Compulsively refreshing and clicking at just the right time at 1:00AM EST yields me position 48 for Killzone 2 on @goozex? Curses! # Playing tonight on BluRay: Wanted. Ms. Jolie is hot but I wouldn’t be able to shake the feeling she’d chew through my carotid while I slept. # Powered by Twitter Tools.

Fact: Podunk Stomp (http://is.gd/kYXf-) is and will always be the most wonderful song ever conceived with a banjo in it. # Legalize pot for economic reasons? (http://tinyurl.com/arb6oe) What about Reefer Madness?! CRAZY TALK! (It’s well past time, btw.) # There are better things in life than beating the Buffalo Sabres, but they all occur without [...]

The continuing saga of “A Dance With Dragons”
Poor George R. R. Martin. Oddly enough I recently started re-reading his Song of Ice and Fire series of which A Dance With Dragons is the next book due.
