The one with Paris Hilton "Freestylin"

I like Snoop! Ive been listening to him for donkey's years. I like the DoggFather. Its one of the few bits of reality TV muck that I can actually tolerate.  But what in the name of shizzle 

is the D-O-Gx2 doing with Paris Hilton. Surely the producers aint that stuck for a guest. Its major cringeness when she goes "Aight".

Is there anything Paris Hilton is good for.....No. Not that either. Ive seen the video.

The one with the Lost and the Damned

Just got to spend some time with the new DLC for GTA IV on the Xbox 360. Wow! Wow! and yes you guessed it Wow!
In a nutshell, you play Johnny Klebitz (who had a briefish role in GTA IV) and thunder around with a motorbike gang! With all the usual GTA IV style madness! Personally, it almost feels like a totally different game and not a piece of DLC at all. Its the same graphics engine, the same city, but feels very, very different! One of the most substansial pieces of Downloadable Content in quite some time! The download comes in at just under 2GB and is ready to go once you pop in your original GTA IV disc. Theres a whole load of new multiplayer modes over Xbox Live in there as well, which are off the charts!

This DLC had been delayed time and time again, but was it worth the wait? Damn f%&kin right it was!

And at only 1600 MS Points on Xbox Live, its a bargain!

The one with Jim Carrey kickin hole!

I used to cycle my hole off every Thursday night to see In Living Color on Sky! One of the reasons is below...

The one with a little history

Getting a bit nostalgic on the blog today, so here's a few of the graphics Ive used since 2004, when victorbarry.com kicked off.

This is the most recent splash page.

This is from Feb 05. Not sure how long it was used for. The faint image of me, was taken at our house warming attempting to do some Karaoke.

And the original one! 
Going back to the original site, here's a few bits.....(click to enlarge)

Then I discovered blogger and it was far easier to make stuff more streamlined. Top 5's, downloads and so on! Ahhh nostalgia!

The one with the overhaul!

The blog has finally gotten its first graphical overhaul in quite some time!

Links to the Twitter, Facebook and Bebo are now all on the main splash page here

The one with Peter Griffin vs Christian Bale

Much love to McFarlane

The one with the new Simpsons intro

Rather sweet!

The one with the VD aftermath!

Well Valentines Day is over and done with. Thankfully! I don't hate the day as such, but the tonnes of cheese that go with it are vomit inducing at times. We took a stroll around the city on Saturday afternoon and the amount of shams thundering around with manky, crinkled, bate up looking bunches of flowers was comical. We passed one couple outside the Opera house, with the girl dragging a teddy bear the size of a grizzly bear behind her. "Morto" would have most definitely be used in conversations with the gurls afterward.

Truck loads of people were buying chocolates around, and we were the same. Granted, I was a bit disappointed that Butlers didn't do the chili chocolates in their "pick n mix" selections anymore.  I think there was disappointment in my house that a bunch of flowers didn't arrive, but we stuck to the pre arranged "No presents charter" like the U.N. We went to Hardwood for dinner that night and as usual had a great feed. 

I had to laugh at one couple who came in. They were 16-17 I'd imagine. Don't quote me on that, they could have been 45, but I'm useless with ages. The look on the guys face when he read the menu, was priceless. No Mammy's beans 'n chips! I'm sure they had a great night as well. Gotta say, I'm a big fan of Hardwood!

So that was Valentines done and dusted for another year. I wonder how many got pregnant? Did the teddy bear purchases pay off! Or was it just a thigh rubbing exercise! Y'all have a nice Monday now!
