UFC Ultimate FIghter letdown...

I am completely disgusted... can they honestly NOT find decent competitors for this show anymore?

That first round on tonights TUF  was a fucking joke. Standing up with just punches and hands down the whole time... Anyone with ANY experience (hell even Kimbo slice...) would have ended that fight in the first 30 seconds... But no.. Dana White goes 'OMG OMG OMG' at the commercial break as if it was an amazing round... It sucked beyond comprehension!

People who know me, know that I studied martial arts for 8+ yrs.  If that round is the caliber of fighters that is available in todays market.... its a sad sad world indeed.. Even my 'out of shape' ass could have destroyed anyone of those jokers in that first round...

2nd round starting now... will it be better? i doubt it...

Friendship and its eventual let downs...

I have been pondering about friendship.

You have different friends during different times of your life. If you're lucky, you will have excellent friends during those times. These friends feel like they will always be friends no matter what happens nor how much time passes.

But, sadly, thats not how it usually happens. The people you thought were the closest to you drift away... People you would share everything with, be there for, spend some of the funnest/sadest/closest times with will slowly disappear.

If you're truly lucky and blessed, there will be the occasional few who will be there. Those are true friends. The ones where you can just pick up where you left off with minimal/no awkwardness... Keep them close to you. They're worth their weight in gold.

You will have nostalgic moments of envy for past experiences with friends. These feelings will bring emotions of joy, humor, and sadness. The only thing you can count on... just like your past close relationships, these feelings of envy shall pass.

Facebook Farmville: My Strategy for fast lvling (so far)

My schedule is pretty simple. It involves a diversified method of leveling and currently little 'niceities'...

Here is a quick image of my current farm:


in the Blue section:
Lemon Trees... As close as they can fit, this is here to take up the dead space . This will be extended on the top left 2 rows as I get more and more of them.

In the Red section:
Trees, Animals, and crops... Used to fulfil the different ribbons. Once a ribbon is complete, move on to a different type and once all of the ribbons that require space are finished, I will be using that space for tractors.

in the yellow section:
i waste one field for the pleasure of faster EVERYTHING in farmville. When you just get into farmville, you will always start in the same spot (changes only when you increase your farm size). Knowing this, I block my character with haybales. This forces him to stay in 1 spot. This eliminates the need for him to walk around to perform actions and things start as soon as they are next in queue. This eliminates a TON of time wasted and will help clear your crops, plow your land and anything else ur character needs to walk to to perform.

Thats what I do for my farm and I have gone up in lvls quite quickly. I only grow crops that I can harvest 1 time a day (fits my schedule best) and i rotate my extra $$ between 1) buying more lemon trees and 2) buying then selling  haybales for pretty cheap exp
