Don't you like when the winter's gone
And all of a sudden it starts gettin warm
The trees and the grass start lookin fresh
And the sun and sky be lookin their best
Birds be singin, flowers be bloomin
A lot of brand new cars be zoomin
Fly girls lookin the best they can be
And the guys be dukey dukey Dan you see
Besides all that I like the warm weather
Cause that's when you can get yourself together
But I like Easter time with a grin
Cause when I was little we used to go to Coney I-sland
We used to eat a lot of stuff like cotton candy
Cause back then, it was like fine and dandy
You used to get dressed up in double knits
And your plaid suit jackets, they were the shits
The good ol' days, was back then
And the reason I reminisce, cause..
Chorus:
It's spring again
Everybody know it's spring again
To the girls and boys and people above
This is the time to fall in love

The newest chapter of the Paper Mario story isn't just out of this world … it's out of this dimension. {sidebar id=1}What at first glance appears to be a 2-D sidescroller ripped straight from the pages of the Paper Mario universe soon turns into a 3-D action-adventure that defies all video game logic. Fusing 2-D and 3-D perspectives, not to mention RPG and platformer elements, the game slips back and forth between dimensions. The action sprawls across eight worlds filled with traps, puzzles, bizarre mysteries and items that often draw themselves out of thin air. Oh, and just because Mario's in the title doesn't’t mean he's the only star — players also get to play as Peach and Bowser.
Coming right after my birthday, Super Paper Mario for the Wii should release sometime around April 9th or April 10th.
Being the crazy Mario fan that I am, I plan on getting it for sure.

$180 dollars and 3 months later, we finally got our 52 inch tv back up and going.
Our big projection screen tv conveniently took a crap a few weeks right before the super bowl and things just haven't been the same since. We had to resort to an old 23 inch CRT tv that just like total crap. Everything looked bad on it…even the Nintendo Wii.
After going back and forth with the TV repair man, who we swore was part turtle, he finally told us that it shorted out and the tv wasn't coming on. Gee, thanks for the diagnosis…but could you stfu and fix it?! It took him 2 months to figure that out and we thought that it would only take a couple of weeks like he mumbled when he hauled it away.
He finally ordered a replacement part and got it back up and running. Wow, what a difference! I can see! Its amazing how much of a difference it is now seeing something that huge in our little living room…and I forgot how nice it sounded too.
Was it worth the wait? Yeah I guess, we are just glad to have it back so we can enjoy a DVD once in awhile. I think that my daughter missed it the most as once in awhile she likes to test the screen's durability and smack it a few times.

WiiHear.com has overcome a huge milestone yesterday with a groundbreaking discovery that will make adding Wii radio stations a breeze and fun to do.
To add a radio station to the list, it involves a great deal of file editing, uploading and testing.
Per streaming Wii radio station, it could take up to a half hour or so. The high amount of time involved to do this is why the count of radio stations isn't so high at the moment.
As of yesterday, flash programming skills were put to the test.
After a hair-pulling event took place, a resolution surfaced.
It has been discovered that by entering a short string of information, the popular WiiHear Mushroom can play any shoutcast station.
Test after test showed the new method to be flawless.
On top of this new discovery, a new " Power Mushroom" was also invented.
With the WiiHear Power Mushroom, members can enter the shoucast ip and port address of their favorite radio station.
That's what we call " giving the fans what they want "!
So instead of waiting for management to add a suggested station, users can simply enter their own information and hit play for instant results.
Because of this awesome discovery, expect to see many more radio stations added to the list as well as new exclusive features.

History was made last night when the credits started to roll. That's right, I beat The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess! For once in my life, I have accomplished something.
It all took about 58.5 hours to complete but some of those hours were from Big D and Bubba taking the controls…so no, I didn't waste that much time of my life. The game was started a little before Christmas so it lasted about 2 months. I know for sure that I got my money out of it.
Overall, the game was pretty damn good. The graphics and controls were decent and I personally think that if a game can keep hooked and coming back for more…its a good game. The only thing that I didn't like about the game was that it gave you the feeling of completion, but then it would turn around and draw out longer. For example, I remember sitting there and just saying to myself, "I beat it. I beat the game." But then all of a sudden…"WTF do you mean I now have to go to the castle?! I busted my ass for the mirror shards and now this?!".
I loved the The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess soundtrack. I know that sounds nerdy as hell to say, but it was cool. I must admit that it gave me goose bumps when I heard a touch of old school Zelda in there. I could picture the sparkling gold casing of the first Zelda for NES and the hours I spent on that game back in the day.
Not only did I enjoy it, but my 11 month old daughter took a liking to it as well. She loved the opening scene where Link and his horse put on a little show. Every time she saw this, I had to let her watch for a but and bounce up and down like she was riding a horse. She also showed good response to the horse call and Midna's little alerting giggle that came through the Wiimote. Because of this, the game also has some sentimental value as well so it will be difficult to put it up on Ebay.

John Brown goes down. Shamrock from the White Rapper Show took the crown last night and put that burbs turd in his place.
The performance before the final show was a little shaky as Shamrock’s mic didn’t work and his grill fell out his mouth…but looking at John Brown, he was nervous as hell. If I had lame and motionless rhymes about "Car Wars", I think that I would be a little nervous too.
In the final performance, the last two standing had to write their own track to a CD of beats that Serch provided. Shamrock had the best rhyme called "Fly Away" which had a story about girls getting in his face and wasting his time. Doing it totally opposite of John Brown, Shamrock pumped the crowd up and bounced around stage. His energy almost got the best of him as his tricky flow got a little too tricky.
Instead of someone stepping off, Serch allowed the best to step up. The show is about the best in show and Shamrock was the best.
Congrats to Shamrock! PS, let me know if you need a web site or something. :)

Have you ever had a tune stuck in your head and just cannot get it out? Well for me, its often the Super Mario Brothers theme song.
This is probably one of the coolest things that I have seen in awhile. This guy has way too much time on his hands…literally. Many people can make a farting noise with their hands squishing together, but this guy has it mastered. He can actually create notes and tunes to create songs!
Check out the Super Mario Brothers hand farting performance below and be amazed…
