"An Army Of Untrained Men, Is One Being Sent To Their Deaths In Battle"

Okay now, Rome Total War, I gave a introduction into my newest form of degreading myself even more...

The game is one of the best ive played in a long time, this year will be one of the biggest for gaming might I add. Doom 3, hmmm it was a good game, one the better ive played in a long time, but, Rome Total War does better where Doom 3 did great. The actual way of having the player being imersed into the game beyond thought and reason. If you like strategy games, both in the genre of Civilaizations and War Craft, i suggest, nay I COMMAND, for you to pick up this game! If you like the ancient World such as the Romans, The Greeks, The Macedonians, The Persians, The Egyptians, The Carthiginians, The Gauls, The Brittaina Tribes and The Germanic Tribes to pick up this game! If you liked the movie "Gladiator" or "Troy" or looking foward to "Alexander" pick up this game! I will try to aquire some funny photos and do something along the lines of the comics i did earlier.

Okay im gonna be off now doing my gaming thing

"And Go Forth Now, Conquer For My Family, Conquer For Yours, But In All, Conquer For Rome!"

Cant... Stop it... The End... Is nigh!


Well then end of My... err me. Yesterday I picked up all the glory that is Rome Total War. The game, is beyond that of the qualities of one that deserves every waking moment of my life. I suggest anyone, ANYONE, who ever played Star Craft or War Craft or Civilaizations, because Rome Total War incompisis all of those games in a tight Ancient World, glory of Rome, Fashion.
Okay ill update and explain more what i mean later, i have to finish up my home work

I Could Hear Your Love Blood Screaming Out My Name!!!

Well then after that ridiculous title lets get down to business... or there lack of.

Well here we are, the lovely grandeous FRIDAY. Okay its not that great but who cares. Recap of the week. Well not much to recap, pretty standard week of high School. No big events, only a few worth mentioning.... Well that was weird, I left school with a giant head ache, as if some huge pituitary gland just went AWOL and decided to enlarge to the side of a grapefruit, but now, if you can tell by my writing, i am in a pretty good mood. I am going to a play only for my grade cause my current grade in Lit is "American Authors" category and the play is "Of Mice and Men." When i first heard about it i was sitting in Lit, talking to Jess, and all of the sudden theres this squat little woman talking about the play. And without even being able to look to Jess it was automatic... "Hey Keith, come on lets go, it will be fun, get us out of school." Well here we are, that was on monday, the hand in to go to it was on wensday, and now i am in the ominous scilence before a great war... ahem play. Well i suppose it should be fun. Get to hang out with Jess for a few hours. I only get to really talk to her for a few minutes a day because even though we were sitting close enough for each other to talk, we have now new seats and i am now far away heh. So yes only a few minutes. Well either way here we have it, the end of my post. Wasnt it just thrilling?

Okay this is your crew master, Keith, i hope you enjoyed you trip, please remember to bring all baggage that you brought on board off with you and have a wonderfull day at the great world of Keith.

First update in a long time

Well then, who would think that school takes up so much time. Ive been exhausted for a pretty long time from it. Damn you school. Okay well heres some updates in my life for ya.

Okay ive gotten back heavly into drums, ive had them for about a year but i havent had any realy time to really practice them cause ive had other stuff and I really didnt know any techniques. Well either way I'm finally really getting into them. I currently have a ArtStar II drumset. I swear even though for its gigantic size, its one of the best sounding drumsets ive ever heard. I used to have Remo Pinstripe heads on my toms and I am now sad that I had them on for so long. Pinstripe heads from Remo are 2 ply heads, and inbetween them they have this liquid substance. Now then, these heads are quite nice if your going for the very "dud" effect every time you hit a tom. Now with these coated 1 ply Aquarian heads and having them on for a few days, if I do say so myself the toms havent sound better. They really go "doooooooo" they sound so nice. On the flip sides of them except for my floor tom, i have remo ebony heads. Well then im looking into a new snare cause one didnt come with mine. I did however come across a ArtStar snare thats 8x14. I hope I do aqurie it, nay, I must aqurie it.

Okay well my regular math/lit/history/science classes are pretty standard. I do wish my history, science, and lit classes were a bit better. I really dont like math so I allready have a dull outlook on it. My history class could be better, as could my lit. My science one is quite allright, the teacher is very nice and helpfull.

Now then we come to one of my favorite class's. Art History. Now some of you might go, "what the hell is he thinking?" Well Art History is one of the best classes because Mr. Don Malko teaches it. He is one of the best instructors, one of the best thought provoking, and all around best human ive really met. He asks the correct questions to really make you think about the important questions. We could look at a picture and he will actually take the picture from a 2d canvas or 3d sculpture or what ever the art is and actually give it another demension, the demension of thought in your mind.

Okay then I best be off and finish up some things and start my homework, I have 2 papers, 5 page packet, and some math homework to start up.

A Farewell To Arms... eh Summer...

Here we are, the end. School is tommorow and here we have it. Oh well, my right wrist hurts from using my mouse too much, too much video games. This was a good summer, i spent my time pretty well. Doom 3 came out, picked it up. All in all pretty good. I went down to the Outer Banks, North Carolina. That was fun. Oh well, here we are. Dreadin the eternity of every minute closer i come to the finish of my summer vacation. Summer 2004, we Salute You!

The Specialists

Well id also like to start a new trend, hopefully that can be updated every Tuesday and Thursday. Id like to take The Specialists for a couple of weeks, take screenshots make funny comments and such, till i can find a way to make a good kind of comic using what ever other video game I can think of that i have. So yeah, if you have half-life and want to help me make a cartoon type dealy, very much in the same spirit of Red vs Blue, drop me a line, anywho the first The Specialists comic. Its dull, i know but hey i wanted it to get out there before i change my mind or totally forget.


Hold the Elevator you damn dirty ape!

It Has Come to my Attention...

It has come to my attention that freinds of mine, when they see me on AIM assume that im their. I dont know why they assume this. For the record i am ussually on my computer yes, but i do stray away from it from time to time heh, and when I do, i leave it on. So i shut down what ever program i was using while i was in front of it, then leave it at the desktop, with AIM running along with Nortan and my WI-FI setup. So if i do not answer you through my AIM when you give me a message, dont take it as if im at the computer reading your message and laughing my evil laugh. Thank you that will be all

The Second arrival... In One day...

Well im up, i should be finishing off my "Summer Reading Project" but alas as everything with me, im putting it off. Thought id just start rambling... ramblin man! Anywho, I must say the Tribes Vengance Open Beta is sucking away my life force... who would think that Old School Tribes would be fun again just being on the Unreal 2 engine. Something i must comment on though, they didnt optimize it any differently for when they used the Unreal 2 engine on UT2004, looks identical. Which reminds me of Unreal Technology.

I suggest anyone whos intrested in gaming/technology to check out Unrealtechnology.com for one reason, to see the screen shots and read up on the up comming Unreal 3 engine. If you think Doom 3 looks good, you aint seen nothing yet folks. I do hope the Unreal 3 engine gets used as much as their current Unreal 2 engine because games with those graphics are supreme technological achievements. The Unreal 3 engine should be used for games comming 2006 on all consoles and the PC. Consoles as in the next next gen, after all this PS2, Game Cube, Xbox stuffola.

With school starting on wensday im dreading it worse and worse with each passing minute. It should be fun this year, US History 1, which should be a blast! I do love history if i say so myself. Cant wait till we reach US 2 though and start up the flaming forest that was the big one... WW2. I have some classes with freinds which is always a plus. I must say though my school is very weird. We start at 7:20 AM and we actually have first period first before home room, as if there expecting us to be late as always to first period.

Well signing off here is the the ramblin man, Keith.

The Start of it All

Well heres the start of it all.... um... Welcome... i think...


Okay, well I am Keith. I live off in the... ahem Garden State, though you may think its bad.... you would be right. Anywho, currently attending HighSchool.

The music I am keen too would have to be Classic Rock, from about '65 to about 1989. The only music i do listen too from my era i suppose would be the outstanding guitarists, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, and Yngwie Malmsteen. If you like the guitar and love listening too it I suggest you invest into some of these guys CD's. Steve Vai's "Elusive Light & Sound" album is very very good. Joe Satriani's album "Is There Love in Space?" is also a very outstanding album.

Things to occupy my time when im not pressured with the hell that is school is mainly video game related, computer related, and movie related. I am very into video games, even help make some modifications to some in my past.

Well i suppose thats it for now untill I can think of some other stuff, i just hope i remember to update my blog often, that way... um it will be cool?
