Random stuff

Hello everybody!!! Long time, no post. Well nothing going much with my life that isn't out of the ordinary. My post will be about many things from the upcoming election to gas prices, to old video games.

Finally, election season is almost over. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. No more ads on TV, radio, and the Internet. No more phone calls to remind that "your vote counts". And no more listening to my sister "you need to vote because it's your right" crap. I will vote this election, but will be undecided 'til I get to the voting booth. There are so many races going on, not only the national but local elections. Hell, I more concerned about the local election because they affect you the most. I just can't wait until November 4th will be over. We'll find out who our elected officials will be and move on with better stuff to do.

Gas prices hasn't been this low since......I can't remember when it was this low. It's about 2.25 here and in some places it's 1.90. I, for one, thought gas prices will never fall below 3.00 and it's 2.25, I am speechless. How far will it fall? I like it this low but I know, eventually, it'll go back up. I still drive cautiously like when it was 4.00 because the less I spend on gas the more I can spend on something else.

I love old school video games and I am not talking about Pong. I am talking about, Goldeneye, NBA Hangtime, Sonic, Mario bros., Double Dragon, and Mortal Kombat. Those long days and nights playing it 'til you're tired. Staying up with your friends all night playing until someone wins. I love Goldeneye because of the multi player, it was awesome, although I wasn't as good as others. NBA hangtime is awesome, I still have it somewhere, I love the crazy stuff you can do in the game. My favorite part is the commentator's phrases: "He can't hit backside of a barn, he's on fire, he's unconscious, baseline leaner, and why" (when you quit the game). Sonic and Mario brings me back to my elementary days. Just love the background music.I would play it all day trying to beat the game. It took my a few weeks but I did. Double Dragon is memorable because I would play my sis all the time and she would get lucky and win. Finally, Mortal Kombat is just incredible. The fights, the fatalities, the blood, no other way to describe it. Those were the times. I am not into video games anymore, although I still try to play every now and then.

Well, that's it for this post. Next time I will try to post more quickly. Keep reading and checking in.
