Bombastic Bloviation and Pleonastic Opinion
Random thoughts from my vacation in St. Augustine
(1) What is with the proliferation of mothers with tattoos?  Before you think of getting all tatted up, ladies, remember this: it may seem cool now, but when you're 40 and have three kids, that tribal arm-band and tramp-stamp is just gross. ...
Iron Maiden Rock Band DLC

Finally, some DLC for Rock Band that I can sink my teeth into.  It's been a while since I have downloaded a full week's worth of DLC in one shot.  There has almost always been something I did not like.  Or, in the case of the Country Music Track Pack or the Pixies full album, something that I hate.  There was the Megadeth album "Peace Sells...But Who's Buying?", but since then the DLC has been so not to my taste that I downloaded nothing or so eclectic that there were only one or two songs that I wanted. 

This week it's the surprise release of a 12-song pack from the British heavy metal giants Iron Maiden

Left 4 Dead 2 Revealed at E3
As some of you know, I am a huge fan of the first-person shooter Left 4 Dead.  The only complaint I had was that it was so short.  But, it is endlessly replayable with multiple difficulty levels, couch co-op, and a variety of fun online multi...

With Obama taking over Chrysler and GM and unconstitutionally giving controlling shares to his buddies at the AFL-CIO as a payback for their support in the election, the question is: what can we expect from these companies in the future?  Already...

Diggin' Me Some Mass Effect...again
Mass Effect was a rare specimen of a game.  Superb storytelling, gorgeous graphics, a huge universe to explore.  It was so good that I've played through it twice, just to see how different decisions affect the outcome of the game (yes, you...

Andrew McCarthy's Letter to the Obama Administration

You Gotta Love this Guy's Guts.  Read on.

Obama too pooped to give a damn about our oldest ally

I thought the new administration was going to restore our standing in the world.  Bush had so alienated our allies that we needed to mend some fences, right?  So how, exactly, does repeatedly dissing our closest ally, the United Kingdom, restore our standing?

We've pledged $900-billion to HAMAS in Gaza.  We have pledged to pay to upgrade the security forces in the West Bank.  So, I guess we've improved our standing with the towel-headed anti-Israel crowd in the Middle East.  We've threatened "America First" provisions in our various pork spending plans which nearly sparked a trade-war with Europe.  And now our super-genius president has twice pissed-off our closest ally.
