How fast is your Internet?

I found this little test on the Internet, it's kind of a fun free test. I'm pretty happy with getting a little over 5 Mbps with my $19.99 a month DSL. :) I guess I'm just really bored right now since my Xbox 360 died, and has to be sent out for repair. :( My test result is a clickable link to go to the site to try it for yourself.

Dance Dance Revolution Ultramix



Well, I've invested some time trying to get better at DDR. I'm not so good at it. I've done all the tutorials, and I've made it past a few of the songs. I actually recognize some of the songs, so that makes it a little more fun. When you get a chance to dance to some Chris Brown in your living room everythng is good. :)

Super Paper Mario



Finally on April 9th there will be another Wii game worth purchasing. I can't wait to get my hands on this game. The Paper Mario series has always been very fun. Now we just need some Mario Sports titles and Mario Kart to come out with online multiplayer. I would probably not have to ever leave the house again. :)

TMNT



Am I the only one interested in this movie? I love the look of the animation, and I am excited to go see it. Hopefully I can time it right, and take the kid to go see it before somebody else does. :)

Can you name all 50 states?

I found this little quiz game out there on the old Internet. It's not the fanciest thing of all time, and spelling is important. I was able to name all 50 states with 3:13 remaining, how well can you do? Damn you Oregon!!!

The Matches, Epitaph 2007

The Matches are Co-Headlining the 2007 Epitaph Tour. Last night they didn't close the show, which suprised me since they are pretty popular in Detroit and I never heard of the band that closed the show. As a matter of fact, I still don't know the name of the band that closed the show last night. We were by the bar drinking when what I thought was going to be another horrible opening band began singing Shoot Me in the Smile, I though it was odd that another band on the tour would be covering a Matches song, so I looked up and it was The Matches. I was suprised to say the least. Here is the setlist from last night:

Shoot Me In the Smile
Drive
Chain Me Free
My Soft and Deep
Papercut Skin
Salty Eyes
Audio Blood
Sunburn Vs. the Rhinovirus
Little Maggots
What Katie Said
Sick Little Suicide
Papercut Skin

Dance Dance Revolution

As I consider actually purchasing the new DDR for the Xbox 360, I am reminded of the greatest scene in Grandma's Boy. Of course there weren't that many great scenes, but this one is funny as hell. I might just have to get the new DDR so I can practice at home, and some day be awesome at DDR. :)
