New shameless addiction: DEADLIEST WARRIOR on Spike TV

1st one I happened to catch was Spartan vs. Ninja, which was immediately followed by knight vs. pirate, and then I tuned in the following week to watch Yakuza vs. Mafia…..and next week: SHAOLIN MONK VS. MAORI WARRIOR! I’m so excited :D:D

…ok, tried posting the video, but wordpress won’t let you embed (other than through vodpod–anyone have advice?) So here’s the link for a preview–THE DEADLY SHAOLIN TWIN HOOK MULTI-PURPOSE WEAPON SWORD!

I loved the forced sound bites and the forced smack talk back and forth

Twitter

I was using Twitter on my fundraising page and now have disconnected it from that. I feel free to Twitter about whatever I like now–but honestly, I can’t seem to get into Twitter.

Most of the people I’m following on Twitter are either 1) people whose blogs I’m already reading or 2) fictional characters.

What is it that I’m missing about Twitter that has people so worked up?
