Summer is creeping closer as the days go by, and I can't wait. With summer comes a host of new games to replace those from earlier this year (yes, my gaming ADD is in full swing, of course). On the watch is are InFamous, Fat Princess, and now Batman: Arkham Asylum. The latter I wasn't following all that close, but came across the video below which is simply awesome. I loved the whole Thief series, all the sneaky Tom Clancy games, and most recently Assassin's Creed. Any game where you are supposed to be tactical, delibrate, and sneaky I find soooo much fun.

Lady...the fence is there for a reason!

It never ceases to amaze me how people can think that animals behind fences and moats are somehow safe to frolic with.   I mean, seriously...what did you think was going to happen?  It was going to roll over and let you pet its belly???

This has to be one of the most significant cases of "Don't Judge A Book By It's Cover" I've stumbled across in a loooong time. Check it out (sorry, but embedding was disabled). I was as stunned as the judges were...and the idea that two of the biggest pricks on television went dreamy just proves the quotes above.  Two    waaaay up!

Well, it's now the end of the first weekend of ownership for my new car, and I'm cautiously optimistic for the drive into work tomorrow.  I've tooled around the neighborhood a little, but did more laps than I care to count in the parking lot of the local high school.  First gear is still a litle tricky, but I'd say I'm 95% first attempts now, so I'm comfortable with that.  I'm still trying to get that sweet spot between RPMs vs.

Finally, after all the deliberation and debate, the new car is mine. 

Pictures to come at some point over the weekend, but took a spin through the neighborhood and around the parking lot of the high school, and already have a good feel for the clutch into first gear.  My anxiety level has bottomed out finally, and I can't wait till driving it becomes second nature.
