Same Ol' Situation

Well it has finally stopped raining here and is getting hot. The less than a hundred days left in hurricane season and the gulf is quite. Hopefully we can make ti through the next few months without any alarms.

I also learned that Crazy Taxi is coming out for the portable game system Sony PSP. Crazy Taxi got it's start on the Sega Dreamcast system and was a truly fun game. You play a one of three or four cabdrivers that must pick up and drop off wares before time runs out. The game is also noted for it's original music by the band "The Offspring."

I can't wait to get my hands on this game.

Rain Rain...

It has been raining for the past week here. I have been enjoying it. Last night I turned all the lights and radio off and just laid there and listened to the rain.

It better than a hurricane.

It Can Happen To You...

Well I have a cold.
It poured a few days ago and I got caught out in the downpour. I was soaked to the skin. My cold is doing better, my throat is feeling much better and I am not as warm as I was.

I saw a video for a new game called Two Worlds. It looked really interesting. It seems to be a good deal like Elder Scrolls: Oblivion. I may have to pick this thing up whenever it is released.

Countdown To Dallas cowboy Football.

I have added a countdown courtesy of pYzam.
It shows the time remaining to the start of the first Dallas Cowboys football game.
I'm looking forward to the new season.

Life is a highway.

Some people claim life is a highway.
Frankly I think life is more like one of those moving sidewalk things you see at airports.
It only goes one way.
Someone else is controlling the speed and they keep changing their minds.
The repair guy take forever to show up.
You spend way to much time just standing around waiting.
And…
There is always some idiot in front of you with his head in the clouds.

Wet Fourth

My hometown had the wettest Fourth of July ever. We had over three and a half inches of rain. The fireworks show was rescheduled for the following night.
