Random Drew-ings

I bought a Gamebridge video capture device off of Woot last week for $25.  Bargain!  I tested it out on Robotron.  I plugged in the component cables into the Gamebridge (or is composite cables?  It was the lo def red yellow white cables.)  The Gamebridge then connected my laptop via USB.   The video feed was then shown in a window on my laptop.  It was difficult to play on the small window so I will need to invest in a splitter in order to display it on my TV at the same time.  It records into MPEG format which is kind of a older codec.  In order to decrease the file size, I converted the file into WMV.  I tried uploading the video onto the site but either it didn't upload correctly or doodi has yet to approve it.  Here is a youtube link to the video, just in case:

Major Nelson posted up a story today that Burger King was developing some games for the 360.  “Pocketbike Racer,” “Big Bumpin’,” and “Sneak King” will be sold at Burger King restaurants starting November 19th for $4 with a value meal.  At first glance, it doesn't sound that exciting, but then I got a gander at this screenshot:

Ya think he's going to show her his Whopper?

Later this week, I will be packing up my family and driving the mini-van up to my home town, Lexington, Ky.  My Grandparents still live there and they haven't seen Connor the Brave in about 8 months.  They are pretty excited to visit with their only great grandchild.  I looking forward to visiting a few old haunts.  We will be going to horse races at Keeneland one afternoon.  And hopefully one night somebody will babysit for us and wifey-poo and I can go to Marrika's Bier Stube; 180 different types of beer and usually the owners will come out and play foosball with us.  I was a foosball god in college.  It will be a 13 hour drive up to Kentucky, so wish me luck with that.
