By now, you have all probably heard about Janet Jacksons boob show during the half time performance of the Superbowl. Did you know that Tivo said it was the most watched thing ever recorded in the history of Tivo?
What I bet you havent heard is the VFW is ticked off at Kick Rock for cutting an American Flag down the center and wearing it as a poncho during his performance.

The most loathsome and malevolent of creatures have settled here. Sleepless malice keeps them locked in eternal conflict, so that even the river stinks of death.

Fans eagerly awaiting the launch of Dungeons & Dragons Online from Turbine entertainment would be very interested in this interview from Warcry.
Although WoW has my attention, I can not tell you how excited I am to see D&D coming to a true MMORPG Universe. Of course, I am a bit biased as an ex-player of AOLs NeverWinter Nights.

Thanks to -*[GRB]*- Sarge for pointing out this cool interview with Finger Eleven. They have a really great album right now, including the single One Thing. If we still had a music station, I would deffinately have this song in heavy rotation.

Id like to congratulate Warner Brothers music for being the first record label to actually get it. Dont get me wrong, I still think all major record labels are scum and I will as long as they support the RIAA.
MTV.com has the full scoop on Waner Bros. releasing a new band called The Secret Machines debut album on the internet 4 months before you can buy it in stores. Here is small snipet from the article:
Even when adopting the most drastic measures, record labels seem helpless to prevent albums from surfacing online before their release dates. So now one label is taking the “if you cant beat em, join em” approach.
Get the rest at MTV.com.
On a side note, you can hear the album streaming on the official The Secret Machines website. Im listening to it now. Interesting stuff…. Continue reading Has Hell Frozen Over?

Heh… Yeah… Well keep waiting!
Once again we have a “release date” for Half-Life 2… I put it in quotes for a reason… I think that the term “release date” is not real anymore…
Any who… The new release date is Spring 2005, with the original release date being Sept. 30, 2003.
So, once again… We will wait… And we may get a whole new release date again… Maybe the game will come out with a bonus CD of Duke Nukem 4 Ever!

Bungie is reporting that Halo 2 will not ship before Fall 2004. While EB and Gamestop still have it listed as June 1. My money is on Bungies date.
I would like to thank everyone who dropped by for our Friday Night Fights – Custom Map Night last night. It was pure dumb luck that the 1.6 patch came out the same night as our event, but what can you do.
Even so, it was a lot of fun because you made it so. Our next event will be February 27th, 2004. Id like to thank the guys from clan {pdx} for dropping by.
We did notice a lot and I mean a lot of people trying to connect, but getting disconnected. If you installed the 1.6 patch, then that was the problem, but if you had 1.5 and had any problems, please drop by our Technical Support Forums and let us know what happened. We would be happy to help you so the next time you can join us. It will also help us figure out how why this was happening.
Ill give a quick recap of the maps, just click Read More… Anyone that played, leave your comments as well. Continue reading Friday Night Fights – The Recap
