The Sims Run Your Life

So, I decided to try out this game called The Sims on my iBook. I've heard about it and how addictively cool it is. Well, I got a copy from somewhere (take a wild guess), and I am trying it out. I was never a real big fan of the sim games like SimCity and so forth. And, I'm not a real big fan of this game. The game is stupid. How stupid? Can't be that stupid since I played it 40 hours within the last 5 days. I think the copy I got was laced with PCP, THC, LSD, and GHB. I can't pry myself away from it.

I feel like I am playing dolls on my computer. This game has taken over my life. I tell my sim character when to eat and shit, while I sit at my desk denying myself of these necessities. If you played the game, you know how frustrating it is to start off. The damn sim is always depressed cause his social interactions are down because the sim is always off to work. And if he doesn't go to work, your going broke, starving, pissing on yourself, and just dying on your front sidewalk.

I finally got my one sim bachelor close to proposing to someone else's wife. Haha, take that you bald headed bitch Bob Newbie. You should of treated Betty better. Now Betty is all over my jock. Don't worry Bob, you can still come over and use my pool.

What is really fun about this game is fucking with the sims. I like to kill them. For instance, if they are swimming in the pool; take away the ladder. They will drown. Or erase the doors of the room they are in. Its fun to come up with ways to kill them off. Once they die, tombstones start popping up.

My new Sim family is a social experiment. What happens when you have 8 sims living in a cramped one room house with a toilet in the kitchen. This ought to be interesting.

The Meat Raffle Lap Dance of Scudweiser

Ever been to a meat raffle? A meat raffle takes place at these private club of drinking. Most likely a Rod&Gun Club or VFW. These events are a raffle for prizes of meat. You buy numbered tickets and if your number is picked you win a package of meat. The place I goes to gives away a nice variety of meats or they will give away 10lbs of Haddock Filet. Its a great time if you win. (I am on a 2 year cold streak.) Usualy the same people win multiple times, and that always pisses me off. Why can't it be me? You'd usualy be better off saving the $40+ and actually go to the grocery store. The club makes out on the deal. They do provide free beer and food during the event. Granted the beer was either Coors Lite or Budweiser. I chose Bud. Damn Bud gave me the nasty shits!

It's funny the people that you meet at these places. I sat with some people that I didn't know, but I seen their drunken asses at the bar during the year. It's funny to see dysfunctional people call the people around them are "weird". It's way to funny.

I got joking around with these guys the farther and farther we travelled down the drunken path. These guys kept buying multiple tickets from this one girl. Which I admit she was ok. But for these older unfortunate men, she was Grade A Prime Rib. They had no problem buying from her more. I called her "The Meat Raffle Lap Dance".

The money I dump into the raffle is a mere donation. I will get the money back when I take both my kids to the Xmas party. Kids get great gifts every year. Private bars are great.

I'm off to enjoy my 65 cent drafts!

Luxo :: A blog dedicated to Pixar Animation Studios

I recently found this blog for Pixar. Of course, it is full of Incredible's info and cool insight to the creators and voice actors. However, the most recent post caught my attention. It gives us a sneak peak at what to expect next from Pixar. Their next movie is called "Cars" starring Owen Wilson as Lightning McQueen. It's Pixar, so you know the animation will be astounding with complete detail on each of the inanimate car characters.

Cars is expected to be the last of seven animated Pixar efforts distributed by Disney since the two companies parted ways. Toy Story, Toy Story 2, A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc. and Finding Nemo's worldwide box office total is $2.6 billion.
