Hard Times on a Drunkard

It is no secret that I enjoy going out to the pubs, bars and clubs and having a drink or two or million. It is rough economy out there and I wanted to help out my fellow drunkards who live in Los Angeles. So I challenged Adam and Justin to get me drunk for forty dollars.

We set out last Friday night to a bar called Liquid Kitty in Santa Monica. Adam and Justin didn’t play fair because the first shot was Bacardi 151… that’s just wrong! I was pretty much wrecked but not drunk from there. I got to chase it with a Long Island Iced Tea. So you can say I was done. So yes, you can drink for under $40.

You can pretty much go to any dive bar in LA and do your thang. I really recommend Liquid Kitty because they have some great deals. You can have PBR with pretty much any shot for around $5. Yes PBR isn’t the best but it will efff you up!

Thanks to Adam and Justin for doing this challenge. More kudos to Adam for being the DD. Don’t forget to be smart guys and drink safe, so have a DD! Have a good holiday!

Changes But Not Really…

First of all, Happy Birthday to my sister! I hope you have a good one.

I have changed the sub header of my blog to “A WoW Addict in Denial.” I have scratched the itch again and I am on my way to level 80 and hoping to go into Naxxaramas soon. I am however trying out new things not just sitting in front of my computer. Next week I am going to try soccer with my coworkers, hopefully I don’t make an ass out of myself.

Besides changing my sub header you will notice the ads I am serving on the right hand bar.  We have launched the beta of Technorati Media - Engage ad platform. I encourage my fellow bloggers to check it out and sign up as a publisher if you are interested. It’s our baby here at work. It is our blood, sweat and tears…seriously. I had to put off leveling to help launch this bad boy. That’s how much I’ve put into it.

Oh yah, I forgot to mention I changed my about page too!

Alright. Manny out!

Hello Again

We have released a new product and that is why my blog has been dormant. For the past three weeks I have been working 60-70 hour weeks. Cry more right? I am just glad things have settled down a bit that I took it easy this past weekend.

Friday night Adam cooked us his famous spaghetti and meatballs. Had great conversation along with some great wine. Ended the night playing some Rockband 2. We are actually going to try to beat the game in a timely manner not like the first one.

Saturday, Carrie and I ran errands and picked up some things for the apartment. Had dinner at a Chinese restaurant then watched Role Models. It was filled with a lot of one lines by Sean William Scott. It wasn’t the best movie but it was hilarious and entertaining.

Yesterday Carrie and I went to our first MLS game which happened to be the MLS Cup. We went with Adam and Justin, the tickets were courtesy of John. Thanks John! We were cheering for the New York Red Bulls but unfortunately they lost to Columbus. It was interesting and it made me want to play soccer with the guys after work. MAYBE.

The holiday is coming up. Looking forward to family, eating and friends! I have more time to rant now so keep an eye out for some fresh posts…or something. Whoda OUT!

So start thinking of things because it’s going to be an open discussion. Yes, I will write about your topics!

Just submit them by commenting to this post.

Hello Kitty Online…Big Disappointment

I think I am decent when it comes to MMORPGs. So I signed up to be a beta tester for Hello Kitty Online. I thought it would be funny to try it out along with my other friends to check it out. So far it has been terrible.

It started off bad when the downloader kept crashing so I pulled the torrent for it and downloaded it through torrent. Finally signed on and I had lame quests. I mean the previews looked pretty cool. I could farm my own stuff like Rune Factory but my first couple of quests were dull. One of them was to remind two other NPC (Non Player Characters) to return books to someone else. WTF MATE?!??

Maybe I was expecting too much.

I think I am going to pick up Call of Duty and play with my buddy from our SF office. Or maybe even get sucked into Warhammer Online since Andy and Mel are playing it but they are playing on The Order side. The Order like frigging lame. Destruction looks way much cooler.

Eh, fark it. I think I might just stick to my plan of being outdoors and hanging out with real people more. /shrug

As of late I have been quiet and taken back because of recent events of both my personal and professional lives. You can say I am just tired and hoping to catch my breath so I can make some decisions with where I am going. Alas, as life has it I am not afforded that luxury.

I should however quit QQing because things are exciting, demanding, challenging and fun. It’s time to rise up and rawk eeeeet.

BTW…this is the cutest thing evar.
