Christmas Gifts!

I was not sure what to write about today. I have not written in a while. One thing that has been interesting about this Christmas season (when it comes to gift giving) is that there are no new items that are the "it" item. The Wii is hot again this year, along with the flat screen t.v. (Plasma and LCD). Apple did come out with the Ipod Touch but there has been plenty of those to feel the demand. The ipod touch is a really cool item, but it is just a iphone without the phone capabilities. Therefore, if I was going to get one, I would rather have the iphone for the same price.
I thought that I wanted Rock Band for Christmas but I have read some reviews, and seen some video on Youtube that makes me not want to buy it. I guess there are some "kinks" that still need to be worked out when it comes to the drums. Buyer beware! I rented Guitar Hero III, and it was AWESOME. Guitar Hero III has been hard to find in stores, especially with the wireless guitar. I bought some early in the season and was able to make a $50 profit on all of them.
Overall, I hope my wife loves what I got her for Christmas. I would list what I got her but I have a suspicion that she would read this blog sometime before Christmas morning. To all that read this, have a great holiday. No matter what religion you are, or what you believe, I hope you can find some peace during this great time of the year.

Nintendo Wii!

Yes it is true, I do have a few of these! I have been lucky enough to find these at the great Wal-Mart! If you want to buy one from me, they are $330 plus $30 shipping. Just email me and I can invoice you through Paypal or Google Checkout. This will be the hottest Christmas item of 2008! It was last year, and it will be this year! They are quite fun! I have really enjoyed it every time I have played one. These Wiis that I am selling are still sealed and brand new, and they include 5 games! This is perfect for the kids! Let me know. If you want to make sure that I am legit, check me out on ebay, my name is nfootball2032. I have sold items before, and just wanted to see if I could sell any through my blog. If not, no big deal, I will sell them on ebay! Thanks for looking and reading my blog, and don't forget to leave a comment.

Full Auto

I continued my search for a good race car game and picked up "Full Auto" from a Pawn Shop last night for $9.99. So far the game is pretty fun if you like shooting up cars and making a lot of explosions. I still prefer "Burnout Revenge" for this type of gaming. But it is hard for other games to keep up with EA Sports when it comes to making games. I am anxiously awaiting the release of "Need for Speed Pro-street" and all that EA has to offer. I am also excited because Microsoft has finally told me that they are returning my Xbox 360! It took about 2 1/2 weeks from the time I sent it in for them to fix it. That is not bad and now I have an extra Xbox 360 to sell during Christmas. If you like "Full Auto" or have anything to add about any other games send me an email. Later yall.

Birthday

So another birthday and one year older. My birthday was awesome. Emily and my mom hooked me up as usual. I probably got every Xbox 360 accessory available. I also found a Cars Car, the "Yeti" on my B-Day which was sweet. Emily got me the new Blackjack! That is one sweet phone. I have got to figure out how to add pics to this thing so you can see exactly what I got. Anyway it was a sweet B-Day, if not one of the best ever.

First Baby Appt.

Emily and I went to our first doctor appointment for her pregnancy. He was real interesting and it seems like they give you so much information. It is really hard to take it all in. They just did some exams, etc. The doctor was really nice and most important Emily like him.
I am continuing to enjoy my Xbox 360. I love to play and talk to Taylor or anyone in my family. It is crazy that we can do video conferencing through a gaming machine. I love it. My family can see Emily and how she is progressing through the Xbox 360 on the TV.
Emily and I were able to go and watch the Seattle Mariners play the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. Seattle took their starting pitcher out in the first inning before he even got an out!!!! I have never seen that before. We had great seats! We were 7 rows behind the Devil Rays bench. I could really see their faces well. I know that Emily has pictures posted on her myspace, and you can link to hers through mine at www.myspace.com/brianemily. It was a beautiful ball park and would recommend that any baseball fan make a trip there.

Xbox 360

I have been so impressed with this machine until last night when the three (3) red lights starting flashing on my 360!!! I was so mad until I unplugged the machine and plugged it back in. It worked after that, but after calling gamestop I am convinced that I should send it in to get fixed. They stated that the problem will continue and just happen more often. So, I will send it in especially since Xbox just extended the warranty to 3 YEARS on the blinking red lights. To anyone reading this if you have the 3 flashing red lights, send your machine in! Do it while you can....

Law School Finals May '07

It is the week before finals and everyone is running around the library with their heads chopped off looking and asking for the perfect outline for their class. I like to watch the 1Ls stress while making their 50+ page outlines, and then ask me "is that long enough" and have them look at me like I am stupid when I tell them it is too long.
I had a realization the other day when I figured out that my mind is not being opened by law school, but it may be being shut. I only believe this because of my undergrad degree of English. It seems to me that when I was reading Tolstoy the world would open and real thoughts about life would enter. Now it seems that I have become more of cynical person looking at the world in a way of who is liable to who. I like the law, I like what it does, I just want my mind opened more by my studies in law school. I just find it useless memorizing an outline that if I was a real practicing lawyer I could simply look up what I was memorizing. Yet, this is how we are graded and put into brackets; by how much we can memorize and put on paper for an exam. Does that make any sense? Not to me. But life generally does not make sense.
