Create a game

Last week in class we discussed how games are put together and were allowed to put our own personal spin on a classic game such as Chess.  My team decided to turn the board diagonally and strategically place pawns and pieces where it would resemble a battlefield.  No more would you have to preserve your troops, this game we designed was meant to be bloody all the way through till you reached the king.  We kept that one essential of the original game, where no king shall be slaign,  the original format in which the king must be check mated was kept per order of our teacher.  A wealth of feedback was given by our classmates who got to participate first hand at our creation.  It went fairly smoothly because we didn’t take to much away from the game and yet we still had a new look at it.  More or less, we discovered that creating a game is a hard process, Not only do you have to come up with something creative, but the replay value of it must be a hit in order for it to be a success.

 

A French connection

A few years ago when my Ftaher was still alive he had 2 friends visit from Paris.  They stayed at our house for several days and toured the upper east coast of America together.  Just recently because of this web-blog, that individual found me and just got back In Touch with me.  Crazy how this whole internet keeps us around long enough to find eachother…Keeping in touch.

Keeping in touch

The words keeping in touch have a lot of meanings to me, the one that sticks out the most would be that we’re all one touch away from eachother.  The internet and cell phones make keeping in touch with people very easy now a days.  However it all gets lost in translation when you add in the little ( LOL, or the brb, or the w/e)  Short hand for computer language has taken a new spin and people are coming up with new and innovative ways of communicating with eachother.  Right now I am keeping in touch with the rest of my class by sharing my views on Keeping in touch.  All this madness stems from a long lost friend that I’ve recently made contact with, however, he will be spending a few years behind prison bars, nonetheless we kept in touch.  The irony of this all is now we will have to revert to using paper and pencil to communicate. 

Give me a camera!!!! I’ll do anything

THis clip was taken in the Indian Ocean last year while I was serving in Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF).  Mind you a few days before this I was on a fishing boat and had a 90 pound Yellow Fin Tuna bit in half by a Shark.  So needless to say, if you give me a camera and give me a challenge I’ll do it for the sake of NECrazy Boat jump

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE are the Champions my friends

I would like to thank the thousands of haters out there that didn’t believe the NY Giants could win the superbowl.  Throughout the madness and mayhem of tv coverage and overhead angles, my cell phone was blowing up with text messages until the final quarter….that is when the lights went out for New Englnad and every replay camera in the world couldn’t help them salvage their perfect season.  So a toast to my fellow Giants fans, now we could talk all the SH_T we want. P.S. there is supposed to be a I where the blank is between the SH and the T.  Ok I got to go.
