Kinda knew I'd wind up going there
eventually...

That Old Feeling
You know the one, where you know
something won't end well, but you've gotta do it anyway.

VLOG: Birthday Project trailer
Just a little something I hope to have at least written in time for my birthday next week.
From The Old Floppies: Issue #17: Game Review of "The Three Stooges" video game for I-Mockery
It's been awhile since I've done one of these, and I've been meaning to get around to it since then.
In this case, what we've got here is a video game review I wrote for a website called I-Mockery. It's one of those sites that's been around for awhile in one form or another. They've got some cool stuff there. Amongst my favorites are the Pixel Pals sprite comic and an article about a failed Disney resort in the Caribbean. Back in the day, they used to take user-submitted video game reviews, and I had an account there with which I did exactly that maybe a half dozen times. Just my luck, in an effort to come up with a cheap and somewhat lazy post for tonight, I came across a final draft of one of those reviews. Interestingly enough, it's the one for the Three Stooges NES game that came out in the late 1980s or early 90s, which I mention in my video review of the recent movie of the same name by the Farley Brothers.
Now, what I'm posting here is just the plain text version I wrote without the supplemental in-game images that I submitted alongside the review. Those can be found on the review page hosted by I-Mockery, along with additional info I couldn't find because I didn't know then and haven't had the inclination to find out in the eight years since then.
So, here we go, folks. Check it out below the jump!

Murphy's Law
It's still in full effect, it seems...

all the same.

A Bit Bored...
Might as well make a little something of it, anyway, I guess.

So, 375 Posts, Huh?
OK, it's kind of a strange number to be
doing this, and it's not much of a milestone, all things considered.

More Than I Thought...
I've got quite a bit of junk paper
around my work desk.
New Tires
It's about time I got around to getting
new tires on my car.
Finally...
Things may actually be going my way
again.
Summer Schedule 2012
If I keep getting the same hours I've
been getting at my day job the last three weeks, here's how things
might look going forward this summer.

TEXT PLAY: Legend of Mana (PlayStation; 2000): Issue #17: A More Normal Course
With the first Elazul quest out of the
way, I'm on a more normal course for the way I usually play this
game. Things could get a bit interesting here, folks.

Where To Begin...?
Well, maybe more how to
begin, because I already know the “where” part, from several
angles...

Not Feeling So Swell
I've not been feeling so great lately,
and I've fallen behind on several projects as a result.
