And then.....?

Classic excerpt from the dumb and funny film 'Dude Where's My Car?' starring Ashton Kutcher.

It's basically him and his mate at a Chinese fast food joint at the drive in - ordering food through the PA system.

Chinese Lady : And theeeeeeeeeeeen? (in awesome 50 year old Chinese mum accent)
Ashton Kutcher : I refuse to play your Chinese food mind games!

See the clip here.

And then.....Facebook is evil and it wastes alot of time. Don't join! I knew I shouldn't have given in to all those invitations from friends to join.

And then....Transformers trailer looks awesome...only a few months to go.

And then....is this the start of QLD domination for a few years in State of Origin?

And then....4 player Madden on Nintendo Wii rocks.

And then.....that's all.....and then.

Finally....the wait is nearly over

Yes....huge news.....after nearly 9 years....

Blizzard Entertainment has announced the upcoming release of Starcraft 2!! Whilst the date has not yet been announced, the project is already far into its development.

I still remember the days back in high school, in year 11 and 12 when half the grade would sneak out to 'PC Bungs' (some korean word for netcafe) and spend afternoons playing 8 player multiplayer Starcraft. Oh it was so nerdy - there'd be like five 8-player games going on simultaneously. After a few hours, we'd emerge, sore eyed, a little tired and with a few dollars less in our pockets - but satisfied (or maybe not) at our successful Zergling rush.

Check out the website here....awesome.

I sense some serious time wasting coming up when it gets released...damn...looks like the Wii will continue to be ignored.

The nerd in me has been unleashed...

I also found it pretty interesting reading through the Starcraft entry on Wikipedia. In particular, about Starcraft in South Korea. Basically, if someone is damn good at Starcraft they are a celebrity in South Korea....that is so funny! Check out the entry in Wikipedia on this particular guy, his name is Lim Yo-Hwan (no he's not related to me). He has his own DVD's containing his greatest games (hahaha) and he has a fan club of more than 600,000! They even have TV channels over there in South Korea showing games, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week...!

Silverchair

Went to watch Silverchair on Wednesday night with Grace, Brian and Nat at the Enmore Theatre. They played alot of songs and displayed good musicianship and showmanship. I guess the only dissapointing thing was the lack of old material, in particular no songs from Frogstomp (i.e. no 'Tomorrow', 'Pure Massacre' or 'Israel's Son' - what the?). I think there were 2 songs from Freak Show and 2 from Diorama. They nearly played the whole 'Young Modern' album.

This was a good thing for the new fans and I guess alot of old fans (like myself) would appreciate their musical maturity as their career plods along.

Apart from that concert, work has been good. Having just completed my 6th week, I'm starting to put in some late nights at the office (my honeymoon period is over). Keep those cabcharge dockets rolling in! The work 'convention' up at Noosa last week was good too. Heaps tiring and pretty pointless (in terms of work) but it was basically compulsory so I had to go. Not that I'm complaining! Had good fun, met alot of people and took as much advantage of the free food/grog/facilities/luxuries that were available. The only downside was that I missed a friend's birthday, the launch of REEF and the AYC meeting on Sunday - three events that I really wanted to be at.

AYC is moving along and RICE is quickly gaining momentum. The busyness of recent weeks is weighing me down but the motivation behind both of these events is keeping me going. However, personal QT is definitely taking a battering. Need to find a way to simply do it!

Weekly indoor soccer has been organised so hopefully that'll kick along! Come to think of it, I have two-three free nights a week (if there are no meetings or late nights at the office). I really miss those lazy, carefree days doing nothing.

Minutes spent playing Nintendo Wii this week : Zero....damn.
