Crazy Vids: Guitar Hero Freak of Nature

So I know that there has been a lot of kids like this who can play the Guitar Hero game jsut as good as this kid but it is still amazing. I am still having trouble with the end of Medium levels and this kid could play it on expert in his sleep. I hope that his parents feed him alot of Cheerios because he might have a heart attack soon.

Just saying........

Mega Keg Performance: Matthew Good

This was one of the best shows that I have ever been to. They were great performers live and their music is always amazing. These are two of their better songs.

I also posted some of the pictures I took of them at the show.

Mega Keg Weekend Pictures

Just got back late last night after a very long weekend of complete and utter fun. This was an amazing weekend and Molson did not dissapoint one little bit. Check out some fo the pictures from the weekend.

Keep in mind that we took a two hour ferry ride full of drinks before the actually party that started at 3PM. I think this was actually the most I have ever had in one night EVER.

These are the best photos. Stay tuned for great videos of the performance from Matthew Good.

MEGA KEG COMING SOON: One Week To Go

This is really starting to get exciting. The mege keg party that I won is almost here and I am trying to look online for more information. Just came across this on YouTube and it is a great spot for the mega keg party promotion.

I will be THERE in about one week. More posts to come including after party pictures......

Political Party: Who to Choose?

So the new election is coming up and I have no idea who I want to vote for yet. I have been strongly a one party kind of guy in the past but things have changed. The politicians have not been speaking to anything that I feel is important and the things that are fairly related have way off base of what they should do. It seems like they all want to just say blanket empty statements and not tell us what they will actually do.

Right now, they are all bashing each other which makes for very bad political situations. I really do not think Harper has done that bad of a job but he still scares me when he calls elections like this to try and get a majority even though the house of commons was still working well.

I think the three biggest problems that need to be addressed right now is the economy, the environment and how to bring Canada to the international level that it should be.

Please tell me who to vote for because right now it is a juggling act between these 5 candidates.

Green Planet: Solar Energy for the Home

I am starting to become fairly big on becoming renewable as you may notice and I love the idea of powering your home from things in your backyard. Solar energy has been around for a long time but I think in the next few years the cost of these products are greatly going to decrease. The technology and the amount of people testing out these products are making it more viable for the rest of the masses.

I can't wait until I buy my first home and think about actually installing one. I hear it is harder to get the amount of sun needed since we are in Canada but that you can still get quite a bit for what you pay for.

Look for more intersting Green Ideas in the future.

Isn't there an election coming up? Maybe Green Party will win with all my new posts.

Green Planet: 2007 Chevorlet Volt

I just want to say that who says we can't make a difference on the planet, even the big companies. I saw this car at the Toronto Auto Show last year and I thought I should blog about it. This is not a concept car but rather it is a car that will be released I think by 2010. It is completely an electric vehicle with lots of power running behind it.

I think this is a great way to start the green movement although I think more research needs to be put into other renewable resources for cars. We are still using a lot of energy as consumers and we need to change that mentality.

Other than that, I think this car looks amazing. If you disagree please tell me......

Funny News: Cheech and Chong - Smoke it Up Tour

My dad and I are going to see these guys tonight in Ottawa. I hope that you have heard of them but if you have not you have been living under a rock.

They made some hilarious movies back in the day and they even did stand up earlier. They have now come back from hiding and are starting up in a new tour.

I have attached a couple of pictures and the trailer to one of their movies to help you get pumped about them.

Film Real Review: Death Race

This movie did not dissapoint on the blood, guts and gore that you expected from the previews on TV. Overall the storyline was kind of dull but what do you expect when you have that type of movie.

Overall...good movie and about a 6.6 out of 10.

Film Real Review: Batman Begins

I finally watched Batman Begins this afternoon and it was an amazing movie. I actually can't wait until I see Batman Dark Knight even more now.

The movie depicting how Batman came to be was really engaging and it kept me on my seat. The only thing that I was upset about was that there was not a 'villian' in paticular such as Penguin.
