Steve Jobs has Money

So this weekend I was doing my laundry. I washed it, I dried it. Upon opening the top drier, a small silver object fell (about 5 feet) down onto the concrete floor and bounced with a metallic sounding clack. I looked down, and it took me a second to realize what had happened. I WASHED....AND THEN DRIED MY IPOD. To my horror I ran back to my room and Ashley told me to put it in a bowl of rice, in order to get the water out. "Well its dry" I said. "You dried it too! Oh my god you're screwed" She replied. So started my thought process of the situation, and it went as follows.

1. OMG I WASHED MY IPOD NOW I NEED TO PAY FOR A NEW ONE!

2. Well it's not so bad, now maybe I can upgrade to a touch finally, or at least the new nano.

3. FEW, it still works I don't need a new ipod.

4. Damn now I don't have an excuse to get a new ipod.

So yes, now my ipod works seemingly perfectly, the backlight didn't work at first, but now does. The play button is a little finicky, but works. I have yet to see if the battery is all that it used to be, but so far so good. I can't believe that little 3 year old mp3 player is so resilient, but my cell phones barely make it to the two year mark. So thank you Steve Jobs, by making such good products you saved me 250 bucks that you could have gotten.... OOPS! Your bad.

Because almost anything is better than writing a paper

Mace needs some fun


So he liberally applies deodorant



Then breaks it down



But has to go back home to do his taxes


And then finally reads a book

A Look At Foo

So I learned today that Foo Fighters will be releasing a new album soon (April I've heard) I figured this with White Limo, but also tomorrow we get another sample of the album with Rope. I am pretty excited for a new Foo Fighters album, and I realllllllyyy hope its good. The last FF album Echoes, Silence, Patience and Grace was pretty good, maybe not as good as some of the others, but still a great addition to the FF collection. I started to like FF when I saw the video for Best of You, and that was really when I was starting to get into music in general. Foo Fighters are a great example of a great rock band, they are versatile, consistent and make great music. Songs like The Pretender, and No Way Back are awesome screaming hard rock classics, but then also there are songs like Everlong and Walking After You that are softer and quieter affairs. A good band can make one style of music well, but a great band can do many styles, one just as good as the other. Foo Fighters is a great band. 


Also Dave Grohl is like the coolest person in music. He plays pretty much anything beastly. Drums in Nirvana, Queens of the Stone Age, and Them Crooked Vultures, and Guitar and Vocals in Foo Fighers. Foo Fighters and Dave Grohl seem like they can do just about anything they want, did you see them perform The Who classic Young Man Blues at the VH1 rock honors? It was amazing.


Here is my top  5 Foo Fighters list"


5. My Hero 
4. Walking After You

3. Everlong
2. All My Life
1. Stacked Actors

So there you have it Foo Fighters are a great band, a band I am glad to support, and one I hope you will love as well. Although they don't believe HIV has anything to do with AIDS (Seriously) So yeah thats weird. BUT ANYWAY, I can't wait for Rope Tomorrow, and lets hope its better than the new* Soundgarden album. And feel free to let me know if you disagree with my top 5 list, but of course you'd be wrong, (SMILEY FACE!)

*yeah sorta new I know its more like a greatest hits but still Black Rain blows.

Lady Gaga > Obama

So did you know that Lady Gaga, Justin Beiber and Britney Spears all have more followers than Obama on twitter? Their thoughts are just more important I guess. Also twitter itself is 12th on the list of most followers. Twitter is losing at its own game. Nicely played pop music stars.

Black Ops Videos

So everyone should check out my vid i posted to youtube from black ops. Its cool that you can upload them right to youtube, but why you no HD?
Y U NO HD?
Anyways the theater feature is cool, but it does strange loading problems, like bodies disappearing, and noticeable in the ice bridge video, destructible item loads. In the  video on the second camera angle it looks like the bridge was already gone, but that just isn't the case. I treid to compensate for that by having the awkward camera shot of the boat, in order to reset the bridge, and although it works for watching it on the xbox, it doesn't on the youtube upload. I doubt it'll ever be fixed in a patch, but it would be nice if such an awesome feature functioned without annoying flaws like that.

Oh well.

But here are the videos:

First

So I have decided to make a blog. Whoop dee doo basil. I'll occasionally post some crap on here I suppose, IF I feel like it. Maybe review some games, some movies whatever. Write some stuff down just to let other know my thoughts. So first thought... I really like The Rapture. They have a really cool sound, and use lots of cool percussion cow bell type stuff. I first heard of them in GTA IV, with "No Sex for Ben" which besides its awesome title is a pretty good song. I have been listening to then a little and like what I'm hearing.

http://www.myspace.com/therapture
There's a link to their myspace, I know what your thinking, who uses myspace, what are they 30? But whatever you can listen to a few of their songs there.
That is all.
