Resident Evil

I just posted this Resident Evil: Degeneration widget for 300 credits. You can earn free credits too!

I was asked a very interesting question today...and I now pose this question back to you:

"When they first invented the clock, who decided what time it was so they could set it?"

I know this is my first post in almost six months, so I apologize for the lame "rebirth" of my blog.  But, I'm really curious...who decided when midnight was?  I guess I could google it, but I'd prefer to hear other theories.

The wif and I went to see the new Idiana Jones movie on Monday night.  I was very disappointed in the movie.

I had expected the movie to be more along the lines of the previous three, and it was in parts, but overall it failed miserably.

The plot was horrible.  I don't want to give anything away so I won't say much.  But, c'mon, what were they thinking?  Who in their right mind read the script and said to themselves "Hey, this will be a great story to revive the Inidana Jones franchise!"

If you haven't been to the movie but want to see it I highly suggest you save a few bucks and wait for it to be at Safari or until it's released on DVD (which shouldn't be too long considering how much it sucked).

2008 MLB Predictions--Awards Edition

Since I never found time to post my 2008 MLB Predictions before the season started I'm going to do them now.  I'll start with the major award winners today and do my playoff predictions later.

Since it's already two months into the season I'm going to tweak my predictions, but I'll give you my pre-season picks first...

American League
MVP--A-Rod (how could you pick anyone else)
Cy Young--Erik Bedard (I can only imagine what his season would have been like last year had he stayed healthy all year)
Rookie of the Year--Evan Longoria (He's gonna be really good)

National League
MVP--Prince Fielder (he's ready to hit .300 w/ 50 HR this year)
Cy Young--Johan Santana (think of how good he was in the AL, and now he has one guarranteed out each time through the lineup)
Rookie of the Year--Kosuke Fukudome (although I still don't think Japanese players should qualify)

OK, since the season is two months old, here are my updated picks...

American League
MVP--Josh Hamilton (Triple Crown winner??  If it wasn't for him I'd pick Carlos Quentin)
Cy Young--Daisuke Matsuzaka (I probably should say Cliff Lee, but I don't think he can keep it up all year long)
Rookie of the Year--Jacoby Ellsbury (although Longria still could win it if he can get his batting average up)

National League
MVP--Lance Berkman (Another Triple Crown winner??  Probably not, but he'll still come close.  If Chipper hits .400 then he'll be the winner)
Cy Young--EdinsonVolquez (He was traded for Josh Hamilton this past off-season; I don't know who got the better end of that deal)
Rookie of the Year--Geovony Soto or Joey Votto (If I have to choose, I'll go with Votto over Soto just because the long season may wear on Soto more than Votto)
