A Waste of Time of the Apocalypse

  The end of days, revelations, Ragnarok, the era of Mad Max (before Thunderdome), a large chunk of the universe is obsessed with the concept of the end of the world. Doomsday preparation is an industry in the United Sates and thriving more each day with the advent of the reality shows devoted to it. But what really happens when the world ends in a whimpering of it's former self. I say nothing, because it will never end.
  Let me explain: The "world ending" isn't the concept of the actual Earth ceasing to exist and all life on the planet dying (at least with what I am referring to). The concept I am blogging about is the breakdown of society. It's the civilized world going completely to shit and being replaced by chaos on the extreme that it requires gates and guns to be the protection, and savior of everything we hold dear. This comes off to me as a little crazy ("BatShit" is the actual term used in place of "little"), and self serving to certain murderous fantasies of those that prescribe to the concept of total societal breakdown.
  Protection of a person's home is one thing, I understand that completely, but mass stockpiling weapons and ammunition is past my grasp of home security. Another theory I will throw out is this: Some citizens have a fantasy of murder and want the freedom to do so. The only way to obtain this liberty to legally (a breakdown of law makes everything legal) take a life is if the human race is thrust into complete and total apocalypse. Issues that come up against this are that it doesn't seem that anywhere in history a complete and total breakdown of the basic tenets of society have existed. Sure, there has been parts of countries, that were unstable to begin with, where lawlessness became rampant. But people naturally flee from that sort of violence and instability in droves (look at Africa once in a while). They move towards law and order, for a better life, when their world goes through the proverbial 'dogs anus'. Our natural instincts are for a better life, it doesn't matter who or where you are.
  The human spirit and creating a better lace for those who come after us is what most strive for. I do. My children will inherit a better world because of the way I treat my existence. Hopefully they do the same thing because of the example that is set for them. Hopefully.

PGR4 (or Thank God I Rented this Game!)

Project Gotham Racing 4 (PGR4) is a racing game by Microsoft Games Studios and Bizzare Creations. From what I had been hearing this wasn't a bad game. I figured instead of dropping $60 on a game I hadn't been anticipating, I would rent it. And thank God I did! I'm not saying that PGR4 is a bad game, it's not. I'm just iterating that it's boring. I guess if I had been more excited, like I was for Forza 2 (pronounced "Fortza Too"), getting into this game would not have been a problem. But it was. I've had the game for 3 days and have played it twice. And I've only really enjoyed myself once. I'm not a big fan of losing my first race, or my second race, or my third race, or my...well, I think you get it by now. Normally with a slightly difficult game I really wouldn't have a problem, but it's a freakin' racing game! I'm slightly good at racing games, I don't lose races until it starts getting hard. I'm n

MAN UP AND ADMIT IT ALREADY!

Men also avid players of casual video games: study from Reuters.com folow the link for the whole article. Mon Oct 29, 2007 2:04pm EDT SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Men are just as likely as women to play casual video games, but are less likely to admit it, according to an industry report that shatters a widely held industry belief that such games appeal mainly to women. But women are more likely to buy casual games -- a broad term referring to games that are easy to pick and play -- than men, who are more determined to find a free version or try to thwart anti-piracy protections on games. Those were some of the findings in the first yearly market report by the Casual Games Association, an industry group aimed at promoting a fast-growing segment that accounts for about 10 percent of the $30 billion global video game market. Congratulations, Reuters, you now know something that every guy in the world knew for years! I'm not going to say that I play or enjoy casual games.

How to be Depressed.

  I am clinically depressed.   If you look up the checklist (from  www.uclahealth.org/resnick/checklist-for-depression ) you will find the following list: Depressive mood.  Do you suffer from feelings of worthlessness, helplessness, or pessimism for days at a time? Sleep disturbance.  Do you have trouble falling asleep at night or trouble staying asleep, or are waking up in the middle of the night or too early in the morning? Are you sleeping too much? Chronically fatigued.  Do you frequently feel tired or lack energy? Isolation.  Have you stopped meeting with family or friends? Increasing isolation and diminished interest or pleasure in activities are major signs of depression. Appetite disturbance.  Are you eating far less than usual—or far more? Severe and continuing appetite disturbance is often an indication of depression. Inability to concentrate.  If you can't seem to focus on even routine tasks, it's probably time
