We just got back from our Kevin Smith show, and while it wasn't his typical Q&A gig that we have seen a few times on DVD (check it out, they are called "An Evening With Kevin Smith"), it was their
smodcast show, more of a panel discussion where they talk about all sorts of topics. It was funny as hell, but I was a tad disappointed because I had an awesome question to fire his way.
It's been raining cats & dogs over here for the past few days, so no excursions are planned, aside from some errands and loads of DVR watching.
Look for a new contest to kick off this week. We're going to be giving away thousands of Lord Of The Rings Online newbie keys to give "new" players a bunch of free items.

Last night was a bit busy due to a bunch of flights being delayed, so I had to wait for an extra hour at the airport for an incoming flight. It postponed all the other plans for the evening.
Midnight dinner, with a few glasses of wine resulted in falling asleep for the rest of the night, waking up at noon, going to see
Paul, which was quite entertaining. It was filled with loads of cursing, nerd humor and a weed-smoking alien.
Later tonight, we are going to go see Kevin Smith, so to sum it up, our day will be filled with nothing but profanity, just the way we like it!

Adam wanted you all to know that later today, he is going to be giving away download codes for Torchlight, both on X360 (XBLA) and PC, so if you aren't following us on
Twitter yet, get to it!
On Saturday, we're going to see
Kevin Smith, one of his famed "A Night With" sessions, where he takes questions from the audience and goes on talking for the next 2-3 hours about all the hilarious stuff he gets himself into. To mix it up a little, though, it's called "Jay and Silent Bob Get Old."
Not sure what else we have planned for the weekend. No movies jump out as a must-see, although
Paul looks funny and
Limitless could be good. Or perhaps we'll wait for them on DVD.
