| Bill Harris Will Not Be Babysitting For Me Anytime Soon |
Tuesday, Jan 29 8:37 PM |
Many of you are probably familiar with Bill Harris and his Dubious Quality blog, and if you're not, you should be, because it's a damn fine blog that mixes his thoughts on gaming (lots of icky console stuff though) and family life and sports and...and I think there's been a lot of posts on there about monkeys sticking their finger in their butt, sniffing it, and then passing out. I'm not even kidding about that. It's an excellent blog, and Bill is a great guy.
Today Bill put up a post featuring a shot of some of his young son's favorite toys, with unexpected and hilarious results! See for yourself.
I can only assume that Bill lets his child play with the monkey in an effort to teach his son humility.

| A Boy and His Bird |
Tuesday, Jan 1 11:09 PM |
After much deliberation and gnashing of teeth, I finally decided to bite the bullet and spend the 5200 gold needed to obtain my epic flying mount. The fact that Lucy seemed on the verge of making the purchase herself and stealing the honor of being the first guildie with an epic birdy had nothing to do with my decision at all, no sir.

| Fear and Loathing in Zul'Farrak |
Monday, Dec 17 1:10 PM |
With a guild as small as our (6 accounts, 39 characters, awww yeah!) there's some obvious issues. First off, unless we're willing to regularly do pugs (which in general, we're not), we just don't get to play in a group very often. Which leads to the second issue - we're not what you'd call polished in group play. Not that we're horrendous, but if you compare us to a guild who runs five-mans or instances several times a week...well, there's no comparison. 99% of our career WoW time has been solo or perhaps in pairs, which means that despite each of us playing the game hundreds or even thousands of hours, we still have plenty to learn about the various group roles and group dynamics as a whole.
The third thing, and the one that I'll be blabbering on about a bit, is due to our guild roster's low numbers, even when we have a full group of five, we sometimes have to make due with some rather whacky party configurations. Take last weekend in Zul'Farrak. The stars aligned and there were actually five of us ready and willing to play. Four of the five party members were just fine - a hunter, warlock, druid, and priest (me), all between levels 46 and 49. Perhaps a smidge high for that instance, but overall, pretty groovy. But our fifth guy was the fly in the ointment - a 56 hunter and 55 pet controlled by your beloved Jomama. He really had no right being there (and I'm not sure if he even wanted to be there), but seeing as how Joseph's next lower character was a noobish little 29 priest, and how J.D., the sixth member of our guild, was unavailable, either we go in with a hunter who's about seven levels too high, or we don't go in at all.

| F.E.A.R. Perseus Mandate Review (on Gameshark) |
Sunday, Dec 16 11:56 PM |
I told ya'll one was in the works, didn't I? I wouldn't lie to you. Check it here.
Still trying to get used to my stuff being edited. Only a few fairly minor changes this time around - really just a few sentences removed. Mostly I just wonder why the particular changes are made, but my editor ain't exactly the most forthcoming fellow in the world.

| What the Snuh is the Snuhing Snuh? |
Thursday, Dec 13 8:38 PM |
Okay sports fans, here's the results of the Philadelphia Flyers last 10 games:
loss-win-loss (in OT)-win-loss-win-loss-win-loss-win.
So of course, tonight they're down by four goals late in the second period, likely making it 11 straight games of alternating wins and losses.
They're so incredibly inconsistent that they've actually become completely consistent.
And young Mike Richards signed to a freakin' 12 year contract extension? I can't decide if that's absolutely brilliant, or if I should be puking all over myself. I just can't make up my mind. I keep flipping back and forth...
I'm just like the Flyers, rock!
UPDATE: The Flyers have now lost three straight, so I should have kept my damn mouth shut.

| Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened Review (on Gameshark) |
Friday, Oct 26 1:05 AM |
My second review for Gameshark is now up, which you can read over here.
I'll give you a hint: it's not pretty.
On a side note, I have to admit that after years of having complete control over my content, suddenly having my stuff edited by someone else is taking a bit of getting used to. A good 500 words were chopped off the review - perhaps I should release a Director's Cut.

| Atttack on Pearl Harbor Review (on GameShark) |
Saturday, Sep 29 7:31 PM |
The folks over at GameShark, who otherwise seem like nice, intelligent, sane people, have seen fit to hire me on as a freelancer. My first effort is a review for the freewheelin' aerial combat game Attack on Pearl Harbor. Check it here.
Super special bonus for you Groovy readers: My original tagline for the review, which, alas, was not used by my editor, was "Attack on Pearl Harbor is like your mom: shallow, violent, and nice to look at."
