Angry Birds is an extremely addictive iPhone game
Angry birds is the newest game I play on my iPhone all the time. It’s simple to pick up and play but hard to master, which means anyone can get in on it and spend hours fiddling around.
the idea is this: you fling birds via a giant slingshot in to buildings in order to crush the enemies inside. Just as nature intended species to battle it out.
As someone who spends way too much time on their iPhone playing games, this game has one of the best features in it which is that you can start playing it almost immediately whenever you click the app icon. It starts up without a hiccup and before you know it you’re launching birds headfirst in to concrete barriers.
Check it out on iTunes becasue it’s only ¢99, that’s CRAZY!
ESPN on the Xbox looks really good, can’t wait to check it out on Nov. 10th!
I don’t use my Xbox as much as I should, but I do have one and I do appreciate the addition of feautures like Netflix, Hulu, Facebook and Twitter and the not-yet-available ESPN. The Xbox seems like with all of these feature they will really be able to become something more than just a video game console. The ability to have a live game NBA game going and watch it with friends across the country is something that we can’t even do with TV’s yet, it’s going to be a trip!
If they keep this up (and come out with some smaller controllers) I might just find myself on there a little more often.
The Fall update for the Xbox Dashboard is coming out on November 10th.

Matt Diaz takes out a field crasher in a jump suit
Say what you want about the state of Baseball today, but this is one heroic move by Atlanta Braves Left Fielder Matt Diaz.
When a fan rushes the field, you really only have two options as a ballplayer. You can either chill out and let the kook run it out of his system until security tazes him, or you take things in to your own hands like Matt Diaz here.
It kind of makes you think about Hank Aaron hitting #715 and getting patted on the back by those two fans on the field, if Hank wailed on those guys with some brass knuckles.
Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart are having Rallies in Washington D.C.
Jon Stewart and his “rival” Stephen Colbert are holding battling Rallies in Washington D.C. this coming October 30th. Political views aside, you have to admit that it’s pretty hilarious that the best response that these two have to the recent Glenn Beck rally is to throw their own.
Each personality appeared on the other’s program to spread the word about the October 30th Rally(ies?). The only question is whether or not the events will be portrayed as separate things of if the two of them will join forces to form on giant, mega-super Rally. Both of the announcement clips are below.

Amazing Race contestant get watermelon slingshot to the face
I feel so bad for this lady, I mean… that looks extremely painful. But the good news was that she wasn’t hurt more than a severely stinging face. Hopefully she got smacked for a good reason. We’ll find out when the next season of the amazing Race comes out.
But I will say this… this might be my favorite video clip of the year. It already has over 1.8 Million views.

The iPhone update gives you HDR photos, what do you guys think of it?
The newest update for the iPhone came out a few days ago, and since there almost 50 Million iPhones have been sold to date I’m guessing more than a few of you have one. My question is this: Does the new High Dynamic Range actually work? I see a lot of pictures around that look pretty awesome, but I’m not sure it pans out as good as claimed.
What do you all say? Anyone got some example shots I can look at?
Football. Tonight. Finally
Tonight is the start of the National Football Season. tonight we will see the Minnesota Vikings verusus the New Orleans Saints. It’s going to gfeel good to watch 9a game on the TV again, I’ll tell you that. Trafic should be good, crime should be down and hopefully a soothing calm come over the world as we gather around to see the beginning of the 2010-2011 season.
My phone will be off if anyone is trying to reach me, by the way. I think you know why.
