Wii Never Knew Each Other Well – Why I gave up on Nintendo’s Wii

Wiimote

I hate saying goodbye to most things that I cling on to. I really hate saying goodbye to products that I give a really good chance of acceptance. I’ve dealt with Antec for power supplies for my PC two times and that didn’t work out. I went with Cooler Master for a new PC case and that didn’t work out. Windows Vista? Need I say more.

I waited for 5 hours in the January cold waiting to buy a Nintendo Wii in 2007. “WiiSports” captured my interest for about 2 days, “The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess” was freakin’ amazing and so were “Super Mario Galaxy” and “No More Heroes”. After nearly two years of owning this system I can no longer find any compelling reason to keep this it in my house. Continue reading →

Stay Classy Long Island – Wal-Mart Worker killed on Black Friday

I’m so glad that I am not working at a retail establishment on Black Friday. While millions of people are off, many who work in retail are not. Most likely, they really hate you for the fact that you are off looking to buy cheap crap that most people will forget about shortly after Christmas or return the day after.

Yankee Stadium is Awesome, but there are 5 things that I HATE about it

Out at the Ball Park - Yankees Vs. Red Sox 070508 (27)

I wrote this junk before 1am. I will be attending the final game at Yankee Stadium today, thanks to stub hub and a credit card closer to my limit. If my iPhone doesn’t die on me, I will blog from the Bronx to give you an eyewitness account of all the hoopla.

I’m sure a lot of Yankee purists would LOVE to return to the days before the 1973 renovations began as it obviously is all better since because it’s old; however Yankee Stadium is NOT perfect. The stadium has been open for 85 years and it doesn’t hold a candle to the modern parks such as Candem Yards, PNC Park, the list goes on. Despite having to put out a second mortgage for season tickets, I guarantee that the new Yankee Stadium will be the finest stadium in all of baseball, maybe even the WORLD. Not only it will have over 9,000 restaurants, it will have a freakin’ Hard Rock Cafe suckers! How can you beat that Citi Field?

Can’t you see I’m getting sarcastic here?

Anyway, I have 5 examples to show you what I hate about Yankee Stadium. All those championships and retired legends can not hide the fact that some things about the stadium suck and should never cross the street in Yankee Stadium III. Continue reading →
