I hate Snakes
Similar to Indiana Jones, I hate snakes. Being out in the canyon area I definitely encounter a lot of them, but today was the worst yet.
While I was eating eggs and rice, my mom went outside to throw out some garabage. Soon after I hear her scream and I go open the side door to the garage. A snake comes into the house. There’s a reason why humans built homes – to separate themselves from nature. When nature enters your home you have to defend it.
The snake went over by our staircase, which is thankfully by the front entrance. I brushed it out and then stupid enough it went back into the garage.
I grabbed the pool cleaning pool and tried to smash the snake’s head in the wall. I felt like that kid in 300 who fights a wolf. Ok snakes aren’t wolves, but you get the point.
It was too quick for my thrust. It scurried outside and wond up entering into the pond. It was there that the snake evaded me.
One day I will get this snake back… one day…
Miniature Mobile iPod Games
First a little Family Gamer business; while clearing the office out, ready for its transformation into Ollie’s room, I discovered some Nintendo games to give away. If you fancy winning Metroid Prime on Wii (PAL) just post a ‘family gaming moment’ on my Facebook wall before the end of May. Those who follow me on twitter had some advance warning and as you will see there are some great stories already, but there is still plenty of time to get your entry in.
More interestingly for today’s article, my clearout also turned up a misplaced iPod and some unused iTunes cards – the perfect opportunity to try out some iPod games. I’ve wanted to give them s spin since I noticed that two family friendly developers (Harmonix and PopCap) announced their games on Apple’s popular music player.
When jeans go bad
Ever since Levi’s made jeans there’s been no turning back. It’s amazing to think a bit of cloth styled in a certain way would have such an impact on our clothing choices to this day. It’s hard to imagine life without jeans.
No matter how into or out of fashion you are chances are that you often wear them. I mean who never wears jeans. Everybody does. From toddlers to oldies everybody dons a bit of denim now and then.
But what happens when they go bad? Continue reading and I’ll show you. Make sure you’ve got your safety goggles on.
Wooden wonder: Vita Audio’s R4
Vita Audio-those fine purveyors of quality audio equipment have conjured up yet another dreamy looking stereo that combines a soft wood finish with the reassuring touch of steel. That’s not all though, it does contain some cool features too.
First 7 Minutes of Speed Racer
Wondering whether or not this movie will be your forte? I know I sure am. Thankfully we have the first 7 minutes of the film so judge for yourself!
Personally I’m already nauseous.
