I think I set this blog to private, but I don't know, because it still looks normal to me, because I'm me. So whatever. I'm abandoning this page, and I started a tumblr, so check that out, I guess. Bye bye. Or something. Also, I'll probably be posting a few of my older posts from here to there. Yay reruns!

So, I recently subscribed to www.reddit.com/r/writing, and am now inundated by people who write more than me, and set up pages to share their writing. I decided that I could do that too. With this thing I have! Maybe. I dunno. A few points, to catch you up on the things you may have missed. I'm Greg. I'm currently 26, and work at a Target in Austin, TX I'm engaged to a wonderful woman named

That's how long it's been since I was born. Twenty-five years. Wow. It's kind of intimidating. I could easily dive into what I haven't done, but instead I thought I'd take the time to talk to you about a few things I HAVE done. This shouldn't take long, I have work in the morning. So, do you remember a while ago, I talked about reviewing video games as a hobby? No? I'm not even sure I really did

I signed into my Zune.net page the other day, and this is what I found: Seriously. WTF? I know, I know, it's bad enough Miley Cyrus is on my Zune profile to begin with. (By the way, welcome back to my blog. I know you missed it.) But 2.7k plays? More than double that of her nearest competitor. What the hell, Zune shuffle?

...cuz you see, it's Lent. I'm on my third Sunday off, and I'm starting to crack. The persistent wi-fi around me from my neighbor makes ignoring the Internet far more based on will-power than I was anticipating, with my "Just unplug the modem and you're back in 1992" plan of action. My life does revolve around the Internet. That's the scary thing I've come to realize. I get lost in mindless,

I know I've made like 5 of these today, but I had a few closing notes before I went to bed, and I figured, if I committed to writing them all down, I'd have a better shot at sticking to them if I committed them to paper. But I suppose the Internet works too.Firstly: someone bought Jazz for less than $20K! I'm so jealous. I guess that since they're making a new movie this year, they'll have more

Yay flexible time-space continuum.While I'm here, I'd like to express my displeasure at the quality of my Netflix instant feed on my X-Box.

It's been a while since I posted to this. Haven't had TOO much to say (though I did write a short story / cold-open-to-a-novel-or-something I should post here soon).

Wonderwall. Jesus Christ what a weird movie. I'd never heard of it before last night. Apparently George Harrison (the Beatle) had a hand in making it. It was presented to me in as one of those 60's drug flicks, so I went in expecting to watch a 90 minute acid trip on film and, being sober, get bored out of my mind. I was very pleasantly surprised. I was going to put a lot of effort into

I should be going to bed, but I had two funny thoughts that hit me tonight, and I want to write them down before I go to sleep.Firstly, I wanted to show you this video of the new game Mirror's Edge, as a point of reference. Basically, it's a first person platformer. You run and jump across rooftops or various other surfaces in a style reminiscent of free-running, as you can see. You know who else

It seems pretty obvious, when you think about it. The Angels, I mean. It was a brilliant marketing strategy. ANJ Medical started with life-saving prosthetics and internal hardware, and the new survivors were dubbed "ANJels." It was cute, I guess; people brought back to their loved ones from the brink of death, like angels.It didn't take long before the Angels started showing up in the news.

I just got a strange call that was pretty obviously paid for by the Republican candidate for Texas House of Representatives. Or at least, some local branch of the Republican party. The interviewer, who didn't seem too thrilled to be interviewing me (I think he had a cold), asked first about how well I knew the candidates at a federal and local level, which ones I would likely be voting for, and

So, in addition to dropping the price on the Xbox 360 to $299, Microsoft dropped this little news bit on me as well:My question, and the reason I'm showing you guys it, is why did they put this on my 360?

I saw this article about 5TB 3.5in HDDs, and it contained a bizarre quote....two of the drives will boast enough capacity to store everything in your brain.My question is... do they test that? I mean, yes, I'm sure there's some obscure way of quantifying human thought or whatever they're saying it could store. But the real implication, the way I read it anyway, is that "two of the drives will [..

It's creeping me out that there's no 'a' in 'independence'. It sounds like it should have one at least, but no. Weird.I've decided that Independence Day must be one of President Bush's favorite movies. It opens with Bill Pullman playing a charismatic but unpopular president. Soon, though, foreign powers (aliens) arrive and, seemingly without warning, destroy many recognizable and memorable US

Or was the rat some sort of fashion cannibal, wearing the pelt of another rat.Speaking of bizarre questions on my mind, I've been

Sorry I haven't been posting recently. ALL YEAR LONG, in fact. Just haven't really had anything worth saying. I do have to say though, this was the PERFECT time of year to let my kittens out for the first time. My perennial laziness kept them from getting any sort of shots or other medical treatment until just recently, with them about 6 months old. (Maybe more, I dunno.) So, before then, I knew

Kittens don't eat fruit.Sorry, the above conversation between myself and my kittens was too funny to not mention. Tonight I've been re-bitten by the writer's bug. Dunno why. But I do have a bit to share. Okay, back. Hadda get my burrito out of the microwave. More on that later.So, I dunno if I told you, but I bought a kilt. I like it. It's different. It's comfy. It feels like "me", somehow.

I've got to make a wish list for my family. That is, a list of things I would like to get for my birthday or Christmas (Dec. 24th and 25th, respectively), so my family will have ideas on what to buy me. Last year I made my wish list on it's own blog, and I'll probably do that again. I'll give you the link when I do, but for now I'm just gonna spitball a few ideas for things I'd like to get,

I guess I'm on a writing kick tonight?At work, we don't get cable. Our breakroom TV only gets over the air signals, so roughly 5 and a half channels. During the daytime, when most of my shifts are, those channels are dominated by Jerry Springer, Divorce Court, and some sort of all knowing paternal expert telling elated vagrants "You are NOT the father!" In short, shit. And even worse, soap operas

I just wanna be loved unconditionally. I yearn for physical contact, someone to hold me at night when I go to sleep, and to lie next to me when I wake up. Someone to talk to me when it's quiet. Someone to watch dumb movies with me, or play video games with. Someone to tell me I'm awesome for being me, to find beauty in my flaws, and to let me know when I'm being an idiot (it happens more often

So I moved in finally. Not completely, of course, but enough that I am now living at my new apartment full time. I've got the Internet and a bed. I need no more.Actually setting up the Internet was relatively easy. I got a random telemarketer calling from AT&T asking if I wanted to get DSL. I did. I was actually trying to apply online, but since the phone line wasn't in my name, it was difficult.

So, over the last month, I've been getting around, and so has word about the new Transformers movie. Of course I've heard of it. I've gotta say, I think it's really cool to see a whole bunch of media attention to the tiny robots that defined my childhood and much of my adult life, but just because you first heard about it when you went to see Shrek doesn't mean I haven't known about it since

Jay Leno wrote something about how satisfied Americans are with the country. And he's right on a lot of things. We have so much food we are going obese with it, and a steadily rising industry ready to deal with that problem, too. We are a country of excess, and it's terrifyingly wonderful to live here. I suppose that some portion of the 67 unhappy percent are upset because we don't give enough to

There's an episode of Star Trek: Voyager where the ship starts melting randomly. Also, the equipment, and the crew. All of these are important parts of the mission of Voyager: to get back home. So, naturally, they do everything possible to solve this. They eventually figure out WHY they're melting. They are not the real Voyager, they are a copy made years ago when Voyager landed on a "Demon"

So, yeah, Pokemon Diamond and Pearl launched today. Rough day at work, though not for the reasons I expected. I was anticipating a huge crowd of kids looking to catch them all, and I figured I'd spend all day running back and forth between the games case and the cash register. Unfortunately, fate had a different hand in store for me. The ad set up was horribly mis-managed, so (long boring

Question 1: I'm sure you've seen those videos of the Beatles being chased by crowds of screaming fans. Now, don't get me wrong, you want to be heard by the band, and especially during the concert, you need to make a lot of noise (just, please don't drown out the actual music, I wanna kinda hear what I paid to hear, not you asking Paul to marry you).

It's a mashup of Halo and Metriod! Wow, it's well made, though a REAL fan-wank. I love the fact that Master Chief can jump around like Neo. Never mind the fact that half of the choreography in that movie is ripped directly from the Matrix, almost frame for frame (bullet time and everything, synched up to the music even), just the idea that Master Chief could ever preform such an acrobatic

This is old, but I decided to link it anyways. It basically says that WoW teaches the wrong lessons, such as "time spent is more important than what was actually done" and "group play is better than solo."Interestingly enough, I was linked there from a Pokemon thread dealing with EV Training in an open, Online envirnment. For those of you who don't know, EV training is the practice of beefing up

YouTube's been frustrating me lately. There's a video there where Bill O'Reilly and and Geraldo Rivera have a shouting match over immigration. It's pretty nuts stuff. I always thought of Geraldo as Bill's little buddy, after the way the two of them went after Comedy Central's fake news. But to see these people so angry over this... It's just frightening. My thoughts are that Geraldo was right (

I finally found it! The Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential campaign ad! The one where the little girl gets blown up! Oh wow, I've honestly never seen it before. Powerful stuff. Apparently it was so disturbing they only ran it on TV once. Good thing, too. I dunno if I would wanna watch that thing during every half hour of TV during an election cycle. I watched the network news while staying with my

With Your EARS. Ew...So yeah, Zune. Microsoft's iPod. I have never owned an MP3 player with more than a gig of storage. I haven't completely felt the urge, though I've got to say, wandering up and down the aisles of CD's at Target, the temptation grows. I can only imagine the terror that grips employees of Best Buy, Frys or (collective gasp) Waterloo Records. I've really become enamored with the

So I found this awesome article online. Uncomfortable Questions: Was the Death Star Attack an Inside Job? I couldn't help but write a response (after I was prompted by my friend Dan to do so). The submissions form isn't working just now, but I thought I'd share my thoughts here:Point by point here:1) As anyone who's studied the Death Star blueprints will tell you, shielding something as large as

Okay, not really, but kinda. I've managed to do two semesters in a row, without failing too much. (Yay!) I guess that's a little overzealous, I'm still in the second semester, but I am, as always (over)confident. You shut up, parenthetical notations.

Wow, it's nearly the New Year. I haven't posted here since October. What all have I been up to? Plenty. I've decided, for starters, that I'm going to quit World Of Warcraft. It was fun for a time, but I've fallen out of favor with it. Plus the last few months I haven't really had any time or inclination to play. Even now, on break, I don't really feel like playing at all. So yeah, I'm donating

It's been a while since I did one of these. You'd think that'd mean I'd do a good one now, but I'm not gonna. Instead I'll show you this quiz I took:Gnome MageGnomes are strange little things.

Okay, I'm out. I can take transforming into robots. I loved the idea of robots turning into cars. I was less thrilled with them turning into animals, but the show was good, so I accepted it. Then we got not one, not two, but FOUR cheesy Anime-style spin offs, where the main characters were the children sidekicks. Not only were they worse than Spike ever was, they were the primary actors of the

I have X-Fire. Do any of you have X-Fire? Lemme know so I can add you to my X-Fire. Currently the only games I have that run with X-Fire are World of Warcraft and Day Of Defeat, but if I see a bunch of you on some other game, I may spring for that, too.Also, I was thinking about making a more "professional" blog dealing with casual (as opposed to hardcore) gaming.

I am worth $2,300,020 on HumanForSale.comJust thought I'd share.All my pokemon are going quite well, thanks for asking, and are now all between levels 50 and 60, which is a good range. I'll try to get them all to level 60, then see how they fare at a run through the Elite Four.I had a busy day yesterday. Saw a couple of random movies: The Black Dahlia and Man of the Year.

So I just noticed I'm posting this on Friday the 13th. Fun, huh? I suppose I should have some Halloween tips or something, but I've got nothing on my mind tonight about that. Just a couple random blurbs I wanted to write in before I went to sleep.Here's how my day started off. After getting to bed late, I woke up to my alarm at 6:30. Then I went back to sleep, and when I checked my clock (

Okay, been about week, so I'll post. I've actually got a bit to talk about tonight. Firstly and formost, I'm in New Jersey right now. At my dad's shore house, to be specific, using my neighbor's wireless network. It's kinda tenuous at the moment, as there's only one spot where it'll work. I'm not gonna leave it on 24/7, at least to start, because I want to take it back downstairs and use it as a

*Cue Creepy Music*The narrator seems really emotionally invested in this, a sure sign of bias, but, to paraphrase an episode of House I can't seem to find the quote from right now, "When there's an injustice going on, the right course of action is not to be sitting around calmly discussing it. The right course of action is to be screaming about it at the top of your lungs." I'm not a screamer

Two little things that came up in my mind today, that I wanted to share. First off, I need a plushy Snorlax. It would rock.And the other thing: has anyone ever called Paris Hilton and her ilk "Heir Heads?" (Note: it doesn't show up well in text, but the word "heir" is pronounced "air".) It seems like a good fit for them. If no one else has claimed it before, I do now. Anyone calling someone an

While working last night I came across some interesting thoughts. I will share them for you now.First off, I saw a box of Corn Pops cereal that readBIG YELLOW TASTESWEET PUFFED CRUNCHWhat does yellow even TASTE like? I mean, I know I have a smelling disablity, but a yellow taste seems like something I would have heard about somewhere else. Also, how can a taste be big? Or maybe they're referring

Internet friend (okay, some guy whos blog I read) posted his feelings about the anniversary. I'd love to agree with the sentiment, but you know my argumentative nature, and I really got on a roll. Give his post a read. Then, you can find my comment(s) down below pretty easy, they're hard to miss.

So I put up my wishlist blog. I'd like to say it went off without a hitch, but hitches were, in fact, involved. However, it looks like it was a problem on Blogger's end, not mine, so everything is fine now. That said, I am left with a large empty list that needs filling, and I'm hesitant about what to put on it. I've decreed that, until Christmas, I will not buy anything I list, and I'm already

It's Fall. Well, not technically, but pretty much. School is starting, temperatures are dropping, and not as many people are wearing swimsuits to Target anymore. So what does all this mean? It's time for me to write up a Christmas List.Usually it's not a hard task. Just write up a list of thing I want and forward it to everyone in my family. But this year I have a couple of quandries.

Wow. I was listening to Bob FM, the local "we play anything, we're like an iPod on shuffle" radio station, and The Spice Girls "Wannabe" came on. I listened to it, and, for cheesy pop, it wasn't bad. I'm not about to get their CD, or add the song to my (still pretty meager) play list, but in small doses, like once every year or so, it's okay. I think the same is true for all pop. I have three

Well, I was looking for my notebook that I used as a journal of sorts while I was on break. I figured it was time to write up all that great stuff I'd written in the middle of the night while watching the Daily Show. Even on vacation, I have no life. X_X To make matters worse, I couldn't find the notebook. However, the bug has bitten, so I shall begin writing.Whilst looking for the notebook, I

Saw this on Google news. "The Republicans will exploit Joe Lieberman's defeat by painting the Democrats as anti-military and weak on national security, say Washington observers." Just so you know, Lieberman was defeated in the senatorial primaries for the state of Connecticut (I think), by Ned Lamont. I saw Mr. Lamont on the Colbert Report, and for my money, Lieberman's defeat can be at least

Okay, time I spilled the beans, I guess. In addition to having a wonderful job (kinda sorta), a newly re-emerging college career (third times the charm?) and a nice two week vacation in southern California (with family, but I suppose that's not worth complaining about), I've gotten a new computer for myself.Nothing fancy, it's pretty much this year's old bottom of the line model, but it'll beat

I found this movie, and thought you might get a kick out of it. By the way, I have the full audio of his speech somewhere, so I'll just upload it. I especially love hearing all the people listening in the background, "...oh my god..." Please, PLEASE, someone tell me that someone stood up to correct this guy's ramblings.

So, as many of you know, I work in the electronics department at Target. Today they were on my case about getting a red card, which is making someone sign up for a Target Visa. I hate doing that, it always makes me feel like such a tool to try and sell people a credit card. But I did end up helping out every guest I could find, and that does always make me feel good. One family in particular was

I'm happy to report the rumors of my death have been vastly exaggerated. On the other hand, so have the rumors of rumors of my death, so there you go. It's been a month, just about. I swear I've been meaning to post. It just kept slipping my mind. I'm at level 28 now in Warcraft, so I'll bet that's got something to do with it. Good news is that Target seems to only want me 2 days a week. It's a

Racing, really. I've got ideas out the wazoo. I've had half-completed stories surfacing on a near daily basis, getting into tiny swordfights with the half-completed stories I've already started on but, again, have not yet completed. I've had a rant going on in my head about how Magneto makes an interesting character from multiple perspectives. Along the way the Constructicons merged into that one
