I know that people really care about my progress in this game. Hehe.
I was stuck in the game in this one spot, this guy kept teleporting away from me and when I did get a chance to hit him he would heal really fast right after he teleported away from me. It was so frustrating. I could keep myself alive with either running or potions but how long can I keep that up for?
So I decided to save my game then exit the game and reload it but this time instead of continue the story, I'd restart the story. I thought it would bring me back to the beginning of that zone but instead it brought me all the way back to when I first started playing the game. What a bummer. But, not really because I was still level 16 and I still had all my weapons and armor.
So, instead of going back to my original saved game I just went with it and started saving my game over my old game. This way, I'm gaining level by doing all the things I've already done and I'm getting better gear too instead of getting all the gear I was getting the first time around. I don't know how I'm getting gear for my level but I am. I was 16 when I restarted and now I'm level 21.
I do have a feeling though that when I get back to this bad ass guy I'll probably still have trouble because he will be a higher level. Maybe not, I don't know. Maybe he will still be the level he was before and I can kill him and get on with the game. I sure do hope so.
I want to be able to get to level 50 so I can play with other people in multiplayer mode online. Some people don't want to play with you if you aren't level 50. Stuck up jerks lol.

Lego Batman Nominated For Award
It's not the kind of award. This is a "TOADY" which means it's the worst toy of the year.
Lego Batman nominated for award for toys inappropriate for children
Personally, I like this game. I think that it's a pretty cool game. But I like all the Lego games because I liked Lego when I was a kid. I would play for hours building stuff then taking them apart and starting over again making something else.
The claim is that it promotes violence and sexuality to children. LMAO are you kidding me? WHAT THE F? Uh, ok, what about World of Warcraft? EverQuest? You have got to be kidding me. There is no sexuality in Lego Batman. You can''t play a video game without violence. Even Pac-Man ate the ghosts and the ghosts would kill him. Are you going to tell me that Pac-Man promotes violence towards ghosts?
I have the Lego Star Wars, Lego Indiana Jones and Lego Batman games and they are all good games and I would personally let my children play with them. This is absolutely rediculous that they are doing this.
One of the claims is that when this game was being advertised, McDonald's was selling Happy Meals with a lego batman character as the toy. So freakin what! They are saying that this is promoting violence, sexuality and bad health. Excuse me? You don't have to get soda in the happy meal, you don't have to get fries but instead they offer apple slices. Basically, you don't even have to get the meal for your kid, just go to McDonald's, buy the happy meal, eat the burger and fries and drink the little tiny soda then give your kid the toy, believe me, he/she won't even know the difference because all they want is the toy.
McDonald's has teamed up with Disney since the 80's that I know of to sell Disney related toys to children in their happy meals. I used to work there so I would know first hand. Every time there was a Disney movie out they would make toys to go in the happy meals. This is not new and exclusive to Lego Batman.
I say to all the people who are so worried about this... get a freakin life. Worry about the war, about our economy. Pick your battles.

Web Host Upgrade?
Ok I got this email today from my web host that they are going to start charging me $3 more per month but the good news is that I'm also getting 3GB more too. So I guess that's not bad. If I paid for a year up front I could get a discount so I'd really only have to pay $1 more each month but I really don't have the money to put towards a whole year up front. That's ok, it's still worth it to pay for my own domain rather than just use a blog site like Xanga, MySpace, Blogger, Yahoo 360° or whatever other blogging sites are out there.
At least with my own website I can give people a website address that they can go to that is short like xanapus.com. Most of the people who I played EQ with would know exactly where to go because they know that name. It would be easier to find me on the internet just by looking up my character name. If you do a google search for the name Xanapus there are 2,860,000 results. I get around lol.

The New Mickey Rourke
What the heck happened to sex symbol Mickey Rourke? Ok, I know I don't have any room to talk, I used to be skinny and cute but my problem is I quit smoking and gained weight and my hair fell out and I just transformed into this George Kastanza lookin guy. But Mickey Rourke, he's got money, if something is wrong he can fix it. In fact, he did try to fix something because he had plastic surgery. Why? If it ain't broke why fix it?
Take a look at these before and after shots. What a transformation from hot to DUDE! WTF!

Constitutional oath of office gets mangled
I watched this happen but I didn't know that they had to do the oath of office twice. The day after he swore in he had to swear in again because it wasn't legal. That is according to Fox News that they had to do it again the next day. I didn't hear about that.
This is copied and pasted from www.chron.com:
"For a couple of smooth-talking constitutional experts, Chief Justice John Roberts and President Barack Obama had a hard time getting through the constitutional oath of office.
There was a false start by Obama, who started to respond before Roberts had completed the first phrase. Obama ended up saying the first two words — “I, Barack” — twice.
Then there was an awkward pause after Roberts prompted Obama with these words: “That I will execute the office of president to the United States faithfully.” The chief justice seemed to say “to” rather than “of,” but that was not the main problem. The main problem was that the word “faithfully” had floated upstream in the constitutional text, which actually says this: “That I will faithfully execute the office of president of the United States.”
Obama seemed to realize this, pausing quizzically after saying, “that I will execute.”
Roberts gave it another try, getting closer but still not quite right with this: “Faithfully the office of president of the United States.” He omitted the word “execute.”
Obama now repeated Roberts’ initial error of putting “faithfully” at the end. Starting where he had abruptly paused, he said, “The office of president of the United States faithfully.”
From there, smooth sailing.
Constitutional law experts agree that the flub is insignificant. Yet two previous presidents — Calvin Coolidge and Chester Arthur — repeated the oath privately because of similar issues."
Universal Chat Program
When I stopped using my laptop I installed all the IM programs to the desktop such as AIM, Yahoo IM, MSN Messenger and MySpace IM. Well, all of a sudden I've noticed how slow my computer got from running all those IM programs.
So I went on Google and did a search for IM programs and found Pidgin. This is a universal chat program that lets you see your buddy list from 16 different IM programs.
There is one other that I wish it had which is Facebook. eBuddy has facebook, I use that IM program when I'm on my PSP.
Well this definately helps and all the IM's are tabbed so if you are in more than 1 conversation it's tabbed for you in 1 window. It also has chatrooms, the only thing it doesn't have is webcam. You can either have 1 universal icon for all to see or you can choose an icon for each IM service that you use. And it uses the smileys that you would normally see only in like AOL or Yahoo or MSN, so you can't use special smileys that you wouldn't see in AOL that you would see in MSN. I think it's pretty cool. I like it. My computer isn't slow any more.
