sunwell Isle

The Aldor and the Scryers have made their way to the Sunwell and finally put their petty squabbles aside to form the Shattered Sun Offensive against the demonic forces of Kil’jaeden and the corrupt Blood Elves led by Kael’thas Sunstrider. Shattered Sun Offensive representatives can be found in Shattrath recruiting Horde and Alliance alike for the battle for the Sunwell Plateau and the Magister’s Terrace.

General

- Silence and Interrupt effects are now subject to diminishing returns.
- The Sunwell Plateau is a 25-player, level 70 raid instance located on Sunwell Isle. Players will be able to face the demon lord Kil’jaedon himself.
- The Magister’s Terrace is a 5-player, level 70 dungeon located on Sunwell Isle. Players will be able to finish the fight with Kael’thas and his corrupt Blood Elves.
- The Backpack has been redesigned. It will now start as a 10 slot bag, but it will gain 2 slots every 10 levels. New characters will be given an additional 6 slot bag. Existing characters below level 30 may have items moved to their mailbox that no longer fit in their Backpack. Players affected by this should also find a 6 slot bag in their mailbox.
- Abilities and items with aura effects will no longer reach as far vertically as they do horizontally.
- Several new emotes have been added to the game. Players that wish to make use of these emotes should use the “/emotelist” command.

- The troll Berserking racial no longer requires mana, energy or rage to use.
- The gnome Escape Artist racial cooldown has been increased to 2 min, from 1 min 45 sec, but now provides a 5 sec immunity to movement impairing effects.
- The human Perception racial cooldown has been reduced to 2 min, from 3 min, but the duration has been reduced to 12 sec, from 20 sec.
- The human Diplomacy racial now also increases healing received by 3%.

PvP

- Additional bonus honor is now rewarded on a Battleground Holiday.
- Picking up and dropping the Flag in a Battleground now has a distinct visual and auditory effect.
- Warriors will now be able to use Commanding Shout and Battle Shout for free for a few seconds after being resurrected by a Spirit Guide in a Battleground.
- The points awarded from capturing the flag in Eye of the Storm has been increased.
- During a period of excessive arena queue times the matching system will loosen its requirements, effectively reducing queue times, but resulting in less effective matching.

Druids

- Bash now deals 50% of normal melee damage.
- Cyclone now has a 15 sec cooldown.
- Frenzied Regeneration: The amount of health restored now scales slightly with bonus healing effects.- Swipe now generates additional threat.
- Soothe Animal is now instant cast, down from a 1.5 sec cast time.
- Control of Nature: This talent now also affects Hibernate.
- Celestial Focus: This talent now also reduces the cooldown of Cyclone by 5/10/15 sec.

So I am back into addiction mode to world of warcraft... i know silly me. But i am going into more things like arena's and bg's to get that ever so awsome PVP gear so instead of dying in .6 seconds for the gosh darn rogue/druid combo that we went 1 for 1 with :) (thanks to Xaxain's amazing freezy trap thingy.)

There are time when we just get WTFPWND but hey, it happens right? But i just remember that one because it was fun to see us winning a few. Our personal Ratings are much more important then the teams and so what are doing is using our alts to lower the Team rating Mean while using the mains to pump our individual rating....

While i am having soooooo much fun with PVP. I sorrowly miss raiding. I want to see BT and the like get all tier and just soo bad ass it hurts. I would like to see someone hit my priest and stare in amazement at how much i am not getting hit? and then fall over dead because i am that cool.

Getting back to my dreams.

On a happier note I AM GOING TO GET BACK INTO PHOTOGRAPHY. so stay tuned on that i will be posting some of my work here and creating a site for all my work... my hope is to get enough work up and start doing as a side business. I have a model that wants to be a suicide girl and well SHES SUPER HOT. If you don’t know what suicide girls are go to Suicide girls but if you are lazy or under 18, Suicide Girls are "alternative models" I use the quotes only due to the fact that these girls just happen to like piercings and tattoo's. I guess in the society we live in that is "alternative" but its slowly becoming a norm, how many people can you think have tattoo's. The part I play in this is the artistic side. I need to find a way for her to get a nice but simple back ground that wont drown her out she is rather pale. So white, red, yellow, ect. Are out. I want to go with something colorful but not to loud. This will also be my transformation to digital SLR cameras. So I am super excited. I am going to be designing my site here in the next few weeks so look for updates on that.

People SUCK!

Oh what has the world come to.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 19:43:00 +0000

I often take time out of my day to read news. (Okay so I don’t do much of anything else but look on the interwebs.) But I must say something’s never cease to surprise me.

Surfing one of my favorite sites Digg.com (Kevin Rose is my hero.) I pass a news headline that I just can’t skip over, now I may be a little sick for this but I gave out a little chuckle when I first say it.

Voices made me do it, says schoolgirl who filmed herself 'trying to kill her parents'

Really?

Voices?

COME ON, you have got to be kidding!!!

But there is no kidding this girl, who was 15 at the time of the "alleged" murder attempt is really trying to convince people that "voices" in her head made her want to kill her parents. I really can't take this serious! Out pure curiosity I continue to read her side of the story. And the laughter continues....

"She described how she had asked for counseling at school when she began hearing the voice - which made derogatory remarks and said she was worthless - in Year 8 (for those that don't know this is the English equivalent to a Jr. High 7th grader), and said it sometimes manifested itself as images of dead people in her head."

Who really takes a 15 year old, one who is "hearing voices in her head" that serious. Okay, so we keep an eye on her make sure she is not doing this for attention right? But she tells the court that counselors ridiculed her and said she was worthless, well, I don't know about anybody else but when I was in school guidance counselors or even academic counselors NEVER ridiculed anyone or told anyone they were worthless. Isn't there job to make you feel better about yourself? What kind of creditability can this girl possibly have? The girl goes on to explain in court how she got the voices to stop;

"At first, she said, she managed to make it go away but she gradually had to take more extreme measures - hitting, slapping or taking a blade to herself - to make it disappear."

So she's emo, what emo kid doesn't do this to them self’s to get attention? Hell, at emo shows they sell razors at the merch tables with band logo's on them!

And this is where the story starts to make sense. Now keep in mind that A.) This is a girl we are talking about. B.) Food is brought into the equation.

"On the day of the alleged attack on her parents last February at the family home in St Neots, Cambs, the teenager was "upset" after a row with her father over the way she ate a piece of birthday cake."

Ahhh, Her dad made her feel like a porker.... I GET IT NOW! Every guy knows if you bring a girls weight into the situation you might as well strap on a saddle and try to hold on for 8 seconds. Never the less we have motive... the girl makes matters worse by videotaping the whole thing. Not just the attempt on the parents lives but all the strange things she did leading up to it.

"She set up her camera, trying to distract herself, and changed into her nightie and put on make-up, but the voice continued to jabber at her, she told the court. (some of the article has been removed from here to make this shorter)

In the video, the girl first filmed herself as she sat in her bedroom dressed in a silk nightgown and discussing what she planned to do to her parents, who were downstairs. The film then switched to the downstairs living room.

The girl's mother could be seen sitting at the computer unaware of what was about to happen. In the background, the commentary of a televised rugby match could be heard and the jury were told her father was sitting on a sofa watching the match.

As the film continued, the girl then walked up to her mother, standing directly behind her and then looping a length of cord around her neck.

At first, the mother says to her daughter "What are you doing? That is not very funny." The teenager replied "It's not meant to be funny." As the film continues, the girl is seen pulling the cord tight.

Moments later, the mother says "Then stop doing it, let go." Her daughter replied "No I am not going to let go." By now, the mother had swiveled around in her chair to face the daughter, who still had the cord tight around her neck.

The mother then says to the girl "You are strangling me" and calling her husband's name out loud she tells him "She is strangling me." The figure of the father then appears in view as he makes his way towards his wife and daughter with his back to the camera.

As he faces the girl, there is a sudden movement and he screams out "You tried to stab me! You tried to stab me!"

When I was reading this it made think, this is almost a complete copy of Halloween! For those of you who have never seen the movie (Go rent/buy the Rob Zombie version it's DAMN GOOD!) Michael Myers at a young age, maybe about the same age as this girl, gets picked on because he is a bit different. On, the night of Halloween his big sister is supposed to take him out trick or treating. Rather, the girl decided to have her boyfriend over and have sex. So, Michael goes himself and is really upset. When he returns he snaps and just kills everyone in his house, except his little sister. Like the girl in this story above, both Michael Myers and her share a lot of the problems... only exception is Michael Myers is actually a psycho! This little girl, as demented as she is was just looking for attention... and now she has it.

I think this is really the first time I am lost for words... Attention is easy to get. Be silly, say stupid things, be annoying, I DONT KNOW. But when you plan out an entire murder AND THEN VIDEO TAPE IT, you are just plain stupid.

Maybe the parents are to blame here. I usually try to keep this light but the more I think about it the more I want to get angry. Too often are Movies, Music, Video games are to blame for situations like this and never the parents taking their little girl, the one they choose to make, out to dinner, or out to a movie, OR EVEN JUST SAY I LOVE YOU. It is not hard to give people the attention they need. More attention the better. At least you know what you kids are into.

Full artical - Voices made me do it, says schoolgirl who filmed herself 'trying to kill her parents'

Where the wild things are.

So I am a gamer....

Often "gamer" is confused with nerd, dork, loser, someone who is generally anti-social, and my absolute favorite stereotype and I quote,"ZOMG, you are sucha dick man, are you gay? you must have never of seen a pussy before FAGOT."

Now aside from the 12 year old, lack of witty comment guy. I really don't care what other things I am referred to as. Just for the record though, I really thought it was funny that a 12 year old who I know for a fact is still a virgin, would ever tell me that I am "gay." But the fun thing about things game is people like that. I really wish i saved some of the conversations i have in game. I think this would be a really really fun thing to post about. But on this occasion I didn't.

Back on track though. I would like to stand up for all gamers. Yes, we display rather anti-social behavior. Let's face it though, the sun scares us! If we are out in the sun for more the 13.45 seconds we melt and we die. when a gamer dies and angel loses it's wing. (sad I know I almost tear up when I learned the horrible new as well.) But never the less almost all the stereotyping is right and well that fine by me. I actually love it. It is who I am.

And this is where it becomes REALLY taboo.

I was reading up on some of the "news" ( I use the quotes because the new we get is certainly biased and edited to see on view point.) from the past. And I was surprised to see how many times Music and Video Games are promoting violence. With that statement said I say to all the overly conservative mothers GO FUCK YOUR SELF. Now I understand that that language is uncalled for and crude and generally lacks humor in all ways. But I can not take it ANYMORE! I don't know how many more times I can sit here and listen to Mom's cry about how this video game changed my sons life and now he is a killer. If you honestly think you sons behavior has nothing to do with you. Then please stop reading here, go in to you perfectly arranged kitchen, grab a spoon, preferably a small one, and start stabbing your self in the ear.

If your child is killing some on its might be something you might have missed. I am not a psychologist so I will not try to explain why I think it happens but, I don't think a game is going to make me or my kids pick up a gun and kill someone because they know that is wrong. (not that i have kids but they would know.)

When Stupid People Attack.... we will call this one GOT W

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Sun, 13 Jan 2008 06:33:00 +0000

So here I am.

I was looking for a topic to write about in the last few days. And well I FOUND A GOLD MINE!

This guy I didn't actually find someone showed me this profile. I am not really one to lurk profiles. And if you have read my post prior you know I will not disclose his name here. But If you email me at JJLBlogger@gmail.com. I will gladly give you the URL there.

We will call this worthless abortion of man GOTW.

Well At first glance it really seems that this is a common profile. But then we start to look at the blog title's. And this is where life gets AWESOME!! Let's take a look at the one entitled "Understanding Commitment." Before we rip this to shreds, let's bring to light the fact that under about me. "In a long term engagement so that I don't fuck up for the third time." I don't know about you but this is screaming "HEY I TALK OUT OF MY ASS!" On to the blog entry... Like me he never names anyone. But you can just tell he is really trying hard to make someone feel really bad about them self's. In this the whole blog he also touches on the subject of people not avoiding there duty to go over seas and fight the "war." Little does this cum stain know, people have been avoiding war FOREVER. How many times have we heard about people who are called "draft dodgers" or people running to Canada to not go to Iraq.

So on top of the complete and total LACK of credibility, this guy is totally a moron! I can't really talk any more about this guy because I really am just frustrated with the lack of intelligence this person has.

I have come to a horrible realization, that I am social to just become pissed of at their lack of intelligence.

Case in point -

I have a 7 11 right next to the place I live. I went there to get my daily Vitamin water and Candy bar. As I was perusing the candy isle, I see this 1909 Chevy truck with a full red neck family on the bench seat. As they all pile out, I get the rather awesome idea to strike up a little passing by conversation. I have no idea how in like three seconds of talking we he felt the need to tell me he is on probation.... why in all things holy would you tell me this? I didn't not need to know this. But yet he needed to prove how much of a red neck he really was. I can see by the lack of teeth and the 10 people in the truck who piled out to let you put three dollars of gas in.

For the life of me I can't figure out how people think it is okay to be break every social acceptable rule there is. I pushed social acceptability when I was in high school. I have tattoo's and stretched ears and the like. But those have become socially acceptable (well more so then being a dirty redneck.) The redneck look and attitude has never caught on and will never catch on.

I can tell that this is going to turn into a rant that is going to unreadable and hard to understand so this is where I call it a good night.

Fun Fridays....... WTF

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Fri, 04 Jan 2008 15:51:00 +0000

As if our week didn't already drag by.... So I guess some no talent ass clown with there head so far up someone else's ass they practically think for each other, thought that if we make people do some stupid shit that NO ONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD WANT TO DO it would be a fun Friday. WELL, have I got some news for you. YOU'RE ADOPTED GO KILL YOUR SELF. Oh, and you touch your self at night and that is why, my dear friend, no one likes you! This is why people come to work and kill each other.... I don't know how many people just want to go to work, get what they need done and then go home, kick the dog in the nuts (I DO NOT CONDONE ANIMAL CRUELTY, it's a figure of speech. If you thought that i would really do that, then go in the kitchen get 2 spoons AND REMOVE YOUR EYES), and kiss the wife/husband/girlfriend/mommy/daddy whatever is waiting for you at the end of the day. But no I am in the Air Force it's just not that easy. Instead of going home I am forced into 3 miles runs, mind you NO ONE DOES THIS FOR FUN, so please, for all that is sane in the world STOP CALLING IT A FUN RUN, call what it is. CRUEL AND UNUSUAL TORTURE specially since everyone here is fat and out of shape. We here in this lovely place do nothing but sit at desks.... we are the corporate Air Force. So how, in your right mind, could possibly think that we can run 3 miles and still remain breathing? I imagine that you are just retarded and should wear a bright shiny orange and yellow helmet, so we know who you are.

I don't understand why people can be so special. It's is really not hard to make your people in the work area happy. Let's start by not having them do something they really don't want to. I can pass my fitness test. NEVER ONCE have I failed the test. Why is it i am forced into doing something like run for no reason. If i want to run I will. If for some reason I feel that I cannot pass that damn test, I will run. I think that's the end.

On to something more interesting.

I am, by no means a person who likes to read and hear about pop culture. I listen to talk radio (Bob and Tom in the morning and that's about it,) this morning I heard, what might be the best news EVER. Everything I have ever said about Britney Spears IS TRUE. She is absolutely INSANE. Let's look at the facts shall we. At a very young age she was thrown into "fame," not sure in the Micky Mouse club counts and being famous but she is on TV. Then nature plays its role and BANG!! TIT'S AND ASS. Oh, and if you process her voice she starts to sound like she can sing. So then the big fame starts. And she handles it well. But then then it gets to be too much and guess what we got our self's a moron with KIDS. If anything she should just stop for damn kids. It's not like she needs money. She needs attention.

I SAY FUCK YOU SPEARS. you're the biggest moron on the face of the planet (besides rednecks.....) and you need to realize you are no longer a damn kid. YOU ARE A MOM.

I don't want to stay on that topic to long.

I hate people.

Another Exciting day at work.

noreply@blogger.com (JJL) — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 15:24:00 +0000

I was late today... But no one cares, I might have been able to not show up and gotten away with it. Ahhh the US Air Force.... Gotta love the slack asses I work for. I walked in an hour after i was supposed to be here and well its just hey, how are you. Maybe I should make more of an effort to show that I care... but I really don't.

So, now I sit here and what do i do? Well, the answer is simple look like I am busy. I will most likely read on of the funniest blogs I have ever seen. This guy has go to be the most fun to be around. He reminds me of a friend that I used to work with. We will call him Sammy. (I stray away from real names only because I will usually not ask permission to use them and well I don't want any legal problems.) Sammy and I used to get into these awesome rants about what we think should be different here at work, out in the world of lies, general World of Warcraft stuff, and just useless information about crap from wiki-whatever. Although this guy doesn't rant about things he does. He thinks up things on the spot that are just pee your pants funny, how he is getting away with treating people like this in a professional atmosphere is beyond me. From what I have read this guy is a cab dispatcher and he gets some really big assholes or just generally stupid people. He makes sure that they get what is coming to them. So read and enjoy that.

Blank Top

Although I don't remember who it was on the Cad Forums that introduced me to this but THANK YOU!!!!!

I hope that his blog doesn't detract from mine... although his is just damn funny. He is also up for the blogger Choice award for best humor. So good luck to him and I really hope he wins.

I really have no idea what direction I am going to take this blog. I have my wants and interests and well like every other lame blog out there, I want to be slightly different. Not outrageously different just a little something that can catch the attention of others. And so this might be the direction i am taking it.

I want the strangest stories, web sites, conspiracy stories, just about anything. I think the whole goal with this is just to have a ton of fun and well I like finding strange things that are entertaining on the web.

And that is why I linked to that guys blog. It's off the wall and just a good thing that entertained me for about 2 days.

And this be the first one.

... So here I am. Amongst the millions of other blogs in the world. So, let me make empty promise about how great this site is going to be and much I am going to up date it.

I guess since this is the first one I should take the time to tell all my readers ( Fan base = 0 At the current moment :( ) a bit about my self.

I am Kevin. I am current active duty Air Force, E - 4 Satellite System Operator. Now I know what some are thinking "oh great another left/ right wing radical that's wants to change the world with a blog entry." I only think this because, it just popped in my head as i was saying what i do for a living. And well Lad and Ladies, I really hate to burst your bubble. Somethings, here I'm the blog may be off the wall radical. But I do not like politics and I know little about for the same reason. I wanted a blog because honestly I am bored at work. And yes your tax dollars are helping write this blog. How excited are you? I KNOW I AM. Anyway back to me. I like me so we can go on this topic for a while. I am really big fan of the world around me in the likes of Photography, Technology, and (well not so much the world around me here) Gaming. I have started taking classes (and by started i mean, like last summer) in computer science. I am most likely going to change that to Game creation. Let me take a second and explain what I mean by that. I live in Colorado Springs, so the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs has a degree we call a BI (bachelors of Innovation. It's really a BS.) This degree relates to Game Design and application. So soon i am going to try to get that and get into the gaming world. Alright, now we are all the same page. I am huge gaming fan. I love all kinds of games from Side scrolling Mario Bros. to World of Warcraft. You might see a few entries about those games and my experience with them.

Other then my huge gaming love I talk allot about Technology, Cars and well general life. So, think of this blog a game/tech review with some more thrown in to the big bonn fire we call life.

I want everyone to know that I do reserve the right to flame, offend, or other wise just be a pain in the ass to whom ever i feel is deserving of this. On the other hand, please for the love of god comment on the things you feel you need to. You have a keyboard and mind. USE THEM.

Well, I hope i get a fan base of people that like what I have to say and/or want to say what they have on their minds.
