Despair: Self Doubt

Admin/ May 19, 2015/ Rants

  The last couple of days have been an emotional roller coaster.  I promised I would write these blog posts in the now and right now. I will admit I am beside myself.  While yesterday, I was on cloud nine, tonight is the opposite.  Part of it is to blame on my emotions being a little edgy for sure.  But

  Today marks Jerusalem Day.  This a commemoration of the reunification of Jerusalem after being split apart by the enemies of the Jewish people for so long.

Gilgamesh

Admin/ May 5, 2015/ Video Games

  Yes THAT Gilgamesh and not the one that was written many many years ago about a very very different character.  Whether he is clashing heroes on big bridges, running around with a multitude of weapons that may or may not belong to him, or making crude jokes about women who dress like men, He is certainly among my favorite
