Glenn's Life

Yes, I too feel that Adam Lambert should have won American Idol, but it really doesn’t matter.

I purchased his new CD and overall it’s pretty good.  As with most albums there are songs I don’t like, but there are a few that I really like.  My favorites would have to be “Whataya Want from Me”, “Soaked” and “Time for Miracles”.

Just my two cents,

Yesterday Assassin’s Creed 2 was released and I received my copy.  I have only played a little but (as expected) I really like it.  They got rid of a few annoying issues that were in the first version and added some more entertaining aspects.

I like the fact that you can hire a group of people to help you get past guards, purchase weapons and armor, earn (of steal) money and decrease your notoriety so you are not constantly fighting.  I also like the new way of blending into the crowd.

Of course, the graphics have improved and there are many more fighting maneuvers, but that was to be expected.  Overall, I’m very pleased with this release and can’t wait for my headache to go away so I can play more.

Hi all,

I’ve been wanting a laptop for a while and I finally purchased one.  This is actually the first computer I’ve ever purchased for myself; all others I’ve had I assembled.

It’s an HP Pavilion with the following specs:

• Windows 7 Professional
• 17.3″ LCD LED display
• Intel Core i7 (quad core) processor
• 4 GB RAM
• 1GB NVidia graphics
• integrated HD TV tuner
• wireless N with Bluetooth

The sound quality from the build-in speakers is not great, but then I didn’t expect it to be.  Using headphones it sounds quite good.

Overall I’m very impressed with it.  Visual Studio runs quite a bit faster, which is the most important thing for me.  Here are a couple photos:

Hi,

It’s been a while since my last post so I’ll just give a quick update.

…

Yeah, that’s about it.  Nothing exciting going on here.  I’m just glad it hasn’t been really cold yet.

There is a YouTube video I saw that gave me a big laugh.  It’s not for everyone and definitely not for kids.  You can see it here:
