In a paraphrase of “H8 da playa, not da game”, The Dude has been hating his commute the last few days (one was 2 1/2 hours— one way), but not the lovely snow which is causing it. The thought of a White Christmas, and an actual WINTER, brings joy to the entire family, especially Deogee…

If someone has some time to kill, and has been a gamer at some time in their life, check out this. It made The Dude laugh out loud.

We travelled to both sets of relatives over Thanksgiving, and everything went very well- lots of good food and company. When we made it to the AKO’s uncle’s after dinner time, everyone was downstairs, and we heard what we thought was karaoke going on as we walked in the door. Turns out that it was…

The Dude is sick and freakin’ tired of weather people who continually complain about Global Warming, and then in the same breath say how wonderful it is that we’re experiencing above average temperatures in November, with no snow in sight. You don’t get to pick and choose, people! If you want it to be a…

The Dude survived the hordes of 78 year old Mac mini owners (??!!!) to get his grubby hands on Apple’s OS X 10.5 “Leopard”. Yup, not exactly a horde of sweaty geeks in line for this- instead tattooed punks, smiling grandparents, and about 40% female were the demographic of the day. Listening to a 73…

It’s time from another post— the leaves are starting to fall, the weather is finally starting to get into that lovely 50-60 degree daytime range, football has started, and that most wonderful of holidays is almost upon us: Halloween! There’s something about crisp fall evenings, moonlight filtering through the stark branches of leafless trees, that…

The Dude and Attila were wandering through Best Buy and ran across this in the DVD section! Evidently the newly released director’s cut DVD was deemed hot enough for some of the big box stores to pick it up (who knew?). Since The Dude had never seen this masterpiece of B-moviedom, he snapped up a…

The Dude doesn’t have anything constructive to write about, so let’s give away some quatloos instead!!! 100 Quatloos to the first person to correctly identify the origin (title and artist) of the 80s song lyrics quoted on the title line without looking it up (ie. cheating).

Last year some of you heard The Dude talking about Ryan vs. Dorkman, a lightsaber battle done by some talented kids in their spare time that resulted in one of them being hired by Lucasarts. Well, tonight while waiting for a work related task to be completed, The Dude found this: Obviously, they’ve got some…

The Dude was really disappointed that the winner of the World Series of Pop Culture was Twisted Misters- it was the one team that he absolutely loathed throughout the entire competition. Now, goodness knows that everyone loves some good trash talking as part of a game (especially if you can back it up), but The…
