Here’s some good news for you, Steam has Skyrim on sale this weekend for 33% off or $40.19! I think that’s the lowest I’ve ever seen it. I have the PS3 version but I’m getting rid of it as I bought it on launch day and really couldn’t play it up until the last patch which was how many months after it was released. It’s ridiculous that I had to wait several months to actually play a game?! I will not be buying games on launch day anymore that’s for sure. I’m sick of companies making their customers pay to be beta testers. Anyway, that’s my little rant for the day so go and read the news…

The news just keeps flowing and flowing, so I’ve got more for you and I only hope that the since I post the news for others they post the news for us. It would be nice wouldn’t it? I don’t know I guess I have to look into it some more but there’s plenty of news and reviews for you to read right now. A couple days I’ll post some more, I really have to get into a schedule for these things, then I have to get another review done and hopefully another after that on another site. I’ve just got too much going on right now….

Ok, so you may have noticed the lack of posting, well it’s been a rough couple months but I think it’s over now. We had a couple deaths in the family and I had some annoying legal stuff to contend with but I think it’s over, for now anyway and it’s back to business as usual. It’s Friday and I’m sure everyone is happy about that so while you’re enjoying your morning coffee as I am, you can sit back and read some news from our friends from around the world.

News for April 28th 2012–It’s Cold Outside!

Kristofer Brozio — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 14:14:43 +0000

It’s a couple days until May and I woke up to a temperature of 35F this morning, it’s now 38F and only going up to 47F, which is cold for this time of the year. I always thought that plants don’t like the cold but I’ve got to go and pull weeds as they seem to be impervious to it as they seem to be thriving very well. It was below freezing several times last week and they’re still growing sadly. So it’s Saturday and we’ve got a bunch of news for you, lots of SSDs in here this time.

News for Saturday April 21st 2012–HOAs are Horrible!

Kristofer Brozio — Sat, 21 Apr 2012 12:58:09 +0000

So apparently our little city or town where we live is now like an HOA (Home Owners Association), except it’s worse I think. Got a registered letter yesterday saying that they changed the laws and our property is now in violation of many of them and we have to fix it all within 30 days or face fines of $1,000 per day and 30 days in jail per day if it’s not fixed. The best part is that the letter doesn’t tell you what’s wrong, it just lists the laws so we don’t know what exactly is wrong which means we don’t know what needs fixed?! They also never told anyone they were changing the laws either. Isn’t government great?! I work from home and I’m here most of the time and I never saw anyone here to inspect anything so I don’t know when or how they found any of these problems. Apparently though it’s not just us as the mailman said he’s delivered hundreds of these over the last couple days and he has more to do. I just find it amazing that I could now go to jail because I didn’t paint the trim around my windows!?!?! Picture the situation, you’re in jail with murderers and thieves and rapists and they ask you what you’re in for and you tell them it’s because you didn’t paint the trim around your windows?! There’s something seriously wrong with all of this…

Kristofer Brozio — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 14:44:40 +0000

Yeah it’s been a rough last few days for me. I’m back now though. We had a long holiday weekend with the kids off so it was hard to get anything done, but in the process I totally messed up my computer to the point it wouldn’t boot anymore no matter what I tried. I ended up re-imaging my drives from my weekly backup that I do every Sunday and it was Saturday so I lost all of the work from Sunday to Saturday that I did, hundreds of pictures are gone. Not fun at all. I thought I was protected by running a backup every week, but I didn’t think about what would happen if something like this happened six days after my backup. Anyway I need to get some work done, or re-do a lot of work so for now read the news…

I thought it was finally getting warm here, I guess I thought wrong. It was 80F on Saturday then on Monday it dropped to 26F, goofy weather we got going on and going down to 31F tonight. I was ready to turn the air conditioner on, but instead I’m turning the furnace back on. Anyway, we got more reviews coming for you of course, but for now red the news from our friends.

News for March 17th 2012- Happy St Patty’s Day!

Kristofer Brozio — Sat, 17 Mar 2012 20:16:50 +0000

So it’s getting hot here finally, well I guess not finally, but unexpectedly. I was expecting one last snow storm here, but I guess not as it’s 74F right now and late this week it’s going to hit 80F. I have a thermometer I keep on my desk for testing to get the ambient room temperature and it says it’s 79F where I’m sitting. Blah, it’s Saturday and I just don’t really feel like doing much of anything. I want to just sit and veg out, watch TV, maybe catch up on playing some games. I got Uncharted 3 a few weeks ago and I’ve still not even put the Uncharted 2 disc in my PS3! I haven’t even completed Uncharted 1 yet actually. I also have the Uncharted for the PS Vita that I’m going to review but it doesn’t feel right playing it as I’ve never played the others in the series. I’m the type of person that has to finish a game and/or play the other games in a series before going on. Honestly I’d rather just take a nap, but I’ve got my youngest son here with me so that’s not going to happen…. Oh well, Happy St Patrick’s Day and here’s the news…
