Wii Motion tracking gives you your 3D now.

All I can say is give Johnny his props. This guy has put together some amazing software that is going to revolutionize the way we game in the future. I almost fell out of my seat when he showed the motion tracking demo. The absolutely is amazing... I hope the big game studio's are taking notice.

Singing Ring Tree



This is one of the coolest and eeriest sculptures I have ever seen. Take a look and listen. I'd love to have one of these on the hill behind my house.

Drum Machine

Speaking of music games. Have you seen this? It’s pretty cool… You can use your Rock Band drum set attached to your PC as an actual electronic drum set. You see Wook Jr. wants to have a drum set. He is going through the stage where he wants to play just about everything. I fully support this… but, in general I like my quiet time. With that said this will be the perfect solution. Merry X-Mas little Wook, now drag the Rock Band kit downstairs and drum your little heart out. Nice work! Check it out: HERE

Guitar Rising...

I would like you, the reader, to note that I am a huge game fan. I have been a loyal gamer since back in the days of pong and the like. Watching this industry grow and flourish has been a pleasure to watch. With that said I’d like to announce I am a hardcore fan of any game that involves music. The Guitar Hero trilogy and Rock Band being the most recent and some of the best. However, this game/simulator has me seriously intrigued. This one looks like it has the potential to actually teach me how to play the guitar. A childhood dream of mine… Check out the video and keep your eyes peeled for the drop date.

anyone tried it?

Has anyone tried Mucinex? You know that one with the advertisements that shows this giant chunk of snot walking and talking. I get the ad and what it the product is claiming to do. I just don't know how it all goes down. Do you take this pill and next thing you know you hack up a giant phlem nugget and then you're golden? I'd like to try it but my fear is that I am gonna end up blowing and o-ring when I cash out. If anyone out there is in the know or has tried this product... let me know in the comments. BONUS for video posts.

Getting sick sucks! I have not been sick in many years. All of a sudden two days ago I wake up with a horrible throat pain. I could barely swallow. I remember back in the day staying home from school, work or whatever else was a treat. Now a days it just sucks. Sure, I can play some extra COD 4 (lvl'd 3 times)and otherwise relax. However, daytime TV is just lame. Not that this is by any means a new thing. Out of the billion or so channels I "pay" for, why is it I couldn't find anything to watch? Even Cartoon Network blows during the day. Unfortunately, due to the writers strike my normally full DDR device is completely empty. Being completely caught up on my recorded media is an occurrence that doesn't happen very often.

Battle!!!



This is some of the coolest live action animal footage I have ever seen! Water Buffalo and Lions duke it out. Not what you expect. CROCODILE! It's fairly gruesome but if you hang in there you will be rewarded. Listen carefully to the people watching this happen in front of them.

What an exciting minute. The last minute of the Super Bowl was exciting as any other minute that I can remember. After slaving through a few hours of an otherwise boring game and frustratingly small beers. The chips were all but gone, Teriyaki burgers... consumed. Drifting in and out of the desire to take a nap. With one minute to go the biggest game of the year became interesting. Then it was over and I am left with only September to look forward to.

COD 4


Call Of Duty 4, what can I say. I have this innate addiction to killing online foes. When the Wook gets off from a long day at the office, I like to kill. Online play is with out a doubt the best. Sure there are a few things that could be better. A Bowcaster would be a nice addition. A Kashyyyk map would be a bonus. I can look past those things and love the game as it is. The problem at this moment is that Wook Jr. is on it right now... [/sigh]

A couple of beers...


A couple of beers is all a Wook wants. Every time, I get the Wook a beer the wife looks at me funny. Lately the Wook has put on a few pounds. Nothing obscene... just a few extra pounds... [/cough] here and there. No where more than 15 pounds in total. On a Wookiees huge frame that is hardly noticeable. I guess the wife can tell. >.< Oh and BTW, Corona is piss at any price. Stick to the good stuff. Sometimes Wookiees crave a sub-par beer.

Super Bowl XLII

Not much of a Giants or Patriots fan. As a matter of fact, I quite dislike the Giants. There is not much, I do like in New York. Beautiful city and I admit it's much better than it was in the 80's. Just too much concrete, not near enough foliage for me. I have been there a few times and Wook didn't like it for more than 3 days at a time. I feel the same way about Vegas. I don't mind goin there... But, after 36 hours I need to get out.

Patriots on the other hand. Don't get me wrong they have had an amazing season. But I remember back in the days of less grey hair, that team sucked. They had one good season... got to the Super Bowl XX and then promptly got raped. Nobody liked them. I don't know one person that I like from Boston. Not one. The last guy I knew from Boston I called him Dooosh McDouchebag. He lived up to that name. With that said... many beers will be consumed by the Wook tomorrow.
How things can change. Siting here listening to Alpha... Saturdays are a gift.

Err...

Not sure about this step we are taking... Wookiees are a tough bunch to manage. I am on my second marriage and the Wookiee has had his moments. I love my wife (second) dearly and she has dealt with the Wookiee the best she can and I commend her. Wookiees are not exactly the cleanest of creatures. This Wookiee of mine is sometimes down right mean. Snarling teeth and bouts of primal rage. Nope Wook's are a task.
