My Cambodain Dinner – 08/16/2009

Alan Hoskins — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 02:42:50 +0000

Tomorrow my mother turns 50 so for her Sunday celebration dinner I made a dish that she enjoys. I learned how to make this Cambodian (maybe influenced from other cultures) dish from my son’s Aunt back when she visited last year and have since had to make it multiple times as my family enjoys it.

Prototype, surprisingly doesn’t suck

Alan Hoskins — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 00:45:00 +0000

When Prototype was released I admit that I had high hopes that this game would rock. The concept of running around consuming people, using my powers to kick ass, or changing into another person sounded awesome. But due to financial reason I was not able to pick up the game the day or even week [...]

Bored? Looking for something to do? Try OMGPOP!

If you are like me you occasionally (well more than occasionally for me) find yourself clicking around the web looking for something to do. Or maybe you already know of a few sites you visit occasionally to play games, but you are getting bored of what they offer. Well I am here to try and [...]

My Side Projects

Alan Hoskins — Sun, 24 May 2009 03:37:35 +0000

Lately I’ve been trying to find something to occupy my time, while doing something that I find fun. One thing I enjoy doing is tearing apart code/scripts and piecing them together to do what I want and need. So out of the blue a couple weeks ago I thought of the idea to use a [...]

Stranglehold – Why didn’t I get this sooner?

Alan Hoskins — Wed, 13 May 2009 19:21:23 +0000

**Copied over from http://restarted.nerf.tv . Nothing big, was more of a test post for the site** So recently I was at GameStop and wanted to pick up some older used titles. I walked around checking out what they had before I had settled on Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2, because I’ve watched Swift and others [...]

Just switched to HostGator

Alan Hoskins — Mon, 04 May 2009 14:01:05 +0000

Up until last night I had been using 1and1 as a hosting service. I can not complain about the service that I received while with them, but for somethings I wanted to do I was not allowed. I was paying $29.95 for 3 months of “business” hosting yet couldn’t have a wildcard subdomain and some [...]

I am unoriginal, but I am ok with it.

Alan Hoskins — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 19:15:00 +0000

Some people like to create and don’t get me wrong, but I like to try as well. But the thing is, in my eyes, I suck at it. I don’t have originality to create something new. I’ve tried numerous times just to create Wordpress themes and my lack of design skills end up with me [...]

Brand New Theme!

Alan Hoskins — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 18:53:56 +0000

The last couple days I’ve been working on a side project (www.linktheloot.com) in which I am still unsure of what I want to do with it. But as a starter I thought I would set up a website and get it prepped for when I do have any idea. In doing so I had to [...]

Knowing that I Love You, Man

Alan Hoskins — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 18:28:13 +0000

**Warning** The following post may (most likely will) contain spoilers about the movies “Knowing” and “I Love You, Man”. So last week was my birthday in which I turned 27. Being that I can never think of things to do for my birthday, I am pretty boring I know, my brother decided to take me to [...]
