The Top Reason to Choose Netflix (over Blockbuster)

January 16, 2007 by Bartoneus

In the last year many of my friends have started using Netflix, which really makes me happy because one of the best features of Netflix is their website and the friends features that it offers.  I have always had a big problem with them, though, because a lone friend of mine started using the similar […]

Inq. of the Week: Television

January 15, 2007 by Bartoneus

This week’s Inquisition comes direct from my latest obsession, which would be the Battlestar Galactica season 1 and 2 dvd’s that The Main Event lent me.  All I really knew beforehand was that it was a remake of an older 70’s tv show which I’d seen a re-run or two of and was generally disinterested […]

Ninja: Flipping Out in the Big Apple

January 11, 2007 by Bartoneus

If you’ve ever got the hankering for some good food, but you’re concerned with running into a pirate in the restaurant, fear no more!  Not at the Ninja New York restaurant!  As their philosophy says, they provide “good service, NINJA WAY!”  It looks like the atmosphere presented by this place is grade A – awesome, […]

How Does This Darn Thing Work?

January 10, 2007 by Bartoneus

I noticed that on my last comic there somehow appeared a #1 after New Years Resolution, which could have been my subconcious zombie-mind giving subtle (and sexy) hints.  Thus we have my second New Years Resolution, the second of a series, one that I only assume I should not attempt to carry out much further […]

Batman: TAS Online!

January 4, 2007 by Bartoneus

I was very shocked to find on the internet full episodes of the most excellent Batman: The Animated Series, especially from a source such as AOL.  I haven’t gotten the chance to verify the quality or how well they are actually provided, but I was just surprised to see them on there at all, typically […]

Testing My Resolve

January 3, 2007 by Bartoneus

Certainly a heavy stipulation to tag onto any resolution is the line “unless I die in the process,” but with a game as sinisterly difficult as Ultimate Ghosts’n’Goblins it may just come down to that.  Given to me as a christmas present, I dove right in on December 25th and chose the Normal Difficulty level […]

Inq. of the Week: Happy New Year!

January 1, 2007 by Bartoneus

Welcome to 2007, I certainly hope the holidays and 2006 were kind to everyone and that the new year will bring many more good things to everyone!  We’re jumping right in with our Inquisition of the week: What new technology do you predict for 2007? On October 23rd, 2001 the world was introduced to Apple’s […]

Beware the Winter Solstice!

December 27, 2006 by Bartoneus

Thankfully we have passed this day, when the sun rises for only a few short hours, and now we have begun to blissful journey towards longer days and sunnier times.  It may commonly be referred to as the Winter Solstice, which more accurately happened just into December 22nd, but technicalities aside we’re passed it and […]

The Christmastide Cometh

December 21, 2006 by Bartoneus

With Christmas a scant amount of days away, everyone pretty much starts the slow process of stopping everything else they were doing.  The process begins sometime in August, when the first leaf decides it can resist the foul temptations of gravity no longer, or it simply falls for the grass’ endless tauntings of free booze […]
