Snowed in: The Aftermath

I finally got rid of that big wall of crap blocking my garage door. How? I simply poured ten gallons of salt all over it and it all melted. Thank God for chemistry. Now I can go to work! Oh? It's Sunday, you say? *sigh*

Also, in honor of World AIDS Day which was yesterday, I put this nifty ribbon on my sidebar. Nice.

Snowed in

Oh yeah. It snowed last night. It snowed so hard, every school within fifty miles of my house is closed. And here I am, stuck inside, my garage door unable to open thanks to a huge wall of snow. Whew, what a day. I have been shoveling all morning, but I guess I'll just hire someone with a truck. I must admit though, it is a lot of fun playing with my dog all day and making snowmen. Ha, I sound like an eight-year-old. Well, pray for me and hope I don't catch pneumonia.

On the bright side, I can catch the season finale of Avatar.

Snoop Dogg Arrested for Gun and Drug Possession

Again? What is this, like the 57th time?

Anyhow, aren't guns and drugs like standard gangsta gear? I wouldn't know, that is. ;-)

Nike+

So I was at Nordstrom yesterday ("God Patro, what were you thinking? It's two days after Thanksgiving!"). Sure, it was crowded as a Krispy Kreme on the season premiere of The Biggest Loser, but I actually found some great shoes that hadn't already been sucked up by the mainstream. I was in the men's department, and I decided to go look at the shoes. I was looking around when I saw this whole exhibit that said:" Nike+. Experience it" or something like that. So I found those great-looking shoes above, tried them on, and bought them. They're really cool shoes.

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

=

Ah, Thanksgiving. The one time of year when everyone stuffs themselves and no one counts calories. Turkeys run for their lives!

Everybody have a very happy Thanksgiving!

Guy pwned by girl!

Watch a hot girl strangle a tough-looking guy with her legs! Every man's dream....

So it's out today. The long-anticipated PlayStation 3 came out midnight last night. I don't really want one (I have an Xbox 360), but I am a bit intrigued by it. It has a built-in Blu-Ray player which probably won't do too well because HD-DVD has apparently been more successful so far,and it also has built-in wi-fi. But probably the thing that interests me most about it is the thing that nobody cares about: tilt-motion tech. Inside the controllers apparently is something that tilts very fast (NOTE: I AM TOTALLY ASSUMING THIS FROM THE NAME) to make it vibrate, unlike rumble which was used in the Xbox 360.

On another note, I have discovered a cute video with a sad ending on YouTube called KIWI! Go ahead and search fo it, if you want.

Emergence Day

It's finally here.

Deer in a store

Now you can really save a buck at Target.

This was in a bathroom book I read a while ago.

Since I gave you a joke/skit thing, you now mu st give me something. I recently purchased an aloe vera plant from Home Depot and guess what, I have no clue how to take care of it. So...

Please dig up any information possible on the care of an aloe vera plant. How often to water it, what kind of fertilizer to give it, how much light it likes, etc. Do this, and I will be most pleased. Don't do it, and I shall wreak a terrible curse upon you and your children for all eternity. Seriously, just do it or not, I don't care, but at least one person has to do it. Gracias!

And now for the greatest announcement all day. Drumroll, please....

HALO WARS!!!!!!

The brains at Ensemble Studios (the guys who brought you Age of Empires, one of my favorite games ever) have started working on one of those games that make you go "AWESOME!!!" They have started something so incredible, so amazing, so obvious yet so cool. That game is Halo Wars. They made a Halo RTS!!

For those of you not "in the know", an RTS is gamespeak for real-time strategy game. There are two types of strategy games in the universe: turn-based and real-time. As you might guess, turn-based is very similar to chess but with tanks. You and your opponent take turns to demolish each other or run away like a little girly-man. While it may take more brains, I consider turn-based games to be unnecessarily long and tedious. So I prefer RTS games such as Age of Empires. Age of Empires involves using villagers to build a city and then an army even while your opponent is doing the same. Once you have the fightingest army you can build, you lay seige to your opponent's city and then kill every man, woman, child, and dog to win. Or you can just build a Wonder, whatever you feel like. Now that you get the idea, (I hope) we can get on to the game. Halo Wars will be coming out for the Xbox 360, the awesomest game system in the awesomest market on the awesomest planet in the awesomest universe. It's plot is set before the events of Halo 1, and is about a group of marines marooned somewhere with those pesky Covenant doing all they can to beat the living snot out of these guys. It's too early to say more, but I can guarantee you Halo Wars is gonna rock the world.

Edoc Laundry

Edoc Laundry is something called an Alternate-Reality Game (ARG). In these games, players must solve puzzles, visit websites, and sometimes answer cryptic telephon calls. Edoc Laundry (backwards for "code") ingeniously blends cool shirts with this idea. Here is an example.

In this shirt, you turn in inside out to find the phrase: "Nothing to Hide". Underneath it are drips of paint matching the ones on the shirt, except they spell out "Nothing to Hide". Using this key you spell out the message on the shirt itself: CALL ME A PATRIOT. Go to Edoc's website, find the hidden link, and enter in this code. This will give you a video clip; the next clue in a mystery involving murder and a band called Poor Richard. Minus the Da Vinci Code-style sleuthing, the shirts come in cool colors, are well made and pretty hip. The one drawback is that they run a little small, so be warned.

And yes, Sonia, I know you have no interest in this whatsoever.

El Patro, Banner, and Poll makes three!

We got a poll in da house! There will be a new one every week, so start voting! Also.... instead of a blog description, I have a banner courtesy of Sloganizer. It has a new slogan for Tijuana Tortilla every 30 seconds. Now that's efficiency! If you don't like the style, let me know and I'll change it. El Patro, signing off.

Back by popular demand

I've gotten a lot of e-mails asking for more Red vs. Blue, so here is episodes 2-5. Here's the first one too in case you missed it.

The Last Stand

So I saw it today. I don't see why critics are giving a bad rap. I think it's a good movie, with only some corny dialogue and this extremely gay dude.

Other than that it's excellent. The movie begins with the future Magneto and the not-yet-wheelchair-bound Professor Charles Xavier interviewing young Jean Grey. They invite her to bea student at "Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters", the boarding school where mutantslearn to use their powers. It then cuts ten years later to Mr. Gay up there trying to saw his wings off. It then goes on to reveal a "cure" for mutation. Magneto and his Brotherhood are against it, as are the X-Men. Only Magneto wants to kill people and blow up stuff to make his point. Also, Jean Grey is reborn as The Phoenix, her dual-personality ten times more powerful as her old self. Obviously she cannot control it, and ends up killing Cyclops and a few others. I can't really say any more without putting a big SPOILER ALERT!!! on top, so you have to see it yourself now!

A momentous occasion

I, El Patro, author of Tijuana Tortilla, have just celebrated his 1000th visitor.

Trivia
The actors who portrayed the #1 choices in both the "Hero" and "Villain" lists, Gregory Peck and Sir Anthony Hopkins respectively, won the Best Actor Academy Award for their roles.

Humphrey Bogart, Harrison Ford, Henry Fonda, Gary Cooper, Paul Newman, Robert Redford, and James Stewart are the only other actors to have portrayed multiple heroes. Cooper is the only actor to portray more than two characters in either of the lists.

James Cagney, Bette Davis, Robert De Niro, Faye Dunaway, Robert Mitchum, Jack Nicholson, and Al Pacino are the only actors to have portrayed more than one villain.

Pacino and Schwarzenegger are the only actors to have portrayed both a 'Hero' and 'Villain'

The Terminator character is the only one to appear as a 'Hero' and a 'Villain.'

Batman, It's A Wonderful Life, Star Wars, Schindler's List, and The Silence Of The Lambs are the only films to provide characters to both lists.

'Man' from Bambi (#20) is the only character on either list to never actually appear on-screen (unless one considers Satan from The Exorcist (#9) when referring to the possessed Regan MacNeil).

T.E. Lawrence is the highest ranking non-fictional 'Hero,' while Amon Göth is the highest ranking non-fictional 'Villain.'

Ironically, though not a single top ten villain is seen using a firearm on-screen, 8 of the top 10 heroes are (Rocky Balboa and George Bailey, numbers 7 and 9 respectively, did not).

3 of the heroes and 7 of the villains are not human.

Caboose

"Sometimes when I can't sleep at night I think of my parents having sex and I get really mad for some reason."

I am very popular.

Why else would so many people want to tag me?
Here's the deal: Sonia got me this time. MAJOR WARNING: SONIA'S BLOG IS EXTREMELY NSFW!!!! (THAT MEANS NOT SAFE FOR WORK, EINSTEIN.) She asked me to list ten of life's simple pleasures, so here they are.
1. Winning at Halo (or any video game for that matter). Man, how incredibly exhilerating is it to, after journeying for yards and yards with enemy players trying to kill you, finally hoist that beautiful flag and run like hell all the way back to your base and say: "YES!!! WHO'S THE MAN!!!" or any other such taunt to your enemy? Wow.
2. Watching television. Hundreds of entertainment, sports and news programs waiting for you at the touch of a button. Nuff said.
3. Surfing the net. Being able to communicate with a friend in Vietnam, or obtaining images and information off Google, or expressing you thoughts on a blog. It's very cool.
4. Eating salume (not to be confused with salami). That incredible balance of fat, meat, seasoning, and aging is truly an experience.
5. Sushi. A delicate blend of fish, rice, and usually some vegetable is fantastic.
6. Eating blowfish. Yes, 1 in 20 is fatal, but that's the fun part.
7. Traveling. Going anywhere new and exotic is awesome.
8. Being in a play. People seem to depend on you a lot more when you're the star.
9. FOOTBALL!! Being with the guys, eating snacks, and rooting for the Colts.
10. Picking someone to tag. This time, it's gonna be...
