  Movies, Superbowl stories, new items... And a new level!!!

  First things first.... Imagine the image in the previous post, but replace 8 with 9 and Sectoid with Blaster Master. I'm to lazy to "print screen" my profile, crop it, upload it to photobucket, etc...

  Anyway, from earliest to latest...

  Superbowl Sunday!!!

  Woke up and went to the inaugural service for River Cross Baptist. After some disagreements I had with the new pastor of the church I went too, I chose to leave the church I got saved in and attended for the last 3 years. Luckily, most of the people from my old church that I knew well are going to River Cross as well, and I could care less about the building. It's the people who make up the church.

  Have you ever seen those tire inflators that do it for you? You enter a number and it fills it to that PSI? Don't use those. It overfilled my tires, and when speeding down the road I lived on, the friction and heat from the sun killed a tire. I ended up getting 4 new tires. My dad and I bought the tires, but they forgot to take them off the shelves, so minutes later, we're standing there and this man starts flipping out. He saw some tires he wanted on the shelf, but when he went to buy them, they were all sold out. Go figure that they were mine... So he finds out that it was us, and he gives me the stink eye for the next four hours. Four hours in PepBoys waiting for tires...

  So I leave Pepboys, and I'm coming down University Ave. This car next to me starts going haywire. A pick-up truck in front of him was carrying an expensive gas grill, and it bumped out and went spinning all over the road. Pieces were flying everywhere... I was afraid I'd lose my tires just after getting them.

  Went to a friends house to watch the Superbowl, but they were being major tools. I was randomly going for Philly, and my roommate was going for the Pats. I'd appreciate good Pats plays (like that rushing play where a Pat went all Mike Alstott and carried three defenders about 10 yards), but he got all pissy when the Eagles did good. He doesn't even care about football, though. He abandoned the game around ten minutes in and starting talking and playing guitarl. So I left and watched it at my friends apartment.

  Movies!!!

  I've watched so many movies in the past week, ones that I haven't seen before. The best of them was Se7en. It was just awesome. If you haven't seen it, I recommend it. Today, I watched three movies

  1. Memento - SEE THIS MOVIE!!! It's really good, especially if you like mind-bending thrillers.
  2. Shade - A poker movie with Jamie Foxx, Sly Stallone, Gabrial Byrne, and no clear protagonist/plot. Still interesting.
  3. Arlington Road - This movie pissed my roommates off. If you don't know why, watch it. I was fine with it.

  New Stuff!!!!!

  When my Complete membership went full on, the first thing I did was buy RE4 off EB games. It is such an awesome game. It's really hard, too. It makes me feel like less of a gamer. I struggle on certain parts, and I'm playing on Normal. At least I'm not using a guide...

  Also, about 2 hours ago, I participated in and one my first competitive auction on E-Bay. I stole something right from under someone, too. It was awesome. Here's my prize... It's 4 ft by 6 ft. Alright, y'all, until next time!!!

  New level and other random, bulleted updates...

  

  I saw some other people doing this, so I thought, what the heck, I'll be vain and unoriginal too.

  Minor updated...

  • My brother is still doin fine. I haven't heard when the stitches come out.
  • I'm about to get fired from work for not cutting my hair. I refuse to give in (fight the power!), even though my one of my roommates who I work with has already given in.
  • I downloaded about 60 new fonts from www.1001freefonts.com . Some of the better ones were all kinds of 24 fonts I can use for my UCB and other random, probably copyrighted ones like Disney and Pizza Hut. I'll have some fun with those.
  • My other roommate stole my toothpaste. Not really anything important, but my breath is starting to smell...

  Alright, until next time something interesting happens...

  Hospital results, seatbelts,... and a new banner!

  Wow... My brother got back from the hospital last night. He's doing decent...

  The truck is totalled. It looks like it got hit by a train. It was one of the early 80's tank-ish F-150's. There was a cave-in in the front - a u-shape that reached to the cab, totally decimating the engine. The only glass damaged was in the front passenger side where my brother smashed his head through the windshield. I got to see it up close - there was still some of his hair lodged in the glass. He wasn't wearing his seatbelt, and the patrols said that if they were driving anything else other that and 80's F-150 (or something else tank-like) he would have been dead. No ifs, ands or buts, either. Straight dead.

  He's doing ok, though. I got him a smoothie (apparently it hurts to chew) and rented him a movie. When I got there, he wasn't home though. He went to his GED class to explain his future absences and to show the horrors of not wearing a seat belt. This is a lesson to all of you, too. My dad was nice enough to take pics from the hospital...

  For those who read these (there's like 3 of you- thanks, by the way), STRONG PARENTAL DISCRETION. THESE ARE SOME FAIRLY GRITTY PICS! LOOK AT YOUR OWN RISK! Ok, they're not that bad, but still. Squeamish be warned...

  Also, I was tooling around with PaintShopPro effects, found one that looks cool with that gradient, slapped a boarder and pic of my favorite actor on, and voila, my new journal banner. Well, that's all for now. Adios.

  *Edit* I got the pics of the truck. I'll put em here, since they're not that graphic.
