This Goes Out to My Pal, Rich

'Sup, Rich? I hear you were poking fun at my lack of blog updates to Tara! So I'm posting this out of spite :P

Anywho, FIFA08 is done and on store shelves. Exciting stuff. I worked on the "Soccer Academy" feature in the Wii version. While there's definitely room for improvement, I think it turned out alright. I'm also on to the next project, but since it's not announced yet I'm not supposed to say what it is. It won't be a big surprise, though ;)

Haha, so the funniest thing happened at work the other day. I was in the washroom, doing my thing, when I hear a phone start ringing in one of the stalls. I knew it was going to be awesome right off the bat since the ringtone was the Superman movie theme. Anyway, the guy picks up and is talking to what sounded like a new hire candidate (possibly looking to organize an interview). The guy says that he's a bit busy at the moment, but can he get their contact information. He gets their phone number and, right when he's getting the email address, the person in the next stall decides they can't wait any longer to leave and flushes the toilet.

Now up to this point, the person on the other end probably didn't know the guy was taking a dump, but only one thing makes a sound like that. And just to clarify things, a person in another stall leaves and flushes their toilet. Twice. The guy gets their email address and then says "So what was your name again? Ah, Melissa."

At this point, I was doing everything in my power to not bust out laughing. He hangs up and mumbles under his breath "Jesus Christ, that wasn't embarrassing." Possibly one of the funniest things I've witnessed first hand. Lesson learned: never answer your phone when you're dropping the kids off at the pool. Don't even take your phone with you to the pool. It's for the best. Gotta give him credit for keeping his cool throughout the whole thing, though.

I've also been getting into a new band called Mastodon. They're pretty well known by metalheads, I just never really heard them before. Awesome stuff if you're into metal!
