Applications and games

I had recently been trying apps on my Samsung Admire and it is on the Android Marketplace. I have been playing Angry Birds and as addicting as that is I keep finding more sites and more games to play. I looked up a site last night and was able to play old school Pac-Man and had a ball until I realized I need to fix my directional keys on my keyboard.

I first became introduced to apps through Myspace and played for the longest time. I think is it in our human nature to constantly play games and try to win things regardless of what goes on in society. I started a Facebook a few years back and got addicted to Bejeweled Blitz and on and on and on it went. I believe this gaming addiction started when I was 5 years old and playing Mario for the first time.


I in later years moved on to PlayStation games and Grand Theft Auto 3. I know you guys are seeing a pattern right? Now it is Call of Duty: Black Ops of course, but I am playing this on the Nintendo Wii. I find that to be an experience. I made sure I bought a classic controller so I would not have to use a nun chuck to kill people.

The one unusual thing I hate about online gaming is the lagging from everyone's connections. It seems like everyone needs bionic 4G internet service to get the rate of speed you need.

I just deal and move on and to all those guys that hack and use aim bots to do your dirty work I am on to you and know where you sleep. I think I need Lasik for my eyes to help me see distorted code in gaming lol.


I kid but it happens. I heard a good one for Ladies over 35 is this Winster slot page. Click here for link


I hope everyone's day is going well!

The state of gas prices (ride a bike)

The world is basically one big piece of apples and oranges. I look at the state or our economy that was twisted by every president in reign for the simple fact we give into programs that run us into the ground.

I believe President George Bush had his own oil company back in the day. Did that influence Bush JR to take on Iraq and jump gas prices through the roof? I think so and now with Iran providing 18% of the world's oil now under sanctions by the United States and soon will be under sanctions by the European Union. Iran is finding other buyers for their oil that includes India and China to handle more oil at a cheaper rate for Iran.

In response Iran is looking to cut off the European Union a little sooner then what their sanctions will take place. This now cause US gas prices to jump higher as well as Europe.

In the world we live in that will soon take gas prices over the four dollar mark by next year and even higher in 2014. Did every American get a raise recently? I don't think so, because we still have a good percentage of American's that are jobless and with growth to jobs increasing, well so are goods for that matter.

I really suggest that the United States and all companies adapt a 4 day work week. That giving working 10 hour work days and 3 days off. This will cut back some of the need to get back and forth to work everyday.

I also suggest we look into other means than fuel for cars and this is the kicker. The planet has an over abundance of water and it is called the ocean. Make cars that run off water and you no what it is already possible. Watch this water powered car here.

Now this will cause many influential people in America nervous and why? Gas company owners love their profits and a car that runs off water would make them lose billions of dollars over the next 5 years and would save the senseless drilling for oil and save the environment.

I hate being awesome in my reports and blogs, but it happens sometimes.

I know in the future I will still be looking to ride a bicycle to work but just my 2 little suggestions would make the world a better place in the next 5 years. Workers would be happy and families would be able to spend more money into the economy without being slaves to the gas pump.

The Ocean is free but in the next 5 years who knows if they will tax that as well.

The dreaded man and the dishes!

A man had quietly walked into the house after a long day at work. He decided it was time for a nap, because he had worked since 4am and he got home after 2pm. His wife had text him a few times wondering what he had wanted for dinner. He was so tired laying in bed he replied. " ina pain walk to you later." He was so tired he could not even text right.

He knew that he only had maybe an hour or two before she arrived home. He slept away into dream land and in his dream he was on a beach surrounded by naked bikini models. He was curious of this because he had not had this dream previously.

Two hours pass.....

He slowly starts to wake as he hears her get home and he hears the kids running around the house. The dog was in his cage and the dog started to go nuts knowing someone would let him out to pee. She creeps up into the bedroom and jumps on him waking him up. He slowly opens his eyes thinking to himself "what the F@%$!" She lays down next to him so he will get up and watch the kids. Her plan is to go and workout at the gym and later pick up dinner.

Five minutes pass.....

He is up getting his daughter candy and is talking to his son. His son is cleaning his room so he can play some Wii games. He looks around puzzled because he no longer sees his wife anywhere. He looks in the kitchen and then the living room and no sign. He is like Hmmmm....He opens the bedroom door to see in shock that she is asleep in the bed.

In rage he says "What the F@#$! "Did you really wake me up so you could sleep?" She Replies "No I am just resting a minute." In his mind again he is like "WTF" so he moves on and then...

Fifteen minutes pass....

He goes back in and jumps on the bed. "WAKE UP!" He yells trying to wake her to go to the gym. He goes back out and sets the Wii up for his son to play COD Black Ops. She finally comes out and says to him "Can you do the dishes?" He pauses and looks around a minute and in his mind he wanted to say "What the F@#$ do I look like Willis!" But he refrained from the rage that would commence if he went there.

He quietly looked up and said "OK" and she moved on to getting her shoes on for the gym. He decided to be sneaky and make fun of her behind her back, while she was sitting there.

She now leaves for the gym and he looks around saying "yes" and felt a sense of freedom and then he looked over and saw the children. "sigh" He walked into the kitchen and saw the dishes..DOOM DOOM DOOM. It was the only thing he could think of in this low budget day and age with 0 special affects to save him from the dishes.

Five minutes pass.....

The dishes are now taunting him and looking at him like he is retarded. He says to himself "How do I defeat these dishes?" Simple answer would be to just clean then and throw them in the dish washer. His other thought was to fill up the bath tub and soak them and surprise the wife for when she got home, but he declined. He was a male vagina when it came to conflict.

He then decided to start doing the dishes and these were not normal dishes, they were dreaded dishes of doom. They do like normal dishes do and they taunt you and laugh at you, because they own you!

He soaked them all in the sink hearing sounds like "You little bitch!" and "Your mom likes dishes!" He became a man of rage cussing at his dishes violently and then he realized something.."Why are the kids staring at me?" He just sits and shakes his head.

His daughter asks him "Dad what is a bitch?" His only response a "very nice lady." He had it down to a science with his children. He hops them up on soda and sweets and then runs them in circles till they pass out like marathon runners finishing a race.

Ten minutes later....

The dishes were complete and the demons had been exercised and he felt accomplished.

Then the door opened and it was the wife and all he could do was look and say "What the F@#$."

Everything sad in the economy.

Well here is my newest post and I base this on the flux of the economy and the set of wrong doing on company's parts.

The United States of America is concerned about jobs and at a time that I can not blame them they economy is starting to explode in a bad way. Gas prices recently in the Orlando,Fl area has grown to $3.59 I take this in part due to mid east tensions.

We are talking about jobs and working, but then why did we outsource so many jobs to other countries? Why because we did it to ourselves. We look for cheap ways to make money and make it cheap.

I will use Apple as an example. It is pretty clear with all the recent news on their manufacturing plants exploding in the past few months and the claims of long hours on Chinese workers that we outsourced the work to get a cheaper rate on labor. In the United States we require that people be paid fairly for their work in China that is not the case. Link about Apple plants here.

We have tech support jobs, customer service jobs, and even car assembly jobs over seas to cut the wages and jobs of US workers. Obama said recently that we need to create new jobs at home. I ask myself why? If you can outsource for a cheaper wage? Many Americans can not even afford to pay for their own groceries for the fact we have no jobs.

We outsourced our jobs and America got dependent and lazy. We get everything from Overseas. Orange Juice, Wine, Meat, Pears, and even Strawberries. I rack my brain on it daily.

Why have we not built more plants to take on our needs as a country? Why do we close up shops and jobs? Why do we not hire more workers to handle skilled positions?

It all adds to the dollar. We make more money getting goods at a low fee from other countries and believe me they are hurting as well. Th Global economy is crunched due to the rich getting richer and the poor man getting poorer.

Who would make our food and clean our streets? The middle class and the lost worker. They take care of things people feel they are to good to do. People go out and get degrees so they can get a good job and prosper and I can tell you there are no jobs for you.

A list here of 10 millionaires with 0 education. click here

It just is dumbfounding that all this happens and we sit back and take it with 0 problems. The Beastie Boys had said it best with a song called "Fight for your right."

We as Americans need to keep our jobs at home and work hard to defend our future.

This is my opinion so don't shoot the blogger!

Myspace

I have always had a Myspace back in 2004 I jumped on the bandwagon. I had some wonderful findings locating friends and family that I had lost through out the years. I had some up and down moments in my life. I met the girl of my dreams there. All on a random question of "what is the craziest thing you've ever done" and that got us going. later after a few years we split and that is an even longer story than any I have ever told.

Myspace was at the front of social networking and they knew it. They were surpassing everyone left and right giving ability to add html code to their profiles to customize it and design how they wanted.

The slow downfall started to turn after News Corp bought the company for $580 million and decided to take Myspace in a new direction. I would have to say that the constant redesign of Myspace and no longer having the ability to make a profile your own made users leave due to the complex application that Myspace came up with.

I still use their services today and that is not even for family and friends anymore as in 2004 I was big in updating peoples lives and socializing and one an app came out called Mobsters.

Now I played this app filled with people all over the world and when I first got on the app I had said "this is some click button bull ish" I had to censor that in my own way and I stopped playing the app. I then later realized my friends had caught on and were playing. I decided to give it another shot.

The thing I learned the most about the game was how social it was it had it's own world inside of Myspace. One thing about the app though is you could not get ahead or be a good player with out multiple Myspace pages to have more than one account.

These accounts turned out to be like gold and people were buying and selling pages because they wanted to be the head of the game. It is a life understanding to try and be the best at something.

I think that is why I liked it so much it gave a mafia feel and where else could you go but an app to kill someone after you got off work. This is what is leading to Myspaces malfunctions for users.

Myspace was sold again by News Corp after they lost users and revenue. They sold the company to Specific Media for $35 million. Now in Specific Medias take over they wanted to make Myspace easier and get it back to the music.

They decided to set protocols for security and to stop spammers. It was all fine and good, because who wanted spam on a social platform. Well on that note it caused a mass deletion of users Myspace pages.

Think about this you are an app user and you made thousands of profiles to play one app to stay ahead of the game and one day poof all your work is gone. That is the epidemic that users are dealing with today. Playdom who hosts the game on Myspace does not know what to do and often look foolish trying to help where they can not.

Myspace can reinstate an profile at their liking at anytime but won't because I am not sure the 200 employees now know exactly how to do that. I myself have been a Myspace users and app player for 3+ years and had 86 of my own Myspace profiles for app gaming deleted by Myspace stating they violated their terms of service.

When did using more than own profile constitute a violation. They can not even figure out their own random deletions.

I still play the app Mobster on Myspace and I still like using Myspace and making new accounts daily to make up for what I lost. I think Myspace has to understand a players stand point and understanding. You own a social platform and you host apps, so you should know the people and the culture.

Playdom has done some things like state they will make a saved game tool to transfer your game to another Myspace, but they are slowly turning users away from the game they love due to hackers and programmers messing with the app itself. Everyone likes to get ahead but they really have to cheat to get there.

One day the world will realize as people we do the things that make us happy and playing apps and social networking makes us the happiest. bring back our profiles and bring back our games.

Playing apps online

I have always tested the online app premise. I have done this many times before with Myspace and also with Facebook. I have been playing this app on Myspace called Mobsters by Playdom.

It like most apps has certain functionality. It has the ability to buy property to build income. It has a hit list to send people to their death for a price and you get this price by buying property. You receive certain stat points for health, attack, defense, and energy.

These are all to make your account stronger or weaker based on point placement. You can attack mobsters and even punch them. In the recent years most people have figured out how to run programs or macros/bots on gaming app platform. They use the same scripting of xml or php that they used to create the app itself.

These bots can maintain your mobster and help you do missions and etc to get your character to succeed. It seems to make players lives a bit easier but if caught using you will get a tos or term of service violation as it is commonly called.

Now as recent months have past Myspace has made changes to their platform and that is messing with the app and many players profiles. I have gone back and forth with Myspace of how or why they have deleted countless Myspace accounts linked to Playdom Mobsters.

Over the last month Myspace has made certain security changes to the platform to prevent spamming users. Any use of macros or bots violates their terms of service they even deleted a few band profile for using friend adders to help grow their audience.

Myspace deleted peoples account that even some payed money for and worked 3 hard and long years to make their experience feel accomplished and worth while. I know over the last few years Myspace had fallen off as Facebook took over in social networking.

Myspace has chosen to go the music route now and forgetting some of the apps that made Myspace the only valuable app platform to them to keep them off Facebook. I myself like their new profile layout and always liked Myspace for the fact they bring music to you and your pages.

The people leaving in flocks was due to Myspace lack of direction after Tom sold the company. They took out a lot of feature that people loved like embedding homail into their profile to make their pages look unique. people wanted an actual place that was their own and Myspace gave them that.
Myspace now has to fix what they have done to the Mobster gamers and all the app players that they got rid of in the deletions of pages that they are not even sure how it happened.

I wish Myspace all the luck in the world and still play the game and have all my original Myspace accounts.
