Motorcycles

I've decided that I want to start a new blog concerning me and my motorcycle. I figure it will be a good place to record my riding adventures as well as keeping track of my repairs, oil changes, ect. This blog will still be my main one, so if you are not interested in motorcycles, you don't have to see the other.

New Address ---> http://memymotorcycle.blogspot.com/

I was inspired when looking for parts today and ran across this website.

Yaaaaaaaaar

Things have been pretty quiet as of late. That's not exactly a bad thing.

Last weekend I went up to school with a lot of stuff. I brought all my dirty laundry (The school washers and dryers are cheaper than my apartment,) bunny, food, music players, ect. I didn't realize I had so much stuff until we had to take it all upstairs.

On Saturday everyone went to the gym to work out. I masterfully slipped in by saying that I forgot my ID and then signed Steve's name instead. I found out that I don't like working out on machines. The treadmills are just plain weird. When running I feel like I am jumping up and down instead of actually running. To add to that, there is no wind generated because I am staying in one spot. The elipticals are not much better. They give a smooth, low-impact workout, but all the positions just felt awkward. My feet and legs just don't match any of the tilt options available.

Anyway, I've recently become addicted to Pokemon again. I started playing Platinum about 2 weeks ago and have been playing non-stop in my freetime. In a couple more days I will probably beat the main story. I sure am a geek...

I was also in a home-renovating mood at the beginning of the week. I managed to fix my toilet so that it doesn't run constantly by adjusting the floaty thing inside it. I also worked on the bathtub because it has a small leak. I measured the leak while at work one day and found that in 9 hours it leaks about 1 measuring cups worth of water. I found out how to turn the water to my bathroom off--There is a wood panel located outside the bathroom and on the opposite side of the bathtub. I had to chip the paint off the screws in order to get the thing off, but inside there is a knob for both hot and cold water. Unfourtunately, I did not have a wrench big enough to take off the knobs and replace the seals. I might try calling maintenance about it. Until then, the leak remains.

I also cleaned my apartment while I was at it.

Sony Fail

I absolutely hate Sony in every way (except for their LED-TV's) so I am very happy to post this. The PSP GO was released recently and it sucks. I'll highlight some of my favorite quotes:

"The PSP Go is a terrible, terrible deal for everyone but Sony."

"There is still no background downloading, which means that once you begin to download a game, you can't do anything else until it is finished.... Even worse, if you lose your signal or get disconnected, your [download] progress is not saved."

"Sony may have promised everyone a program which would allow you to trade in your old UMDs [Games] for credit or download tokens or some such, but now that we're at launch, the company has admitted that their plan... never really existed. If you buy a PSP Go, your UMDs are worthless; there is nothing to be done with them."

"In the middle of a recession, Sony has released the most expensive portable system on the market, and as an added bonus the company seemed to go out of its way to give the finger to existing customers. You can't even trade in your older system for the newer one to help with the price, because then you can't play your games."

"The PSP Go now uses a proprietary plug, which means no more generic USB cables. Your old chargers won't work either."

"[After buying the system,] it took around three hours to get to playing an actual game."

"If Sony continues this trend, expect a $500 PS3 that doesn't play Blu-ray discs"

Oh Sony. You built up such a good reputation with the PSOne and the PS2. Now you seemed to have jumped off a plane with no parachute.

In other news....

I recieved my Zune HD 32GB in the mail Wednesday night and have been obsessed with browsing the Zune store and downloading all the music I want (For FREE!!) That's right! No more *ehem* "getting" music from the internet. See my full review of the Zune HD once the "new technology OMG cool!!" phase wears off.
