Hey there people im sorry there has been a blogging lapse but im on vacation in mexico atm so BACK OFF.
Anyways I finally found a hotel with the internet so im going to offer you a few quick reflections on my summer so far.

Television - all the classy hotels have cable which means I have been able to watch stuff like HBO, ESPN and CNN which we dont get in England. PEOPLE OF AMERICA. Your TV sucks.

Music - MTV LA contains a ton of junky american emo music which i have never heard before... is that all you guys listen too? Whiney teenagers? But also there aint many British bands on there apart from Coldplay and U2 and stuff (VH1) so I thought I would shout out a few decent British bands so you can educate yourselves. I dont know what stuff is popular in the USA so let me know if you have heard of any of the following:

Rock Stuff

  • Bloc Party
  • Arcade Fire

Rap/Hip Hop/Electric I dont know, genres confuse me.
  • The Streets
  • Plan B
  • Goldie Lookin Chain
  • Audio Bullys

If you want to know what English youth culture is really like in london then Plan B, The Streets and Audio Bullys are top dog. Urban poetry is the way forward.
(Goldie Lookin Chain are jokes, they will crack you up)

I have noticed quite a stong British presence on the Giantbomb site, more so than at other sites, but maybe I´m just picking up on it more because the community elements are much stronger here. Time Will tell.

Anyways While Ive been away ive been missing my Xbox 360. Also I´m looking forward to heading back to Azeroth when I return on Sunday. I will have 2 months of freedon left to live so I may as well clock some Wow time.

Lastly I am now the proud owner of 3 wiki points for adding the concept DEATH. Mwahahahahaha, it was so simple. Although my SEX submission did indeed get rejected...
