I enjoyed this post it was pretty much facts I already know. Let me tell you how marijuana is addictive. Its addictive in the same way as sex is addictive, the same way downing the lich king is addictive. Anything good is worth repeating over and over until your tired of it.

An update to my plans for 4.0

With 4.0 looming on the horizon I am getting prepared to craft all the glyphs I can. Originally i wanted to craft around 20 of every glyph that i can make and i hope to still achieve this goal. However with life being busy and my wow time being non-exsistent i have decided that ill craft all the glyphs i can with my current ink stockpile. Ill then begin preparing for the release of 4.0 organizing and getting my toons ready to sell. I plan to sell out of glyphs asap. When i do my glyph machine will be closing down no more production. I plan to sell off my excess supplies of WOTLK materials and condense my gold to one toon. It will be my last hoorah at making gold. Im tired of the game and want to go out with a bang i hope to make 10-20k gold in sells and call my AH playing days over for now. It doesn';t hold my interest like it once did and with the lack of need for gold i have no desire to continue making gold. Wow life has been non exsistent for me i have pretty much grown tired of the game in its current form.

So what have i been doing with my time ? well pretty much alienating my readers oh well. I have been working doing school and working 2 part time jobs. Going through the steps to purchase a house. I also rekindled my romance with Halo. I have been doing nothing but playing Halo: Reach when i have free time. I allows me to satisfy my gaming side and it doesn't hurt that I am better at it than i ma with COD games. So this is it my readers my 3rd to last gold related post. WHy because im tired of it and don't need the gold. I plan to do 2 more post one on the results of my 4.0 surge and one as a refresher post to show various methods i used to make gold. With the conclusion of my gold making career im not sure what ill do with my blog or free time. Maybe just ramble for several months until cataclyms comes and i find myself sucked into the world of warcraft once more.

Tales of PC repair

Phone call last friday from part time boss.

Boss: Hey can you install win 7 and install a gobi driver on this PC?
Me: Sure thats no problem ive installed win-7 and updated drivers.
Boss: also make sure the gobi has verizon running and that all the hardware is properly installed.
Me: ok no problem i have done that before.
Boss: Oh and i forgot to mention this pc does't have a cd drive.
Me: !!! says something about using a usb stick to install 7.
Boss: Also i need you to install a map program and configure the internal GPS unit to the program.
Me: Nervously saying i think i can do that.
Boss:sounds good you have until monday to finish this.

Later on during friday.
Boss: heres the laptop and a USB stick. All the dvds are in the box.
Me: thanks ill get this done asap.
Boss: Hey how much do you think this laptop is worth?
Me: definatley more than 1000$.
Boss: yeh much higher around 4000$. So make sure nothing happens to it.

What i forgot to mention about this weekend was that it was my birthday weekend. That i was going to be busy most of the day saturday and sunday. I tried researching how to install Win 7 via usb stick, but it was to complicated for me to work out to meet my monday deadline. So i ended up calling my brother who luckily enough had a usb dvd drive i could use. Got win 7 installed and all bu the gobi file installed by saturday night. I finished up mid afternoon on sunday.

Im really enjoying the part time work im getting from this boss. Its rewarding and definatley sharpening my trouble shooting skills. In the few weeks that ive been getting side work from him i have dealt with PSU issues, viruses, repairing windows installations. Its been an adventure especially since I currently borrow my neighbors internet. Which makes updating deaktop units a huge chore but nothing i couln't work around. I just finished fixing the 5th laptop i was given to work on. I really enjoy this work the probelem solving gives me a great since of accomplishment. The best part is im finally building experience, the extra money doesn't hurt either.

Little gems from the comment section.

Today my readers I'm going to share with you some lovely comments left by some of my anonymous commenter's. Whats great about these post is people come here to degrade my opinion but fail. Why do they fail because they don't seem to realize that most of their comments are un-educated and for the most part full of hate. i enjoy people having their own opinions in fact i love hearing a well thought out argument against what i believe. I have had my mind changed by arguments that make since and are well thought out. That's the beauty of humanity is we are a species with thousands of ideas and different opinions. The sad part of this beauty is you end up with people like one of my commenter's who does nothing but degrade me for my beliefs.

I don't recall sexual orientation ever being in the declaration of Independence or the constitution... maybe if they let gays in the service and be free to marry pedophiles can get jobs teaching or working at day cares. Wouldn't that be keen.

Ahh what a nice hate filled post. See this person starts with a fact no the declaration of Independence did not include sexual orientation. Nor did the constitution but what the declaration did was establish that everyman is created free and equal. With that in mind then by barring homosexuals from being married or serving openly in our military you have made a man un-equal. Gay rights is no different than the civil rights movement or woman rights movement it is a group of people working to become equal to their peers. I also think this posters beliefe is based on faith more so than facts the nice thing about our constitution is the seperation of church and state. Your allowed to follow your beliefs but laws should not be based on christian beliefs.

Then the poster makes a nice left hand turn into ignorance and slams his head straight into a wall of stupid. He argues that somehow being gay is equal to being a pedophile who preys on the young. You sir are wrong being gay doesn't make you morally bankrupt. You probably believe that if gays are allowed to marry then all hetero sexual marriages will end in divorce. I don't mind a good logical thought out reason for why gays shouldn't be married but this is not it. Even an argument based on faith is not good enough to make someone a second class citizen. I'm christian i don't hate gays i don't dislike them i honestly i don't criticize or try and state their going to hell for their sexual orientation. I let them make their choice i may mention the bible says its wrong but god gave us a free will to do what we want. However god also said treat others as you want to be treated and by making gays second class citizens you become a sinner no different than any other sinner in the eyes of god.

He has a point. Slippery slope thing. Also what does this have to do with wow gold making?


Slippery slope so you let gays marry then what? Where does the slope go I'm just wondering because to me there is no where else for it to go. By allowing gays to marry you give them equality which is all they want. As for gold making this post has nothing to do with it. I post about what i want on my blog if you haven't noticed titles changed there will still be wow related post just not as many.

Lol marko prolly dropped you because of your liberal hippie stuff and no real gold talk...grats btw on congress dropping your gays in the military/illegal immagrant bill today. Sadly you probobly had no idea the dems were trying to slide that one in...

I agree after much thought i don't care that i was dropped from his blog roll. Yes my post have veered away from being strictly wow related. I did care when i wrote that post but have since stopped worrying about it. As for grats on congress dropping a bill i think it shows the lack of spine many of our congress members have to make the right decision. They only make tough decisions when its not their ass on the line. Honestly i think we need term limits on senators . why because 50 years of the same senator stagnates our congress from being effective. The old order rules and no progress can be made for the country.

BTW I'm not a liberal but an independent i vote on who has the best ideas and who i think will help move our country in he best direction. Sometimes its democrats sometimes its republicans honestly I'm not to happy with either. Recently my alignment has been towards the liberal side why because what the right wants is not in my opinion whats best for our country as a whole. As for being a hippie i guess i do have hippie tendencies . As for the lack of gold post its because of the lack of need for gold or lack of playing wow.

This is all for today im sorry to bring controversy to my readers but i believe that by sharing my oppinon i may change a few minds. If you dont like my view or disagree please comment tell me why or add to the converstation. i really try my best to read every comment with an open mind. BTW since this will move down the last post let me add my xbox gamer tag is bobreaze88 if you wish to discuss with voice chat any of my views or just get a few kills on COD:MW2 id love the company of my readers. Just send invites and mention the blog. I even invite you mr Anon #1 to come and play and if you want to discuss your comments or my views in a non hostile way that would be fine with me.

Mr. Gold Maker has run out of time

So im currently to busy to play wow or make gold. Im in a good spot to begin crafting glyphs for 4.o it just seems that things are currently to busy in life to really play wow effectivley. with less than an hour to play daily the reward for playing is non-exsistent. So with that in mind i have generally been using my game time to begin sharpening my modern warfare 2 skills. Why am i doing this? well i can get in a round or 2 and the reward of pleasure and happiness seems to be more than i can currently get from wow.

So since im currently unable or unwilling to play wow theres not much to update on the gold front. However i would like to invite my readers to play MW2 on xbox live with me if they wish to. my gamer tag is bobreaze88 just send me a friend invite with a message stating your a blog reader. ill add you to friends and hopefully catch you online to play a few games. I look forward to growning my friends list and hopefully enjoying the company of my readers. I even invite the ones that disagree with some of my more recent post to join me we can have civil debate through live instead of delayed postings on the inter-webz.

2nd class citizen.( a rant )

Imagine yourself in love with a person wanting to share your life with them. You want to make things official under the law but can't. You can't because people think you wanting to spend your life together some how harms their marriage or them. Or imagine you want to serve in the military so that you can get experience in life job skills and benefit from the GI bill. However if you do you can't tell your sexual orientation or you will be judged. Along with that you will be working in an environment that is hostile towards your sexual preference for no valid reason. This is a common problem for gay Americans they face prejudice from every angle when all they want is to be equal to non gay citizens.

To me this is a heart breaking situation. Personally i know a few gay people and have never had an issue with any of them. In fact they seem to be some of the most honest people you will meet. However it seems that Americans have this notion that gays are the root of evil. That by allowing them to marry or vocalize their orientation we degrade our country. How is a gay person being gay hurt our country though? if they all married tomorrow I'm sure it might help. Perhaps some would marry a spouse that has health insurance and they would be insured reducing the number of un-insured. Perhaps these gay couples would stop the trend of adopting foreign kids and begin helping raise the orphans of America. But wait gays can't raise children that would cause the world to end some would say. Well your wrong children need to be raised in a loving home be it gay parents or hetero reducing the number of orphans and un adopted children in America would only benefit us in the long run.

If your against gays being themselves and choosing a different lifestyle than you you are un American and judgemental. If you believe that being gay is a sin you are Christian. But if you believe being gay a sin you must also follow the bible which states to love all people like you love yourself regardless of their sins. I find that many Christians myself included forget the passage let those who are with out sin cast the first stone. We judge without wanting to be judged we don't accept or try to understand that which we find morally wrong. We live in a close minded country where we use our laws to dictate morality when in fact we shouldn't judge. All Homo sexual men and women want is to be an equal citizen like you and me. To not let their sexual orientation dictate what they can and can't do. I believe we should give them this because in a free country all men are created equally be it gay, straight, llama whatever.
