Ahhh the rain is back for a few days, once again the green stuff needs it around here, or should I say the yellow burned stuff :p

Ok I'm going to talk about what's on the reality tube for the hell of it:

BIG BROTHER 5: I am not a woman, I do not understand this show, and my wife seems to love it. It was mildly interesting the first season or two but I really hate the people on it and couldn't care less, it's just the same politics as always...

AMAZING RACE: This show is in its 5th season and I must say when premiered, I thought it was the best Reality TV had to offer, now in its 5th season. I still watch it but the show has degraded into "who's got the last airline ticket" for half the show and recycled challenges and locations for the rest..

LAST COMIC STANDING: Besides some initial controversy over the earlier judging process, this 2nd season is turning out pretty good, its something different at least. I'm hoping Alonzo takes this one.

Yes, Doom3 is making its way to store shelves as we speak, don't be too excited, early indications are another room-to-room horror shooter with a fresh coat of paint that you wont enjoy to its fullest without spending 500$ for a video card... But if you got the gear, it should be a good fragfest and another huge step forward in gaming.
