Super Mario Galaxy | Beaten
The boy and I have done it. Together we have beaten the coolest game either of us have ever played (Guitar Hero is a very close second). After months of casual play we just beat Bowser (which, frankly, I thought was a bit easy in comparison to some of the levels that I freaking hated playing over, and over, and over to beat). Great game, amazing concept, awesome story; kudos to the Mario team. We had a blast playing it.

Panera Side Note | Google Porn?
Seems Flickr is blocked as inappropriate content by this Panera? I headed over to Picasa to see if I could get through and I could (except Google is using a sub-domain so it's possible that's why I can get though). I tried Playboy.com to see if that could get through; no such luck (not as if I ever go to Playboy.com - I'm not trying to be funny, I really don't - no, seriously, Christ). So, on the Google theory I tried porn.google.com; it's still loading so maybe I've stumbled onto a secret Google underground file sharing service? That would be cool. I wonder what SERPs show up for porn.google in Google? Lets look...
Woah, seems result #4 displays a result that's a little Google-Freaky-Diky. Now, I'm not much of a Google Groups kind of guy, but this is really way out of my league.
Anyway, glad to see that Panera is preventing pervs from looking at inappropriate sites out in the open, but Flickr... come-on.

TimeWarner Kills Me | or Panera Saved Me
Cable is out. So is Internet & Phone. Has been since yesterday AM. I called TimeWarner yesterday to multiple busy signals, one dropped call and a wait time I simply couldn't handle with the meetings I had. Weather was a little bad, so I figured someone in my hood would have called. Well, after OVER an hour on hold with them this AM turns out a tech has to come look. Seems "critters" like the low voltage and vibration and may be the cause of my issue. My isolated issue. No one else seems to be experiencing my issues. So when I'm told they can't get anyone out till TOMORROW from 11am - 2pm, I'm a little pissed. His response:
"well if you had called yesterday..."
"I DID call yesterday to busy signals and too long of a wait time..."
"I understand..."
Bullshit he understands, I'm the guy who's literally OUT. Odd thing is I just had them out to take my HD box and swap it with HD Cards for my HD Tivo. All my HD channels work great, but regular network looks like ass; apparently a strong indicator of an issue... no shit.
So due to the weather Panera isn't as busy as usual (so my wife tells me) and we are able to sit here and get some work done online without being that couple that people glare at taking up a table on their lunch hour. So thank you Panera.
And TimeWarner, I know shit happens. Animals chewing on my lines; it happens. Little faster response time on the phone would be nice. Little faster response time on fixing the problem (as in, SAME DAY) would also be nice. The rep I spoke with was friendly enough (bit if a dick at first but warmed up; actually, he got detailed-personal which weirded me out). Technology fails. It's the fixing part where you have the opportunity to shine.

Because you're not that guy
So my wife looks over to me and says "actually, you are that guy..."
We all watched the SuperBowl last night. Because of this stupid weight loss competition I couldn't enjoy bowls of chips, pretzels, dip, soda, beer (ok, I gave up beer a while ago, but I really wanted a Miller Light for some reason) and PIZZA ROLLS! Sober, hungry and TIVO in hand I rewound my share of SuperBowl ads. Breathing fire was funny. GoDaddy was alright (online spot). The one that hit a personal nerve was the Helzberg Diamond spot.
Let's back up a little. When the XMAS holiday was closing in on us Kansas City was littered with billboards for Helzberg. I was irritated then due to the message they were pushing. Helzberg was basically saying "...you are a sad, dumb-man, she knows it, you can't nor do you HAVE to do anything else but get her diamonds...from Helzberg..." That's a bit degrading. Don't get me wrong, I'm a selfish prick and I do pretty much what I want then ask for forgiveness later (have you see the Porsche blogs), but I also try and DO things that matter. I buy her gifts and jewelry, but not instead of the personal care and thoughtful smaller things.
"...because you're not that guy..."
Back to the SuperBowl ads. Now granted, I'm not going to wash the dog instead of watching the game with friends. Fine. I get that. The card aspect is another story. First wedding anniversary. We didn't have much our first year. Just got into our first house, had our first kid, things were tight, but I did want to do something special. Paper is year one. I went out and bought some very heavy paper stock. I also wrote (wait for it) a poem - not shit, I actually put down words from my heart. I then bought a carving block and tools to create a custom stamp for the cover (come-on, I got into college on a painting scholarship, cut me some slack). I then asked my mother (shut it), whom has the best penmanship, to transcribe the poem onto the inside. Lastly, I folded the piece and wax stamped a seal. I basically did exactly what Helzberg was suggesting I wouldn't do in a million years. The point? Just because I'm a selfish ass doesn't mean I don't care enough about my wife to do something special for her.
So my wife looks over at me and says "actually, you are that guy...and when you're not you buy me Tiffany's..."

New Leica in Basement
Posted by DrunkInLife at 10:23 PM 0 comments
Got My First Leica
I've been missing shooting lately; a lot. I used to shoot every day. I've been lazy and frankly not wanting to haul my 20D around everywhere I go (unless I'm out shooting specifically for the sake of shooting). We have a digital point and shoot, but it's a bit bulky for my liking. So I got a new toy... a Digital Leica D-LUX 3. The plan is to keep it in my pocket and shoot again everyday. I've also upgraded my Flickr account to PRO status to dump all the images. I'll be posting some of the shots I like best over here as well, so stay tuned.
