overwhelmed valid lolly! confirmation us now

That is a quote from one of our more prolific commenters. Please ignore the spambots, I left my can-opener somewhere inaccessible.

The Twilighter Zone does not endorse any of these link spammers, disregard their attempts to convince you to have a lolly good time confirming them at sea.

Also, you should be ashamed of yourself if you haven't heard of Penny Arcade. I went to PAX (twice), their expo, and it was the awesomes. Here is their link again: Penny Arcade

Read their material, witness it. Avail yourself of the mind-chocolate it contains.

Beware the mist.

Do it

Ahem...

So, I kinda forgot about this blog. I mean, I knew I had it, at some point, but didn't think about it until now. I thought "I wish I had a blog...". And so I do.

A lot has happened since I started this thing, so just to keep my dignity, I will state that this blog was started before I even heard of that "Twilight" crap. It might have even been before the books came out, but it was at least long before the movies.

The name was inspired by "The Twilight Zone". It's an old tv show, most kids these days would probably think vampires first (however I haven't seen the show as it ran decades before I was born).

Anyway, recommendation here, http://soundcloud.com/alainjohannes/sets/spark.

That's the first solo album by Alain Johannes, touring guitarist of Them Crooked Vultures, and creative member of so many other projects. Listen free. Buy on the 5th if you like. Whatever.

I've only seen probably 5 new movies or so since I last posted here. I liked Inception. And Kick-Ass. And Shutter Island. In that order. Well, I liked Inception the best.

Halo: Reach is awesome (!!), but would be more awesome if I could play it online. Internet situation prevents me.

Also, I have to wake up today. I should sleep.

Happy Late New Year

Really late. Speaking of which, I should go to bed. Just thought I'd post. Also, Mass Effect 2 is amazing, I'm playing the first one again, and I bought the soundtrack from the first. $9.99 gets you all 37 songs. Not shabby. What are the origins of that word, shabby? Shab? Does it mean shab-like? I'll let you chew on it.

Broken Record... Best Record

Here I am saying it again... Them Crooked Vultures is the best band alongside Foo Fighters. I'm listening to the album as we type/read for free on their website. Hit the link under my oh so cleverly titled blog title. Apologies to any readers I may have had for forcing you to do nothing but follow my gamerscore progression for a couple months. This music will make it up. Even if I took your cookie it would make it up. Here, take it: Them Crooked Vultures.

Long time no type

Well, here's another post. I have to spread the word about the ridiculousness of someone getting arrested for not using Twitter. Yep. Here's the link: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-10403864-71.html?tag=mncol;posts
And, some dude married a video game character. I had to pause and think about that one for a while after i typed it. Umm... here's the link: http://news.cnet.com/8301-10797_3-10404956-235.html
Aaand, people think games have too many war crimes. Link: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13506_3-10404450-17.html
What's next? PETA wants to ban Mario games because you step on turtles?

Yeah, I know they're all from the same site, but from what I can tell, it's a good site.
But seriously, you've got wars, famine, natural disasters, the highest unemployment in 26 years, and then... this. NOW, I know the world is ending. Not when 9/11 happened, not when the recession hit, but NOW. This is off the charts of stupidity. People are so stupid. You may know a stupid person; nay, you may even be one. It's a simple fix. The cure... just don't be stupid. I used to be stupid, but then I stopped. Right around the time I started this blog, in fact... almost 3 years ago. I kicked the stupid habit! See, when you're stupid, you don't know. You gotta have someone tell you. So here you go, I'm saving your life. YOU MAY BE STUPID. IF YOU ARE, DON'T BE.

Now that all that's out of the way, it's music recommendation time. Here are some of the best albums of all time:
There Is Nothing Left To Lose - Foo Fighters
Songs For The Deaf - Queens of the Stone Age
Them Crooked Vultures - Them Crooked Vultures

Now all of these have one thing in common; can you guess? Whoever does wins a bunch of web points (and by bunch I mean bunch).

Go!

I have a theory...

That Microsoft sucks at making consoles that don't break.
