"Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges"

Last night "Bye Week" Finally won at Trivia Night at the Anchor Inn. We kickum some good ass. Afterwards I pulled one of those great bonehead "Why does Alex insist on torturing himself" moods and called up ashley at like 12:30. OddJob answers and I am all like, "yo who is this". He replies "Dave, who is this?" So I say "Alex, I want to talk to your girlfriend."

From their I have pathetic drunk conversation #207 with her. After that debacle we (Wyatt, Chelsea, Nate, Lindsay and myself) went to the Good Times, where we sucked it up at darts and pool, and closed down the bar.

This November Nintendo is releasing their latest game in the "Legend of Zelda" franchise. I believe it is titled "The Twilight Princess". Also this fall sees the XBox 360 premiere with "Perfect Dark Zero" a prequel to the hit 1999 game for Nintendo 64.

Snape Knows Best

"Sit down" he snapped at Hermione. "For your information, Potter, asphodel and wormwood make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of Living Death. A bezoar is a stone taken from the stomache of a goat and it will save you from most poisons. As for monkshood and wolfsbane, they are the same plant, which also goes by the name of aconite. Well? Why aren't you all copying that down?"

The Daily Byte

I can't help but find it a bit odd that the government is getting involved with sports and the steroid abuse scandal. No, I'm not saying they shouldn't, or that I disagree with their involvment. I think it is great and that they are not doing anywhere near enough yet. This should have happened ten years ago at least. What I find odd is that politicians are about the most crooked people you will ever meet in your life. They lie, cheat, steal, kill, do just about anything to gain power and not allow it to wriggle away. In other words, any advantage they can get, they seize. How does that differ from these sports figures that are taking steroids? In my opinion, none at all. And I find it farcical that a corrupt system is telling these sports figures that their will be severe consequences for acting in a corrupt nature.

I would say that if you are found to be using steroids, you are banned for life from your sport. I would fire the manager of the team, and put sanctions against the team from making playoff contention. And you do not have to tell me that is a harsh punishment, I know it is. But I guarandamntee you that it would get the job done.

If only we could repremand politicians for abuse of power in the same fashion.
