Jump right into the water...of nerdiness!

It feels like forever since I have done a post here, however it's only been ten days. I guess that is because I have been busy with other nerd activities. I recently bought a copy of World Of Warcraft, which has been taking up some of my time. My hat goes off to the makers of that game because, damn, it's insanely intricate. A few weeks ago I also discovered Reddit which is one of my favorite websites at the moment. If you haven't checked it out, do so. Just make sure you have a few hours to kill, and look up subreddits. There is a subreddit for pretty much everything! The latest time taker has been a program called XBMC. It's a media center program that is leaps and bounds beyond what you have on your computer. In the simplest terms it lets you stream media (movies, tv shows, music, pictures) from websites or from your computer. For example if you use Hulu, there is a plugin that will create a list of everything you can watch on Hulu and organize it into a easy to sort list. That way you don't have to go to the site and click all over to get to what you want. Now imagine being able to do that with National Geographic.com or G4tv.com or whatever other site you like. It's pretty customizable, and best of all it's open source (meaning anyone can write code for it). Anyway, all that on top of putting in applications for jobs has kept me pretty busy. This is a song by Swedish indie pop group Suburban Kids With Biblical Names. It's a really great song about computers and music! Yay!

The other day I was cleaning my closet and I came across my comic books. I haven't looked at them for years, it was a fun trip down memory lane. I used to get this comic book magazine in the mail called Wizard. I think it's still around but the format has changed drastically from what I remembered it to be. Looking back I got a lot of cool magazines in the mail. I used to have a stack of Nintendo Power magazines from the early 90's. I was always super excited to get the mail, hoping the new issue was there. The pure jubilation seeing it there waiting for me to rip open the plastic bag, smell the fresh newsprint scent, taking my time leafing through the pages like it was something to be cherished. I wish I still had some of those magazines. To this day I still love getting the mail or receiving packages in the mail. In fact...

Brad's Possibly Radio Friendly Song Pick Of The Week:
The Stationary Set - Haunt On


I love the 90's. This song is pretty heavy and dark, but I love the chorus, especially near the end. I also like the way he says water.

Alright time to end this post. I need to take a shower, I feel funky!
