The First Post Of 2009
Posted on January 1, 2009 at 6:55 pm in News.Firstly, I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year. As you may have noticed, I’ve failed to update my own website for quite some time. My life has been very hectic as of late: with college and other life scenarios occurring. Anyways, I have a lot of things planned for this website, and my other websites, in the coming weeks of the New Year.
The first thing that you’ll notice is that I will be making frequent updates to this website. I’ll be publishing articles, tutorials, and other content that should be useful in some way, shape, and/or form.
Ruff Audio is finally coming along. I am currently working on the design and I anticipate that the finished product should be online within the next few weeks. Flip This Beat will be worked on shortly after, with the current aim of that website undecided. I’ve also derived new plans for my GCEX.NET domain since I’ve been unable to sale it. Those details will be released at a later time.
I would also like to highlight a new project that I am hosting. MyGamingDB is a new website by Ryan Silva. It’s currently under construction but he is working diligently to complete the project within the near future.
Finally, I thought I would inform everyone of my primary New Year’s Resolution. I’m opting for the popular resolution of weight loss this year and I’ll be publishing the progress on my website. The whole process should be a lot of fun and pain.

Posted on October 14, 2008 at 2:26 pm in News.Hey everyone, I’m currently looking to see a few items of mine. I’ll be placing these items on eBay in the near future. If you are interested in a certain item, email me and I’ll reply with the eBay sell thread once I get it online. If you don’t want to go through the eBay process, make me an offer and we’ll go from there. I’d prefer PayPal, but if you like, you could mail me cash, check, or money order (which would be preferred in transactions not done through eBay).
Firstly, I have the unopened Spider-Man 3 Blu-ray disc that came with my Playstation 3. I never liked the Spider-Man movies (any of them, especially the third one) and I’ve never opened the Blu-ray disc that came with my 40 GB Playstation 3 when I received it last year. Including shipping, I’d be willing to let it go for $10.
Secondly, I have an Akai S1000PB for sale. I originally bought it, along with a Roland SP-700, from a guy who was cleaning out a music studio in Los Angeles. I don’t use this unit and I am looking to offload it to someone else. It has the maximum 32 megabytes of RAM and it is in solid working condition. The only issues are cosmetic scratches and a dimmed LCD screen (which is common with old Akai hardware). The repair of this issue is quite easy and I could provide you with the instructions, or if you are willing to pay extra, I could even do the repair myself. I’d be willing to let this sample player go for $50 plus shipping.
I’m also willing to part with the SP-700 that I purchased with the Akai mentioned above. As much as I love the module, I still find it easier for me to work with my samples through the computer. As of right now, the Akai and the SP-700 are collecting dust next to my computer at my house. Besides the cosmetic scratches expected for an old unit, the SP-700 is in great working condition. As with the Akai, I’d be willing to let this unit go for $50 plus shipping.
I also have some various computer parts from an old Acer Aspire laptop that I recently purchased to fix my Aspire. These parts include a monitor (cracked), a motherboard (seller told me that the item wasn’t working), a DVD/CD-RW drive, and a 60 GB Toshiba hard drive that comes with the caddy. I will also throw in the Windows Vista Home Basic OEM disc that came with the laptop along with two COA’s, the one that came from the bottom of my laptop and the one that came from the laptop I used for parts. I have no desired price for these items and will accept any reasonable offer that comes my way.
I have some other items that I will be listing on eBay as well. These items include old electronics (cellular phones, et cetera) and various computer applications and parts.
If you have any of the following items, I would be willing to discuss a trade with you:
- Musical instruments (MIDI controllers, drum machines, synthesizers, cables, and rack modules)
- Playstation 3 video games
- TigerDirect.com gift cards
- Domains and/or websites
Like I said, if you are interested in buying one of the mentioned items or trading for one of the mentioned items, send me an email via the Contact page and we’ll go from there. Please note one thing: I will not ship any item overseas. It’s too much trouble to go through that process. If you live overseas and want to purchase an item I have for sale, I suggest that you find a friend within the United States that can receive the items from me and then ship them to you. I am not willing to trade with any non-US residents due to the hassle that it would cause.
If you are interested in some of the other items I’ll have for sale (the computer applications, parts, et cetera), email me and I’ll give you a rought list of what I plan to put online for auction.

Posted on October 14, 2008 at 1:04 pm in News.Forget the Thug Life, I’m living the dorm life. And, in all honesty, it isn’t an accomplishment that I want to brag about. Regardless, I’m here and it has provided me with a lot of free time.
I’m currently working on getting the Ruff Audio website online along with a few other websites. Until I have Ruff Audio online, I would encourage you to check out my friend, Greg, who has recently recorded over several of my tracks.
I can claim “Will Never Be Mine”, “Any Moment”, and “Get ‘Em” as my original creations.
I’ve also came up with an idea for a mixtape that I’m going to pursue with the inevitable launch of Ruff Audio. Progress has been slower than I originally anticipated but it’s still coming along, even if it’s at a slow rate. There are disadvantages to being lazy, after all.

Posted on September 17, 2008 at 1:33 am in News.You may have noticed that the website has been down for the past few days. Ryan Silva, my good friend who has allowed me to leech off of his hosting for several years, had encountered some issues that prevented him from paying the balance on his account at WebSolvents. He decided to close the account and I finally got around to purchasing my hosting from the fine people at Nixism.
I’m currently in the progress of doing a major overhaul on the website so that I can get around to uploading my other websites (Ruff Audio, Flip This Beat, et cetera).
Finally, since I have Reseller Hosting now, I may “lease” out a few hosting slots for a nominal monthly fee. If I decide to do this, I’ll let you all know.
That’s all folks.

Posted on August 30, 2008 at 11:40 pm in News.I haven’t had a chance to post on the website this month (busy with personal issues) but I figured that I would make a post before the end of the month.
September is going to be a busy month for me and I expect the same thing from October. I am currently in the progress of getting Ruff Audio online.
Additionally, I’m forced to sell Killzone Boards. I had high aims for that project, like most of my projects, but it isn’t going to pan out due to me heading to college next month and the lack of time that I’m going to have.
That’s it for now.
