Untold Legends Warriors Code New Info

I haven't played Untold Legends Warriors Code in awhile but I was level 46.  I got stuck where I was in the game and gave up lol.

So a few days ago someone commented in my YouTube video asking if I thought it was worth it and naturally I said yes because it's fun.  So he got to level 22 and we finally got together in the game today and played.  He's in New York, I'm in California and we're playing a PSP game together.  Isn't that something?  I think it's awesome as hell.

So anyway, I learned something about the game.  If one person dies how the heck do you continue in the game?  Obviously you can't continue by yourself, you have to resurrect the other person.  How do you do that?  It's a lot easier than you think, you just teleport somewhere else and move around and they come back to life then you just teleport back to where you were and continue.

You learn something new everyday right?

Fresh Air Fund

Awhile back I posted a message about the Fresh Air Fund - Half Marathon.  I am happy to announce that they have raised $80,000 this summer with their NYC half marathon.

I think that's wonderful that they were able to raise that much money to help pay for summer camp for the children.

Hey if you want to check out all the pictures you can find them online:

Amazon Wireless

amazonwirelessAmazon has added a new service to their website called Amazon Wireless.  This is kind of neat because you can choose your wireless company, which by the way they only have 2 so far which are AT&T and Verizon Wireless, then choose a phone then choose whether you want a new individual account or if you are already part of an existing individual account or family account.

Most of the phones are only a penny and so you basically get a free phone but when you click that you already have an existing account the price may go up to about $50-$75 or more depending on the phone.  I found that certain phones you still get for just a penny with an already existing plan.

I think that's great that they will give you a free phone if you are upgrading your cell phone but not your plan because it just makes it easier to get a new phone.  I'm sure people don't want to upgrade because they just can't afford to so this makes it easier.

I didn't see any iPhones listed but I did see Blackberry Curve and Blackberry Bold.  They also have some other well known companies like Samsung, LG, Motorola and Sony to name a few.

Now here is my question and I hope someone will find this via google blog search so they can answer.  I have a pre-paid cell phone with T-Mobile.  Of course they don't offer T-Mobile yet but it says coming soon.  But when they do get T-Mobile I wonder if I can buy a new phone for my pre-paid plan with GPS and Mp3 capability.  I wonder if it would work.  I don't need internet, I just want to be able to have the GPS and Mp3 along with being able to call people.

I currently have a Nokia 3390 cell phone pre-paid plan with T-Mobile that I've had since 2002.  The reason I got a pre-paid plan is for 2 reasons.  #1 being that a friend of ours in Hollywood was always driving to Malibu to visit her mom (this was 1997-1999, she passed away in 2000) and she couldn't get reception and she was having nothing but problems but to be fair she knows that she didn't have reception due to the mountains that she was driving through but she blamed it on the cell phone company anyway.  She insisted on getting out of her contract to go with another company and she had to pay big bucks to get out of it which was dumb because she had the same issue with another company lol.  So it's for this very reason that Chip forbade me, yes, I said forbade, from getting a contract.

Reason number 2 is that I have a little to no credit score since I never really established credit in my late teens.  No credit cards means bad credit score which means the cell phone companies will only give me a cell phone with the highest paid plan which makes absolutely no sense to me.  They should offer me their cheapest plan so they know they get their money every month.  Also, I'm on disability so I can't really afford a monthly plan fee.  All I really can afford is the pre-paid because I only pay for minutes when I need them and I don't use it that much to warrant buying a lot of minutes.

Chip has taken over the phone though because he needs a phone at work so when he's driving if he needs to make a call to AAA for a tow or whatever then he has a phone.  Also if he has to call 911 then he has a phone.  He usually uses it to call me at the house on his way home.  But he's always asking me to go to map quest and tell him the directions that he writes down and I think it would be much easier if he had a GPS on the phone.

Sorry I rambled on but you have to know the full story of why I'm asking lol.  Thanks for your response in advance.

Bright House Cable Upgrade

A week ago I got in the mail a letter from our cable company "Bright House Cable" saying they are going to be making some changes to the system and to keep an eye out or something.  I don't have it anymore and I don't remember what it said.

Yesterday a 1-800 number called and I let the machine pick it up and it was Bright House calling.  It was a recording and I let the machine record it but before it hung up I picked up the phone to hear the rest of the message.  It said that it was going to be upgrading 1 of our cable boxes.  It didn't say which one, just that 1 of our boxes is going to get the upgrade and the other one will get it in a few weeks.

It was the one in the living room and I am so glad that it was that one and not the one in my bedroom because Chip would never let me live that down lol.  I have an HD box in my room even though I don't have an HD tv set.  The cable company gave me the wrong one but I insisted that I'm going to be upgrading my tv anyway (which was a lie) so let me keep it lol.  I said that because some of the HD channels are eastern time zone and I like being able to see the shows 3 hours earlier so that I can watch my network shows when they come on at 8 and 9pm.

One of the reasons why I couldn't watch Ghost Hunters many years ago was because the new episode always came on at the same time as one of my shows at 9pm but I didn't know then that they repeat it at 11 lol.  Duh!  But that's ok, I like to watch the new episode at 6pm even though I don't have any other Wednesday night shows.  I get to watch the new episodes 4 times, 6pm and 8pm on SyFyHD and 9pm and 11pm on regular SyFy lol.

So I still have to wait a week to 3 weeks for my upgrade.  I was just looking at it and it's not all that different.  Ok yes it's really different but it's not better.  It's just eye candy is all.  I will record on my dvd recorder what it looks like normal then when I get the upgrade record it with the upgrade and put it on YouTube lol.
