Ah, apple pie. God made man. And man made apple pie.

Who can resist the incredible combination of warm, flaky crust mixed with that sweet and gooey apple filling? Even better: how about baked apple pie with a nice, frozen scoop of vanilla ice cream? Nothing beats the "high" you get when you take a bite into it and you feel the immediate clash of hot and cold dancing around your mouth while your taste buds send an explosive barrage of electrical signals to your brain triggering a feeling of satisfaction. I don't know about you, but it's one of MY guilty pleasures in life.

I also like to plop some ice cubes into my hot cocoa and then drink it without hesitation, to get that awesome "high" feeling. If you wait too long, the ice cubes melt, and the melted ice cube saturates with the cocoa and waters it down. So ya gotta drink it right away!

Mixing hot and cold foods is awesome!

Is anyone else like me?

I know most of you don't care, but I'll mention it anyway. I just made an awesome music level in LittleBigPlanet.

So I got my Giant Bomb jacket a couple days ago and this wonderful masterpiece from Snide. Still have no clue what it means, but someone on Giant Bomb must know. I hope you're jealous. :)

Hello, just wanted to warn some of you that I officially stepped down from my moderator position. Does this mean I'm leaving Giant Bomb? No, it just means that I'm not a mod from this day forward. So, why did I do it?

Well, there are two primary reasons. First, I don't have nearly as much free time as I had when I first started my moderator duties. For the past 60 days, I haven't been able to work in the submission queue as long as I would have liked. Hopefully, by stepping down, I can make room for someone more fit for the job.

Secondly, I just want to be a "normal" member. Stepping down gives me the chance to focus more on enjoying the site, rather than sitting in a queue. Finally, I'm normal, and I'm loving every last bit of it!!! :)

And trust me, being a moderator isn't all that fun. I know most of you on Giant Bomb have hopes of becoming a moderator, and that's great. I'm sure there are some of you out there that would make excellent mods. But a lot of you (and I'm sure of it) just want the job to gain "status" on GB, or to become popular, or respected, or.... for whatever reason. Truth is, if you want the position for any reason other than just "helping out GB", then this job isn't for you. To be a mod, you need to have a strong desire to help, you need to be ambitious, and you need to have some good leadership qualities. And let me tell you, once you ARE a mod, it's fun for about a week.... but then you start to realize that there is more to being a mod than the respect or status you gain, and that's when you look at yourself and you start thinking, "Am I really fit for this? Do I really have the will and desire to work at the best of my abilities?"

Also, another thing I want to bring up- the moderators here are a nice bunch. There may be some of you out there that are holding a grudge against a mod or two, or even some that just hate authority in general.... but let me assure you, every single mod on the team is a friendly, normal, hardcore gamer, just like me and you. I've been in the moderator chat, I've been in the moderator forums (there is a super secret section for them, hehe), and I have yet to see any "secret plans" to harass the members here. These guys aren't here to make it tough for you, they're here to help. They don't enjoy banning anyone or locking anything. That would just be plain sick. (Or maybe Gamespot, haha.)

So, with that, this brings this blog entry to a close, and thanks for reading.

Whenever this guy performs, it amazes me. This man inspires me every day and people like him keep me playing the trumpet with the hopes of becoming as great as him.
