Back on the blog. I've been unable to access my host for a while, because I didn't ever ask anyone how to get on any other way, but now I'm back. Tomorrow's a big day for me. It's my first foray into the world of HDTV. I've bought the Sony 30" Widescreen HDTV.



And since my other half has said she didn't necessarily care where it went, and armed with the knowledge that I'd want to play Xbox on it a lot, it's going into my "office". My main concern now is that my entertainment hutch may not hold it up. It apparently weighs 150lbs! No tuner, that's the main bummer, but I figure if I ever get cable with HD service, the box will have its own tuner anyway. I'm still trying to push for a new ActionCorp TV episode, but the response from the other guys has been less than stellar. I suppose I could turn some stuff on my own. I just like having stuff out there. It's fun to create and share our thoughts and reviews with others. Oh, well. Hopefully I'll get off my ass more often and post to this, but it seems to come in spurts. Here's hoping I write tomorrow. Whether anyone else feels the same, I do not know..

It's my first day back to my old job since a week and a half ago. It was good to be back. I really enjoy creating graphics and webpages ( at least, what little I can do with WorldNow's limited interface). I still wish video were on its way, but I suppose I might learn about that in the upcoming weeks. Second night of 24 was very good. I think it could be a new favorite. Still trying to figure out just what to do with the PSOne screens. They're nothing like Craig's new 42" plasma TV he won on some crazy-ass web contest. Poor Craig.

So I just watched 24's Season 4 premiere. It was incredible! I didn't realize what I've been missing. It was a great combo of Alias, Tom Clancy stuff and gritty cop dramas. Neat premise, too. Now, I've borrowed my Dad's Season One DVD's, so I can catch up to what's going on. I hope the season continues at the same pace as the premiere. Can't wait until tomorrow night's second round of episodes. Also, I picked up two of these today:


Sony PSOne Screen

They were only $35 at Toys R Us today. Don't know exactly what I'm going to do with them yet, but I've got a few ideas, including a possible portable media center. Can't wait to go back to my regular job, now that Pumo's back to produce his shows. But I really can't wait until we get streaming video on the site. Good night.

Okay, I'm back. I think I want to design a new site that isn't as crappy as it is now. I'm taking some online sessions with Flash MX. I'd like to at least be able to do some sort of interactive banner. We'll see.

Halloween has come and gone. I never ended up dressing up for it, so I can't post any pictures of the festivities. But, I did find a neat costume online that someone made. This is a pic of the character he modeled it after..

and this is his costume..

I'm also interested in what happens when I post this, because it should add a second month, and leave an archive up. So far, I'm enjoying this blog thing. More on my article soon.
