An Update To All My Game Recordings

Raul Gallegos — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 02:26:30 +0000

Hello all.

It’s been a while that I’ve written anything here. I always seem to have the same excuse as everyone else. So let’s take off the gloves and say a few truths. First off, I’m no blogger. I may say that I don’t have time or I haven’t made the time. Truth be told, I’m lazy and I forget to update the blog as often as I should. Heck, it took me nearly 3 years to revamp the games section on my main Asmodean site. So if that’s not an indication, I don’t know what is.

So yeah, the Games on Asmodean, that is the reason for this post. It’s to tell all you fellow interested gamers and non-gamers alike, that the games section is back up. Yes, you can now go to www.asmodean.net and choose the games link, or better yet, http://asmodean.net/games will take you there directly. All the audio from my early 2003 recordings is there as well as the bulk of the audio recordings done in 2006. I’ve even added the latest iPhone recording I did just earlier this week.

So that’s all I really have to say. I even updated the contacts section on the page. This means that if something doesn’t work, you can probably get a hold of me to tell me. Of course that doesn’t mean I’ll actually do anything about it, . Anyway, leave a comment if you want.

Cheers, and take care.

A story about Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody

Raul Gallegos — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 00:18:27 +0000

There were four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody. There was an important job to be done and Everybody was asked to do it. Everybody was sure Somebody would do it, Anybody could have done it but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job. Everybody thought Anybody could do it but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it. It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

I have various Braille dots for sale

Raul Gallegos — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 12:48:59 +0000

Hello. I have for sale various Braille dots. These dots are great to
have around because you can use them to pretend like you are reading.
Each dot costs a dollar, but if you buy a full cell, the cost is only 5
dollars. So it’s like you get 1 dot free. If you buy more than 1 dot,
you will need to specify in what dot pattern you want the multiple dots
to come in. For example if you buy 4 dots, I will need to know which
ones you actually want. Examples are dots 1 2 3 5 for the letter r and
dots 1 2 4 5 for the letter G. If you want multiple sets of dots such as
enough to make certain dot patterns as in the following phrase, I can
make this happen as well.

The below dot patterns are the special of the day and are even free.

1 1234 1235 24 123
124 135 135 123 3 234

Many thanks.

A Sad, Sad, Story

Raul Gallegos — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:05:33 +0000

A cruise on the Pacific goes all wrong, the ship sinks, and there are only 3 Survivors; Jim, Tom and Susie.

They manage to swim to a small island and they live there for a couple of years doing what’s natural for men and women to do.

After several years of casual sex all the time, Susie felt absolutely horrible about what she was doing. She felt having sex with both Jim and Tom was so immoral and bad that she killed herself.

It was tragic, but Jim and Tom managed to get through it. After a while, Jim and Tom’s resistance to nature’s urgings waned, and the inevitable happened. Well, a couple more years went by and Jim and Tom began to feel absolutely horrible about what they were doing.

So, they buried Susie.

Some Random Thoughts On A Wednesday Morning

Raul Gallegos — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 15:05:03 +0000

Random Thoughts

1. I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear
your computer history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you
realize you’re wrong.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was
younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest really needs to start their directions on #5. I’m pretty
sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.

8. Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the
person died.

9. I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t at least kind of tired.

10. Bad decisions make good stories.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at
work when you know that you just aren’t going to do anything productive
for the rest of the day.

12. Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I
don’t want to have to restart my collection… again.

13. I’m always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks
me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page research paper that I
swear I did not make any changes to.

14. “Do not machine wash or tumble dry” means I will never wash this –
ever.

15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn
it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to
voicemail. What’d you do after I didn’t answer? Drop the phone and run
away?

16. I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not
seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.

17. I keep some people’s phone numbers in my phone just so I know not
to answer when they call.

18. My 4-year old son asked me in the car the other day “Dad what would
happen if you ran over a ninja?” How do I respond to that?

19. I think the freezer deserves a light as well.

20. I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or
Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.

Nothing New

Raul Gallegos — Wed, 13 May 2009 10:44:01 +0000

Just doing the morning stuff before getting to work. I am liking posting from Firefox better than IE because the editor used is different it seems based on the browser. Also, I hope it rains in Fort Waynes later today.
