Welp, the results of the Balance of Power poll are in. Buncha Commies read my blog. I actually forgot to vote on this one. Oh well.
Balance of power for those who don't know is a computer game that my big brother and my little brother would play for hours on end patiently practicing diplomacy while their middle brother clawed his eyes out just hoping someone would get nuked so that we could play Infiltrator instead. Don't forget to put the helicopter on whisper mode or you've screwed up right from the start. Good times.

Yeah, I'm pretty great.

Well, It seemed about time for a graph.

Commercial review

So I normally try not to be too commercial or endorse one brand over another on this blog, though there have been a few exceptions. Usually it occurs when such and such a product is related to a human roblog tenet, such as 3m's Scotch-Brite pads for dishwashing. This is actually pretty difficult a lot of the time because I enjoy watching commercials so much, and often want to mention them here. I have dabbled with the possibility of beginning another blog for television commercial review, but that is crazy because I have a hard enough time merely getting posts up here.
So I'm doing it anyways. Robhut.
But I think television commercials reflect corporations' opinions of their audience. I am almost offended when huge corporations have crappy, or poorly thought out commercials. I know I personally enjoy the funny ones the most. I probably hold some bias in this respect, but I know that outside the realm of funny ads there is plenty of acceptable commercial advertising (like a Head & Shoulder commercial) and then there is not even trying (like so many McCain [foods] commercials).
So enjoy.

Giant hydraulic spiders

So It is crazy how many ideas I have for posts and then forget about them.. Not only that, but I'm always like, 'oh, I won't forget that', or 'I'll write it down when I get home'. Lately I'm having ideas all the time, but not many make it to paper or the screen. Some ideas I do remember, but they're going to require a lot of work to post. Problem is, my creative moments are usually when I'm walking to school, or working out at the gym, or driving, or basically whenever there isn't a pen and paper readily available. I need one of those pop-out note pads like Kevin Klein had in Wild Wild West, so I can write down whatever strikes me as remarkable at whatever given time. But I don't have to save the American government or Salma Hayek from Kenneth Branagh.... yet... so my ideas don't seem important enough to merit inventing a neat contraption like that.
