April Fools

A. Woodbury here...

It's coming friends, whether we like it or not. It's one of the most anticipated arrivals of all time. What do I refer to? The one and only Apple iPad

Immediately looking at the device, it looks like a giant iPhone. Looks can be deceiving, but not in this case because that is exactly what the iPad is.. a giant iPhone. Looking at its features, nothing jumps out to be extremely innovative or original. It has all been done before with the iPhone and iPod Touch. The layout is the same with both the hardware and software. The abilities are the same. And the feel is the same, except slightly larger. It can get online using AT&T's 3G network, so that has its ups and downs at the same time.

On April 3rd consumers will get their first chance to hold their own iPad. Pre-orders have been skyrocketing for days now. How much is it? Starting at $500 for a 16GB model without wi-fi, is this even worth it? Nearly everything the iPad has to offer, one could do the same with an iPod Touch or iPhone. So what benefits are there paying nearly $200 more for a giant iPod Touch? We will see come April 3rd

Passing By

A.Woodbury here...

You know when two people pass one another on the sidewalk, there is usually an exchange of greetings. One person may say 'hey, what's up'. The other responds with 'hey'. And the exchange is over; both people keep walking and continue on their merry way. This is what I call a 'Passer-by Conversation'.

These conversations do not have very much depth in them. They occur quite often, especially on college campuses. They usually just consist of a few questions that are never answered. Like when someone says 'Hey, how are you?', there is not usually a person to answer the full question, but instead they will respond with a 'Hey'. Since these conversations are so quick, it is my observation that any answer will complete the conversation. For example, someone might say 'hey, how's it going' and the other could respond with 'blue mushrooms' and be perfectly ok. End of story, the conversation is over because it simply does not matter what the response is.

If you find it ridiculous, there's all the reason to go try it. Let me know how it goes though because this is a very unproven theory. It's not even close to a theory, just a thought lol

Sneakerhead = EXPENSIVE hobby. like for real for real.

Suuuuppp ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

This is Daniel J Lee AKA Ness, repping that 703 and the SSB crew.
SSB is my team and as you already know Super Smash Bros is what connects the fam
and brought us all together.
enough with the intro with me and all the proper grammar stuff.
its now down to the nitty gritty of my title.

"Sneakerhead = EXPENSIVE hobby. like for real for real"
in case you dont know the term.
a sneakerhead is one who is always in a want of new sneakers. and just loves sneakers.
alright sooo its kinda like this whenever i meet new ppl their sneakers is the first thing i look at.
when im checking a girl out the sneaks the first thing i look at. get it?
something about that fresh new scent of shoes or the feeling of how comfortable
the shoes are, makes me a druggie...
on shoes. i was wanting more and more spending more and more. too much money.
i was scraping the money on my savings account just barely making the payment.
all for what? man i loved making ppl turn their heads and breaking their necks.
'cause of the kicks or just rocking a hot outfit that matched the kicks...
but i dont know. i had a good amount of shoes.
ended up giving away half of them to close friends.
in reality clothes dont make the person wearing it.
it may show some expression, expression of i got money and you dont. wak expression yeah?
but being materialistic wont get you anywhere but empty pockets.
and even buying the shoes you really want will still leave you hanging.
your just gonna want more and more.
there is more to life then just shoes and clothes.
like friends and fam like SSB so holla if you need one we got you.
trust me. its not worth spending so much money on materials you dont need.

"you cant tell me just who you are, you buy new clothes just to hide those scars."
- Lupe Fiasco Food&Liquor album

so what you learned today is sneakerhead = MONEY

im still in rahab for my addiction to sneakers...



This has been SSB exclusive. hahahaha.

The Gamer Inside

Since the dawn of man, human kind has been playing games. OK, maybe its not that serious, but games are quite fun. I've played my fair share of video games from the early days of Super Nintendo to today's PS3. Most of the games I play have been on consoles, but there is also been a great number of computer games under my belt. Don't get me wrong playing games isn't all I do, but it's just so much fun, ya know?

Of all the games I've played; ranging from strategy, adventure, action, 3rd and 1st person shooters, I must say that nothing beats a good FPS. And lately that game for me has been Modern Warfare 2.

It's a great game, it really is. Been a fan of Call of Duty ever since the beginning. Though it isn't the best in it's genre overall, it does have plenty of positive things about it. It's multiplayer plays a major part because this is what keeps players coming back. Allowing even more weapons, perks, and killstreaks was an amazing thing keep fans of the series interested. There are about 5 attachments for each weapon depending on which weapons class you're in. This makes playing with each gun a fun challenge. Also, by giving players a chance to customize the appearance of their names with titles and emblems, it makes the game a bit more unique to the person playing. And don't get me started on the Spec Ops. With this newly added feat, players can team up with a friend and complete various missions in order to unlock even more missions. These range from a walk in the park to outright impossible; but nothing is impossible to the determined!

With all of these added features who can pass up this game? I purchased the game about 2 days after it came out on November 10th. I've been addicted ever since. With the intense single player campaign, the challenging spec ops, and the addicting multiplayer, I just couldn't stop. A lot of the fellow SSB crew and I also played it a lot in the apartment and just got a kick out of it. We usually do team deathmatch and just go at it for a while.


Well that's all for now. More to come.
