Dudes and Dudettes,
Firstly, go and get yourself a copy of the song I mention above. Man, I have listened to that song like 40 times over the past few days. Literally. It's all that is good in music these days. A beautiful, happy track about a guy and a chick. Good times.
Now I need to make an apology. I was recently a dick to someone I have grown to have a lot of respect in recent weeks. I was annoyed that he had acted in a certain way in something he had said. What I hadn't done was taken the time to think that he may have been forced to act the way he had for the time being. Sometimes you have to choose the right time and place to have your battles. I hadn't realised that at the time and was was a bit of a twat over the whole situation. Hopefully the person reading this realises who this is aimed at - sorry mate.
So why 'Resolutions'? Well, in a lot of ways we are fast approaching New Year. Lorwyn heralds the opening of of the 07/08 Magic year. You're going to get a chance to read my opinions on that sooner rather than later. And the US TV season starts. The best programme on TV right now, Avatar, started again on Saturday. Whilst I have *ahem* obtained a copy of that, I've not been able to watch it yet. Hopefully get that under the belt this evening. And Prison Break, Heroes, Reaper and Journeymen all start or resume within a 48 hour period. How do you guys that side of the pond do it? You have cock all TV for like 4 months then fire everything at your potential audiences all at once.
What with it being New Year I had to set myself a key resolution. I have to win TCGpprentice. I didn't realise it when I first started taking part. It kind of hit me last week when working on a couple of ideas how much I want to win. I'm not even sure what it is that is causing the way I feel. I guess I'm just a bit egotistical and like the idea that you guys would listen to my opinion week in, week out. I don't know. All things said and done, the competition is fierce. Some of these guys can really write. So don't misunderstand a wish to win with some sort of superiority complex. Just to be standing shoulder-to-shoulder with some of these writers is high praise indeed. But there it is, gnawing away at me now - I need to win this. Here's hoping that over the next few months, you and the judges feel the same way.
-Flame on-
