Ferrari Formula 1 World Champions 2007

In arguably the most exciting race of the season the Formula One World Championship was decided in favor of my favorite Ferrari! Taking the crown in style with a Ferrari 1-2 finish, Kimi Raikkonen pulled it off against all odds, being the least likely to take the title going into the race.

I was this close to rushing to the store to buy a Ferrari flag, but we didn't have time as we had to rush off to Leah's parents' place... Too bad, I kinda wanted to be an obnoxious sports fan for once, and drive around town flying the flag and honking horns and stuff :D

So happy!

Of course that's not all, but that's all you get for now, gotta run!

Update - metal, jamming, recording

I've been in a very musical mood lately, which is awesome for me, cause that finally pushes myself to get my ass in gear and record some tracks!

Me and a couple guys from work have been jamming on and off for the past couple months, and we've written a few songs already. The most recent one is the best so far, so I'm trying to record it at home as best as I can, making my first drum track myself (I am a very shitty drummer, but software makes it easier :P ), recording many guitar parts... you now the drill...

Not only that, but I'm seeing Arch Enemy and Machine Head in two weeks, I get the new Arch Enemy album on my doorstep a day or so before the show, so I'm stoked! Soilwork, Exodus, Overkill, Death Angel, Testament, Metallica, Himsa, and another band I hadn't heard of before: Sonic Syndicate, all have new albums coming out that I have to own, so the next few months are going to be filled with molten piles of heavy metal! hahahaha cheeeeesy

And yes, Death Angel are in the studio and should complete recording end of October, and finish mixing end of November, can't wait mannn

Oh, PS, last time I checked I was no. 19 on the PSN world (NA?) rankings in Gran Turismo HD Concept!

PS3

Told you I would update you guys... Yes it's true! I just bought a PlayStation 3! And before you start flaming me about how few games are out on PS3 and how expensive it is, main reason for purchase was: Blu-Ray movies!

You see, we've had a nice HDTV for almost a year now, but don't have any high def content to view on it, so decided to make the plunge. Since Blu-Ray seems to be winning the format war, and if all else fails, at least I still have a high-end gaming system to play with ;)

Anyway, so of course I had to pick up the movie 300 - man, that movie is awesome, and man do I sound like a stereotypical PS3 buyer - and watch the first few minutes of it... WOW, blew me away, the detail, the quality... amazing!

Why didn't I watch the whole movie? We just came back from the brand new Rob Zombie - Halloween remake, and damn, that was a pretty cool movie. True to the old school as far as I'm concerned. Well worth watching!

EtL GfX - offline!

I had to switch hosting providers, and am currently in the process of upgrading my home grown website framework.

Many apologies for the inconvenience!

It's going to be pretty awesome, but it's going to take me about another month to complete. I will be posting a few little tidbits here in the meantime, so stay tuned!
