03-10-2010 Doritos Burn + Pepsi Cease Fire

Burn / Cease Fire

A cross promotion of epic proportions was launched by Pepsi and sister company Doritos. Initially fabled to involve magic chemistry causing a spicy heat from the Doritos "Burn" that could only be cooled with the anti-chemical in Pepsi "Cease Fire," I was sufficiently intrigued to give it a try. Finding the products involved a search of no less than 4 drug stores, 2 grocery stores, and several retail outlets. Having finally secured the 2nd degree chips (1st and 3rd were nowhere to be found) and a 2 liter of the Pepsi, I was disappointed to discover while the "burn" was intense, the "cease fire" only cooled it for a few seconds before it returned full strength. There is no magical chemical interaction, just your standard marketing gimmick. Disappointed and ashamed, I finished the bag of chips to let the pain keep me from crying.

WTF? This is for real?
Scheezo - 5/5

So let me get this straight? They take diet Pepsi add a lime flavor to it, call it an extinguisher to another one of their products which they made 3 classes but only made 1 of which is readily available and tada you have a great marketing idea that was encouraged by some jalapeno's & a lime? Can we eat a whole bag go to the ER and sue Pepsi for tongue damages?
Stavos - 1/5

Brad will eat a whole bag of anything at least once.
MorlockPrime - 3/5

... and a teabag at least twice... badum-bum

03-07-2010 Spring has Sprung!

Cougar is Free!

A sunny 55.9° day is all it takes for me to risk angering the Michigan weather gods and declare spring officially here. My 11 year old "summer" car, which most would now consider their clunker, is free of the barn and gathering the remaining salt dust from the roads to accelerate the rusting process. I credit the 4th straight day of sun for my bold defiance of this forsaken land, which will undoubtedly summon a freak snowstorm to trap my symbol of summer and crush my spirit in revenge. Until then I'm free, proud, and on my way to Sonic!

I'll buy that car for $2,999 no less! As long as it's never evaded cops that is.
Stavos - 5/5

Even better, for free I'll drive the cougay off a cliff.
MorlockPrime - 3/5

Sigh.. wish I was there taking mine out too. Pet mine for me next time you're in the garage. I haven't even seen the damn thing since October!!!!
Excelcier - 3/5

Wait, ron's cougay is in brad's garage?!?!?! Stavos, get the blow torch and meet me on salisbury street!
MorlockPrime - 3/5

Nice... yup, FYI news flash... it lives in Brad's garage every winter! I even resisted the urge to go hump it during the LAN party. haha Still trying to see each winter if mine and Brad's will procreate together. So far, no luck.. need better fertility lube.
Excelcier - 3/5

Blow torch + Salisbury st+ cougar hibernating??? Sounds like a good old fashion BBQ to me! I'll bring the Sweet baby rays!

Don't forget the marshmellows!

03-05-2010 Battlefield: Bad Company 2

Battlefield: Bad Company 2

After seeing all the videos of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, I was in the excitement level that usually comes back to bite me when the game doesn't live up to my dreams. Fortunately, this was not so for BF:BC2 as both the campaign and multiplayer exceeded my lofty expectations. Unlike Modern Warfare 2, BF:BC2 actually rewards you to play as a team with squad bonuses. The different classes are complementary and having one of each in a squad almost guarantees you'll do well. This is especially true if Myrn, Tiger or TomTom are online and I can make overt homosexual references to help motivate everyone. You'll notice I left out Stavos who thinks IRL moving is more important.

I hear the MW2 people are complaining because it's to hard and realistic, and you have to actually compensate for phsyics when shooting long distances. In that case i'm game and selling my MW2!
Stavos - 5/5

Sounds like another great game I don't have enough time to play.
MorlockPrime - 3/5

I'm still stuck on Borderlands and not cool enough for that game.

02-21-2010 Lisa Can Crochet

This is Crochet!

After almost a month of no updates, I decided to break the silence with the news that Lisa is now handy with a crochet needle. Having mastered the pot holder, she's moved on to hats which are proving more complicated than she anticipated. I'm giving her a few more days to get it right before I clamp down and set production goals. While the hats have higher profit margin, the pot holders are faster to make, so the quantity may make up for it. Moving her to a windowless room will also make it easier to get 16 hour workdays out of her as the passage of time will become indistinguishable.

I need both hats and potholders. Please provide status updates as well as shipping tracking items on both.
MorlockPrime - 3/5

Do you offer international shipping?
Marco - 4/5

What if you tie several potholders together to form a hat? Infact the pot holder shape can be the basic building block for any material. Some examples: Blankets, hammocks, pants etc.
Stavos - 5/5

Oh silly Stavos, who wears pants?
MorlockPrime - 3/5

So Brad has turned Lisa's sick days into work days..

01-30-2010 Jan LAN 2010

Jan LAN 2010

At the bequest of Senator Kelley and Excelcier, another Jan LAN was proposed. Expecting only 4 people for a modest Starcraft match, it turned into a 12 person event with 10 concurrent players. My lack of planning left us with only FarCry, FarCry 2 and UT2K3 as game options, but it still managed to entertain. Both the Morlocks woman and Lisas mom got to experience a LAN party for the first time, scarring them permanently. The timelapse from the Gnome Cam and event photos are posted.

Don't forget the amazing amount of food supplied by your mother in-law and Lisa. That made all us nerds a bit more unattractive and bloated.
Stavos - 3/5

I think that's the key of LANs... lack of planning. Your planning of the last LAN resulted in the inability to retrieve games!
Marco - 5/5

Although one of the best Lan parties consisted of just 3 of us... but this was fun. I hope it doesn't truly mark the end of the LAN parties.. sniff
Excelcier - 3/5

Erin is reported as saying, "I can't wait to play more LAN games!"
MorlockPrime - 3/5

I had a great time, even though i bitched about FarCry 2 most of the time. Really, I just suck at that game and waiting 20 seconds to respawn every time Marco pwn3d just twisted the knife.
Duane - 4/5

I was scared that the Tigerbomb would punch me.
Stavos - 5/5

Belch... this place is echoing...
Excelcier - 3/5

I feel so deprived of stories about brad!
