Staying With the Vodka Posts: This NEEDS to be an Olympic Event

This NEEDS to be included in the 2016 summer games. Chug a bottle of vodka and swim a lap? Genius! I’m not saying it isn’t dangerous, because i’m pretty sure it is, no, I know it is, but how entertaining would this be? Super entertaining. However, I do have an amendment to the rules. A whole bottle seems like a bit much to drink. if this was an actual rule there is no way anyone would beat the Russian team. Just wouldn’t happen. Those gargantuans are bred for drinking vodka. So, in the name of safety, lets say you drink a fifth and then swim your laps. That seems much more reasonable.

Troy Walker: Screwjob Or Choke City?

I’m torn on this one. On the one hand that first throw looked pretty good. Judging by his previous perfect throws it probably would’ve been a strike, he gets a 300 at a charity bowling event, and no one ever knows he existed. Instead, fate intervened in the form of a premature pinsetter. My question is does this count as choking? Technically he got another chance for a perfect score. He had to absolutely lose it on the inside when only 7 pins went down. Went home and drank a bottle of whiskey and broke every mirror in his house. Guy’s who throw 297’s at charity bowling events literally live for that shit, especially the one’s who show no emotion. If that was me I’d be screaming and yelling, getting the crowd into it. Where’s your showmanship Troy? On second thought I’m glad you didn’t get a perfect score you snob. I hope the number 297 haunts you for the rest of your days.

P.S. Hey Troy, who do you think you are?! I am! Get it right!

New Nexus 7 Lineup

7-google-new-nexus-7-240713Among Google’s announcements yesterday was the new Nexus 7, Google’s 7inch tablet.  The original Nexus 7 broke ground in both price and performance and this year’s model is no different. Google has released 3 different models of the Nexus 7:

• 16gb wifi edition ($229)
• 32gb wifi edition ($269)
• 32gb LTE edition ($349)

The Google Nexus 7 is made by ASUS and packs a serious punch. With a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon™ S4 Pro processor and 2GB of RAM, everything runs faster. Plus, high-performance rendering ensures 3D graphics are smooth and dynamic.

With dual-band Wi-Fi and optional 4G LTE, including support for hundreds of networks worldwide, you’ll stay entertained – and connected – wherever you are.” -Google

Along with the performance upgrades, they also added a rear facing camera, a higher resolution display, and made the whole form factor smaller and more compact.

If you ask me, this is still the best and cheapest 7inch tablet you can get. You could buy one nexus 7 and a Chromecast for every TV in your house, and still pay less than what an iPad costs.
