What I Do.

Posted by Scribbler - July 10th, 2008


-The Hulk sucked. I just finished watching Season 01 & 02 of Dexter on Showtime, (though not all in one sitting,) and it's a great ass show.

-Ordered a MIDI keyboard two weeks ago, and it still hasn't come. I ordered a USB recording interface, that came and I ordered it FIVE DAYS after the MIDI keyboard... Hmmm, I think it may be lost.

-Does anyone actually like the show LOST or HEROES? I haven't watched any of them ('cept for the premiere of LOST when it first came out for the first 20 minutes and thought, hmmm, Jurassic Park?)

-COKE POINTS, COKE POINTS! It's a Battle Royale for COKE POINTS!

-Got a new computer finally, s'drained my account but it was worth it. Vista is not that bad... Actually, it's not bad at all. It's all good.

-It's this time of year that I purchase last year's NCAA and Madden. That's right, NCAA 09 and Madden 09 are coming out but guess what? I just bought the 08 versions!!! And I didn't even pay nearly a 1/5 of retail! Suckers.

-Reading lots. I have read at least 5 books this past month .5 and that is a lot for me. I want to get back into writing but I can't. There is an invisible barrier in the way. :(

-Gotta feed the fish.

-Decided I need a new graphics card for the new computer so I got one. And a new graphics card needs new games!!!!! Crysis, Call of Duty 4, and Orange Box, yezzir!

I don't see how you can compare Lost to Jurassic Park. The only thing similar I can think of between the two is there is pseudo-science shit on an island but things go wrong.

But it's not even that, the show is much more character driven than Jurassic Park. It's a different format entirely. The implied philosophies are stark contrasts of each other as well, where as Jurassic Park had something of a pessimistic penetrating theme of systems collapsing and order never holding because chaos is a dominant force, Lost seems to be focused more on finding balance and consistency in the universe and how a lot of issues can seem radically different from other perspectives. There's a whole lot of dualism, everything seems to have its opposite opposing factor in the show, social structure vs. anarchy, blind faith vs. over-analyzation, control without freedom vs. freedom without safety, and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Whatever, I like it. Check it out.

Well then, imma check out Lost now. Left you a comment btw.
