  The KRISS Super V System

  While watching CSI:NY for the first time (which happened to be this year's season finally), I was intrigued by the mystery of a victim with two .45 Caliber rounds in him and only one clean entry wound. Racking my brain, I couldn't think of any solution to that riddle. Of course, if I was up to speed on the latest technological advances in weaponry or just picked up a copy of the December 07 edition of Popular Science magazine, then I would have been able to say, "That's because he used the KRISS Super V XSMG, of course!" The KRISS Super V series uses technology that directs the motion carried by the recoil downward instead of the usual horizontal course. So, while CSI may have glorified the concept a bit, the demonstration of the minimal recoil does present an optimistic design that could become a standard of for most firearms. Now, would I ever be able to afford a Super V XSMG? Probably not. But you know that the FPS gaming industry is definitely going to work rifles incorporating this technology into their games! I can see this gun in the arsenal of weapons in the Tom Clancy genre. Hurrah!!

  So, dgwutka won't get a Gamespy account...

  I haven't written a blog in forever, however, dgwutka has provoked me to share with all my gamer friends the fact that he won't get a Gamespy account. I have been asking him for over a month to get an account so that we can play GRAW against each other. We both own the game, so the only thing stopping us from playing against each other is the account, which is quite simple to get. I am open to suggestions as to the reason behind dgwutka's refusal to obtain an account. I have my own theory, but I would love to hear yours before I share mine.

  A prophetic comic

  

  My mom cut this out of the newspaper back in either 1990 or 91.  Back at that time, it was supposed to be a joke.  Now, we have professional gaming tutors and even people who will play a game and sell the profiles or characters via paypal or some other manner.  Think of how many people make a living as game testers as well!  Good ol' Gary Larson; a prophet of culture.
