March Madness

Its one of my favorite times of the year, the NCAA tournament to crown the College Basketball champion, more commonly known as March Madness. Every year in mid March there is a 64 team single elimination tournament held to determine the champion, and it always choc full of upsets and buzzer beaters. I usually enter various NCAA pools where you pick the winners of each game, and whoever has the most points at the end wins all the money.

It was a good year for the Philly teams as all of our "Big 3" teams made it to the dance (St. Josephs, Temple, and Villanova). I think this is the first time all 3 made it in nearly a decade. Sadly Temple already lost today, but the other two play on Friday and I think they will both win. Unfortunately for me I will be in work during both games so I won't get to see either team play ; ;. This year is also the first time in as long as I can remember that I didn't enter any money pools. I blame it on me being sick the last few days and a crappy work schedule. Oh well, I still filled one out for myself so at least I can see how well I do anyway.

In FFXI they finally had the first big version update for the sadly underwhelming Wings of the Goddess expansion. The did all kinds of things such as opening up new areas, job adjustments, and adding new quests (no new mission wtf ><). The job adjustments didn't affect me much since I don't play any of them, and the new areas were mildly interesting at best. No really great merit camps and they put the Beastmen fortifications right smack in the middle of normal aggroing mobs (fucking retarded). But the biggest thing that caught my eye

**SPOILER**











After 6 years of FFXI's existence there is FINALLY a male Mithra. I would link a pic but I don't want to spoil it for you guys since I know you haven't seen him yet.





*** END SPOILER ***



Other than that its pretty much same old same old. I have started to get the phone calls from Obama and Hillary camps trying to get me to register Democrat for the Primary. While I don't really mind it (yet) I'm sure in the next 30 days I'm gonna want to shoot someone because of it lol.

Well thats it for now, see you later.
