Video: The Cheeseball vs @MyDawgSkip
I don’t really know how to explain this so just watch the video. Skip is such a beggar for human food. The first few cheeseballs that we gave him he ate right up. Since then he has created what can only be described as a ritual that he performs with these little balls of intense…

Mass Effect: Video Game Review
I spent the better part of the last three weekends playing a role playing game (RPG) by the name of Mass Effect. All I can say is WOW! This is by no means a new or recent game as it came out the end of 2007 and has won its fair share of game awards…
