Saturday Night. Took the first two bosses with out too much trouble. Opened up my Talent Pane to make sure there hadn’t been a patch which reset my points. Im a bit out of practice. Third boss gave us a bit of trouble. Think we had the dance down but got wiped for one reason or another.
Sunday Night:
Our Weeks in TOR:
Cypher:
Ran a few heroic 2+ missions with Hyp and Teo. Had a rough start and had a group that wanted to join us. Finished it in the end and got some great gear from quest rewards.
Lvl 25- Was on a quest to find a non lame mount, but it looks like it was removed from the game.
Have to grind a few more lvl’s to be able to finish my class quest on Tatoone. Im lvl 26 and the bosses are 29.

Listening to @TheAddictedCast I did cancel my cable as I got so fed up with crap Warner paying $150 just for cable a month,
if you just pick a few shows to buy from iTunes or amazon it's still cheaper than cable

Paranoid:
Paranoid is back in action this week as we return from our holiday hiatus on Sat. Will our heroes take down Deathwing? Or will they fall in Lava... Tune in nest week to find out.
E-Peen:
- Loving the space battles. I was a bit skepticle when I heard they were on rails, but I think it works just fine. You do have some control over the ship and although it can be a bit frustraiting when you want to make another pass and the ship is heading in the wrong direction its enough control to still give the illusion of flying. Good experience points for the first run.
- Find that I tend to be finishing my main story quests before I'm the right level to move to the next area. Either I’m not doing enough side quests or they aren’t spaced right. Finished Taris but still had a ton of the map that was undiscovered. The next planet was 3 levels ahead of where I was. Had to land on Taris again and do a bit more questing.
- Want to get one of the speeder bikes they used as a taxi on taris.
- Whats with taking off and landing everytime I enter my ship? I just want to talk to someone in the cargo hold of my ship... I gotta enter orbit to do it?
- Rolled a Jedi Knight. Haven’t started playing him yet.

Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011)
The 2nd Sherlock Holmes film staring Robert Downey Jr as Holmes, Jude Law as Watson and directed by Guy Richie. This time they are also joined by Noomi Rapace (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) who do an excellent job playing a gypsy who was unwittingly caught up in Moriaty’s plans.
Taken for what it is, (a fast paced action movie) I thought it was very enjoyable. Not enough of Sherlock doing his detective thing for my taste. It’s also very much a Bro-mance maybe even more than its a detective story as Sherlock has a hard time letting go of his friend Watson who is trying to get married and move on. The characters have a great report and its fun watching them do their verbal sparing.
-- Overall: Worth seeing on the big screen.

TV Shows:
Cypher:
Breaking Bad: Saw the fly episode- good, but not as good as them getting stranded in the dessert. Jesse discovers that selling to people in rehab is not that easy, and gets a girlfriend. Skyler wants to get involved with the money laundering. Gus has diner with Walter- gives him cryptic advise. (don’t make the same mistake twice) Jesse discovers the identity of the kid and crew that killed homeslice. Comes up with a plan to kill them with poison which Walter wants no part of. Gus finds out and brings them all in. Gus tells Jesse to keep the peace and tells the dealers to stop using kids. They kill the kid and jesse goes to shoot them. Walter runs over both of them with his car and shoots one in the head.
Sherlock Holmes (BBC): Season 2 of the Moffit written series has started with a bang. Excellent show with all of the magic of the first season. Love Sherlocks portrayal in this series.

@TheAddictedCast I've never heard that horrendous Slade xmas crap in Australia. Strictly UK hit, I suspect.
Jason Etheridge @jasonetheridge2d
@TheAddictedCast Both @Rrubb and I first got seriously drunk on Bundy rum, hence our distaste. Otherwise I guess it's fine.
OotiniCast @OotiniCast
@TheAddictedCast Jelly here, too. Ironic that the Americans call it jello, and we don't! "Red and bounces." Nice,@hypknotoad.
Jason Candelaria @Continuumm_PoH
@OotiniCast @TheAddictedCast@hypknotoad it called jell-o in American because that is the brand name of the gelatine that is most common.
Tempeste @tempeste
@Continuumm_PoH @OotiniCast@TheAddictedCast @hypknotoad so you agree it is jelly then? So what are you gonna call your jam?
Jason Candelaria @Continuumm_PoH
@tempeste @OotiniCast@TheAddictedCast @hypknotoad jellies and jams are considered 2 different types of spreads. How it's made I think etc.

Voicemail from leralond.
to Hypknotoad and Cypher_X,
To the guys, that talk more about food than Warcraft,
To the guys that from episode one, made me laughed,
To the guys that have a great chemistry,
Whether its about food or oniology.
the only thing confusing, is that witch thing,
Wether you mean; Wich, Witch or the whych is something i have trouble understanding
Nonetheless, you 2 make me laugh every week,
With topics for every kinda geek.
Ill end this rhyme with famous words from australia,
CYA!!

@theaddictedcast Cranberry sauce also comes in a jar here... never heard of it in a tin. Tupperware company conspiracy?
Jason Candelaria @Continuumm_PoH15 Dec
@jasonetheridge @theaddictedcast very common for it to be in a tin here. Silly American differences.
Brandon L Starr @BrandonLStarr15 Dec

Very little this week in wow not even any raiding so far.
Paranoid:
Killed the 1st 2 bosses in the raid. People seemed to think the night was anti-climatic as we ended up quiting do to internet problems (oni) and waiting for Hyp to get his Key Bindings sorted.
Had fun and it was great to be back in the raid with the crew. Looking forward to taking down deathwing. Raiding has been canceled for this week and next due to the holidays.Our Weeks in ToR:Cypher:

Finished the season highly recomended lots of twists can’t wait for season 2.
Boardwalk Empire
Season Finale ends a bit unexpectedly for me. Lot’s of loose ends tied up, but makes me wonder where the series will go from here.
Important points: Van Alden moves the the Mid-West, Nucky gets a miss-trial, Jimmy tries to settle things with Nucky and pays the ultimate price, Margret gets married and gives the land to the church.(Spoilers)
Games:
Skyrim:
I’ve side stepped the main story to explore the Dark Brotherhood storyline. May like it even more than the Thieves guild. I was expecting it to be a shorter throw away story like like in Oblivion. Shadowmere Is a cool horse that you can get during it.
Thanks for listening.
No show this week
Cypher and I are stuck at work this week but rest assured we'll have a jam (not sure if it's ribbed) packed show next week to make up for it.
Happy holidays and all that malarky.
Thanks for listening.
