D-Man's further adventures...

"I saw the transformers movie today. It was great! It was the best movie I've seen this year."

He's done it again. He saw the movie just to let you know if the waters are troubled. Sounds like a good review to me. I'll be going on Saturday. Enjoy!

Comics Buyer's Guide #1632

Peter David,
In response to your article in issue 1632 of the Comics Buyer's Guide. I am a fundie conservative and I really enjoyed your article in this months issue. While we come from an almost opposite set of beliefs we agree in that we have the right to voice our opinions.
I think things definitely went too far with the Imus situation. People have the right to turn him off or change the station and advertisers have the right to pull their advertising. To have him fired because of a few self-important attention-seeking morons is a shame. Let the audience decide. If his ratings plummeted due to the issue, then so be it. That's a reason to be fired. To stomp on his freedom to express his opinions, as dumb as they are, is unforgiving. There are people in this world that would have the same actions performed against conservative talk show hosts, preachers, and fundies for expressing our beliefs. I'd hate for our protections to go away like Imus' did.
I appreciate your article and the intelligence with which it was written. I'm also an avid fan of your novels and other written work. One of the things I appreciate about your writing is the passion and personality you give your characters. I didn't even know your political and social leanings until I read your articles so I'm not sure how other readers would have made that leap to say that your work is an agenda for your beliefs and leanings. I guess people see what they want to.
Sincerely,
Thomas H

Darth Vader, Your Ferrari-Baiting Lexus Is Almost Ready

Spy shooters have captured some fresh new images of Lexus' LF-A supercar on Germany's legendary Nurburgring. The aggressively-styled mule looks for all the world like what Darth Vader from Star Wars would drive, but it might just include a hybrid variant from Toyota when it launches. In either case, a gas-only V-10 version with 500+ hp is assured.What is it with articles mentioning Darth Vader today?

More Reviews from the King of Fighters

It's spring break and what better time is there to whip out the ye olde PS2 and play some games. My reviewer, the D-Man, has given me a few new reviews. I hope you enjoy.

  • Soul Calibur 3 is the best fighting game there is.
  • Tekken 5 is a good fighter and with the first three Tekken games that come with it it's a great fighter. - for those of you who are not aware, Namco included Tekken 1 - 3 with Tekken 5 (webmaster).
  • King of fighters 2006 is another great fighter.
Folks he's done it again. Another great set of reviews. Take a moment to add these games to your Gamefly account or run down to your local Gamestop/Wal-Mart and pick these up. Have a safe spring break and a great Easter.

More Reviews from the Expert

My favorite reviewer has sent me his latest commercial realizations. Please join me in perusing D-man's musings.

  • "The Nintendo DS Lite is the best hand held system out there."
  • "King Kong the Official Game for PS2 is the best video game based on a movie. If only there was a good video game based movie."
  • "Transformers the the 20 anniversary edition old but good and is probably better than this years upcoming transformer movie."
  • "The legend of Zelda four swords for GBA a great game and even better if two or more people play with you."

D-man is clear, concise, and to the point. You have to love the fact that it does not take him 1000 words to say what he means. BTW I remember seeing Transfermers: The Movie 20 years ago. Is it really that old?!

Dell powered by Linux?

Apparently Dell is going to ship computers pre-installed with a Linux distro! This is great news for the Linux Community, and we see a great awareness increase between the people who still believe that the rounded E from Internet Explorer is the INTERNET... finally!
