Coincidence? I Think Not…

September 19, 2006

Okay, now this is probably old and many may have seen it, but I hadnt and it got a very nice laugh out of me. It’s also political in nature, which I usually avoid blogging about. Anyways, here ya go…

Many people will recall that on July 8, 1947, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with five aliens aboard crashed on a sheep and cattle ranch just outside of Roswell, New Mexico. This “incident” is well known and many still claim today that is has long been covered up by the US Air Force and the Federal Government.

However, what is not as well known is that in the month of March 1948, exactly nine months after that historic day, the following individuals were born:

  • Albert Arnold Gore, Jr.
  • Hillary Rodham
  • John F. Kerry
  • William Jefferson Clinton
  • Howard Dean
  • Nancy Pelosi
  • Dianne Feinstein
  • Charles E. Schumer
  • Barbara Boxer

This piece of information has cleared up a lot of things for me… :lol: =)) :wave: :tongue:

America’s Army 2.7 Released

September 15, 2006

America’s Army has finally released the long awaited version 2.7. Unfortunately, the new version is not available in a patch and the whole game must be downloaded again. That means, a whopping download of 2.5GB.

In today’s era of broadband, that is not too bad for most – maybe a few hours. Since I happen to live deep in rural America, my host chooses to throttle back my bandwidth afte a certain amount of continuous download. So, most of the 2.5GB is downloaded at 256k. Argh… Add that to the demand for the game and its a long download. I am on my second day of downloading. I hope it finishes tonight.

There are significant changes to the game in this version. A single player or team variant has been added with computer controlled AI for the enemey. Limited use of vehicles is a newcomer too. A few new maps and a few new weapons have also been added. Hopefully, they have added a bunch of anti-hacker stuff too.

Alright, I am off as I have to update our 158th AA server to the new version…
