Brent Keith vs. Justin Bruening

So, it’s like 4 AM, I was playing Lord of the Rings Online, went out to get a drink. My roommates Nicholas and Barbara where watching American Idol. (obviously recorded) Anyway, as I pass by the TV I see Brent Keith preforming one of his numbers. My absolute first thought is that he looked a heck of a lot like Justin Bruening, or better perhaps known as the new Michael Knight. Bruening who plays at the main actor in NBCs spin-off/remake of Knight Rider, and we see his face almost weekly.

It was just an observation, but my esteemed roommates disagreed, and went far enough to suggest I am blind and mistaken. (Granted I am mostly blind but that is besides the point.) I wanted to be certain so I went hunting for comparison photos, and I am still convinced that it might be easy to make the similiar features comparisons in passing. I will add the photos I found out on the web and we can let public opinion decide. Do they look alike?

What do you think, post your comment below.

Cryptic as Usual

Some time ago I reported on the Launch of STOIRC. A Chat site and network dedicated to the highly anticipated new MMMO Star Trek Online. What would be nice if is Cryptic at least acknowledged our site. So far two attempts to open dialog with the MMO developer have proven void. I and my Co-Admin Nick Moline live just a few minutes north of Cryptic in Mountain View, CA. I am  glad they are busy and deep into development of this title, but can they not spare us a few minutes? 

 

Despite Public endorsement from Star Trek Games, Station K7, Aries Fleet, and Lone Star Fleet the network has not grown into the public hub I had hoped for. A boost from Crypric might help with an Invite for them to come chat with us still on the table I can only hope they will ablige.

Microsoft Internal Sales Video Leaked

This is just scary, but maybe it is time to switch to a Mac. These people look like they had fun, but if they think this is a great video I am concerned about where the future of Microsoft creativity potential might be headed.

Unintended Consequences

Jesus Light Switch CoverI was raised Catholic by my Mother and her side of the family. It was a good start toward knowing what in life was acceptable and what was right. As I grew older I even considered being a priest, but when I left my Mother’s roof my life took a different path. A Christian path but different and one that I felt meant more and did more for my life. I came across a picture in the FailBlog (Thanks to friend John MacDonald) that really hit home for me.

A Jesus light switch wall plate that matches one that could be found in my Mother’s home. It is sad because back then I would have never seen it as a problem perhaps even found some comfort in it when turning off the lights to go to bed, but now I just find it to be a disturbingly poor design. You can decide for yourself.

Day One – I Quit

Well.

I have been told time and again that I drink way to much Coca-Cola This is of course true and I have never denied such a claim. I got chewed out recently for taking in so many that it was becoming a difficult expense. I tried to shrug that fact off because it threaten a way of life for me. I am an addict after all. I wish I had never gotten launched on the stuff now. I am worried about what it will do to my system, but being 26/27 I figure I am young I have time to put those worries behind me I will cross that bridge when I come to it. Wishful thinking since I even go sometimes as far as to tell myself “Technology will be better when I get older I won’t have to worry about the physical problems my parents did.

Mac to The Future

mike mac to the future

I have a confession, I’m a PC User, Why? Because I love Video Games It’s a past time, and I never put much stock in the Compatibility of Macs. I am learning new truths as of late. A veil of simplicity has been cast before my eyes, and what I knew, what I believed, has been fed by fear , uncertainty and doubt. I will not fear truth any longer. Apple has taken leaps and bounds and is steadily growing to be master of computers once again, and I want one. I hope Mac is in my future.
