6th Reader of Zangz Blog of Geekdom Comes out of the Closet!!!!

Yep. We have a 6th person who actually admits to reading my blog. My sister, who we shall refer to as "Dizzy Lizzy" hence forth, has actually admitted to the fact that she actually reads my blog. So, that makes 4 people who have taken on the risky role of being a reader of my blog more than once. The list is as follows...

• Dizzy Lizzy
• MaMa Schu
• Roberto Del Amorte
• Carlo
• Goof
• Aaron
  

That's 5 people who've actually bothered to visit this site more than once. Hell, even Goof has made replies to the Blog every once in a blue moon. Well, thank god for small miracles!

In other news, I picked up two DVD's pretty cheap at Target today. "Howard Stern's Private Parts" (Loved watching him back when he was on E!) and "Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars" (the 4 hour, series finale, mini-series that the Sci-Fi Channel gave us Farscape fans after they realized how much they frelled up when they unceremoniously took it off the air! Yep... still bitter!). I got 'em both under a total of $20. Pretty good for a shrewd, geek shopper.

Tomorrow leads me to a cookout / baby shower for the DelAmorte child. Hopefully, there won't be any rain as the local "Elite Brilliance Squad" known as the local weather teams have predicted rain for today's late afternoon into the evening and being finished by tomorrow morning. Yet, it is well into the 8th hour of the evening and there is no rain to be seen. I'm hoping it won't hit us later and will be well over by the time tomorrow afternoon rolls around! If not, we'll have to disembowel the whole lot of weather people who fool us into thinking they know what there doing.

Ya know, for all that money the news stations spend on weather equipment, we seem to be no closer to predicting weather than the days where humans would roll the bones of their ancestors to predict storms.

Anyway, admitedly that was a pretty uninformative Blog so here's another....

WEBSITE OF THE MOMENT:

Destination: Morrowind

I've raved about this PC / Xbox RPG before, but here's an entire website from fans who appreciate it, possibly more than I do. As I've explained before, The Elder Scrolls series of games introduced players to a "do anything / be anything / whenever you want / how you want / if you want / open ended / non-linear video game before the likes of GTA: III ever came out. The game of Morrowind (the 3rd in the series) took place in this huge world where, with a first or third person perspective, you could investigate your surroundings and do anything you'd like. You could go through the main quest of the game or bypass it for a latter time and do some of the smaller quests or just walk around the immense world, marveling at the many different deserts, forests, swamps and ruins that occupied the landscape for you to peruse and discover on your own time. You could be evil and rob and kill and steal or you could be heroic and help others and thwart the curses that are layed over the land. It took me 8 months to go through and cover the entire world that was in the game while completing the main quest. It was, and has been, the greatest video RPG game I have ever played and has ruined for me most other action RPG's that have appeared on counsels since. Keep you eyes open for "Elder Scrolls III: Oblivion" to come out when the next generation of Xbox (Xbox: 360) comes out. It's the ONE and ONLY reason I'm considering getting a 360!

That's all for now. Check back again.
