What To Never Carry In Your Wallet...A USB Drive

I mean seriously. Who carries a USB in their wallet. You can read about why you should not carry it around right here. Some of Yahoo's articles have been really stupid, hence I'm calling this one out. Read this excerpt: "'It may sound silly, but if you're changing earrings or heading from a business meeting, it's very possible you may forget and toss these things in the zipper compartment of your wallet,' says Lin."No Lin, it doesn't sound silly. It sounds stupid. Changing your earrings. The real question is why do you have a USB drive in your hands in the first place? If your USB drive is not on your keychain, then you shouldn't be carrying one in general. 

Some Soccer Players Get Paid Way Too Much

I was reading Mirror Football, a British football (soccer) newspaper, and found that Manchester City (yes the one with the Billionaire owner) have signed ANOTHER forward. In the past 3 years, they've signed Robinho, Santa Cruz, Tevez, Adebayor and Dzeko. But that's not what's making me upset. Apparently Argentinean super star Sergio "Kun" Aguero will be making 200,000 pounds a week. Zero bull shit here. "£200,000-per-week"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check it out for yourself here. That guy will make more in a week than most Americans will in 4-8 years. To place that in perspective, 200,000 pounds is approximately $327,417 USD. After British taxes (which is 50% because of universal healthcare and other great programs that free by the government), he will still be making $163,708 USD a week. Let me make this as clear as I can. A WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (I have to admit, this picture of Aguero after scoring a goal is pretty awesome)

Planet of the Apes

So lately I've been watching films that I've seen in the past but don't remember anything about it. Current case in point: Tim Burton's 2001 remake of Planet of the Apes. I enjoyed the film and slowly remembered all the scenes. I really want to go see Rise of the Planet of the Apes even though I have yet to comprehend how it fits with all the other movies.

Saturday was a good day

I got to see my girlfriend, spend the afternoon with her and watched as Chivas de Guadalajara defeat Atlante

Las Chivas Rayadas de Guadalajara

I'm going today to San Diego with my mother to go watch Chivas v Real Madrid play a friendly. I'm super duper excited. I love both teams and have posters of each in my room. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity and I get to be there =D

Inception

I saw Inception last night after my really good friend/neighbor told me to watch the movie back in February. A great and spectacular film from beginning to end. The film is 100% original and actually got spooked out by the idea of a dream inside a dream inside another dream. Crazy shit...seriously.

1 Year Anniversary

On July 9, 2011 was my 1 year anniversary with my beautiful girlfriend. I love her to death and wouldn't trade her for the world.

Alien

So I decided Monday night (July 18) that I would begin watch all four Alien movies in a row...and I did. I enjoyed the first 3 movies the most, Alien: Resurrection just seemed liked they pushed the series. I mean seriously, they brought back Ripley as a human/ alien hybrid with the use of DNA after she had thrown herself into molten steel -_-. I think I'm going to go with Aliens as my favorite movie of the four. 100% action and badassness.

Lego Video Games

I love Lego video games because they're hilarious and very fun to play. Up to now, I had only beaten Lego Star Wars: The Complete Series and Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4. So in the past two weeks I've bought Lego Indiana Jones and Lego Pirates of the Caribbean. I'm enjoying both games very much. I plan to buy Lego Harry Potter: Years 5-7 in November.

Amoeba

About two weeks ago I went to Amoeba Records in Hollywood and bought Mastodon's Blood Mountain on vinyl (you already know how much I love that band) and bought the Alien Quadrilogy because I hadn't seen the Alien movies and thought it was a good deal.
