I remember not so long ago getting off of work or waking up at 5 - 6pm on a Friday night and grabbing my guitar, getting together with the boys in the band and playing a club or a party and being kings of the night time world. Mind you back then things were simpler because I was younger and didn't care much about money or my future. All I wanted was to have fun. But that "fun" turned into drinking/drug addiction, a few "I think I might be pregnant" close calls and the loss of once great friends over such matters as girls, music and the lack of funds to continue the party.
Fifteen years later I find myself finally recovered from the fallout of those days. I have a good job, finally paid off all my debts, have a roof over my head (though I live in a studio apartment it beats sleeping on a strangers living room floor), I have a wonderful 8yr old son who tells me I'm the greatest dad in the world and tells me he loves me plus I even have my own car and a girlfriend. Yes, work could be better but all things considered I'm happy to be alive and lucky enough to have a family that loves me. True my ex can be "BFH" but not everything can be perfect.
But I still find myself wanting to visit those "glory days" every once in a while. If I only knew then what I know now, how different things could have been. Then I remember that if things hadn't worked out like they did, I might never have had the son I do now - and I've waited what feels like my whole life to meet him.
The question is: a chance to go back and redo the old glory days
or the love of a child?
I've made my choice, which would you choose???

From the rumor mill: "Metal Gear Solid 4 on the 360?"
Famed Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima fielded questions after an MGS4 presentation in Leipzig, Germany. The presentation included information on four new and interesting boss characters for the series plus a new game trailer featuring the characters.
But one of the more interesting questions from the crowd was about an MGS4 port coming to the Xbox 360. Producer Ken Imaizumi answered the question in English and stated there was no plan for a 360 version but paused and added "for now" at the end. Rumors are that Konami has a separate team working on the MGS4 port to be released sometime in late 2008 or early 2009.
This would be very cool for us 360 owners.. I played the first three games on the Playstation and though I regret playing the 2nd game in the series the others were some of the greatest games I have ever played. I enjoyed them mostly because I am a big stealth game fan but no matter what game genre fan you are MGS3 is one of the best game's you could ever play. From the game trailers I've seen, game 4 in the series looks to top all three games in one.
Too much hype you say??? maybe but when you see the game trailers I think you will agree. I hope the mill is true on this one... if so, all of us game geeks are in for a treat. Heck, I might finally take a vacation day to play this one! (note to self: five years or longer and still no vacation??? good thing you play video games for a release or you might have gone postal by now, dude!) - The Inner Voice: A Blessing or a Curse? a topic to look for in the future....
