The WhiteStar

Your dreams of electric sheep... I mean cars, are closer at hand than you believe. The Tesla corporation, (the one bringing you the electric sports car) have bought land are beginning construction of a new plant in Albuquerque New Mexico. This plant will start production in 2009 of the Whitestar, the sedan electric car. The price on it though it still steep, around 50 to 70 thousand dollars for this all electric car. It may be expensive but I'm looking forward to this car coming out, maybe it will get the other automakers to realize that people want to drive a car that doesn't cost a C-note to fill up. Keep your eyes and ear open, and I'll let you know more details about the Whitestar as they come out.

Starcraft II

After many a long year since it's first release back in 1998, Starcraft finally has a sequel, Starcraft II. The announcement was made this weekend in Korea and the net is singing it's praise... well the geeks are anyway :). I loved the first Starcraft games, and the Broodwar expansion as well. Now I have to go back and play them again the get familiar with the story line. Till the game hits the shelves I shall chant, My Life for Auir!

Full Length Trailer of Transformers the Movie

Nooooooooo!!!!!!

It's offical, season four is the last season of Battlestar Galatica. Man this really bites, the show is gritty, real, hard core scifi. You just got to love it. In case you've been living under a rock, I'm not talking about the orginal Battlestar Galatica that came out in the 70-80's. This one is the SciFi Channel series that takes the whole story and sits it on it's ear.

The Cylons have been missing for 40 years, no one know what has happened to them. Then one day they come back. They destroy all 12 planets that the humans live on, and the only ones to escape are about 50,000 people in a large number of civillian ships with one old and partial retired Battlestar to protect them, the Galatica. This is the story of how a small group of humans tries to fight off the Cylons and make it's way to a mythical planet called Earth that supposedly is the 13th Colony.

The story is amazing, with a ton of intrigue back flips and a few somersaults as well :). The camera work takes some getting used to but once you do, it gives it that touch of realism, kinda of like a camera crew is actually following everything around as it really happens.

I will be sad to see it go, but I definitely want to watch the series again and again, and you should as well. Check out BattleStar Galatica on the SciFi channel Friday nights and let me know what you think.

Happy Birthday Isabella

I have this other woman in my life... I'm not sure if my wife knows about her, but she just recently had a birthday Wednesday, and she looks just amazing. She'll knock your socks off when she gives you a smile, and will blow you away when she laughs. And the best part is when she lights up when I come in the door.

Happy First birthday Isabella Daddy loves you.

Ah the Classics

This weekend ABC Family was showing 2 classics.... Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle's 1 and 2. Yeah, yeah, I know not really classics, but hey, these movies are over 15 years old and should be considered as much. Watching them again was kinda nostalgia of when I used to watch this stuff all the time. And for the time, the effects where pretty neat, all though compared to now days the fight sequences seemed slow, I guess I'm just used to Jackie Chan's fast fist not :). If anyone feels like taking a trip down memory lane, check out these two movies, (the third one was no where near as good) and let me know what you think. Next week, Transformers the 1986 movie :).

Kid at Heart

I know I'm a kid at heart, I still like to look through the toy isle at Walmart and such, but this new line of transformers toys has me excited. He may not be the same old Optimus Prime that everyone is used to but he still looks cool. Check him out a Hasbro's redesigned website. Enjoy.

Transformers "Prime Speaks Update"

Friday I posted a link to the clip from the new Transformers movie that shows Optimus Prime speaking, (yep he's got lips and all) Now Paramount has requested that Youtube and other sites that had the clip posted take it down. I just wanted to let everyone know that it's no longer.... on those sites. But it can be found, just leave me a comment with your email address and I'll let you know how :).

All Games are not Evil

To everyone who blames video games for all the world problems, here's a company that is helping someone else. Check out the article here

Optimus Prime Speaks!

I'm an uber Transformer geek, so I think this just freaking rocks, Optimus Prime Speaks!!! (aka Petter Cullen is the voice of Prime)

This is an unfinished TV clip, but you can see some pretty good CGI work in some of the shots.

Enjoy

Getting the Facts Straight

Do to some information that has come to me, I've learned that some of post about Argo happenings are incorrect. So until I get the correct information that I need. I'm taking down the post for now.

Argo Happenings

I know I have not been keeping everyone up to date with what's going on in the Argo vs Springville rumble. So I'll point you over to my wife's site. She's alot better at summing these things up and writing about it.

Whenever there is an update about Argo and Sprinville I'll post the link here that points you too it.

Transformers the Movie

I'm getting more and more excited as I see more pictures from the new Transformers movie that's coming out this July. I don't care what anyone says, I believe this movie will be awesome. Check out some of these pics and let me know what you think.

Back from the Dead.... Sorta

Well time for a little update. I know I don't do this as much as I should but I have an excuse for last week. I got the ever fun loving flu, oh yeah the temps over 100 degrees, the coughing, sore everything. Yeah, it was fun, I must say though, I'm glade it's gone and over with, and hopefully did not spread it to my wife or child. The fun part now is the sinus drainage and stopped up noise. All though I do believe I have found a way to solve all of our fuel problems.... mucus. Now hear me out, there are probably thousands of tons of mucus thrown away into tissues, sleeves, hankies, and anywhere else. Now if we could take all that and collect it into one location with a little refining you can burn the carbon out of it thus have a renewable fuel source.... Just think, every sneeze could get you another mile down the road.

So Long Old Blue

We'll I finally got around to taking down the WildBlue Satellite dish outside our house. We now use DSL to get online, which turns out to be cheaper than what we had before. I will say this though Wildblue Internet was good while it lasted, it was hardly down. Only when the Dish network went out did the internet, but I must say the upload speeds where slow. So good by old blue, you served us well.

Since the equipment is bought and paid for, I'm going to be putting it up for sale for about $60 plus shipping and handling. email me at zor37@hotmail.com subject wildblue for more info.

Spiderman III

On a lighter note, this is the new preview that showed on NBC.com last night during Hero's. Enjoy, and look for the split second image of Venom at the end.

Transformers The Movie!!!

Okay I know I'm late in saying this, but the full blown trailer for the new Transformer's movie is online. There is also a Japanese trailer online that has a little more footage of the humans and transformers located Here. This is a movie that I have been looking forward to being made ever since the CGI tech reached the level of Lord of the Rings. I can't wait to see it, and I plan on being one of the first in line to see it opening weekend, no mater how many people are there. So see you at the movies this summer. It looks like it's going to be a good one.

The Reason we have car accidents

This artical caught my eye as I was looking around online So, What Explains Car Accidents Before Videogames? This is another example of people not tacking responsibility for their own actions. By blaming, guess what, Video Games, for more accidents on the road. It couldn't possibly have anything to do with more people being on the road. But maybe that's just me. So remember next time you get pulled over for a speeding ticket, just let the officer know that you where playing Gran Turismo 4 over the weekend and that's why you where speeding.

The End of an Era

On Tuesday November 28th the X signed off the air for the last time. This makes if official, there are no alternative radio stations within Central Alabama. Oh sure there is 103.7, but that's a top 40 station that plays mostly pop and rap. Or I could listen to any of the number of country stations out there and rap stations (never mind the fact that I hate both). But I'm not bitter, the only reason they took the X off the air is because they moved it to a lower strength signal so you could hardly listen to the station, which caused it to lose listeners (all though the way they determine who listens to a radio station by taking a survey of people that DON'T actually listen to the station is a wonderful way to count those listeners). Or the fact that they show that replaces the X is a sports talk show from the AM dial. I'm not bitter at all; I want to thank them for turning me towards Satellite radio, so now I have to PAY to listen to music that used to be free and only played on ONE station in central Alabama! So thank you Citadel Broadcasting for thinking that the only thing people want to hear in Alabama is country or rap.

VOTE

This is your reminder to go out and vote tomorrow. Because if you do not vote tomorrow, I don't want to hear your belly aching about how the elections turn out. So get off your butt's and go vote!

Thank you
