Awesome footage shot during a recent rubgy competition in the Stade de France, Paris. The jello shot is amazing.

Happy Easter everyone

Happy New Year

Robert — Thu, 01 Jan 2009 03:46:58 +0000

So we’re minutes away from 2008. I’m getting ready to celebrate myself but I wanted to wish everyone a happy new year! Let’s see what we can do with 2009.

Winter’s here

Robert — Sat, 20 Dec 2008 18:58:44 +0000

There is little doubt now that the season of Winter is officially here, if not in name definitely in spirit. I’m not a big fan of this season — only because of the weather. The holiday time is magic for me.

Right now I can’t see more than 20 feet out my window. I made sure to hit the store yesterday to pick up the previsions as it seems I’ll be snowed in for the better part of the weekend.

Dad’s in Morris right now, just came out of surgery and seems to be doing well. He did a smart thing and broke his leg last week. Another reason I’m not fond of this forsaken weather. Those who enjoy their “snow machines” or whatever, I just don’t get it. Give me a little warmth this time of year and I’m a happy camper.

At any rate, this weekend is proving a good opportunity to watch some DVDs and listen to some music without worrying about going out and about. Good times.

Things I’ve been doing instead of blogging

Robert — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 01:31:55 +0000

Instead of just pointing out that I’ve been bad at blogging (please don’t search and find out how many times I’ve done that), I figured I would post what I’ve been up to instead of writing personal musings and such.

Reading the Watchmen graphic novel
Working like a mad dog
Watching more then a few mini-series on DVD
Playing video games like Dead Space
Listening to a lot of music

I’m not saying that I’m going to be blogging a whole lot any time soon, but whenever the mood strikes, this will be the place I blab about things.

Remember, vote on November 4th if you live in the U.S., make up your own mind on who — but please vote!

Tina Fey as Sarah Palin

Tina Fey was amazing on Saturday Night Live. No matter who you’re going to vote for, this was the best impression ever done on SNL.

As the vacation ends

Robert — Sun, 17 Aug 2008 19:36:51 +0000

For the last week I have pretty much done nothing in particular. From catching up on DVDs to watching the Olympics, I finally got around to spending a week of doing very little.

To say that I haven’t done anything really isn’t accurate. Here is a short list of things I did do this week in no particular order.

Saw “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” in the theater. Great flick but a few flaws here and there. If you dig Star Wars, you’ll probably dig this Star Wars flick. More on this later.
Started playing BioShock after picking it up new for $20 on clearance. I’ve been wanting to play this game for a while and it really does hold up. Shaping to be one of my favorite 360 games.
Watched a boat load of DVDs. From most the first season of “Felicity” to “Superman II” and so on, I made my way through a number of DVD discs.
Slept, a pretty good amount. I think I’ll do some more of that here in a few minutes.
Pre-ordered the special edition of the new Oasis album, “Dig Out Your Soul” out in early October. Joy.

That’s the short list of what I’ve done. Congrats to Michael Phelps, amazing job man.

I used to be a doctor for pretend

Happy Fourth of July

Robert — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 03:30:56 +0000

Just wanted to wish all my fellow Americans a Happy Fourth of July. Just finished watching some fireworks out of Boston, nothing like celebrating our country’s independence with big explosions.
