I beat Halo 2 last week, can't say I was all that impressed with the ending. I was all pumped up to play another mission...and then the credits started to roll. I'm still having a blast on multiplayer, but I was hoping for a longer single player game. All I have to say is Halo 3 better be a launch title for the next Xbox incarnation.
I watched this Sunday's Meet The Press, where Rev. Jerry Falwell said the following:
MR. RUSSERT: On "Desperate Housewives," Newsweek says that the creator of "Desperate Housewives" is a conservative, gay Republican.REV. SHARPTON: That's what I was going to say. Do you find that...
DR. FALWELL: Well, the fact that he's a gay Republican means he should join the Democratic Party.
So, does this mean that Falwell thinks that Ken Mehlman, newly appointed head of the Republican National Committee, should leave the party as well? He's apparently gay. Or is that okay, because he's willing to hide his sexual orientation while heading a party that denounces his fellow homosexuals? Which is it Jerry?
When Howard Dean talked about wanting to include "guys with Confederate flags on their pickup trucks" in the Democratic party he took a lot of heat. I don't hear any prominent Republicans denouncing what Falwell just said about homosexual members of his party. The silence is deafening.
Okay, I've had about enough of this cold. I'm at that stage where you feel miserable and have no energy, but you're not really sick enough to justify staying home from work, so you drag yourself in and get nothing done. Is it bedtime yet?
I'm back home after a Thanksgiving Day with my wife and the in-laws. A good time was had by all, except me, the wet blanket of the group with a nasty head-cold. I felt fine for most of the morning, then my drugs wore off, and I took an hour-long siesta on the couch after eating turkey. I'm home now, have popped some Nyquil, and am ready for a good night's rest. There's not much worth getting up early for tomorrow as I look over the tech ads. The best deals, to me, appear to be the $30 DVD burner and the $50 200GB hard drive at OfficeMax, as well as the $30 160GB hard drive at Best Buy. But I've never gotten anything at Best Buy on Black Friday, the line is too long. I've scored at OfficeMax before, and while I could use a fourth DVD burner (yes, really) I don't think I'm prepared to haul my sick butt out of bed to go get it tomorrow.
You heard it here folks, we must eat the turkeys in order to save them:
"When talking about certain animals being raised for food, if no one eats them then they become endangered," said Erika Lesser, executive director of Slow Food USA. "You ensure their survival by consuming and ensuring demands for them."
