Going Places

I have to post more, I have much less creativity now that i have been playing World of Warcraft for so long. Things are looking up though as I am trying to get back into college. I met a guy at a club we messed around a bit in his car and my iPod fell out of my pocket. We were in there for a while and my friend went looking for me. My friends needed to take someone to get their things from their landlord.
They were in a hurry and in the confusion I left my iPod in his car. I never lose an Apple product! Each Apple product has its own beauty in my eyes. They are sacred to me. Thankfully, I have good friends. My best girlfriend knows my passion for the fruit-tastic electronics and is bringing me back my iPod very soon. I have invited her over for Halloween on short notice but she is very whimsical so I may get it back tomorrow. If I can't get it tomorrow I can get it on Monday.
School starts next month and i have yet to receive a call back from the Art Institute. On Monday I'm going up there and finding the crazy bitch in charge of re-entry. Excuse the rage but she is never at her desk. I have tried repeatedly to get a hold of her and I have had no success whatsoever!
Tomorrow is Halloween and that means three things. First thing is of course weird looking kids that want candy. In a weird enough costume you may be able to scare them away and keep the candy for yourself. Which brings me to the second thing Adults watching movies and being disturbed every five minutes by "candy beggars". If i can't watch my Mega Monster Movie Marathon in peace I will not be happy. The third thing of course is movies, the kind that disturb you and make you cringe.
        There are also the funny B movies that I will be watching:


These are only the best of the best in B horror movies,  I will watch plenty of others tomorrow

•However you do Halloween be sure to watch a horror flick. Otherwise, you are doing it wrong!

Is World of Warcraft Getting Attacked?

Oh Blizzard, you may have 12 million players but they are not happy. As I played WOW today my computer repeatedly disconnected. I have checked my pings and apparently I am getting denial of service attacks by playing World of  Warcraft. I believe blizzard is being attacked.
If my theory is accurate then some irate gamer has decided to confront Blizzard in a nasty way.  It hasn't even been a full day since the patch that has put off so many WOW veterans. Nerfing so many spells and talents (Nerfing: dampening for user or gamer experience) can put off the most loyal gamers. Blizzard just reached a milestone in players if they lose that they are more likely to alter the game so that it is similar to how it used to be. Blizzard may in fact be the victim of a full frontal assault from a hacker or group of hackers.
The attack if I am correct would be sending a pings to blizzard and their players rapidly to make playing the game near impossible. This would put off more and more players. Eventually their player count would decrease and people would unsubscribe. Blizzard cant have that happen. They need that milestone for the release of Cataclysm. If Blizzard does have an attack being put through then they need to take care of it and announce that they were attacked. They need to get the feedback and change the game to suit the veterans more and still be noob-friendly. They cannot prioritize one over the other. The changes in the patch were far too drastic and Blizzard will lose players that have played  since the beta of the original game. If they do not change things in a way that pleases all players then World of Warcraft will be doomed to the demise that Sony caused Star Wars: Galaxies.
