My dog Lucky passed a few days ago. Cause… unknown. But he was of age, 13 human years old going on 14. Rest in peace old friend.

Yes, I’m Still Alive

Coola — Thu, 02 Nov 2006 21:45:47 +0000

I’m still alive peoples… and as you may have noticed haven’t updated the ol’ bloggy in a while. I’m not stuck in Canada and I’m not a hostage. Everything is ok now. Though I will say that I am hostage to the tooth fairy — more on that later.

But for now, can you guess where I’ve been just from this piccy? I think not!

And this one:

Free Zune/iPod Giveaway At ZuneGroove.com!

Coola — Thu, 28 Sep 2006 18:46:55 +0000

But.. what’s the catch? Yea yea… there always seems to be a catch somewhere right? So ok… the guys over at Zune Groove are giving away a free Zune or that iPod thing if you so choose.

The catch is that you have to be a member of the Zune Groove forums. You don’t even have to post anything.

I think that’s pretty cool right? RIGHT?!?! Alright, now that you have your *final* incentive to join the Zune Groove forums (besides me joining too), you can start working your way to that Free Zune or iPod!

Sea ya Seattle!

These plane trips are kicking my ass right about now. Thanks again for everyones warm (and in some cases, very warm) welcome home!
Just a little background info, Microsoft invited me up to the Microsoft Game Studios to playtest a new Xbox 360 and PC game named Shadowrun. I’ll have my preview up later this week on Xbox365.
After I played the game I went ahead on down to Seattle, which is a few miles from Microsoft HQ. I had tons of time to kill before my flight so I checked out the Experience Music Project in downtown Seattle, located right by the famous space needle. Only thing that sucked was that it was closing in 1 hour but I still paid my $15.00 and rolled on through. If you ever get a chance to go to Seattle, you must go there. It’s like the law or something.
After that, just browsed around downtown, checking out the locals as usual. Hit up a retro circus area with a retro arcade that had retro games. Alas it was time to hit the high tail and get outta there. Off to the airport and back home. Glad to be back on earth with everyone!

annnd… leaving once again. Going home once more to Microsoft and will be out of the office till Fridayish. I’ll be sure to update everyone on how the trip went (as I’m sure everyone cares anyway.)

Happy flying I will say to myself. happy flying indeed.

Early Burd Gets The Pinata

Coola — Sat, 09 Sep 2006 10:16:07 +0000

I’m up a bit early this morning because… as I’m sure you all know… the new show - “Viva Pinata” is due to air in just a few hours on Fox TV. Now just by the chance that you didn’t know, this show was created by Microsoft, Rareware and 4Kids Entertainment for the kiddies. It will also be a very unique video game due out on the Xbox 360.

Here now for your viewing pleasure, a few videos:

For the really bored, check out the Viva Pinata Webisode:

And for the sake of it all, I believe I have found my Coola Pinata or Coolata as I call it. It is a burd, it’s brown and it likes to be filled with candy so that one day it will be beaten open by lil kiddies and spread candy and joy to all.

Godbless Coolata.

Be Strong My European Brothers

Coola — Fri, 08 Sep 2006 10:51:48 +0000

I know I’m a bit late at posting this here, but seeing as Sony has delayed the Playstation 3 launch in Europe till March freakin’ 2007, I felt the need to share my remorse with my fellow european gamers.

So to you all I say, keep your heads up up UP!

Back In The Nest

Coola — Sun, 27 Aug 2006 23:12:56 +0000

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome back to my nest. So where was the burd off to now? Vancouver Canada. Yea, I told myself I would never go to canada because well… I’d get shot or I’d die there. And to tell you the truth, I think I almost did.

Long story short, while landing in the beautiful city of Vancouver I had the worst pain I’ve ever felt in my life. It was a sharp stinging in my forehead that shreaked down the side of my left face and into one of my top teeth. Very weird yes. I must have been totally vunerable for any attack for a good 10 minutes, rendered helpless in my airplane seat and almost in a state of shock. I do feel sorry for the nice lady next to me who seemed to be freaking out.

Something about canada.

Moving on, the pain went away after taking a forgettable amount of pain killers. Oh and the fact that I was on the hunt for my love Kristin Kreuk! I was in her home town and so I spent a good amount of time browsing around the city, hoping to maybe run into her. But for her sake, I guess it was in the best interest of everyone that I didn’t… Or DID I?

Right, so the whole purpose of the trip was to visit Electronic Arts (EA) to try out their new racing game that will be hitting all gaming systems later this year. Quite the blast Canada was, especially all the gorgeous women!

Here now are some of the photo’s I took back with me. The others, I’m afraid, you can’t see.
