Saying Goodbye to an old friend… TheGamer
Today (or rather this week) I say goodbye to an old friend. TheGamer! She was a beauty of a PC.. I purchased her in 2011, almost 8 years ago. I also replaced her original motherboard with one that I could finally overclock and took her from 3.4Ghz to 4.43Ghz. She was a dream of a [–READ MORE–]

Marvel’s Inhumans Episode #1
So I’ve heard so much bad press about this series, but also some good press. Reviews are mixed, but of course there is always a story behind things. What I’ve heard is that this entire series was started with just 6 weeks lead time. Normally a TV series, especially one of this complexity should take [–READ MORE–]
Update on the Gaming PC
Sometimes I like to benchmark for the sake of benchmarking… found this site.. userbenchmark.com and so I ran mine up against others.. not a bad performance for an aging old lady..

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2
What an amazing movie! I loved it. 9 out of 10 stars. There were a few spots were the story wore somewhat thin, but overall it was funny, well written and the special effects were extremely well done! Not going to go into spoilers or story re-hash, you will just go see it.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Loving it!
I’ve been playing PUBG for about 3 weeks now and I can’t get enough. It’s been so bad, other games have fallen off my radar and my youtube channel is all PUBG footage. (here go check!) https://www.youtube.com/user/GMSpada However, it’s great fun and they’ve promised to release a new patch every month while it’s in early access. [–READ MORE–]
Coaching a Young Girls Soccer Team Part 1
Hello there everyone! (and my future self) This year was a special year. I had the pleasure of having my daughter want to take her second season of soccer via a local soccer league. She’s 10 years old and she is very fond of the sport and puts all her effort and drive into it. [–READ MORE–]

Today (or rather this week) I

say goodbye to an old friend. TheGamer! She was a beauty of a PC.. I purchased her in 2011, almost 8 years ago. I also replaced her original motherboard with one that I could finally overclock and took her from 3.4Ghz to 4.43Ghz. She was a dream of a computer after replacing parts as needed. I transition now to an I7-7700K with a GTX 1080 and two 4k Monitors.
