Nice Muscle, America!!

Regular readers of the site may recall a post from a few months ago where I lamented the fact that the disturbingly bizarre Namco/Bandi game Muscle March was not available for purchase in the Western markets. As I said at the time this game really doesn’t fit all too well into the “fitness game” genre that we generally cover here but, frankly, I don’t care. You could burn calories basking in the sheer awesomeness that is Muscle March. I mean, come on! You can play a body building Polar bear in a swimsuit who has his protein shake powder stolen by a football player, working your way through the various obstacles thrown in your path by going into body builder poses! How can a game like that NOT be good for you??

Well soon there will be no need for you to spend hundreds of dollars for a Japanese version of the Wii to experience the awe that is Muscle March!  Namco/Bandi as announced that Muscle March will be available for download next Winter through Nintendos online service, Wiiware.

The only bummer about this particular announcement is the fact that we have to wait so long for it to be released. I suppose the upside is that we have plenty of time to work on our form so that we’re in top shape and ready to bust some serious protein shake stealing butt next Christmas.

Guess it’s time to go speedo shopping.

Me and My Goatee

For those of you who may not understand how deeply my passion for the goatee is, I present to you my bio from We Won’t Pay!  We Won’t Pay!
Michael McGreevy’s goatee is making it’s first appearance on the Jobsite stage in We Won’t Pay! While on his face during MAXWELL: A New Rock Musical by Joe Popp, it was hidden in a bloated, full beard. Since that time the goatee has gone through rigorous personal training and trimmed down to its current svelte form. Unfortunately, despite being attached to his face, Mr. McGreevy has not been able to include his goatee in a show with Jobsite since. It was too masculine for Cloud 9, too clean cut for Delusion of Darkness, too modern for Machinal, and too suave for The Boys Next Door. The goatee was also excluded from Playing With Fire: After Frankenstein because Victor apparently neglected to include hair follicles in his creation. Mr. McGreevy is excited to be introducing his goatee to the Jobsite audiences, and he hopes that they can appreciate the sheer magnificence of it.

You know what I hate?

Those timed air fresheners in the bathroom.

Yes, I realize they are on a specific timer and that they go off on a regular interval regardless of whether or not anyone is actually IN the bathroom. Thing is, they always seem to go off when I’m in there, and every time it happens I get the feeling that the little bastard is specifically sanitizing against me. “Holy crap!” it seems to be saying. “Here comes Mike! Better make a pre-emptive anti-stink strike.”

Ahh technology – How you feed my paranoia.
