Kontroversial Keith: Saying It and Meaning It.

  • World of Warcraft: Mist of Pandaria Patch 5.0 and 5.1 Retrospective

    Okay, probably I won’t go much into depth about Patch 5.1 considering that the most I’ve dealt with in that patch is the new dailies. But I would like to review the current game since Patch 5.2 is coming out in a week or so. So far we’ve been introduced to a new continent with…

  • Diablo 3: Patch 1.7 Thoughts

    Supposedly, patch 1.7 was going to be a pretty big patch, especially after the tiny 1.6 patch that was slipped in and forgotten a while back. The main aspects introduced were the so-called PVP parts, new account bound crafting recipes, gem upgrades, changes to XP for monster power and reflect damage nerfs. There were other…

  • World of Warcraft: Blizzard Backs Down on the Valor Point Downgrade for Patch 5.2

    Blizzard announced in a blue post how they’ve retracted their decision for the Valor Point downgrade for the upcoming patch. It was a good move on their part since, as I had mentioned in a previous post, it wasn’t a well thought out plan that differed too drastically from previous expansions. However, this move doesn’t…

  • Lego 4207 City Garage Review

    Lego 4207 is actually an older set from 2012 that I just picked up. I hadn’t made a major Lego purchase in a while but I knew that I absolutely had to own this set. Essentially, the City Garage is a remake of the only other city garage type of system back from 1988 known…

  • Building A Great Company

    Having been in the tech industry for 13-14 years now, I’ve considered myself not just a straight tech worker but an entrepreneur. You have to be smart as a worker because getting the industry has a serious case of manic depression. That said, being the business-minded engineer, I’ve been a keen observer about how businesses…

  • Lego 60004 Fire Station Review

    As a long time fire station Lego collector, I’ve seen them all and I think I might have virtually every Lego fire station in existence. So imagine how pumped up I was in seeing this 2013’s newest edition: 60004. Entitled simply “Fire Station”, 60004 quite possibly is the most epic Lego fire station ever made.…

  • Message to Recruiters on PHP and Magento

    The other day a recruiter tried to lure me into an opportunity for a Magento shop. I gave him a pretty high figure, which was partly me trolling him and me seeing how far he would play along. Not surprisingly, he retorted that the company in question had a ceiling quite below what I asked…

  • Marriage and Why I Haven’t Gone Through It

    I’m going to turn 38 this coming week and yet I have no one special in my life as a partner. Some people will tell me that I need to find someone soon or that I face the consequence of being single the rest of my life. Others have told me that when I’m ready,…

  • Lego City 60002 and 60003 Review

    In my next set of reviews of sets I recently purchased, we have two new Lego City fire sets in 60002 and 60003. Anyone who has known me since my childhood realizes that I’ve been a big Lego fire nut. My second major set in my life was Engine Company No 1, which set off…

  • Lego 70705 Review

    I decided to bite the bullet today and pick up a few Lego sets at Target. The first one I built was 70705 from the new series Galaxy Squad called “Bug Obliterator.” The set is actually three vehicles where one can be combined from the two Galaxy Squad sections and the other is a wasp-like…
