Just for Kahn.

I know you've come across this song before, but I thought you'd perhaps like the film clip to go with it.



I'd write up a whole lot of stuff to go with this, but someone else has already done some scribbling in thier own blog, so I'll link you over to that instead.

I promise I'll do something more interesting next post!

What the hell?

So why is it that while I loathe pop music so very much, I still get stuck on Avril Lavinge? Bah! It's some kind of crazy mind control or subliminal messaging in her film clips. It has to be. Seriously, I don't know why but if it wasn't for the fact that she's A) famous and B) married, I'm sure that my tenuous reality matrix would shatter and I'd find myself chasing after her like some love-sick puppy. Ok, maybe I'm not a love-sick puppy kind of guy anymore and I'd be more of a narcisistic bastard like Rayne Sommers from LICD, but you get what I'm talking about.

Either way, she has some freaky mind affecting powers that stem from her film clips. Take a look and see for yourself. Compelling isn't it? If only I could discover the exact source of her power and harness it for my own purposes! The world would be mine in but a fraction of the time when compared to so many of my other schemes for world domination. Perhaps it's for the best that she got married after all...

Don't even try mentioning that I wouldn't know about her if she wasn't famous or I'll kill you.

No Fishing

Every now and then, I'll come across a game that is a little out of the ordinary. I'm not saying that the disc will fly around the room or that the game has to be some spectacular feat of engineering that has never been seen before, it just manages to hit my game nerves with an intensity that seems to bend time. Recently, Zelda: Twilight Princess has done this. It's consumed around 45 hours of my life in the last week and when you think that most people spend that long at work, you can see why this is a nasty addiction.

I've enjoyed every moment of the game thus far, from collecting bottles to digging in the dirt. There seems to be no task too mundane to hold my attention. I'm what is known in gaming circles as a completionist. I will often latch onto a game and play myself into a coma in an effort to collect everything, unlock everything and kill... everything. The trap of this particular game though is the reel fishing. I could have run in and thrashed Ganon about 5 to 10 hours of gameplay ago, but the fishing... oh the fishing.

My name is Salem and... there's no easy way to put this but...

May the gods have mercy on my soul and forgive me for using the sinking lure just that one time.
