  • Darron J. Schall

    Adding a new peep to my list of fellow Flasherz. Darron J. Schall, who I’ve been desperately trying to help (and failing miserably) on some of his side projects with .NET, Screenweaver, and Flash. I’ve generally been the idea bouncer lately, kind of like what I do with John Robinson, and he’s also picked up my slack on Flashn00bz if I leave out a programmtic detail (since there are a lot of hardcore programmers there, too).

    Currently, he’s got one of his Flash projects getting posted soon (spam him to force him to post it quicker), FlashStickies. He’s got others, but like me, he makes stuff only to learn a crapload and wish you could start over. I’ve encouraged him to post his works because I think others can learn through his trials (like I post my stuff).

    Good Lord… it’s scary when your gf knows more about a game than you.

  • Respect Again

    There was a time when I would ride the bus home with my fellow peers chanting, “New Kids Suck!”. We would do this for 10 minutes at a time. Later, in school, we’d make fun of any pop star as the early 90’s was full of them, and there were no shortage of targets. Pop culture was a dangerous world combined with middle and high school; you had to wade through the bs, grab hold of someone you thought was cool, and prayed to God they weren’t in the media for something that would damage their rep… only way to survive in school.

    This carried on into adulthood. A lot of pop music made me sick, specially the processed boy bands.

    Then one day, my ex-manager took me upstairs and showed me this DVD he had of N’Sync in concert. Justin Timberlake came on stage, and started beatboxing with this drummer. All he had was his mouth, his moves, and a stadium full of jailbait. He broke it the %&#$ down. At that moment, I had mad respect for Mr. Timberlake.

    I missed the MTV Movie Awards this year, but courtesy of my man Alex from work, I saw this, and respect was gained again.

  • Freddy vs. Jason: Place Your Bets

    Speaking of demons killing eachother, who do you think’s gonna win? My first instinct was Freddy as he, by the previews, is portrayed as the antoganist / protaganist… but that’s just because Jason never says anything. Still, the chick did say go to Hell, and appeared to be referring to Jason, but I still think Jason will win.

    I can’t wait to see this movie…
