iTunes

Ok, everybody says that iTunes revolutionizes the whole music industry and is going to put the cd stores and movie rental shops out of business. Honestly, I don't like that thought. Why? Because what fun is renting a movie if you just order it from your computer? I actually prefer going out to a movie rental place and getting it myself. Also, this makes it almost completely necessary to own an iPod because with only iTunes as your music source how else will you listen to your music? I think iTunes is a huge deal that will hand Apple the entire music industry in a neatly packed bag with a ribbon on top, but what will become of the music industry if the only place where you can easily buy music is iTunes. The answer? You won't. iTunes will eventually ruin the whole thing, raise their prices and ruin all their competition. People say iTunes is revolutionizing everything, but what if it's fine the way it was?

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows movie....

If you have to ask.... I actually think the new Harry Potter movie will be ok. Why? Because if they split a movie into two parts, I'm assuming (and hoping) that means that they won't cut too much stuff out of the book... which is a good thing because, in my opinion, that's been the problem with most of the Harry Potter movies. The down side I see with that is that now everybody has to wait a year before they can see how the whole story ends. Cliff hanger much? Also, I hate that the midnight screening is on a thursday night. How am I supposed to see it if there's school the next day?!?! The answer is... I won't.... I'm going friday. So, for all you followers out there.... who may or may not be non-existant. I would definately recomend you see this movie, even if you hear it's bad. Just for old time's sake.

Pets

If you have to ask.... pets are swav. Except only certain animals. No offence to all you cat owners out there but I seriously can't stand most cats. I mean, they don't do anything other then scratch you, eat and take powdery dumps in a litter box. Is that really necessary? Dogs are so much more entertaining and friendly. I consider fish more of a decoration then an actual pet due to the fact that they are confined to live in a small glass room their entire life. Of course there's more animals that tend to be really cool.... and then there's hamsters. I think if I had the choice to get my own animal I'd probably get a dog.... but if I could pick one that I'd like in the future it would definitely be a kowalrus. A cross between a Koala and a Walrus. I just think that would be swav....

Call of Duty: Black Ops

If you have to ask.... no, I don't think black ops will be that great. Why? Because up until now, Trayarch has made all the crappy Call of Duty games (3 and 5) where Infinity Ward has made all the good ones. I'm sure they're all saying they're trying to be like infinity ward with this one but the fact is, I just don't think it'll work out. I'm sorry, but it's the truth. I'm sure everybody will love it for the first few months. For the first few months it will be amazing, revolutionary and awe-inspiring. Then, people will begin to realise why they like it. It's new, it's got new stuff and lots of people play it. That's when people will start asking themselves, "Do I really like this game?" and in my opinion, their answer will be "No". That's how i see it, that's how I believe it is. I think Call of Duty: Black Ops will be a failure in the big picture, just like Call of Duty 3 and Call of Duty 5.

Computers

If you have to ask.... which you don't.... I'll still say what I have to say though... I'm sad (well not really) to say that I honestly think Microsoft and PC have lost the competition against Apple for the computer industry. Honestly, I think the Windows 7 program is actually pretty good, but it came a little bit too late, Windows Vista had already lowered the confidence of a lot of PC buyers. Apple though, they've been unmistakably efficient in creating new products and programs to guarantee sales. I know a lot of people weren't happy with the iPhone 4, but i disagree. I haven't actually used it myself though so I'll admit my opinion concerns only how it looks. I like the change though, because I was actually starting to get bored of the shape of iPod touch's and iPhones. Anyway, so Apple's really owning it up in the computer industry despite what a lot of people say. I honestly don't think their competition is PC now though.... I think a new era will soon be born in the computer industry.... the era of Google. I mean this blog is being supported by Google right now.... how will apple retaliate when Google makes a computer, I do not know. All I know is that it's going to be hard to chose which one's better..... I support Apple so...... YOU'RE WELCOME

Global Warming

Ok, my opinion always seems to change with this one, because a lot of the time, I think a long the lines of, if it happens, it happens, we'll find a way to cope and it will not be the end of the world.... hopefully. That would be all I have to say, except once in a while, I watch or listen to something like the inconvenient truth (Thank you Al Gore). These kind of discussions wouldn't mess with my mind except for the warming part. I mean, I like the cold. I don't know why. I hate rain, but I like snow and I like cold temperatures. I also like polar bears and all those cold animals. Unfortunately, global warming affects those things as well. So, in the end, I've decided. I will help, and do what I can, but one person can't help. It has to be a group effort. Honestly, I don't think people care enough. Everybody's drifted too far apart. This is a battle that we've already lost unless we can pull it together and piss the odd person off in order to save this planet.

Campbell's retirement?!?!

Ok, I'll admit, I did not see that coming. I mean, I liked that guy. I agree with the HST and i think it makes stuff much simpler if they would just stop complicating things. I think he's been doing a good job and I don't think he's messed up too much these past years. The question I have now though, is what's next? Who will replace him? Will I agree with that guy? I don't know, but Gordon Campbell, I congratulate you, and I think you've done a good job..... You're welcome.

Hockey

If you have to ask.... no, I'm not a big hockey fan, I know, very uncanadian of me. It's not that I don't like the sport, I watch olympic hockey, I like watching hockey. It's just that our team's disappointed me so many times. Why should I build up my confidence in them to have it crushed again? I don't know. This year's different though. I have decided to support our once crappy hockey team so they will win. Why do I know they'll win? Because I'm supporting them, that's why. It's a well known fact that if you think something's going to happen, it probably will. As humans we take an estimated guess at everything we do, we calculate the risk and decide whether or not to go for it. This year, I have decided that our hockey team is worth the risk and I'm giving it my full/partial support. You're welcome.
