That’s right, Doctor Jones is back. And to commemorate the occasion, I’ve spruced up the logo.
I just couldn’t help myself. I’ve been addicted to the Indiana Jones movies since I first saw Raiders of the Lost Ark on our new vcr back in the early 80’s. And then, to see Temple of Doom in the theater rocked my 9 year old world.
Then when Last Crusade came out, I was one of the first to buy the computer game (the adventure game, not the arcade game). Unfortunately for me, I never got to see the movie on the big screen– my friend wanted to see Ghostbusters 2 instead. *sigh*
While it sucked not seeing it on the big screen, what sucked more was the adventure game. See, the game followed the movie pretty well. And this was years before the internet was popular, so if one got stuck in a game (as I did) you had to either buy a hint book or keep trying until you either get it or give up.
A few of my other friend’s saw the movie, but they tired quickly of me asking them where the grail diary was and how did Indiana rescue his dad from the nazi mansion.
Then the movie came out on video and I was able to finish the game.
No worries about that this time around though–
1) while Lucasarts is making a new Indiana Jones game, no word on whether or not it will follow the movie. I doubt it though, otherwise they would’ve said so.
2) Even if it is a game following the movie, I will not be able to play it as the game is only being released on playstation 3 and Xbox, neither of which I own or plan on owning.
*sigh* Oh well. I didn’t want to be Indiana Jones anyway. Then again, there is always Halloween.
Let’s start this post of randomness with a video sent to me this morning by a friend.
Now… more randomness… What follows are some questions I’ve pondered. Some have been pondered for a long time, others only recently.
Random Ponderance Number 1– If Jimmy Buffett were a ninja instead of a pirate, would his concerts still be the massive parties that they are? Or would they be held on secret islands where one would have to pass many obstacles to get to?
Random Ponderance Number 2– Do Satanists go to heaven? Hear me out– If the Catholics (and any other religion that believes in heaven and hell) are correct and we’ll go to Heaven, Hell or Purgatory when we die based on our actions in life… Doesn’t it seem like someone who has devouted his live to the Dark Lord and would be right at home in Hell? Wouldn’t hell therefore be heaven for this person? Therefore, it seems it more fitting for such a person to be sent to heaven, thus assuring the proper torment.
More Random Ponderances–
What is the flashpoint for ants?
Why do people have to be quiet at a golf tournament, when the player is hitting a ball that is sitting still, and yet are encouraged to yell and scream at a baseball game where a player is trying to hit a round ball traveling at nearly 100MPH with a round bat?
When will the government sell out and start selling Interstate names to corporations? I can’t wait to drive the I-80 Sams Club Expressway back to Chicago, or the I-10 Taco Bell Grande across Texas!
If two different mythical creatures from two different mythologies mated, would it create a whole new mythology?
These are some of the things that bounce through my head at any given time..
