• The console (obviously)
• Controller (sold separately for 49.99, wireless of course) the only thing is, are they going to sell black rechargeable batteries, it sure will suck if they don't...
• 120 GB hard drive (sold separately for 179.99) regular color i believe judging from the picture...
• Headset
• An HDMI cable, for those of you, lucky bastards, to own one of these tv's/Home teathers. Oh, its black too ;)
• A SILVER xbox live membership (really, i get this too??? FOR FREE??? May god protect you from all harm in the upcoming Apocalypse, MS)
• One mont of gold.
• Oh yes, they will sell the play & charge kit (19.99) and batteries(11.99), both in black.

I would buy this bastard if i had the cashiiin, I do not, DAMN.... Darth Pupa, would you buy this, even if it's black? Clan del Onyx eh?!

Eclipsed by the Moon

Ok, i have taken too much time already for just two videos that I can't upload to Youtube, as frustrating as it is and the fact that they are cool (you could see the concert thru my eyes), I just can't wait to share these thoughts with you, my dear IR.

This past March 2, 2007, a living legend came to Monterrey for the first time (i believe). His name IS Roger Waters and the stadium where the concert took place is now considered holy ground (at least by me), we're just waiting for the paperwork.

Anyway, this is the best concert I've been in. Stereo sound, amazing bass, hypnotic visuals. I mean, in Dark Side of the Moon, laughter would come from behind you, I have never heard this in a concert before. The pig, whose name I have forgotten was realesed. This concert was not just a concert, it was The Concert by which upcoming events shall be measured.

The setlist is as follows:

Act I

• In the Flesh
• Mother
• Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun
• Shine on you Crazy Diamond
• Have a Cigar
• Wish you Were Here
• Southampton Dock
• The Fletcher Memorial Home

300

I am not going to go deep within the story, only that this is the best epic/action movie of the year 2007. Based on the Battle of Thermopylae interpreted by Frank Miller (you might remember him as the creator of the Sin City story, from which the movie of the same name was based on) in which 300 spartans stood against a vast Persian army.

You're "wowed" with every scene, the score is truly amazing and the photography is, well, just spectacular. There are no 'slow' scenes and the dialogues make you say "yeah!". Definitely an I-have-watched-it-X-times movie.

Just go and watch it! And watch it again and again! I know I will...

A drunk Squirrel, some Poker and Tenori-on

Three youtube videos (which i hope is not closed anytime soon, because of the Viacom lawsuits(damn lawyers)) that I found interesting if not hilarious. One of them, the poker one, i have not watched it, due to the fact that almost everyone in the company I work for can watch my screen from a very long distance. Anyway, the squirrel one is kind of funny, and the Tenori-on I'm sure many musicians will kill each other for this one-thousand-dollars-touch-screen gadget, developed by Toshio Iwai, the brain behid the Nintendo DS.

Cheers.

Tenori-on

The Road to Awe...

This movie by Aranofsky is truly a masterpiece. The setting, the story, the photography, the musical score, the actors and their acting. A lot of people didn't like this movie and, really, it's no shocker as they have grown accustomed to commercial Hollywood films the likes of Titanic.

The movie has a very surreal environment, as if it's taking place in a dream. Fragments of different stories intertwine to reveal a whole. The main characters are the same in the different stories. Different stories? Yes, but only one theme. They all have a mission a bit different from the other, but somehow they are all connected to the tree of life. Of course they are connected through Izzy's manuscript, but the connection goes beyond this one. Izzy is Tommy's wife in the 'real' story, the other two stories originate in Izzy's telling about the search for the tree of life beginning in Spain, and according to her, ending in the future. They all lose their loved ones in the search for the 'tree,' as it may be the cure for cancer, the search for a fabled tree or the quest to resuscitate it.

In any case, death is the beginning to life. But still I don't quite get this movie. Watch it, think obout it and comment here if you have another opinion of the movie.

Before i post the Roger Waters review, here's this...

Been a while since I wrote anything here, but these past coulpe of weeks have been, how should I put it?, very interesting. First of all, I'm still working on the Roger Waters post-concert blog. I can't upload two (of four) videos I shot to Youtube, which is really frustrating. Second, i haven't had the time to write a full review of the concert: my time is not mine anymore. Third and most dissapointing, frustrating, angering (is this a word?), is the fact that ALL of the tickets for the Héroes del Silencio show in Mexico City are sold. No show for me, DAMN YOU STALIN!!!!

Now, if you have an extra ticket for the show (Oct 6,07) and a kind soul, will you sell it to me? I need two, one for my girl and one for me. I shall be forever in debt, but justice will be done to those whose kind hearts were.... DAMN YOU STALIN!!!!

Anyway, if you have any spare tickets that you would like to sell, drop me a comment, and i will answer like lightning coming through thick clouds.

I don´t want to leave this post imageless so here's my view (i moved more to the center afterwards) of the Roger Waters concert.

Bless you, Roger for the gift of your music to the world!!
