Any one even remotely associated with me online is more than likely already sick of seeing this song posted.  I wholly intended to only post it once, but then I found this video.  This video (and I’m sure there are many out there who are likely to disagree) is one of the better SNL musical guests I’ve seen in a while, and I think a lot of it’s quality lies in the fact that...

CHARGE SHOT: Diary of a Pokemaniac →
chargeshot: March 6th, 2011 was a good day. It marked the beginning of 2011’s National Glaucoma Week, Junior Anna Ozment was crowned 2011 Laurens County Junior Miss at the Dublin-Laurens County Junior Miss Contest, and finally, Nintendo ushered in the next generation of Pokemon! Black and White, the two…

Work Tips with Mark - Professional Slang
Hello all, welcome to another valuable Work Tip, brought to you by me - Mark! Today we look at an important social tool in any office: professional slang.  Slang is used the world over to say common, everyday things in a way that sounds cooler and thus constantly speaks to the younger generation, but ultimately sounding archaic in the long run.  The joy of Professional slang is that it will...

Work Tips with Mark - E-mail
Today’s Work Tips covers a VERY important aspect of any professional employment: e-mail. E-mail is a fantastic technology, allowing us to exchange ideas and information, and in the workplace, it’s a crucial means of relaying client info, phone numbers of clients, or even send whole documents to your co-workers, bosses, or even those below you (although often you’ll have to...

Updating Highlights magazine for the next...
Dear Highlights magazine, I’ve been a fan of your fine publication for quite some time. So much so that I’ve continued my subscription these past 15 years. However, I’ve noticed a growing flaw in your fine magazine: Highlights has not aged at all! The important life lessons of sharing and consideration for my friends and family are the same. I looked to your informative and thought-provoking...

Had a moment tonight
Well, a few really.  Moments where everything just kinda slowed down for a second and I did the whole cheesy, Wonder Years-esque inner monologue where I examine how I feel and what it means in the bigger picture. It began with a walk to practice in the snow.  Snow is quite possibly my favorite thing ever and as I walked to practice with Jess and Brady, I started thinking about how great it was to...

I don't know...
As I sit here in my bed typing this, wearing my Marvel superheroes T-shirt, playing Pokemon on my DS, humming the lyrics to songs from Rent, and jonesing for a good game of Super Smash Bros., I honestly can’t figure out which part of my life disappoints my parents the most.  Maybe I’ll just get a tattoo. Also, I don’t know why I find this so adorable:...

A tribute to Edward Brandon Greenblat
The first victor of the Mark Hale Jr. Video Game Challenge has been decided, and as per Eddie’s request, here is the SportsCentury recap of the Madden game that rocked the cosmos. Football, a game of men.  And on a cold February afternoon, two men met to test their mettle in what would be a game to be remembered for all time. From the North Campus Division: Eddie “Blat Blat Call yo...

Mark Hale Jr. Video Game Challenge
Alright everybody, the snow day today (and my rising fame) has dangerously provoked my boredom and urge to find a new arena of life to dominate.  Thus, the Mark Hale Jr. Video Game Challenge is born! Here’s how it works: Call/Text/Tweet/Message me a game you want me to destroy you at. Send me your gamertag/friend code or brave the elements and come over. If I own the game (or you do in...

Nightmare
xdunson: brittanybelland: I’ve been having so many nightmares the past two weeks. I think its because I started drinking more caffeine? Last night’s dream was that I was at a school that was being taken over by four “bad guys” and once the bad guys got in the school with their guns and their knives more bad guys came around and circled the school. They captured us and held us hostage in a...

How I imagine Brady received the "sex talk"
“Now son, that’s a lovely sweater by the way, when a man and a woman love each other.  Well, usually a man and a woman, but occasionally an animal or machine.  Well, not like a robot… No, not like a washing mac-… well actually, that one works.  But I digress, when a man and a woman and maybe a, I don’t know, we’ll say pterodactyl love each other they… I...

Is Pokemon Racist?
This could be my favorite thing I’ve seen this week!!! nohomosapien: NO!!!! But THIS disagrees. According to that site, Jynx “clearly denigrates African Americans, particularly black women.” Talk about going out on a limb, this accusation goes out on limb, branch, twig, leaf, and the caterpillar that inhabits it. This web site particularly claims that “The Story of Little Black Sambo”...

A recent discussion with a friend resulted in me finding out more about him than I ever knew: Me (after listening to Jason Mraz’s “Song for a Friend”): Jason Mraz may be one of the most talented musicians of our time.  I’ve yet to hear a song of his that doesn’t instantly click.  They’re all catchy as hell too.  He’s definitely in my top three musicians. ...

I'll say it.
I loved Transformers 2. I thought it was a phenomenal movie for what it was. I truly liked it and Michael Bay’s love for explosions wasn’t a distraction. The characters were sweet and were way cooler than in the first movie. I just miss Jazz… Oh well. Jetfire kicked ass.

Having caught myself up on Nintendo’s press conferences and revealed trailers, 2009-2010 is going to be a FANTASTIC year for gaming. First we get New Super Mario Bros. Wii, which just looks like pure, four-player, caffeinated fun. Then, we get a new Metroid (dubbed “Other M”), as well as hyped sci-fi shooter and Halo rival The Conduit, futuristic RPG Monada: Beginning of the...
