Finally, Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children is here! I got my reserved copy yesterday. The DVD came with a bonus DVD. I sorta checked it out. It was mostly the American side of voice dubbing. The accual movie was kinda cool. The digital animation was very well made. The plot was ok. It had it's moments, but it was.......I don't know how to discribe it. All the original characters are in it: Cloud, Tifa, Barret, Cat Sait, Yuffie, Vincent, Red 13 with some old villians/friends: Rude, Reno, Ellena and Ruffus. With special camio's of Bahamut and Sepheroth. The action it self was awsome. The whole movie was good, music inclued, but the story unfolded a bit separated. As if they were trying to put alot in with out smooth transitions......maybe. I did enjoy it. Saw some of the trailors for the movie, new games that are suppose to come out. Some of them looked more like Anime than games.
I'm very happy that I reserved the game. From what I heard, every store that was selling it were sold out, except for one. Best Buy sold out at about 4 or earlier. Game Stop only had a few copies and mostly had the ones that were reserved. The last store that had any Un-reserved copies was at EB Games on Zaragosa. I know alot of people were after this perticular movie. At least we finaly have it after Several months of waiting. I wonder when it will be restoced.
Oh, the Car thing? Just another can or worm....

In Bad Need of a Beer and 3 thousand Dollars
I do have a few choice words to say to everybody, but they may offend a few people. So, I'm debating on saying them or keeping them to myself. As you all can tell I am not in the best of moods and not at all in good terms with anyone. So, If anyone had done me wrong (no matter how little a thing) stay out of my way because I may degrade you to the point of hurt.
Why am I upset? ......
For alot of thing. Especially when anyone askes: "Are you Mad?" or says "Don't get mad at me." or something like that. The words just really pisses me off. Of course I'm going to be mad! Why ask a stupid question if you already know the dumbass answer....
At the list of things that pissed me off; vehicle problems would be at the top right now. Here's the score. I own two vehicles: 1988 Mustang and a 1991 Chev. S-10. I lived with my parents for most of my life. Every so offten one of their cars would break down and they'd use one of mine. At one point, we had five different cars in our drive way. Let me do some math.... Two of them are mine: mustang and s-10. I also had a company truck from one of my jobs. My mom has her ford and my dad had his Riviera.
Ok. bad mojo happended one night and a drunk driver hit my dad from the back. Dad was fine, but the FRAME of the car had bent. The car was considered totalled. So, from then on, he asked to barrow the Mustang. Feeling that I owed them something, I let him use.
Soon after I had thoughts about giving it to my dad for two reasons. One, he really liked it and two, it gets pricey to keep up the mantinance for two cars. Later, the Mustang developed some problems and required sometime to fix. So, my dad asked to use the truck.
After a while, I got a new job and I gave back the company truck. So, I started to use my truck and my dad stated to use the Mustang. Soon after, the Mustang began to develop problems again. My dad started to use the Corvett (the corvett is my cousin (in-law's) car. He needed a place to put it so no one could steal it in the big city).
I forgot to mention one part. My mom used my truck one day and blew out the engine. We split the cost of it. The truck was not the same truck after a new engine is installed.
Now, my truck had developed some problems. Some I ignored and others just happened.
1. There is a clanging sound coming from the engine. From a trusted friend (who knows his shit) he thinks it needs a new engine. yea I know. "new engine? so soon?" I don't know.....It has water and oil.
2. The muffler has a hole the size of Angdre the Giant's hand. I've been hearing it for a bit of time, but figured I'd do it before the next state inspection.
3. The fucker is leaking oil like a patient bleeds in a dentist office. It started small, but I know I had to replace the part soon. In fact I have the part that I need to get replaced.
4. Had a noise coming from passenger side front wheel. I ended up replaceing the wheel's hub. It was missing some of it's ball bearings and was really loose. It started the friday before Easter.
What else.....?
5. oh yea, Bushings and shocks for the front end.
I do have a plan, althought no one seems to listen.
It has been suggested tha I barrow my Uncle's pick-up untill I get the truck fixed, but I don't want to do that just yet. I want to ressurect the Mustang from it's stationary potion. It'll be faster and cheaper to set the Mustang going than the truck would be.
At the moment, I have things spining in my head and many options open to me. I trully would like a new vehicle, like a Honda Civic.
We'll see what happens...

Quick Fix
Finally, after 40 days, I am able to eat meat when ever I want and Drink soda again! That's the longest I've spent without a soda and it feels good. Especially that first drink of Root Beer. Of all the flavors, that's the one I miss the most.
I finally got all of the items from easy mode on Shadows of Colossus. Now, I want to get all the weapons in hard mode. Halo is in the same place as before. I haven't put real time on it lately. That also gose for Playboy's: The Mansion. I did play a bit of Burn out 3 and remembered how cool the sound track was.
I've finally paid off my first student loan! HIGH TIMES!
As always, there is family chis'me around, but I'll get to that later. "Why can't people put their problems aside..."
Was listening to Coast to Coast AM and Art Bell was on. Wouldn't ya know it, he got himself married and is moveing to the other side of the world! For more about it go to: Coast to Coast AM website. Also on the show, EMV or something like (Ghost voices) it were being disscussed. It's really interesting listening to some of these. I do have to admint, they are kinda scary, but fun to listen to.
Not much has been going on, just rested alot this past weekend. I am tinkering with a screen saver program that I found a while back. It's basicly slide shows with music. The fun part is some of the configurations you can do with the pictures and music of your choice.
I found a website that has the Bome Figures that I've been collecting. Click here to see them. I have four of them and one on it's way. I really like the this sculptur.

What I did on my Day Off
Today is my day off, so I'm just kicking it and doing odds and ends. I finally checked out my truck and decided to get it serviced. There is a weird noise coming the passenger-side front wheel. I think it's a ballbearing or a u-joint. Since my truck is a 4X4, it makes fixing it a little tricky. Yea, I know "a pick-up that's has 4X4?" In any case, I really don't want to mess with it and screw it up. While it's at the mechanic, I'm going to replace the oil cooler lines. What do they do? Here's the jist of it..... regular cars and trucks have the oil filter attached to the engine. My truck has it's oil filter detached and placed on the frame. There are a pair of rubber-metal hoses that oil flows to and from the oil filter. Those hoses are the ones I need to replace. My dad and I would have done it, but we would have to lift the engine. You see, we tryed it once and the One spot that it gets stuck, the hose is metal and the gap between the engine and the frame dose not allow enough space for much movement. I'm hopeing to take it in the next couple of weeks. Parts and labor should not be real expensive. I already ordered the oil lines and they are going to cost $64 bucks. the most should be labor.....I hope.
