  Gamespot's All Time Greatest Hero Contest

  This is probably nothing new, and I'm not trying to sound like a sore loser, lately I've been feeling like the whole thing was rigged from the start to guarentee that either Mario or Link would take the top spot, even though there were far better characters (Gorden Freeman, Kratos, Master Chief, Cloud, and Ryu Hyabusa for example) on the list. The whole contest has lately been giving Mario and Link a free ride, despite the fact that many of their games tell the same story over and over again, reusing the exact same plot. While I say congragulations to who ever wins in the end, it's not right that Mario or Link be given free rides in every contest just because of their legacies.

  First Horse Show

  I managed to score a spot on my University's Horseback Riding Team a few weeks ago, and today I had the chance to compete in my first ever Horse Show. While I felt I could do better, I still managed to do pretty good, winning two third place ribbons and a fourth place ribbon for my three events, hopefully I can do better in the competition up in Wilmington in October.

  Nintendo Famicom

  Well I finally did it, with the help of one of my friends I managed to track down one of the holy grails of Nintendo fandom, the Nintendo Famicom, better known to North American Gamers as the Nintendo Entertainment System. The one thing that surprised me the most about the Famicom is thatit WORKS in North America, with out requiring adaptors. Now all I need to do is track down somemore games.
