Spore

GameStop is having a FREAKING HUGE SALE that only lasts until the second! Buy buy buy! Hundreds of games under $20!!!!

Today, I'm going to get Spore. In case you didn't know, Spore is one of the biggest games ever. It allows you to create and run a whole entire species. It's like the ultimate life simulator. It will be awesome.



EDIT: Never mind. I found out it's $40, which is still pretty expensive. Now I'm passing the time playing demos of World of Goo and Wallace and Gromit: Fright of the Bumble Bees and the full episode of Sam & Max: Abe Lincoln Must Die! Fun, huh? :P

Walmart Neighborhood Market

I just remembered something from my trip to Dallas I thought I might show you.
Did anyone know there was such a thing as the Walmart Neighborhood Market? I had never heard of them before, until we went there at our trip to Dallas. It's apparently a Walmart Supercenter with all the Walmart stuff taken out. So, really, it's just a grocery store. I had never seen these before, and I thought it was so interesting that Walmart, which is really just a generic department store, is making money off of a branch off a branch. Walmart never intended to sell food at the Walmart, but that's what they do at the Supercenters, just because it could make more money. Now, they're rolling out something that, if the Supercenters weren't even made, would have nothing to do with Walmart.

And get this: They're making something else that's the same thing! The new "Marketside" is the same thing as the Walmart Neighborhood Market, but it doesn't carry the Walmart label. Weird, huh?

Today's REAL Blog Post - Belated Anniversary

First of all, I just wanted to say happy vera belated birthday to my blog. A couple years ago, I made four posts. One told readers that Wal★Mart sucked, and tried to explain why. Now, I explain further...

The year was... Uh... 2007... I was in the grade of the fifths. *coughcough* Ok, so, in 5th grade, for our "learn-how-to-type" class, we had to make a newsletter about something interesting. Or... Some interesting things. So, I wrote about a TV show I had seen on PBS, showing how Wal★Mart killed off the Rubbermaid brand. I thought the topic was controversial, yet sense-makeable, so I picked it as my topic. Now, around that same time, I probably made this blog... Or, at least its counterpart. So, I decided to try and post my views there. Unfortunatly, the post wasn't being graded, so I made little effort to explain my opinion. Evenually, the post got smothered with other classics, such as the "It Stink's To Grow Up!" and "It's The End of the Blog As We Know It..." Anyway, there you go.

Another post was about how video game companies should all exchange positions every few years, and we could vote on top dog. This post just showed how broken my imagination was, and how freakin' bored I was at the time. It only exemplified the fact that my life was really mundane, and my only hope was this small blog. My first post wasn't really attracting readers either, but I was impatient to see it go down. In other word, this was just another failed attempt at at least 3.5 seconds of fame.

My third post of the day tried to throw a celebrity into the mix, and hope that some viewership came out of it. All it did was show that I really didn't know the celebrity (or how to speel) all that much either.

My fourth, and quite honestly first, post told all 'yalls to come here, where teh REAL partyz at! *coughcough*

So anyway, there's another insight to my dull life. Hoping for some more blog action tomorrow.
