Portland #6 on the list of Fittest Cities in America. Seattle is #1.

Everyone I know needs to pool their money together and get this for me. Please! Nothing says you care like 102" of Plasma Screen. This is the worlds largest plasma screen made by samsung and debuted at the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas this week. Prices have not been revealed but rumor has it at around $1000.00 per inch and it will not be available for about a year. So start saving now, just think of it as my christmas/birthday present.

Turned 28 on Thursday, and I can't believe it, but for the first time I felt old. Oh well, that is the way it goes. Stayed up for new years' this year, but felt kind of down with all the shit going on in the world, it is difficult to get excited for another year of "THIS". The Earthquake/Tsunami absolutely blows my mind, I can't stop watching the shit on CNN and the internet. It is beyond all nightmares anyone could ever have thought up. I read today that, if a similar event happened of the Oregon coast where the two plates meet like 20 miles west of where I live, there would be no time for evacuation, at all. And after seeing the total devastation that it can cause, it really makes you think.
I gotta say I feel like hell, I started to feel like crap late last night, and it is worsening by the hour. I should be sleeping to get over this shit in my head and nose, cause I work very early in the morning. But I am not. I have been playing some online Halo 2 with my new wireless headset, love wireless. I also just finished the movie "Hero" with Jet Li, it was fantastic. A truly beautiful film in every sense of the word. I thoroughly enjoyed the use of color to display emotion, and the dialogue was quite good, even translated. Fight scenes were tremendous, especially the two women fighting in the leaves. Enlighten yourself and rent it.

Oh and by the way, HAPPY NEW YEAR to all.

Quoted from NIN.com...
"With Teeth is finished.
The band is rehearsing.
I can't wait to present this music to you.
On your stereo and in your town.
Happy New Year.

Hell Yeah!

This is a pretty interesting "what if" documentary style video. What if google, and amazon joined forces, and put the print media out of business. Check it out.

Here is a merry christmas for ya. We were notified on christmas eve, no less, that a credit card check on my american express card was cashed for $3000.00. I did not write the check, and as you can imagine, was just a little concerned about this. After speaking with the police in Seaside, it turns out that myself, my wife, and 400-500 other people, and the list is still growing, are victims of mail/identity theft. They arrested the people last week, and are in the process of obtaining warrents to seize a couple of storage units as well as a vehicle used by these individuals. It seems that they have stolen specific mail, anything with financial info, checks, etc., from mailboxes throughout Clatsop and Columbia County. The officer said that they have recovered around 50 garbage sacks full of mail, and expect to find more in the storage units. They seized a laptop that the people were using to get personal info from a legitimate website. For $20 dollars they were able to get social security numbers, last addresses, employment info, etc., obtained from public records. I don't know about you, but that scares the hell out of me. I will be going to find a locking mailbox, since the waiting list for a post office box is 1 year. Don't let them get you, lock your shit up and protect your Credit. This (1-800-525-6285) is a number you can call to put a fraud alert on your credit report if you suspect fraud. Basically what it does is makes it so that if a credit application, any large purchases, or anything out of the ordinary happens on your credit they will call you to verify before putting it on your credit report. Equifax will link to the other 3 credit reporting agencies so that you are protected no matter where this happens. I hope those bastards burn!

Have I mentioned how god damned funn Red vs. Blue is? Check out the christmas episode. I love smoal!

It is about time Batman started kicking some ass, the last few movies were terrible, this looks much darker, and more to the original.
