Static Acts' Motionless AgendaI am known as Static Acts on XBOX Live, welcome to My Space! Please leave a comment! September 01 Windows Live WriterI just downloaded Windows Live Writer, a publishing tool for MSN Spaces. It seems pretty cool so far. Basically, it's a WYSIWYG editor for your spaces. It reminds me of the old FrontPage express. I'm typing this in Live Writer right now. When I'm done, I hit the "Publish" button and then it's uploaded. I'll keep checking this out, I'm just scraping the surface of it right now. March 18 Guitar Hero II for XBOX 360 Guitar Hero II is on it's way to release next month!I've only tinkered with the Playstation version but I plan on going in heavy and hard with this one. Any product that has an Iron Maiden tune in its advertisement is a must buy for me! I can't wait to jam out to some awesome tunes. It doesn't look like the graphics have been upgraded that much from the Playstation version...it basically looks like the same game from the screenshots I've seen. Achievements?

As most of you know I've been busy with studies for my new job. My week consists of:
Needless to say I have very little time for anything, including my family. I'm tired most of the time and it will be like this until April. It's not anything that I can't handle and I'm actually having fun. How many people get paid to go to school and get in shape? Hopefully after April I'll be back into XBOX Gaming. Maybe the good games will be on the used rack by then! Merry Christmas, Everyone!
November 22 Happy Thanksgiving!With starting my new job, I am finding that I indeed won't have much time to play on the 360. I'm only in pre-academy now and my time is already scarce. It gets worse after December 4 when I go to the real academy. I'm having fun and enjoying it, but it is and will be tough work for the next 4 months.
It's 5:45 AM now and I have to get the kids up soon to get them to the babysitter's house. It's not just me making sacrifices, my entire family is and that is definitely something to be thankful for!
With Gears of War and Rainbow 6 Vegas out now I'm kind of bummed that I don't get to enjoy them with everyone else. On the flip side of that, I can get my copy cheap after 4 months after everyone's finished theirs!
I will continue to check in at Virtual Toxicity as often as I can. If you haven't been to Virtual Toxicity, go there now or the bunny gets it! November 16 The Launch of the Playstation 3 People are already standing in line days before launch reminiscent of the Halo 2 release. Except this time it has nothing to do with the XBOX, it's the Sony Playstation 3. The Wii is about $200 more than the XBOX 360, but people are still lining up for it.I don't know anyone personally who is anxiously awaiting the PS3 since most of the people I know are XBOX and XBOX 360 gamers. If you're getting this at launch, please leave a comment. I would like to know what advantages the PS3 have over the XBOX 360. I highly doubt my mind will be changed about getting a PS3, but I'm interested in hearing the other side of the story.
It will be interesting to hear the news from users after the launch about its reliability and just what exactly it does. Can it really compete with XBOX 360 and XBOX Live? November 13 Police AcademyThis is my last free week as I am starting my new career next Monday, November 20. I will start pre-academy with the Gilbert Police Department and then head off to the Arizona Law Enforcement Academy. Needless to say, you won't see much of me on XBOX Live due to the fact that most of my time will be devoted to studying. There are a lot of great games coming out prior to Christmas, but they will still be there when I'm done.
To my XBOX Live friends, keep in touch! I will still be here and may pop in from time to time! October 12 Misc UpdateI haven't updated this blog in a while, and I'm not sure if anyone is even reading this. Nonetheless, I thought I would post something.
Last year, we moved from Arizona to Georgia (my home state) for a job. We stayed for a few months, but it just didn't work out for us as a family. My wife then got a great job offer back in Arizona where she worked previously. It's a high-level nursing supervisor position, so it was fortunate so that I could resign from my job and focus on getting us moved again.
Now we're back in Arizona and I'm thinking hard about my career goals. I know that I want to continue my education, but I am thinking that I will not be working in the corporate world. It's too...corporate! I really do not want to divulge too much information on my prospective career path until it's a sure thing. I'll just say that it's a huge departure from Web Design and it has nothing to do with digging ditches! However, I can say that it's a huge pay cut...but worth it if it all works out.
 Iron Maiden have a new album out, and I have to say that it RULES! Unforuntately, they're playing only a limited number of USA shows and the closest to me is Irvine, CA. I guess I'm not as hardcore as I used to be to make the trip. Either that, or adult life has gotten the best of me!This is very heavy and progressive album. If you've ever liked Maiden, you should really check this out!
I'll update the photos section with some recent pictures of our new house and such. If you're reading this, thanks! Leave a comment and let me know you were here! |
