BioDiesel

With gas prices at an all time high BioDiesel is looking pretty damn nice. Since their invention diesels have been praised as being more efficient and longer lasting then their gasoline burning brethren. But mainly due to bad press and the lack of quality fuel in the USA diesels are very few and far between when it comes to consumer cars. I have a feeling that is about to change. With VW cranking out its Jetta TDI that almost gets 50 mpg and jeep releasing a new diesel I think we might just see a change in the way the American people view diesels. BioDiesel might not be the best solution for alternative fuel, but its a good start. People in Europe have know this for years, but we are just starting to understand. One of the best parts about BioDiesel? You can make it yourself! As with everything sweet there are problems, my biggest problem right now is that I don't own a diesel to use the fuel I want to make. Only time will tell if this is an obstacle I can overcome. Man I want my "Powered by Animal Fat" bumper sticker.

Dead Rising (fun but short demo)

Wow, I downloaded this one a while ago. For some reason I just haven't wanted to play it. Its probably just the genre. Its been so over done, you can only take some many crazy scenarios of people coming back to life after being killed by other dead people only interested in eating live people. Well last night I was bored out of my mind! So i fired it up. I had a good time smashing and shooting a tearing up zombies. Interactive undead killing can be fun! So if you can, give it a try :- )

Xbox 360 HD-DVD

I have been thinking about shelling out some money for a new HD-DVD player. Sure I know the format war is just starting, but I cant help that im addicted to toys. For a while I have been using the xbox 360 as an DVD player, to be honest its very good at it. The menus are easy to use and they look cool . Plus it works with my Logitech 880 remote. Now it appears I will have another option, HD-DVD drive for my xbox. It sounds like its going to be a while before its out (oct, nov) but hey its worth the wait.
