Id have netflix baby if i could.

I love netflix, I've had a few problems here and there mostly cause one episode of mc gyver woudn't play on my 360, and the fact some tv seasons would have all the episodes except 2 that would be disc only....But i've never had a problem with their customer service and i wanna have netflix baby now cause of my recent customer service experience.
 
I recently canceled my meijer credit card and forgetting to put a new credit card on the netflix they charged me thus blocking the meijer cancellation so i call them up and I'm like here's the problem i had canceled this card and was wondering could you credit that card so they could cancel it then ill put this new card on here and you guys can charge me for January?  and they did it! they are crediting my meijer card and aren't gonna suspend or put my account on hold till it clears...awesome...

Weird dream and looking up the EX.

Had a weird dream about my Ex Milagros....I've not dreamt of her in a long time...I mean hell i don't think of her that much either i mean your usual thoughts mostly random stuff but that's to be expected after knowing a girl for 3 years +....
 
Looked her up via google the usual name, middle name, last name...ect used her 3 known to me emails got a few hits on one, unsure of what was contained inside was posted...it was a reply or 2 replies to a singles classified she says shes 24 in the comment area..oddly enough i can remember quite a few things but not the exact age of her when we broke up...Its rather weird i all ways sucked with memory on such things mind would vice grip the fuck out of weird stuff but forget other things...oh well whether or not the postings where when we were still together *likely weren't* im happy shes out there trying to find someone says she don't have any kids either....the sites are completely in Spanish *which is a given since she lives in Chile* lol should have learnt Spanish then id know what they say...I've noticed i do a search for info about her once in a blue moon usually turn up nothing... this is the first time i turned up something though...its the first time i believe i used that email.....she was 21 or was it 22 when we broke up? so 24 yeah...lol names and ages i suck at remembering names and ages.
 
As i said once in a blue moon...and the urge to find information about her goes away...but i went ahead and posted this..as my once in a blue moon blog post lol regrets...I have a huge amount of regrets when it comes to her, far more then actual happy memories...regrets that i even began the relationship in the first place...then again I feel that way about most of my past relationships that ended in cheating...which they all did *me being cheated on that is*

MW2 Throat Communicator review

Wanting to check this dealy out, I went to my local gamestop for the Modern Warfare 2 midnight launch and purchased the throat communicator, *as well as the mw2 controller but will review that later*  Its self labeled as collectors edition but really how infinity ward would want to let this product be associated  their games name I can never tell, It is truly a total crap product, It its a styled with MW2 on one of the throat pad mics, and Modern Warfare 2 on the intergrated volume, mute...ect dongle all in grey they are not really stylish * a camo would have been better*.
 
Made by Madcatz *a company with a very iffy timeline of quality control* i can truly say again this a crap product.
 
Sound:the earpiece must be the cheapest mono one they could find joining a private chats usual bing is screechy most sound is screechy making you required to turn the sound down via the volume wheel quite a lot.  the mic doesn't work nearly as well as it should friends, and my own recordings sounded garbled and muted but this may be because...
 
Fit:it is uncomfortable designed for the neck of a 5 year old child it doesn't fit my neck very well and is not adjustable so its sound quality may be because of this, one would think that optimum sound quality in a throat mic would be accomplished by the actual mics *or mic since there only seems to be one upon further inspection* would be that the mic rests on the throat where as on my neck it seems to just barely reach the throat *adjustablity would have been appreciated if you buy this you better not have a wit of neck fat or muscle.*  The single ear peice only comes with one plastic mushroom shaped ear piece no pieces to trade out to see if they fit you, its what seems to be one size fits all but does not accomplish this, it fit in my ear but just barley. 
 
Extended comfort/health warning: as I have said it seems to be designed for the neck of a 5 year old child on my neck it was so tight i noticed a slight headache coming on because the neck wrap was actually putting pressure on the blood vesicles in my neck, suffice to say i had to immediately take it off and rest before said slight headache went away.
 
Dongle functions: the same old stuff is here volume wheel, on off, and mute but oddly enough it is designed wrong. The audio control dongle looks as follows.
off 
|=| mute
on
 
the switch is a notch switch by design push it down to on and it notches, push it to off and it notches but oddly enough the design is wrong since there is no notch for the mute option, On-off no notch in between to lock it into the mute option. Another problem is this...one would assume you slide the switch to on for it to work right? not on my unit one has to slide the switch to the off position, I found this out after about 5 minutes of wondering why can't my friends hear me in the party chat? why can't i hear my own recording in my voice message?
I reiterate one would assume alone that a 3 setting notch switch would have 3 notches on,mute, off but this one has 2 with no abbility but to manually put it center for mute, and again on my copy of the mic the switch had to be on the off  at top instead of on for it to record voice.
 
half star out of 5 stars 
Conclusion: this product is to be avoided it is one of the most badly designed I've seen in a long time, at 29.99 its not worth it your better off getting and official one, or buying a wireless official.
A few edits: I thought i should add some things, namely certain claims on the back of the box claims of comfort, crystal clear communication, and sound quality, as well i've looked all over the package, and the warrenty paper and found no limited neck width numbers, or recommended neck width for use.

ODST,Cigarettes, Ferrero Rocher...and taco bell.

Had Fun the initial Launch night with ODST, played on legendary and beat it with my friend Walter and Joena Balls....*Walter....Karen is hot!*
 
Any ways Now I'm raring to get on ODST again and play some more, I got on Firefight earlier and it was quite fun. Munched on some Tacobell, and Ferrero Rocher....I'm currently trying to figure out how to email my self the pictures i took with my phone at the ODST gamespot launch. I'm all so going to update my pictures of my game collection since i got the Wii again, sold most of my ps1, ps2 and ps3 games, and got new halo 3 action figures and shit. 
 
I just realized that jakob and the game place he works at is in waco,TX I got family there i should go visit them and kidna....Suprise a fellow giantbomber...
 
LoL
Figured out how to upload the ODST pictures of the launch.


I'll add a new blog post later with my new setup and game collection pictures.
P.S: I should add I've been watching Ranma 1/2 recently I'm well into the 3rd season but regreting it since it stopped being good in the 2nd season or so....Its rather old and the plot line is crappy really...
P.P.S: I should all so note i finally got MAG to download and played a bit surfice to say i didn't like what i played though its a beta I hope they fix the sniper weapons which are inanely underpowered. I personally expect 2 shots center mass to take someone down but it seems it takes atleast 4 which when someone is running is near impossible...
 Another note the pictures of the launch are deceptive as i said in a reply in the comments, There are about 60 people at the launch if you notice in 2 of the pictures the door is wide open cause there is a line all the way outside, most of the people in the store were allowed to stay out of line and do instore lines cause we were there since 10:30 pm.

Hey from Clarinda, IA

Just got in last night and crashed pretty hard, it was a long 12 hour drive from 8 am to 8 pm or so to the Super 8 here in Clarinda.
Got a chance to test out the GPS i purchased more thoroughly though no real fights that i would expect from traveling with family in a mini van for 12 or so hours, fucking mini van sucks uncomfortable as hell ass still hurts though that may be the hemorrhoids flaring up from sitting in the same place for so long on such an uncomfy seat but oh well I picked up a orthopedic seat cushion from the Iowa 80 truck stop they did quite a bit of remodeling in there since i was last there.

Right now im waking up and am about to take a shower and go eat my SUPER CONTINENTIEL BREAKFAST downstairs lol.
I'll have pictures from today, Cause i forgot to charge up the fucking digital camera before we left, I all so left my pillow at home thus making for use of the shitty hotel pillows though it didn't matter i was so dog tired that i just went right to sleep, all so the fucking TV like a bitch is one of those Zenith Consierge tv's which has red and yellow connectors but absolutely NO FUCKING way to turn to an Auxilery channel to view whats connected so i cant hook up my Wii i brought with me and continue to hack it fucking host at the front desk was all like sorry we can't replace your tv....what?! but if it was broken you would...damnit. (oh well ill just pick up an RF connector for the wii)

Though i think i may change rooms moms gonna stay with family friends, and ill just have my 2 sisters stay in the room up here and we'll get the nice handicapped room downstairs with its much better tv.
Hate my sister we got in a fight last night cause she whines over every thing.
Smoking a cigarette....thats about it.

That I can't go

I hate the fact i can't go that it only takes place in california there are other large venues in america they should hold it someplace different for once.
Then theres the fact its a big consumer orgy its hard to see all the games cause usually the biggest get the largest play.
