Life of a Web Programmer

I’ve been hectically trying to catch up to be able to enjoy the season primer of Lost next week. So the past couple of days and nights, I’ve caught up to season 2, episode 19. I know I have a long ways to go, but hopefully ABC or Hulu.com will post the new episodes as soon as they are broadcasted.

So far, everyone on the Island has had it for 48 days and everything is about to “hit the fan.” Hopefully tonight, I’ll be able to finish the last part of season 2. Not too sure about the “Dharma Initiative”; seems like a “cult” to me. Who knows? I think I’m about to be confused outta my mind and will be reading up the forums to try to understand all the chaos that is Lost

Pwn some snipers in this video on Underpass. This map is so sniper heavy, but I do some work with my Killstreaks and the Akimbo Rangers, and the FTW triple kill at the end of the video. I have some more uploads coming soon, sorry this time I decide to keep out the commentary and just let the gameplay speak for itself…

Also I’ll try to be streaming live on justin.tv, weeknight from 8-12PM CST, if y’all want to see me in action…you can see it on my dedicated streams page or at justin.tv…

So tonight, Catherine and I are playing some Geometry Wars. I’ve racked up a pretty descent score of 180,000 or so with some very nifty maneuvers. Catherine, in her competitive spirit, is determine to beat that score. So while I’m writing this post (and streaming her attempts), Catherine has been rage quitting 3 out of the 4 times she plays a round.

“OMG! WTF! Are you kidding me!” these three phrases are becoming all too familiar; I even heard a “PWNED!” I would love to see her play some CoDMW2 or Halo. Hey, maybe I could get some gameplay/commentary on the youtube. Great idea

Apparently there’s a hack going around where your XP and Prestige ranking will reset back to Level 1 (all will be lost from all your hard work and sleepless nights). So PainCakesxX has provided for us a quick way to exit MW2 without you losing all of your XP and Prestige rankings…

Just exit the game by pulling up your Dashboard menu, and enter Dashboard…nothing will be affected by the hack, and you will be able to return to normal gaming. If you don’t exit via Dashboard, all your stats will reset (no bueno). Here’s the video posted on PainCakesxX youtube channel:

Catherine is at it again, with live gameplay commentary. This has been the highest score she’s achieve since starting to play Geometry Wars, please disregard my douchey comments early on in the video, they are quickly shut up by this fantastic display of skill, wits, and know-how. Check it out here…

I forgot how awesome the Lego Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures. Played that all weekend long with Cat and we had a great time smacking Legos around and solving Lego puzzles. We beat the game last night, all streamed on justin.tv. I remember Lego and LucasArts publishing their Star Wars renditions, so I bought the Lego Star Wars: The Complete Saga today of newegg.com. w00t++

If you’ve been living under a rock the past week or so, NBC has decided to push Jay Leno’s show, the aptly named The Jay Leno Show, to the 11:35PM time slot which has been The Tonight Show’s time slot for 60 years. This has, as you would expect, caused some ill-fainted feelings towards NBC by most of the current host’s fans, Conan O’brien.

It has been rumored that Conan O’brien will have talks with FOX to help start the broadcasting network first late night talk show. In my opinion, Conan would be a great fit with the likes of FOX, considering Conan was a writer for The Simpsons. FOX has been known to breed great comedy, and this would allow Conan to really push the limits he has done so well with The Late Show with Conan O’brien and The Tonight Show.

Wha what…this is my first and certainly not the last video I’ve capture of myself owning some noobs in some Modern Warfare 2…please check it out here and rate…I also have some lined up in the near future so if you like what you see here, please subscribe to my youtube channel

Catherine does some damage on some Geometry Wars last night with my new capture card. Been playing around with my video and audio settings and finally got it working with my Macbook. Had some issues though trying to stream live on ustream.tv last night, had some lag issues on the MW2 server, but other than that we had some fun. So take a look…I wish I recorded her play by play analysis while she was pwning some geometric shapes

Here’s a few quick motivational posters I’ve created or found that really hit an accord with my daily living…

More on the way…
