About Me
Well, my name is Josh. I'm 24 and live in So Cal. After school I just ended up taking over the family business of t-shirts & sign making. Its a cool job, I spend most of my day on the interwebs and "doing the design work". At least thats what I tell the other employees.
As far as games go, I love all different types and styles, although lately I've been stuck in shooter territory. The running joke with my friends is I always picked the losing console. So this generation I went out and bought all 3 new systems.


Favorite Games:

1. Super Mario Bros. 3
2. God of War
3. Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
4. Super Mario World
5. BioShock

Favorite Movies:

1. Gladiator
2. X-men 2
3. Grosse Point Blank
4. Dumb & Dumber
5. City of God

Things I hate:

1. Raiders
2. Red Sox
3. slow drivers
4. fanboys (its just a machine to play games, you can enjoy them all)
5. stupidity in general

My new gaming chair.
Silverback 55 | 7:22 PM on 01.14.2008 9 comments


I saw this over at Deadspin and thought it needed to be shared. Copy pasta to follow.


Designed for the disabled people, the Tank Chair is an off-road, all-purpose wheelchair that’s turning a lot of heads at the CES show. This tough chair is built out of a one-piece steel chassis with the tracks made from ruggedized rubber and lightweight aluminum struts. Boasting a top speed of 5 mph, the Tank Chair Mk II has 24V, 2HP, 127RPM variable speed motor that gets its juice from four Optima Deep Cycle batteries. Its creator claims that the chair can even outpace a golf cart. That sounds great as it would be able to go almost anywhere.

Yea, I saw this over on Geekologie about a week ago. Looks awesome, but it only goes 5mph. You couldn't outrun a storeclerk on it.

Oh my God. It's official: cyborgs created by the evil super-computer 'Skynet' actually exist.

It has 2 hit points? j/k

I like it. 5mph isn't a bad speed at all. And its a price id glady pay to be able to run into some random douchebag.

You can still run people over with it. You just need to make sure they don't see it coming.
