So back in April I finally bought an Xbox to get on Live and try this "WrestleMania 21" game people were talking about. Well the game came out and, well, pretty much everyone agreed it was terrible.
This was fine, however, as I now have the ability to play a lot of games I missed out on (and still haven't bothered playing yet...soon!). For instance, I really think Knights of the Old Republic is a kickass game. I also finally borrowed Halo 2 from a friend last night and, while I totally suck
Some commercials really bother me with their technical ignorance...
There's the Cogeco Cable video on demand one that features a man with tattoos and a gruff voice getting teary eyed over allegedly just watching a romance film, yet the images (though somewhat blurred to try and mask this) are just commercials for video on demand movies.
Today I saw a commercial, I think it was for window installation, where a man is flipping through channels on his TV not by using the large green chann
So I was way off on my thoughts on what would happen on Raw. Edge being chased away by Kane is a logical reason for him to have not cashed in on his best (and perhaps last) chance to use his Money in the Bank contract though.
Anyhow, today at the 7-11, a banana flavoured Kit Kat bar caught my eye. Much like banana flavoured popsicles and Slurpee, this has that familiar "artificial taste that tastes nothing like a banana" that I find pretty swell.
Also I noticed Wild Cherry Pepsi was on
Saw Vengeance, liked it (of course, I'm a mark).
Slightly confused why so many people voted the HIAC as the MOTN in Meltz's feedback though. Dave himself even went out to say it was "considerably better" than a match he already gave ****1/4 to (Cena vs. JBL). I'm not huge on star ratings... it's all subjective.. but to me that match seemed like the usual dull encounter HHH and Batista have had stretched out 10 minutes longer but with more weapons and blood. I was getting into it by the end
I'm not really into that whole music thing so these random opinions I thought up while looking at Yahoo's front page link to their Buzz section may mean nothing to anyone but I realized I had an outlet for them so whatever...
American Idol is stupid.
Bo Bice is the stupidest name I've ever heard.
"Hit Me Baby One More Time" is the stupidest name for a TV show I've ever heard... these people realize it's the name of a Britney Spears song from 1998, right?
"She Will Be Loved" i
I enjoy playing Play-Per-View on Stablewars for every PPV... the socring system is pretty good (your correct prediction gets 1 point for every wrong prediction by other players) and until the ECW PPV I was doing quite good for the season (Backlash - WM).
Check it out

First off, Shinji (aka MisawaGQ) rocks. He should start a blog here with his puro and indy thoughts and what not. And apparently he did! Hooray!
Second, based on the draft pattern so far, Eddie will be one of the 2 final draftees on Raw this Monday. Three of the draftees seem to have been moved after a long feud ended and they were on the losing end - Benoit (Edge), Angle (Booker), and Hassan (Raw Roster - waiting for 1st defeat). Eddie has now lost his feud to Rey and since they didn't sa
I learned a valuable lesson this week...
When your forum signature is a counter for a title reign, do not assume it is safe to set it 5 days ahead while you are on vacation because WWE wouldn't change a title 6 days before a PPV. It was a bit weird to come home on Wednesday and watch a tape of Raw only to see Shelton Benjamin lose his IC title on Monday while my forum signature claimed he was still IC champ on Wednesday. It seems few cared or noticed though.

That's quite the catchy song, eh? Wonder if WWE will ever produce the quality of WrestleMania: The Album again, complete with Roddy Piper inquring if we are ready for Survivor Series to open a song about WrestleMania.
So that Knights of the Old Republic game is pretty sweet eh? I'm just playing through it now, I've done 2 of the 4 planets tha
A blog eh... so I guess I can sorta write "Shades" again but in a totally condensed random whatever comes to mind format... which is kinda how the full fleged columns were if I had enough ideas and time to write one.
So last night some people were throwing a bit of a fit over Vengeance and demanding no one order a PPV that was "obviously being booked in an attempt to outdo ECW's PPV", apparently forgetting it's all the same company.
In return, I became somewhat frustrated and made seve
