After a recent Silent hill title, I begin a rant on the moral/immoral choice feature in gaming.

Hope you enjoy. Please, comment, let me know what you think of this feature. Thank you.

Browsing through Netflix the other day, as I usually do after a hard day of taking the train (seriously, I could spend upwards of 3 hours on a bad day going to and from work). I came across a program within my instant queue that was being taken off on 5/15/2012. Most of the time I say "Eh, fuck it." and move on. Something is always being taken down and something is always going up. Maybe it was my mood, maybe it was the terrible raviolis I was eating (my landlord, sweet as she is, must have been baking banana bread when she made them...there wasn't enough American cheese to smother out the taste, and I tried!), but I needed to see this. What was it?

The episode was "Touch of Satan", just the title alone made me start thinking of the possible riffs. It was one of the later episodes, about 1998, after Sci-Fi picked it up and after Trace Beaulieu left. Many people I knew stopped watching at this point believing that it wasn't going to be as funny as before (the same thing people said when Joel Hodgeson left to do the TV Wheel or whatever shit it was that got canceled due to no one caring), but I loved it. I thought that the quality never compromised.

The figure looks really good. Two...

I always love figures that come with swords and can pose with them. And lastly...

I've got a thing about toys that can emulate the look of them flying. So, yeah, if I get the funds, I'm getting Red Hawk. And here's hoping the rest of the Jetman team get a general release.

To anyone else interested, here's the other photos:

Update: Red Hawk coming to the US. I now give the reigns to Senior Excitement Correspondent Daniel Bryan.

Hey everyone, Patricia here. Sorry that we haven't been posting anything in a while, but Kevin and I are hard at work for the upcoming summer tribute. Ordinarily, posts would be put up at least once a week for any updates for any projects, but there's really not much to say. I would probably be boring you guys with discussions about the amount of hours Kevin and I did watching cartoons, movies, teen shows, and game shows. Not to mention the days that it took to research and read articles from old newspapers, blog posts, and magazines about the show's debut and reviews. Trust me, you're not missing out. 

Plus, we're living our daily routines as well. Kevin has work and my sister has finally graduated from college with a B.S. in Psychology, so I haven't been on the computer as much. Plus, I have an upcoming job interview, so I'm really looking forward to that. The good news is that there's only one more month to go until everything that we've put our energy and time on for many months will be shared with the world! 

Here's how it's going to go.

This is some bull$%*# right here.

Okay, given the fact that I live in Wisconsin I'm not directly affected by Amendment 1. And since I don't really follow the news as much as I used to, so I don't really know how much this was about state's rights and/or bigotry against homosexuals. But let's be honest, this is crap.

Preserving traditional marriage? Guys, traditional anything hasn't been culturally significant in this country since God knows when. We cannot just go back to "tradition". We have to move forward.

People, I say this as a confirmed Catholic.  We need to progress further towards a future with more tolerance and acceptance. WE, as a country, must move on.

During the last few days, I have become a wreck. Everything was thrown off. I could barely function. Stuff got done, but I could barely think and basically went on auto pilot. I rested when I could, but I needed to work. Early weekend meetings, editing a project for Bunny, writing my own stuff...by Monday night, I was too tired to be angry. If someone came into the room and beat me to death, I'd be annoyed, probably inconvenienced, but I would have just forgiven them and hoped that I could finish Game of Thrones wherever I went.

Then, I got my wish. No, I wasn't beaten to death. You people aren't that fucking lucky. I went to bed. The next day, I woke, did what I needed to do, and slept again. Know what I realized? I love sleep. Not just when I'm tired either. Like, I want to make it my fucking hobby.  Right now, I'm pretty well rested, but if I got a chance to go back to bed I would take it.
