Max's Power Poll: 26th February, 2007
I've gotten literally no emails asking me to do a power poll of something. To be fair, I've gotten no emails whatsoever. I won't list it here, as I would be spammed. And not just by spam bots, one would presume.
But this is going to be a Power Poll of... well, I haven't really thought about that. Hmm...
All right...
OK, that was pointless. But, hey, I'll do one some day. Maybe when College Football starts back up, they'd be more useful...

Live, from some Living Room, it's the Halo Theme!
Pretty good. I was going to write pretty cool, but then I realised it's people playing the theme music from a video game. So I stopped.

Happy, guys?
There you go, after a week of posting very little I post three things within the space of an hour. Now, number of readers, RISE FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL!
Thank God I live in America... wait

An egyptian blogger was sentenced to four years in prison due to posts on his blog which insulted both Islam and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. Abdel Karim Suleiman, a 22-year-old former law student, was convicted for eight different postings he made to his blog.
I don't have much else to say about this, other than thank God I don't live in Egypt. Because if I did, I'd get arrested for thanking God on my blog.

Haw Haw!
The ABA... what the hell is the ABA? The Acolyte Beer-Drinking Agency? Anyways, the ABA is introducing a new franchise next season, located in Syracuse (because we know how well New York basketball teams play) with the nickname, "the Bullies." Of course, this annoys some people:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070222/ap_on_fe_st/bko_syracuse_bullies
People who run anti-bullying programs are crying foul over the Bullies name. They say when children attend the games, they'll get the wrong idea that bullies are cool... the director of one Syracuse group, Jenna's Foundation for Non-Violence, says the team name goes against everything anti-bullying educators are trying to get across to kids.
Shut up. Just, shut up. Everyone's been bullied. Having a team in the ABA - not the NBA, the ABA - nicknamed the Bullies is not going to make people bully people. Do you go around starting fires due to the Miami Heat? Flooding places due to the Los Angeles Lakers? Rampaging through china stores due to the Chicago Bulls?
Didn't think so.
How to Kill A Brand
Written and performed by Doc Adams from http://www.gamercastnetwork.com (a site for some great gaming podcasts, by the way), How to Kill A Brand is a song which explains how Sony killed their brand by making the sucky Playstation 3. Take a listen, it's pretty good.

Which Sports Car Are You?
I'm a Lamborghini Murcielago!
You're not subtle, but you don't want to be. Fast, loud, and dramatic, you want people to notice you, and then get out of the way. In a world full of sheep, you're a raging bull.
Take the Which Sports Car Are You? quiz.

Appalachian State promotional video: The running diary
After posting the video, I'm now going to record my thoughts about it while watching it. Doesn't that sound like fun!
For reference, here's the video again:
(Time is counting down)
2:12 - In the beginning... horrible word-art animation was abundant.
2:07 - Ooh, it's going places? They've figured out how to make large masses of land move! Cool!
1:59 - Look at those smiling faces. It's so cute it just makes you want to barf.
Wait, no, it doesn't.
1:53 - Your dreeeeeeeeeams come truuuuuuuuuue!
1:44 - Chorus time! Sing it with me!
HOT! HOT! HOT!
HOT! HOT! HOT!
Appalachian's HOT HOT HOT!
1:42 - Book returning is HOT HOT HOT!
1:37 - Christ, how big of douchebags are these guys?
1:30 - Oh yeah! Nothing I love more than an extended guitar solo!
1:25 - Guitar still going... nerd alert!
1:21 - Saxomophone! Fuck yes!
1:16 - And the keyboard! This is practically orgasmic!
1:04 - This being a bit more appropriately hot.
1:00 - Her hair is HOT HOT HOT!
0:56 - Why is everyone standing and cheering in what appears to be a cinema?
0:54 - FIRE! HOT HOT HOT!
0:49 - A tradition of old men in suits, no doubt.
0:47 - What in the hell does "speaking the language of a brave new year," mean? That makes no sense, whatsoever! You can't speak the language of a year, nor can a year be brave!
0:43 - Right, because the world wasn't aware of a new day dawning, and needs mountain men from the 80's to tell them about it.
0:40 - MountAINeer! (high note, w00t!)
0:38 - Sweet zombie jesus, what the hell is happening here? Is she having a seizure? Are we sure she's OK?
0:36 - No, you don't have the best students and teachers in the country. That's just boastful.
0:33 - Loyal alumni, we've got a lot? (That girl looks like Kari Byron or whatever her name is from Mythbusters.)
0:30 - Proud as a peacock. Yeah.
0:25 - Scary mascot, football... this video has got everything.
0:23 - And to reinforce the point, flaming words! HOT HOT HOT!
0:21 - Now there's a guy going OOOOHHHHHHHHHHH in the background.
0:13 - Better...
0:08 - Whoa! A change up! Even when the weather is COLD COLD COLD! Appalachian is...
HOT HOT HOT!
(Nice effect. NOT NOT NOT!)

Appalachian is still HOT, HOT, HOT!
I have no doubts that the majority of you have seen this... but it's so funny I just can't help posting it.
For dynasty readers, note that there's a picture of a football game of Appalachian State vs... what probably isn't, but appears to be Eastern Kentucky! The undefeated-in-the-ACC Colonels! Interesting...

Super Bowl Prediction
Hmm.
I haven't really thought about it.
The eternal question...
Colts or Bears.
On one hand, everyone and their dog's grandma are picking the Colts, giving the Bears reason to play harder. On the other hand, there's a reason everyone's picking the Colts.
Makes sense to me.
Colts, 24-21. (I picked the final score of Super Bowl 39 exactly right, you know.)
