Free online games when I get bored

Sunday, April 27th, 2008

When I get bored watching TV, I check out the new online games that offer some excitement for an hour or two. It’s nice to find some sites that offer new games made by quality designers. Online games are best when there are free since you can try out many to get a better idea of what you like to play. I tend to grab shooting games like arrows or explosions. I don’t know why but free online games are so fun since there are quick to load and play on flash players. Getting high scores is not the point. I play to do things I could not do in real life. Like drive on the sidewalk to shoot a tank. I am pretty dangerous in the games, but I would never consider doing it in real life. If you feel the urge to play a free online game, do a search on google for your favorite arcade game and there is sure to be a few offering free play.

New Ping Pong Table

Monday, September 24th, 2007

Well, it’s been over a month now but my new ping pong table finally arrived yesterday. I’ve been an avid ping pong player ever since high school and when I moved into my own apartment I decided it would be nice to have a table for our spare room. My friend had previously had one and we used to enjoy regular Friday evening, beer, pizza and ping pong tournaments. Naturally, my friends didn’t want to put much money up against me because I’m quite good. I recommended they buy some ping pong & table tennis videos to help them with their technique. I remember watching a video a few years ago and have picked up some great tips.

Since setting up the new table I’ve had a few friends come over eager to get in some practice before the betting starts this weekend. Usually, I invite 10 friends over and we play a kind of round robin. We each put in $20 and the winner takes all at the end. No prize for the runner up. It’s just like your local pub pool comp except without all the drunken louts. When I next get some cash I plan to buy a plasma screen and play the ping pong & table tennis videos whilst we are playing for some inspiration. It should be loads of fun.
