We had a great weekend with lots of eating involved. On Friday, Judy and I went out to dinner for no particular reason, and on Saturday, it was our friend's birthday, so we took her out for a movie (Hugo in 3D, not too thrilled about it) and then a fancy dinner. Fine dining for two days in a row means we'll be eating yogurt and salad for the rest of the week.
We're having a contest to give away a
Darksiders II "Death Mask," so if you are a fan of the franchise, it might be worth tossing your hat in the ring. I hope I can mooch one off THQ for myself. The thing is pretty sweet and would fit perfectly with the rest of my gaming memorabilia.

Browsing the Internet, you come across a lot of weird, creepy stuff that makes you shake your head. On the flip side of the coin, some things make it all worthwhile, like
this awesome LEGO Captain America clip. If you're squeamish, don't bother looking because arms get ripped off, there are plenty of headshots, and there's plenty of splatter & gore to go with it. Two thumbs up for whoever made that one!
Speaking of awesomeness, it's not that I'm a fan of the "Glee" TV show, but sometimes you'll watch when they are covering iconic artists. The most recent episode was dedicated to Michael Jackson. "Thriller" was an awesome song back in the day, and so were "Billy Jean," "Beat It," and even "Smooth Criminal," of which they did
an amazing rendition. Don't really care about the vocals, but the two cello guys are insane. If these two guys aren't fans of
Apocalyptica, they ought to sign them up on the double. It's off the hook!
