Well the new mini iPods suck. 1/4 the space for only $50 less, total rip off
Thursday I played in the screensavers LAN party, Halo. Had time for 2 games, I finished 6th in the first game, then 7th in the second. Not too bad considering it was a 16 person free-for-all. Later that night I went out and played a couple games of pool, lost 3 games to 2.
That’s about it, nothing has been going on lately.
Well tonight my friend called me a couple hours before the Blues game tonight and we decided to go, since it was buy one get one free night. His brother also came. When we got there there was only $45 seats left, so we got those and they were all half off so we got three tickets for like $67 bucks. The seats were almost directly behind the net where the Blues shot twice and about 5 rows from the top of the lower bowl. They played the Wild and we tied 1-1. We really could have used the extra point because the Red Wings won 6-0 tonight. The Blues are, I think, 6 pts behind Detroit with 5 games at hand.
Well, nobody got wasted so that was good. We mainly just hung out, played some Halo, went to eat at a all you can eat pizza place. I got home around 2:30 on Thursday and if I had gotten home about 15 minutes earlier I would have known some of my friends were out playing hockey, oh well. That night I went to the Blues game, we won 5-4, I had 12th row seats on the Blues shoot twice side. We almost lost the game, but held on for the win.
Friday, I went bowling for the first time in years. I bowled a 118 and I think a 149, or something like that. One of the guys had some free passes, so I only had to pay for shoe rental.
Today, I did nothing but watch football. Both teams that I picked won, Carolina and Tennessee. Speaking of picks I won my little Maxim Pool against Jeff and Steve. Currently I am #29 overall in the Point’s picks thing. Which ain’t too bad considering there are probably a few thousand in it. I also do picks on DeviantArt’s forums, but the guy who does it hasn’t posted in a few weeks so I don’t know the current stats. Both the Point’s and DeviantArt’s one’s are picking for the playoffs.
Well I am going over to my friends apartment and get to watch everyone else get plastered because I don’t drink. Oh joy babysitting drunks. I will be back around 1 on New Years and then I am going to the Blues game. We got $85 seats for $30 because of the student deal and we are in the 12th row. Also it’s on the shoot twice side and since they are playing the amazingly bad Rangers we had better win.
Pollstar has put together a list of the top grossing concerts of 2003. Bruce Springsteen & The E. St. Band was the number one show at 115.9 million dollars. The “Summer Sanitarium Tour” / Metallica came in at #10 at 48.8 million dollars. For a full list go here.
Well my last post I decided to try out w.bloggar to update my blog. It works really well, it’s nice not having to type out all of the html code. It’s completely free and works with Blogger, b2, MovableType, Nucleus, BigBlogTool, BlogWorks XML, Blogalia, Drupal, Xoops, E-Xoops, Upsaid, PostNuke, TheBlog, Blog-City, Blogjsom, Roller Weblogger, Domino, LiveJournal, EraBlog.NET, pMachine, TypePad and YACS blogs. I have only tried it on Movabletype, because that’s what I use, but it works flawlessly. Spellcheck also a big plus, because I can’t spell worth shit.
