Just checking in.

Okay, so I have decided that my show on hacking, modding, fixing, and all around taking things apart, is going to be called HackThat. I have already registered the domain HackThat.tv, where I will be posting all the videos for the show. I have only just started to get the site up and running, so it does not look like much right now. I am also pretty sure that I am going to be uploading the videos to the internet using MetaCafe, because they offer $5.00, for every 1000 views, which I think is pretty good! Especially sense YouTube only gives me…. hmmm…. well nothing. I also have been working on a game for a competition over on YoYoGames.com. In case you do not know about YoYoGames already, its a website where you can upload games that have been created with a program called Game Maker, that well, lets you make games. The completion is for the best casual video game based on an ancient civilization. I only have about 30 days left to complete the game, and I only have just started on it, so I am trying to make a very simple to make game. I will fill you all in on the game later on, when I get a little more of it done.

ebay,DNA, and dogs.

So I was shipping things out that I sold on ebay the other day, and I noticed that one of my hairs got stuck between the tape, and mailing envelope. Instead of trying to remove it, and fearing that someone would try and clone me. I just wrote them a little note above the hair with permanent marker. You can see it in the picture below. Aren’t I just so clever! My dog Jackies hair gets stuck to the tape all the time, and there is no way to avoid it, because she pretty much just has free roam of the house. I would say that her DNA goes to a lot more places than mine. Maybe she has a clone out there somewhere! You can find pictures of her on my Flickr page. If you see a clone of her, be sure to leave me a comment! :)

What have I been doing?

Well I have been doing a lot of things lately. For one I have finally started selling all the junk in my attic. There is a lot of stuff up there, but it is shrinking now, as it goes out box by box to everywhere in the nation, and sometimes to other nations. I also just got done beating Metroid Prime 3. I bought the game when it first came out months ago, and just now got around to beating it. I was kinda disappointed by the final boss (Shadow Samus, and one of the Aura Units). I did unlock hard mode, so maybe I will try it again on that setting. I was also a little let down by the way the whole thing ended, but thats a whole post of its own. I have been working on a concept for a new show as well. I think I am going to call it the “Amazing Aaron Show”. It will be a freeform show. Whatever I feel like talking about, or doing that day, will be what the show is about. I want there to be a lot of how-tos and projects in it, because thats what I like to do, and it will give me an excuse to do more crazy projects. I’m also trying to decide if I want to put the show on youtube, or if I want to put it on a site like metacafe, where I could actually make some money off of it. Maybe I will just put it on both, I don’t know yet. I hope to have an episode up soon, so watch for it. I will definitely post an embed here, so you can all see it. All 2 of you (counting me). If you have an comments, or suggestions about the show, just leave me a comment on this post, and I’ll be sure to look it over. Its not like theres a big line of people just begging to post comments on here, or anything LOL. So post 2 or 3 if you want!
