Dark Sector
I picked up Dark Sector from Amazon for a steal recently thanks to my brother. The game is pretty gorgeous and quite a bit bloody. There is a lot of dark moody atmosphere to it so far, reminding me a bit of the Darkness game. So far, I've only gotten through the prologue, setting up my character and I can say its got good and bad points so far.

Sandwich Maker
Man, I forgot how great a sandwich maker is. I decided to was time to use up some of the whitebread I had before it went bad, so I opted for my own versions of hot pockets. A nice healthy dollop of pizza sauce and pepporoni between two slices of bread, pop them into the sandwich maker, few minutes later, homemade pizza sandwiches. Of course, that's about the only thing I've ever made with the device, but it's still one of my favorites.

Bachelor Chow
It's pretty sad, living on my own means I tend to waste food. I buy stuff and then forget about it. Since I don't cook that often, some items just sit until the mood hits me and by then, they might have hit the expiration date. For example, I cleaned some today and got rid of some stuff that was too old. I had a whole thing of syrup that was from years ago, because I just haven't been in the mood for pancake or waffles. I need to just take the time and finish off anything I currently have before I go shopping again and then just buy things I know I'll be eatting soon enough. Like Hot pockets. Sad, but true. At least that way they won't go to waste.

Hancock
We decided to go check out Hancock today since it just came out and the previews looked great. The first trailer presented a great premise, a reluctant superhero that didn't care about what his public thought of him. The second trailer revealed that later he makes a turn and becomes more of a role model type of hero, a redemption of sorts. Both were hilarious and showed Will Smith really bringing the Hancock character some life. The movie itself was a bit more of a mixed bag.
