			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Almost two years ago <a href="http://www.ibiblio.org/dlucas/2006/04/24/monday-awesomeness/">I talked about Paul Robertson&#8217;s Pirate Baby&#8217;s Cabana Battle Street Fight 2006</a>, an animated short made in the style of side-scrolling 2D fighter.  Now you know that was chock full of ultra-violent awesomeness, but what if I were to tell you that Paul Robertson is back with even more eye candy?  Candy that not only brings the same side-scrolling animation and blood, but even more pop culture references, religious references, and a fantastic sound track?</p>
<p>Well, Mr. Robertson has gone and done it.  Check out <a href="http://probertson.livejournal.com/">KINGS OF POWER 4 BILLION %</a>! (warning&#8230; this really isn&#8217;t for the squemish.  Yeah, it&#8217;s just 2D sprite violence, but it&#8217;s pretty gory even for 2D sprites&#8230; especially the final battle).</p>
<p>Trailer below.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>that&#8217;s not quite as catchy.</p>
<p>I am going down to southern Florida for a few days though and to save money (compared to flying) and sanity (compared to driving) Dawne and I are taking the train.  I&#8217;ve got all my books and movies ready for the 19-hour long trip but it occurred to me that I would be even more content if I could just use my laptop for the whole trip.</p>
<p>Which made me wonder, do US passenger trains even have wifi?  And if not, why?  A quick google search <a href="http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&#038;rls=en&#038;q=amtrak+and+wifi&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;oe=UTF-8">reveals</a> that people have been asking this question for years.  There seems to be some Amtrak <em>stations</em> up in the Northeast that have T Mobile hotspots, but nothing on the trains.  This boggles the mind.  I know that the train business is in dire straits and all, but adding the ability to work while I sit on the train would make the decision between flying regionally or taking the train simple.  Sure, you&#8217;d get to your destination faster on a plane (security hassles notwithstanding) but you&#8217;d be actually getting stuff done on a train.  What busy business person wouldn&#8217;t take that opportunity?  Sounds like a good way to draw some of those passengers away from the cheap-o airlines&#8230;</p>
<p>Regardless, I&#8217;m still taking my laptop with me on the train if for nothing else the abilities to watch a movie on something other than an ipod screen, but man I would love the chance to play online games for 19 hours&#8230;</p>

<p>I expressed my doubts that the Uwe Boll directed Dungeon Siege film was real, but no: it most certainly exists.  It even has a <a href="http://inthenameoftheking.com/">site and a trailer</a>, though it&#8217;s missing Burt Reynolds.  What it does have is a more-than-just-a-passing resemblance to Lord of the Rings.  I mean, if I didn&#8217;t know better I&#8217;d say Uwe straight up stole some of the models and story boards from LoTR.</p>
<p>Still baffled why people give this man money to make movies&#8230;</p>
