I’ve noticed lately that my bank account has been dwindling lately, and was considering making possum.kicks-ass.org and possumism.net partially supported by Google AdSense. It would follow the site’s theme, and whatnot, and wouldn’t be too intrusive. If anyone objects, please make it clear.

Beat Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Monday, November 27th, 2006

Sorry I’ve been away for so long; I seem to have gotten absorbed in a little game called Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wikipedia contains spoilers) on the Wii. I waited about five years for this release and I’ve had it reserved for over a year. Only problem was that nobody was offering […]

Myspace Security Announcement

Thursday, November 9th, 2006

As I’m sure I’ve made clear before, I don’t like Myspace all that much. I check my account about once a month. Don’t get me wrong; there are a lot of cool people there and (I suppose) it’s awesome for networking. But of course, many users are ignorant of the inherent risks […]
