Action AllStars For Kid Friendly Action

Hey there friends. Many of us adult gamers have many a place to enjoy online gaming. Whether it be XBOX Live or an independent online game, such as World of Warcraft, you will never be short of a community where you can join other members to chat about your passion. But what about the younger generation? Online gaming is mostly considered to be adult territory where each forum or community adheres to their own set of rules and regulations. Most of the communities don't even hold their members to any rules. That's not something that I would want to expose my up and coming online gamers. That's where ActionAllStars.com comes in.

ActionAllStars.com is a fun, safe environment where kids can join a free online community and enjoy a great game of football, baseball, or basketball with other fellow sports enthusiasts. It's perfect to introduce our children to an online community. It's fast and did I mention it's free? Set up was no longer than 5 minutes and I was into the game immediately after that. Check out Metallman's avatar.


Being a football and basketball fan, I checked out the games and was pleasantly surprised by the game play. Easy to learn and even easier to play. Action All Stars and their sponsors, which include the NBA and MLB, created the perfect environment for the young enthusiast. And the best part? It's extremely safe for your young ones to chat and explore. The site has "Moderators", adults overseeing the site, to assure that everything is running smoothly, and the chat option has safeguard features that prohibits the use of certain words that are not kid friendly. You cannot go wrong with a community like this.

Fast, fun, and free entertainment awaits at ActionAllStars.com. Check it out friends. There's finally a community out there that knows how to take care of the younger online generation. Later.

An Operation and the Pitter Patter of a Little One

Hey there. I am here to announce the addition of a little one to our family! Lucy is now comfortably sleeping in our home and we couldn't be happier. It's great to hear the pitter patter of a little one as she zooms past us as she plays. What? How can she zoom? Well... she's our new puppy! Check her out.

She's a little one. You can really get a feel for her size when she's next to our TV remote.
My wife has been wanting a little dog since forever. Most of them are expensive as hell. Don't know if it's because they stay little or because a lot of celebrities stuff em in purses or whatever. When my aunt told us that their dog has pups, I initially shot down the idea. My wife was not too pleased. Fast forward to New Years Eve. As my wife was going through some pics on my mother's phone, she saw pics of the pups and again, said that she wanted one. Me, being the "jerk" that I am, said no. As we were lying in bed the next day, I thought over the idea. The pup is little and it'll be inside, I guess it won't be so bad having another little one. I told my wife I rethought it and she was thrilled. I called my aunt right away and off I went to pick up Lucy.

So... how does Lucy repay the favor of having a home and a loving family? She decides to "bite the hand that feeds". lol


Overall, we liked the name Lucy. My babe because of Lucy from I Love Lucy and I because of Lucy from Elfen Lied. Lucy was timid at first but she's already used to hanging around the house and she gets into little scuffles with our cat, Jack. I'm sure they'll get used to each other soon enough. The real battle will be getting her potty trained. I'm already getting a little tired of picking up her crap. lmao

Since we are on vacation, we're trying to spend some extra time with the kiddos. We picked up the game, Operation, from Target the other day. We finally cracked it open last night. With the exception of my wife, it our family's first time playing. She did say that it's a revamped version. All the original pieces were gone, except for the rubber band. It was pretty fun. It's kinda hard too. Kids laughed cause the guy on the table has "toxic gas"... and as my wife pointed out, "just like daddy." lmao



Once I get my doctorate degree in Operations, I'll let you guys know. lmao Later!

Happy New Year

Hey there. Out with 2008 and in with 2009. We spent the evening at my aunt's house to celebrate the incoming of the new year. As many family gatherings that night, there was more than enough liquor to go around. It was kinda funny, actually. I called my aunt earlier in the day to ask what dish to bring in, you know, a desert, chips, or whatever. She said that she's asking everyone to bring a 30 pack of beer or a liquor bottle, you choice. lol I laughed at first but then she said that it's better that way cause she doesn't want anyone driving in the middle in the night looking for booze. Good idea, I'm sure cops were going to be everywhere patrolling the streets looking for a quick and easy DUI citation. My aunt said, be there at 6... sharp. We're of hispanic origin, you know that 6 really means 7:30 ish, lol. We end up getting to my aunts at like 7:30 or so, my wife thought that we were late. My aunt was just taking a shower and we were the first ones there. lol

I love the 2009 sign they had up. Looks like even the sign was hit by the bad economy. lol Just look at that crafty 9.

It was fun. We all chatted and then danced the night away. My cuz brought some Lambrusco wine and we had us some of that. It was funny cause my aunts had no clue what it was. They were calling it things like, "El Muslo", "Chamuco", or "El Busto". They didn't like, they considered it "pretty strong", which made me laugh since they were downing Hornitos and Cazadores.

My wife and I ended up dancing the night away. Our daughter was up dancing with us. Before long, it was 2:30 or so and our kids were knocked out. Time for us to go. Good times, good times. Here are a few pics of the night.

The dance floor was rockin'.

Here we are with our daughter after a short break from dancing.

Here we are with my mother and brother.

This is one funny pic. The ladies got together to take a pic. But what's this in the back??? My uncle snuck into the picture! That's him in the back. The man is hilarious. lmao

Here is my babe dancing with our daughter.

My aunt got up to dance and asked me to hold her seat for her. She meant it literally, look. lmao

Here is my babe, giving me a kiss as the clock strikes 12.


I wish all my friends, virtual and otherwise, a very prosperous new year. Most of us had a pretty rough 2008 so here's to a better 2009. Later!

Forced Vacation

Hey there friends. We are on "forced vacation". We won't be back at work until Jan. 19th. We usually tend to take our vacation when the kids are on vacation so that we can spend time with the kids and do activities with them. Well, this time, that's not going to be the case. Work pretty much told my wife and I that we have to much vacation time and we need to take it now. That's great! A much need break from work. But wait, also bad... The kids will be back in school soon so we won't be able to sleep in since we will need to get up at 6 ish to get them ready for school. We also didn't plan anything since the vacation was just sprung on us. I'm so not used to the time off. We accumulate about a month vacation over the course of the year but because we're needed at work, we only take a week or two a year and anything left over, we cash in on. Well, at least this way I can get to some much needed yard work done. Which brings me to yesterday morning...

I was out, cleaning up my lawn when I get an Email from The Admin at New Dilemma, wishing me a good holiday and asking if the Mexican Mafia got to me, since I disappeared after posting the Accordion Hero game. I laughed. I wrote back, from my phone, saying that I used to do most of my posts at work (I'm a very productive employee, as you can see) and since I'm not there, I need to get used to doing them at home. I also mentioned that this one mariachi band has been circling my house, giving me ominous stares so maybe it's a good idea that I stay on the down low for a bit. lol

It's about 9:30 AM now. I'm still in bed, looking out my window. I'm going to have me some breakfast in a minute and then go back outside and get a little more work done. Since I'll be home for a little over 3 weeks, I'm sure I'll have plenty of time to get to some projects that I've had lined up since forever. No more excuses now. It's showtime. Later!

Accordion Hero!!!

Hey there. This is for all of you friends out there that are just not into the rock movement. lol
