Hate is so easy.

Love me for who I am and not what I can give. Love yourself for what you've done and not what you could've. Love those who are deprived of love not those who have more than enough. Let love spread like hate and hate spread like love.

Tattoo that means something.

    If I had a tattoo it would be the word Peace on my right hand and War on my left. I would do that because my left arm is weaker than my right and war is the action of the weak. The stronger person will always find a way to make peace instead of killing his fellow people. I wouldn't do it in foreign writing because a word is powerful no matter what language its written in. That is the kind of tattoo that I would love to have.
    It's hard to understand what people do to themselves and realize the meaning of what they put on their skin. People with tribal tattoos and pictures of celebrities, characters and the infamous barb wire. I just don't understand why people get something that's going to last for a lifetime and will deteriate. Getting a tattoo to me is like trying to figure out what to name a new born baby, you have to give it a name that will define both it and you. That's how important getting a tattoo is.

Hangover Part 3 Review

      The supposed "final" episode of the Hangover franchise was released this weekend and I have to say, I was a little disappointed overall with the final film. While the film did provide a good story and moments of laughter, those moments were few and far between. For those who may not be familar with the franchise, The Hangover is a about a group of friends who get drugged in Vegas and started a chain of events that would lead to characters development and a sequel to Bangkok. This film ties everything in from the first film up to the last minutes of the last film.
       In this film the abnormal Alan played by Zach Galifianakis, hits a new level of insanity and it has apparently taken it's toll on his family and friends. So after agreeing to seek help the wolfpack set off to Arizona but is immediately taken down and sent on a rollercoaster ride of chaos thanks to the actions of a familiar friend, Leslie Chow. Thanks to the actions of the escaped international criminal, Doug is take hostage by a mob boss played by John Goodman and is willing to exchange him for Chow. Now the Wolfpack must travel fast to capture Chow and somehow save Alan's brother in law before it's too late to save Doug and themselves from one man's violent rampage. If you want to know more than you'll have to go and see the movie yourself.
       Now I was a fan of the last two movies so my expectations were high but I also would like to point out the movies rule of three. One of them has to be bad and very rarely are they all good and for me, this was the bad one. I would have to give this movie 6 out of 10 rating because even though there was character development and a plot, for being a comedy I just wasn't laughing as much as I was in the previous films. I sincerely hope anyone who goes and sees it has a good time and enjoys it but I will ask that you don't make the same mistake I did and expect much. I will offer one spoiler, the biggest laugh I got out of the movie was after the credits, shhhh!
        Enjoy the movie and hopefully we will be seeing more Hangover films becuase this is a good franchise. But I think as far as the wolfpack is concerned, it's probably good that it ends now so we can introduce fresher faces and bigger laughs. Until the next is written.

Sample from my ebook, "Madness in a Recession"


Show me Love

You give us shows about

“True Love”

by giving a guy and girl

a few weeks to choose

who they’d love to make out with.

 

That is not love.

Love doesn’t take a few weeks to work

unless it’s something you read or

watch in a movie.

 

Then you show me

the lives of celebrities.

Their marriages don’t last

as is, but when they get on television,

the process just speeds up.

 

You want to give me a show on

“True Love,”

here’s how you do it.

Give me a reality show about two people

who get on each other’s nerves

every moment of the day.

 

Getting into arguments about work, about the house,

about life in general.

Have them ready to go nuts. If, at that point,

they still go to bed together, and they still kiss each other goodnight,

then that’s a show I would love to see on the air.

Head or Heart?

Somebody who listens to their heart sees Beauty and the Beast as a tale about a woman who looks past the monster and falls in love with the man behind the animal. Somebody who listens to their head sees it as a woman suffering the affects of Stockholm sydrome. Which do you use?

Xbox One Revealed Review

   Microsoft revealed the next generation of Xbox with gaming with the newest console, Xbox One. With the Playstation 4 coming out this year and Nintendo's Wii U coming out last year, it was time for Microsoft to come out in a big entrance. From the reveal event, it's clear that the Xbox One will be coming out with a new design for the platform, controller and a new kinect sensor. After the wow factor sunk in and the glamour had worn off, the time came to check out the specs involved with the new system. Now while Microsoft has upgraded a lot of the systems, unfortunately it still lacks some improvements that Sony beats them with.
   While coming with a faster processor and improved new engine graphics, these specs will also be just as good as on the Playstation 4. While the new Xbox will be able to play blu ray which is nothing new to blu ray owners. However the one area that puts the Xbox over Playstation is the Kinect and the new system will have more improved tracking and motion detection to improve gaming. Plus with that better command controlling such as being able to vocally turn your system on and off and faster reaction to commands.
    Other features thanks to the Kinect sensor now makes it possible for you to watch a movie but if a friend calls via skype or you have to check on the internet for anything, just say skype or internet and the Xbox will switch or you can minimize your screen using hand gestures. Xbox has made it possible to virtually do anything with the need for a controller. Another perk to having the Xbox is the fact that all downloadable content will hit Xbox gamers first making Playstation owners very jealous.
    The main event came with the announcement of the games that will be coming out with the new system. With such power houses such Madden, FIFA and Call of Duty; the anticipation was well deserved with amazing designs and attention to the smallest details. During the previews for the EA sports games, the difference between previous games to the newest one coming out was clear with real life atheltic movements like RG3 outrunning the Cowboys or the reaction to UFC fighters getting punched. Plus the war like enivornments of Call of Duty gives the gamers a more realistic world than any other game before.
    The Xbox One looks to be a great impovement to it predecesor and gamers shouldn't be disappointed to pros of the console. No word yet on how much the new console will cost nor if the possibility of playing 360 games. We'll have to wait until possibly the E3 to hear an announcement but I will say that I wish Microsoft the best. Having both a Playstation and a Xbox 360 and each systems have its pros and cons that make them both equally entertaining to have. However Xbox still has it's dark cloud with the infamous Red Rings of Death which crippled xbox for a while by overheating consoles, it seems with the Xbox One we shouldn't have any problem for now.
