After days of watching the news release confusing reports, Alan comes home from work to find his wife infected and now going through the zombification process. With his daughter Sofie and cat Giblet, Alan will go searching for answers…and survivors.

Will his years of Resident Evil play prepare him for the adventure that awaits him?

Winter of 2010

What do you think of the new look?  Should we continue to explore?  I have asked Craig and Keith to look around so you might see several changes in the next few weeks.

Where do I begin?  Can I root for both teams to lose?  This year, it couldn’t have been worse, not only for my beloved and beleaguered Mets but at the end, the World Series is made up of the two teams I despise the most, the Yanks and Phils.

Now I hate both teams but for different reasons.  With the Yankees, it comes down to being crosstown rivals, calling themselves America’s Team, and having the opportunity to throw massive amounts of money to any player they want.  The reality is that every teams spends money, just some more than most.  Unlike years past, the Yankees spent it on good players in their prime.  I think the Burnett signing might bite them later on but the others, like CC Sabathia and Mark Teixeira, will benefit them for several years.  Red Sox fans can complain about the Yanks spending money but they, and the Mets, do it as well.

The Philies are a different story.  They are division rivals.  Each year they have a player that assures their NL East title, and they follow through.  They are made up of a series of blowhards, like Shane Victarino, Jimmy Rollins, and Brett Myers.  They play in a ballpark that is the size of Purnell Field (replace this with any little league field in your area).  They sign Pedro Martinez to a contract and gues what, he is successful.  The Mets paid him 55 million for taking up DL space and the Phils get a good pitcher.  How does that work?  Finally, my brother is a rabid Phillies fan and to give him more fuel for the fire during the offseason and into next season is more than I can take.  How can I honestly prove the Mets can win the East when they blow it, big time, year after year.

So I guess it can come down to players and who I would like to see win a World Series.  While it would be nice to see Father Time, Raul Ibanez, win a WS ring, I cannot cheer for a team that employs Pedro.  That bastard stole money and should be paying the Mets back for the last two years of that contract (not like the Sox didn’t warn us though).  For the Yanks, I would like to see Tex and Sabathia both win since they are both hard working players in the perfect situation.  But do I want to see A-Rod win?  It is funny that New York was looking for ways to void that contract after the steriod information leaked.  Now he is a Yankee hero for batting about .400 in the playoffs.
I guess I watch the World Series and cheer for no one.  I don’t care who wins.  If the Phils win, I hope Pedro has nothing to do with it.  If he does, he should send his ring or money to the Mets, since they not only paid him 55 million but also paid and took care of his surgeries.  If the Yanks win, I hope it is because of CC, Tex, and Jeter.  I just don’t want to see A-Rod have a Reggie Jackson moment in the W.S.

PS…both teams suck…GO 2010 NEW YORK METS-Your next World Series Champs.

While watching Family Guy a few weeks back, I came to the conclusion that it is probably the funniest 1/2 hour on television.  This is in reference to the episode “Family Goy”, where Lois finds out she has Jewish blood.  First of all, the first five or so minutes could be the funniest 5 minutes I have EVER seen on television.  Go to either hulu.com or fox.com and watch the beginning.  Let me know what you think.

Of course it also has some more funny moments, check out where the family first prays in the synagogue.

Anyway, check it out.  That episode is well worth watching.

Several days ago I was able to watch Wolverine.  Now I did enjoy seeing all of the X-Men characters but overall the movie sucked.  To be honest, I think there was one origin story which was a bit more exciting than that.  I was watching Noggin, or Nick Jr for you sell-outs, at 7 pm for our evening Dora before Sofie goes off to bed.  Lo and behold, it was the Dora origin story.  It basically was about how she met all of her friends.  The difference between this and Wolverine is that at least Dora didn’t push us shit and call it sugar.  Sure it was stupid and made no sense.  But it didn’t change any storylines like Wolverine did.  Deadpool is Weapon XI?  What is that all about.
