Just joined gamespot a few days ago. It's pretty cool finally being in a place where I can talk nonstop about video games without feeling like a nerd. (August 5, 2005)

  8th Anniversary of Columbine

  As I write this, it is the 8th anniversary of the Columbine High School massacre.  On April 20, 1999, 18-year-old Eric Harris and 17-year-old Dylan Klebold carried out the worst high school shooting in American history, killing 12 classmates and one teacher, and wounding 24 others before committing suicide.
  
  Since the Columbine massacre, school systems around the county have worked to prevent futher school violence, but sadly Columbine was not the last of deadly school shootings thus far, as proven by the rampage at Virginia Tech last Monday.
  
  I'm writing this blog post to show my respect for the lives lost both at Columbine and at Virginia Tech, and you can do the same by posting below.
  
  While you're at it, be sure to check out this website: Rachel's Challenge
  This site is dedicated to the Columbine victim Rachel Joy Scott, who was singled out on the day of the shooting for being Christian.  Christian or not, you should take a look at the site and learn more about Rachel and her message of peace.

  I can't wait until May

  
  
  The first two weeks of May are going to be freaking movie heaven for me.  First off, Spiderman 3 is coming out on May 4. The Spiderman movies are what I consider to be the greatest comic-to-movie adaptations...screw it...the greatest anything-to-anything adaptation ever.  I'll be at the midnight showing of that, gauranteed.
  
  What just recently had me excited was the trailer of 28 Weeks Later, which I saw last Saturday when I went to see the craptastic film Pathfinder. (Sad when the previews are better than the movie.)  Anyway, 28 Days Later is one of my favorite horror movies, and now I get to see its sequel alongside what is likely to be my favorite movie of 2007.

  GAAAAH, I can't wait.  You know I'm excited when I get on Gamespot and begin ranting about movies like a little girl.  Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to watch the 28WL trailer again.

  It's...so...

  SEXY.  (http://www.gamespot.com/features/6168148/index.html?tag=topslot;title;1&om_act=convert&om_clk=topslot)

  That's all I have to say about that one.  I know a lot of Sony fans are going to be pissed beyond belief about this, but it's beautiful.  Makes not having one that much more painful for me.  (Especially since my best friend owned one for a brief time.)

  Anyway, say what you will about it.  I'm off to System Wars...wouldn't want to miss out on that.
