Squonk's Second Life: November 2007
http://squonksl.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, November 28, 2007. Dancing and Giant Horses. I knew there were a lot of strange things in Second Life, but I have to admit, I did not expect to see a horse playing a giant Simon game. Dancing seems to be one of the major passtimes in Second Life. No, that's not me dancing, I'm the wallflower looking bored on the stool in the background. I guess we'll see if Squonk decides to cut a rug soon. Tuesday, November 27, 2007. For a concert by Skinny Shepherd. Skinny manages to do a great job playi...

Squonk's Second Life: Green Lanterns of Second Life
http://squonksl.blogspot.com/2007/12/green-lanterns-of-second-life.html
Tuesday, December 18, 2007. Green Lanterns of Second Life. Of all the superheroes, the one that intrigues me most is the Green Lantern. So I was thrilled to encounter "New Oa" in Second Life. This is the headquarters of the Green Lantern Corps. Now Lockjaw just needs a Green Lantern costume and he'll be all set. There are people selling GL costumes in world, but he needs some more Lindens (that's Second Life money) before that can happen. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Sunday, August 02, 2009. Songs with a Girls' Name in the Title #17. 17 Jolene - Dolly Parton. Songs with a Girls Name in the Title. Songs with a Girls' Name in the Title #18. 18 Cecilia - Simon and Garfunkel. Probably one of the most upbeat songs about being dumped. The unique rhythm, which was supposedly achieved by Paul and Arty slapping their legs while someone else banged on a piano bench, points to the African influence Simon would explore on later albums like "Graceland.".

Squonk: Early Oscar Predictions
http://squonkblog.blogspot.com/2010/02/early-oscar-predictions.html
Wednesday, February 03, 2010. The Oscar nominees were announced yesterday. Once again I'm having a bit of a contest at my office to see who can pick the most winners. Things are a bit different this year with ten nominees in the Best Picture category, so it'll be a bit harder to pick the winner. Still, here are my early predictions, still subject to change as we see how the wind blows over the next few weeks. Jeff Bridges - Crazy Heart. George Clooney - Up in the Air. Colin Firth - A Single Man. Sidibe h...

Squonk: We are the World...Again
http://squonkblog.blogspot.com/2010/02/we-are-worldagain.html
Saturday, February 13, 2010. We are the World.Again. I remember the album cover of the original "We are the World" which featured a group photo of the stars involved and an alphabetical listing of their names beneath. What always stuck out in my mind is that the first name on that alphabetical list was someone we don't think of as a singer.Dan Aykroyd! As I'm watching the video for the new song last night, I noticed a few more famous faces carrying on the "huh? We are the World. Denver, CO, United States.

Monday, February 15, 2010. Cartoon a Day: Hockey Homicide. Directed by Jack Kinney. Available on: Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Goofy. Well folks, life got crazy, so "Cartoon a Day" didn't happen for quite a while. But with the Winter Olympics going on, I just couldn't resist doing a review of a great cartoon that celebrates a great winter sport.the Goofy short, "Hockey Homicide." In my opinion, this may be the best of Goofy's staring vehicles. Through it all you can see that while the makers of t...

Sunday, November 15, 2009. Guilty Pleasure 9: The Legend of Billie Jean. Summer 1986 was when cable TV first came to Wheaton, IL. So the movies that we watched endlessly on cable that summer were the films out in theaters the previous summer.including one of 1985's big bombs, " The Legend of Billie Jean. It stars Helen Slater. The story is really pretty silly. These "criminals" hang out in a distinct looking vehicle, in wide open spaces, yet nobody seems to be able to find them. The movie is just...Or th...

Monday, February 15, 2010. Our Olympics - Snowboard Cross. The next round of our Mario and Sonic Winter Olympics continued tonight with our chosen sport matching up with what was on TV.Snowboard Cross. In this event, the players shake the Wii-mote to begin and then turn it move their snowboarder around the curves. On the jumps, you need to move the Wii-mote up and then try to do tricks while in the air. This gives and extra speed burst when landing. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Squonk on the Web.
