Something you don't see every day

If you've ever been to touristy areas in a big city , you surely have seen guys that paint themselves all silver or gold and do dance perfomances (or make stupid robot noises). Well, last weekend I was I Fisherman's Wharf, and saw cops putting handcuffs on one such performer. Unfortunately I don't know what promoted his arrest, but it was pretty funny seeing them drag a silver-coated man into their cop car. I'm sure that stained their seats. They also left his silver-coated boombox laying on the ground. Maybe they picked it up later, I don't know. All I know is it would suck sitting in a prison cell with that silver paint on. That stuff is a pain to remove.

I saved the galaxy, now what?

I finished KOTOR this weekend. I must say I enjoyed it. And a big middle finger to those who said "Welcome to 3 years ago"  *cough BobC cough* :P   I was taking classes when it came out and didn't have time for RPG's.

I had gotten Urban Chaos from Gamefly like 2 months ago, so I started playing that now. Saving a city isn't quite as heroic as saving teh galaxy, but electricuting someone with  stungun until they catch on fire is much more amusing than cutting them with a lightsaber. I recommend it!

Late to the party - KOTOR

I finally have gotten around to laying KOTOR. I guess I'm on an RPG kick lately after finishing Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne (which I loved). I tried playing the dark side path, but I couldn't handle being that mean. Yea yea, I'm a goodie goodie. But I got to the major plot twist, and now I'm wanting to replay the game with all the evil choices :)  Sometimes I hate games with multiple choice paths. I want to see both ways to play it, but don't want to spend all that time replaying it.

New media to consume

I got a shipment from Amazon today. I find it amusing how I have a Christian metal band CD (Norma Jean) sitting on top of an atheist book (Letter to a Christian Nation by Sam Harris). I'm waiting for both to annihilate each other like matter and anti-matter.

Strategery

I picked up the new Fire Emblem this evening. I will say goodbye to the world for a few days now. Amazing that GBA games are the ones that I will obsessively play for days on end.

Update: NCAA Hockey

It's a little late, but still worth posting. Cornell beat Harvard 3-1 in the ECAC finals to advance to the NCAA frozen four tournament! We face Ohio State in the first round on Saturday. I wish these games were televised. Oh well, I usually curse my teams when I watch them play so maybe it's for the better!

College hockey to the rescue

The NHL season may be dead, but college hockey is in finals. Cornell just won its semi-final game against Vermont. Complete shutout 3-0! They advance to the ECAC finals against the winner of Harvard/Colgate. The winner of ECAC will advance to the NCAA finals. Woohoo! Cornell was #1 in the ECAC league by the way. Go Big Red!
