Xbox 360Okay, I’ve read a lot of negative blog posts about the Xbox 360 so let’s switch it up and go with a positive one. Despite actually having problems with mine I will still defend it. This article is going to be more of a rebuttal to Colin’s article on The Uber Geeks, “The main reason I’m not getting an Xbox 360.”

1. Mistakes are always there

If you don’t believe this look at every single console launch since the shift from cartridges to discs. Both PlayStations suffered from overheating problems and just like the Xbox 360, the PlayStation 2 to this day still has a tendency to eat discs if you stand it vertically.

Fort Minor – Kenji

Fort Minor - The Rising TiedThis has got to be one of the single greatest songs that I have ever heard. It is one of those songs that I am not afraid to admit that chokes me up, in fact no matter how many times I listen to it there is one part of the song that brings a tear to my eye.

I love to hear music with a purpose, meaning and finally have some substance and this song is just one of the many songs on the Fort Minor album The Rising Tied that contains this. It’s not really something that fits in “my normal genere” of music, but good music is good music and this album and band gets all the respect in the world from me, especially if they can follow this album up.

What did you want to be when you grew up?
Gynocolagist for the stars.

Did you follow through? If not, what happened?
I realized that in my carreer I might have to encounter people such as Courtney Love and that kind of turned me away from that.

Is your life turning out the way you thought it would when you were a kid? If not, is it better or worse?
Meh, we all have ups and downs.  Life can be great at times and a total shit bomb the next day, it all depends on what we are dealt that day in particular.

Paradoxes aside, if you could time-travel back to when you were 10 years old, what would you tell your 10-year-old self?
Take the blue pill.

Do you think the child you were, would like the adult you’ve become?
No, because as a children we are irresponsible and void of emotion.   We spend are childhood not caring about our own actions and the actions as others.  As adults we develop this thing called compassion and feeling — now I base my actions and choices not only on myself but on others as well…and a kid would hate that.

There’s a man who sits on the mantle of my fire place because I don’t get enough calcium and have bad knees. It makes me wonder if that somehow someway I am going to be falling into the tub of citric acid and get it all up in my nose and whatnot.

When I shot the sheriff I smiled and said “good morning sir, what a fine looking jacket that is.” I fled the scene of the crime using my jet pack which I had stolen of the man who sits on the mantle of my superb fireplace. I fell out of the sky like a cloud who has lost its way only to find out that the badgers and bees no longer wanted to be its friend.

I remember this one night at the bar, now keep in mind the details of this story might be a bit sketchy…like I said I was a the bar. Anyhow there I was sitting next to my good friend Doug, I thought this was weird because he was my good friend, yet I had never met him…once again I was at a bar.

I was drinking Coors Light like I always do when all of a sudden I heard this girl order a “Wet Pussy.” All I could do was laugh, not because I’m immature and cannot handle hearing the name of a legitimate drink…but the whole thing was just ridiculous. She looked at me and said “What’s so funny?” I replied with “You don’t DRINK a wet pussy.”

I remember this one time…it was a warm summer day in the middle of January when I decided that I was going to go ice skating. I’m pretty sure I must have been drunk or high or tripping on acid because I had never been compelled to go ice skating before. So I grab my skates and head down to the pond.

So I’m driving my 4-wheeler to the store where I was going to go fishing on this cool autumn day in August when I saw my good friend Billy. Now I don’t tell people I’m friends with Billy because he’s a fucking loser…no one really likes him…Billy if you’re reading this man I’m sorry…but you’re cool you fucking loser. He was flying a kite…I remember thinking this was odd because it was 1 AM in the morning and it was kind of creepy.

The Story of AJAXI typically do short stories and this one will be somewhat of a story, but as Colin brought up a point to some people earlier about everything being AJAX. Now I am not the biggest Web 2.0 guy, because quite frankly a lot of it is used in a useless way where it is unneeded and adds no value to anything…but I would like to bring you the story of AJAX.

So one day I was sitting in my room doing some programming wishing that I had a different convention of going about things. I thought, “Wow, I got CSS, I got JavaScript, I got a client-side language…what could I do to make this run better and more real-time?” I did some research and to my joy I was able to come up with a solution…so I got to work inventing the XMLHttpRequest Object. It took me about 90 billion years and by the time I was finished I was kind of hungry and tired.

Who is your favourite superhero?
Jesus

If you were a superhero, which one would you be?
Probably Spiderman even though I hate spiders…just flying throughout the city would be pretty cool.

Justice League or Injustice League?
There is no justice. Justification exists but even in justification there is typically injustice.

Which supervillain would you be?
Dr. Evil because a great villian will always make you laugh and he does just that.

If you could have superpowers, what would they be?
Everyone always says the ability to fly or invisibility. I want to have the power of Pi and infinity combined…I want to be able to rewrite the Matrix from hex to assembly…I want to be the architect…I want to be the lord of the dance!

In a time of need there is only one person to call…you guessed it…wait, could you share your guess with me because I need an idea for this character…never mind I’ll think of something…ok, how about Blasty Boils the bad ass badger boy. Anyhow, that’s who you call in your time of need.

So I was sitting around my house the other day as I do most of the time, sometimes I do other stuff but for the most part sitting in the house is where you’re likely to find me…anyhow I realized that there was a shortage of frozen pizzas in the freezer…and by shortage I mean we were completely out. What the hell am I supposed to do? Sure I could have ate something else or got in my car to go get some more but that doesn’t make any sense…well it does but when it comes to my senseless stories that would be down right ridiculous.

So there I was without a damn pizza and I knew I had to call Blasty. I let the phone ring and realized I dialed the wrong number when I heard “Hello.” Because it was not Blasty’s voice. So I’m all like “Oh, sorry dude…wrong number.” They were all like “It’s alright.” Anyhow I quickly dial again, this time making sure I have the number correct. Success! I was able to correctly use the telephone and able to connect to the person who was my intended recipient of the conversation. Yay me!

When someone says “its cold as hell outside.” What Bible or teachings have you been exposed to? I’m not a religious person but anyone should know that hell is always depicted as a place with fire and very hot.

When someone asks “you didn’t want anything did you?” Ok so you show up to my house with food and now you decide to ask me if I wanted anything? What does it matter now? Are you truly going to return to where you were just at and get me something if I tell you yes?

If someone calls your house phone and they ask you “hey, where you at?” I don’t know, you called my house phone lets do the math here…I am most likely at the gas station filling up my car.
