APRIL FOOLS DAY!

Okay a bad April Fools joke, but it worked on some of you - LOL!

We have news!

Img_3813 The toothless wonder is going to be an older sister.  She has been on Mark and I lately about wanting a younger brother or sister to push around and we finally have given her - her wish.  She should be expecting this bundle of joy around October.  She thinks the Great Pumpkin is bringing it.  We are doing our part to globally expand the Speckhard empire.

You know you're my Dawg!

Afteramericanidolitstimeforvietnami At last I have found something better than Guitar Hero.  A little gem called American Idol for the Wii.  Not only can I rock the mike (who knew?) but I can bust a move too.  Now - don't let me get all high and mighty here but American Idol rocks.  Well I mean I rock when I play American Idol.  At the end of each song, you get judged.  Gotta love that!  Turns out - I can't sing in tune but Simon loves me, he really, really loves me!

BSG - The Last Season

Let's play catch up! If you are a BSG (Battlestar Galactica) fan than you know how long it has been for the last and final season of the show to air. I can't remember what I had for lunch two days ago let alone remember what has happened in the last 3 seasons of the show. Luckily for us, SciFi figured this out and gave us this great seasons 1-3 catch up clip. Thank you SciFi! Who do you think is the last cyclon to be revealed? My money is on Starbuck!

My i-phone rocks

My i-phone rocks
Sure you have a cool new phone, it's fancy, it's got lots of neat features, but is it the i-phone? Now maybe my expectations were lower than most but for me the i-phone was love at first sight. Not only can I blog better from it, but the photos it takes are just rad. I have my music collection on it and I also store a few movies for those sometimes necessary metro rides. I don't use all the features (heck I can't even get along with the "spelling" auto tool) and I am pretty sure I can do video but have not figured it out. I have become a much better thumb typer then when I first got it. The auto spell is a blessing and a curse. The worst thing about it is the auto lock which makes it very difficult to answer a phone call while driving. I get a log of stares when people see it - believe it - that not everyone has heard or seen the i-phone.  It's Fierce!

Some of life's greatest gifts!

Guitarhero_logo_thumb Yes, my name is The Claw and I am a guitar hero addict!  That's right!  This game rocks and why should you care?  Well, you should care because if there was a career to be made out of Guitar Hero, I would so be there.  I don't play it every day - and I confess - I am still at the "bigger" ah hem, level but that's not the point.  I played "heart shaped box" and "Mother" this weekend and basically I wailed!  Does it matter that I had five years of guitar lessons and can't play a guitar to save my life?  No.  There is nothing more prideful then opening up new songs to jam to.
