Even with Computer Generated Women I can't win

There is this game out for the Playstation 2 called Lifeline. Its an unique game where you use a headset to tell the main character, (her name is Rio) what to do. Now apparently there have been some reports of problems with the voice recognition software and the game becomes hard to play.

Now I've watched people play this game and I gave it some thought and then it hit it. There is nothing wrong with the software, its her its Rio that giving everyone grief . She's doing it deliberately because she doesn't like being told what to do and she's give you attitude in return. Think about it, everyone guy who plays this things ends up frustrated and annoyed, just like an argument with your girlfriend. I swear, the virtual girl is pissed and she's only claiming to not understand. If it something you don't think is important, then she understands, if its important, she starts running in circles. YES SHE HAS ONE GOAL, TO MAKE GUYS NUTS !!! Just like a real woman. She even has a manual and I still don't understand her !!! I now believe that I'm destined to walk the earth, never to understand women. I need some divine intervention here.

One day Jessica Karr will a household name

Yes one day, Jessica Karr will be accepting an Oscar for best actress and then she will look at her humble beginnings.

Now everyone is wondering who the heck is this person, I've never heard of her. Well I'll tell you, from what I saw in Bad Boys II, she has potential, actually she might not but she has something.

Like I said, she's an actress who was in Bad Boys II(2003), staring Martin Lawrence and Will Smith. She only had a small role, and she was only in one scene but she definitely made an impression on a lot of people out there. OK now everyone is wondering what role did she play? Well if you haven't seen the movie then this won't make too much sense but if you did, then you'll love this.

Remember the scene when Will and Martin are searching the Morgue and Will pulls back a sheet to reveal a corpse of a young woman with the"big titties". Well she was the corpse. If was her they were looking at when Martin told will to "show respect and cover the big titties".

Now I don't know how things work in Hollywood but you have to wonder how her agent got her this job. Did he read about it or did some call him asking if he had a young girl with large breasts available to play a corpse?

I also wonder how the director gave directions to young Jessica. "OK, here's your motivation, your a corpse, you lay on the table there and do nothing and Will Smith and Martin Lawrence will stare at your breasts and talk about them."

OK I know that it can be difficult to get real a real acting job but you have to wonder if Jessica called all her family and friends to see her "act" in a movie only to see her play a dead woman with exposed breasts.

Anyway despite the sarcasm I've displayed today, I do wish Jessica success in her career and I hope that one day, she will get to play a live person.

I like Barry Manilow. Now stop laughing

Yes its confession time here once again. I like Barry Manilow; as well as Eminem, Linkin Park and Evanescence. Now some of you might be wondering how the hell can I like all these different types of music? Well its simple, I don't bother to dislike something because its may not be "en vogue" ,"hip", or even trendy. When it comes to music I hate Britney, Christina and all those damn boy bands, because their music wasn't written, it was manufactured.

Why is it that once someone in the entertainment industry comes up with a new and innovative idea that everyone has to copy to death until the golden goose is dead. There are so many crime drama shows for example and a lot of them have the same damn name. Law and Order, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, Law and Order, Parking Attendant. How about CSI, CSI Miami, CSI New York and how about CSI Duluth. I mean I remember when TV shows all had different names?

I guess one reason I like Barry so much is that his songs are a part of him. They were written by him and not a Marketing firm.

Actually I do like Barry, sometimes I'm not interested in rock or whatever and I want to hear something different and Barry always come through for me, from Mandy to American Bandstand to Could it be Magic, I like Barry Manilow. So until they start using Barry tunes for commercial jingles, I'll keep on listening.

Blobs Blogs Blogs. My thoughts travel through cyberspace.

Ok, I’ve had this blog up for a little while and I’m happy with my work here. I’ve managed to come up with something semi interesting to write about every day. I’ve even have future topics planed for days I can’t think of anything, thought everyone should dread the day I’m forced to do the Cookie Monster song.

I recently put a counter on the site to see if people were actually visiting my site and to my surprise I am getting hits.

Then there are the few people who were kind enough to leave comments on my entries. There were friends who I told about my site but also people who I’d never met. To them I say thank you. Thank you Vicky from the U.K(She called me sweets ,BLUSH). Thank you Musophrenia, also from the UK. Thank you Doug from Vancouver (Hey a fellow Canadian). Thank you Diwakar though I don’t know where you’re from. Thank you Brenda, I do miss you, and thank you LdyPayne, though sometimes I’m convinced that you’re not happy unless I’m annoyed ;). Oh and thank you to everyone else who just managed to drop by. Oh and to everyone (except Brenda) I enjoyed your blogs as well. (Brenda doesn’t have a blog, though I hope that she creates one someday).

Now most of our blogs have that interesting little button on the upper right above the title bar called NEXT BLOG. I believe that many of you found my blog through that little button and I personally think that button is the greatest extra with Blogger, not only do I get to share my thoughts with the world. I also get the opportunity to see what other peoples lives are like all around the world.

Just as I share my thoughts with others, they are sharing their thoughts with me and I feel privileged to have the opportunity. I get to peek at the lives of people living in Mexico, Australia, the U.K, Singapore, and other places. I’ve seen blogs written in different languages and even different alphabets. I have seen blogs in Arabic script and Chinese characters. We are from so many different places and have different views but we all have at least one thing in common. We want to share our thoughts with others through the internet.

To everyone who reads these words, I say thank you and I hope that one day I will have the opportunity to read your scribed thoughts as well.

Oh and Vicky, Thanks for putting my blog in your favs list. I promise to keep this blog going at this level for quite awhile. I tend to think too much anyway. I also enjoyed reading your blog

I want to be "The Apprentice"

Ok its time for the second season of The Apprentice. I know there are so many reality shows out there that it gets to the point that they become redundant like who wants to marry a millionaire, who wants to be a model or have some Amish kids liking with some spoiled brats in Los Angeles but I have to admit, I love The Apprentice.

For surfers from overseas or have never heard of the show I’ll explain You get 18 people competing in what is being called a 15 week job interview to run one of Donald Trump’s companies. Now these people are all qualified and are competing with each other so at some point it becomes cutthroat.

Anyway I messed the first episode last week (NO!!!!) but they reaired it on Saturday when I did catch it and let me say. I’m looking forward to see how this pans out.

You know it’s too bad that a Canadian can’t be on the show (all contestants have to be U.S. residents) because I know I could kick ass there. I would be leading my teammates to victory over and over again until we got to the point when Mr. Trump says to me, “Your Hired”. Yeah and then I woke up. Well I do know that I wouldn’t be the first person fired. That would really suck.

Actually if I could be on a reality show other than The Apprentice, it would be The Amazing Race. A race around the world sounds great. I’m also hooked into that show as well, but that’s really it. I don’t watch Big Brother or Survivor or any other one. (Ok I watch Amish in the City, there’s something interesting about culture shock to me). Well for now, I guess there’s no reality show called, “Guy Working on His Blog”. Well I guess we can hope.
