I will be blogging much more often on my own personal site going forward. It's for the best. I like Mr. DiMola and I don't want to do anything that would anger him. We need more nice guys like him on video game websites.

I was wondering if anybody here is familiar with July 15 being the day every year we celebrate being a dork? More and more people are embracing who they are and not caring what the cool people have to say. Do you have any plans to embrace your inner nerd?

My attempts of clearing my backlog in anticipation of Grand Theft Auto V are going well. I finished Deadly Premonition, Tomb Raider, Journey and Saints Row The 3rd the last couple of weeks. From today until August 10 (my brother's wedding day), I would like to finish Uncharted 3, Ni No Kuni and Sly Cooper: Thieves In Time. From August 10 to GTA V's release, I would like to finish The Last Of Us, Remember Me, Gucamelee! and Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. GTA V and Beyond: Two Souls will easily hold me until the PS4 arrives.

Sadly, I doubt I'll finish any of the PS2 Ratchet & Clank games, Catherine or Okami HD.

I also have to find time for any Bioshock: Infinite DLC.

As for the PC, I have to finish Binary Domain, Alan Wake, The Darkness II, Fez, Deus Ex: Human Revolution and a dozen others. At least they can be completed at any time. I've got the PS4 paid up, I can delay the sale of the laptop until 2014.

I'm excited about Sunday, since B.B. King and Mitch Ryder will be at Bluesfest. I've always loved Mitch Ryder's hard rock 'n roll. I'm looking more forward to his show. My friend and I already know exactly how B.B.'s set will go.

1. His Orchestra will play a couple of instrumentals.

2. He will be announced, will play some guitar.

3. He'll sing Everyday I Have The Blues.

4. He'll do two more numbers, maybe 3 O'Clock Blues will be one of them.

5. He'll sit down and do his trio of songs that everybody marks out to (Sweet Little Angel, It's My Own Fault, How Blue Can You Get)

6. Do another number.

7. Sing another song where he thanks the fans for coming to see him and supporting him for 61 years.

8. Finish with The Thrill Is Gone, throw some guitar picks, sign a few autographs and that's all.

Still, I adore him. He's the grandfather I never had.
