Well, kids, my good buddy Rick who owns Cakelava in Hawaii, has asked me to be his assistant in a Food Network Cake Challenge. I'm going to do it. He's the main competitor......I'll just be the dork in the background, but that's good enough for me! I have to be all hushy hush about the details, but it will be a challenge that's right up my alley. I promise I'll tell ya all about it as soon as it's ok for me to do so...........
So go support your local merchant and buy a danish there, won't you?
So its a really crap day outside, but that shouldn't bring me down, just cause the weather is bad!
My day begins with ondemand Ugly betty, this always seems to make my day shine a little more.
Full of hilarium.I guess im also in a great mood because it's my weekend off!
So, I havn't touched my 360 in months, due to lack of decent games, till this anyway, I was curious about this ever since it came out, checked out some of the gameplay but still couldn't grasp the concept, so on impulse, I bought it.
I love the fact that an impulse buy end up being one of my best decisions!
This game so far is awesome! Custom Character customization, From facial to voice customization,
Full game decision making all the way down to what answer you give someone to a question.
It has all the elements an RPG should have, ROLE PLAYING, a lot of RPG makers miss that in their games.
I also love the fact that I get to choose what gender I am, it makes me feel a lot closer to my character when im a girl =). Very Diablo like in battle.
For any RPG fan its well worth picking up.
Also picked up some Xbox points so I could try out the new GTA ep. A title like that really draws curiosity!
That and I've become a bit of an achievement whore. I never used to understand the concept of getting achievements, but then I realized that when the game is over the points still remain =), its a little something you always get to keep.
Im going to be super lazy today!!!!!

Such a nice night for mid-November at the 400 Bar. Athletes in Slacks (myspace) warmed up the crowd with their laidback loungey harmonizing sound that only two keyboarders and a guitarist can produce. The band claims all their songs are about love, except later on their hour-long set, they introduced a song about hating two guys from New York. They did finish strong with a cover of INXS's "Never Tear Us Apart", and that's what really matter.
The first time I heard about Swedish band Little Dragon, was in January. Ceji was really into them. Since we generally like Swedish bands here, I did try and keep up with their whereabouts. As it turns out, they're in the middle of their tour through the US to promote their sophomore album, Machine Dreams. Although the band's been here already, they confessed last night that this was their first time in Minneapolis.
They didn't do Ceji's favorite "Recommendation" song, but I though hands-down their best song played was "After The Rain", complete with an amazing ending.
From what I heard from their live set, their new songs seems to drifts from the R&B and Jazz influence to more electro and beats. I think the combination works well for them, especially since I like their big beats/electronica sound.

I've been to a lot of shows lately, and I can tell you that this was one of the best shows yet. They're heading their way to the East Coast, so definitely check them out. If they're not heading through your city, you should check out Machine Dreams, out now on Peacefrog Records.

An honourable mention also has to go to Jamie Hutchings. I'm sure he's being playing shows in some form or another since before the dawn of time. Always enjoyable.... and, it seems, about to embark on a tour of europe, so if you're over that way, be sure to keep your eyes and ears peeled. Or maybe just look at his website for tour dates (might be easier).
