Hey folks, I'm a little bit late posting this week but here I am none the less. I'd like to start off by giving a HUGE thank you to everyone who has been supporting The Ubiquitous Gentlemen, we've had a spectacular week and we hope things just keep getting better from here,so THANK YOU! We are hoping to have a new Gentleman join our ranks soon so that will be exciting and it will get us out there even more, keep recommending us to friends and family and we will keep loving you long time.
It's been a really good week for me on a personal level too, I finally got my own computer, and it was free, and it's not half bad! Good enough that I've been running League of Legends, World of Warcraft, and, most importantly, Diablo 3, so I've been having a pretty great week for gaming. It's making it a lot easier to keep my blogs up to date and that is something that is super important to me.
Also this week I found out that I got excepted to go to University during the Fall Semester for some upgrading and I also applied to go into the Bachelor of Communications program, so that will be fun, expensive, but fun.
For all you YouTube frequenter's out there, there are two channels that you need to be watching along with what ever great programming you watch. You need to be watching Nerdist Channel and Geek and Sundry. They are two great channels run by some amazing individuals, Nerdist is run by a man named Chris Hardwick, and Geek and Sundry is run by Felicia Day and Mr Wil Wheaton himself. So go check out those channels, they have videos almost every day of the week, so it's great.
Here's this last week's TUB posts:
Stuck Up Cinema - Hyping Beyond the Black Rainbow The Critic - The Intouchables Zero Lives Left - Soulcalibur V Between the Panels - Spider-Men Issue 1 and Batman Issue 10 Stuck Up Cinema - Jesus Christ's Controversial Temtation A Gentlemen's Duel - Prometheus
I really don't have anything else interesting to say so it's music time!

A Quicky
Hey everyone, I hope your week has been more interesting than mine. Not too much has been going on for me over here, I'm still getting used to the new apartment and learning the new neighborhood. Of course I've been blogging over on The Ubiquitous Gentlemen as usual, it's been a pretty good week for us over there, Justin and I are having a lot of fun over there and I hope you continue to check it out. I saw an absolutely amazing movie this last week called The Intouchables, check out that link to the wiki page and I'll throw up a trailer for it HERE; my review of it will be up on Tuesday. Yes, it is in fact a French film, but it is easily one of the greatest films I've seen in a very long time.
This last week has been great for the gamers of the world, E3 just wrapped up on Friday. For those of you who don't know what E3 is, it's The Electronic Entertainment Expo, it's a massive gaming expo that takes place in California once a year. New systems are introduced and new games are shown and demoed. A lot of great stuff has been shown and talked about from what I hear, sadly I'm very behind on it, as I'm typing this I'm watching Day 1 of E3 on my PVR, so I'll probably talk more about it next week.
I had a great time with two of my very good friends this week, it was my buddy Scott's 19th this week so we went over to a local pub and had a very good time. And then yesterday I went over to another friends place and we basically just talked all night. Good times were had all around.
As I suggested in the title of this blog, its a short one and that's basically all I've got for you all this week. Here are the links to this week's TUG posts:
Stuck Up Cinema - The Avengers The Critic - Men in Black 3 Zero Lives Left - Asura's Wrath Between the Panels - Before Watchmen: Minute Men Issue 1 and Harbinger Issue 1 Readers Indigestion - Acacia Part 2: The Halfway Point
There's no music I want to post this week, but I'm going to leave you with two very cool video's on the Brony Phenomenon, something I am proudly a part of. The first one is a video that was thrown up on Kick Starter for a Brony Documentary and the second is a really cool bit from The Idea Channel talking about Bronies and the definition of Masculinity.
Documentary Are Bronies Changing the Definition of Masculinity?
So check both of those out and that's all I've got this week. Talk to yall later.

It's Been Far Too Long
Wow it's been a while since I posted, I've been super busy these last couple of weeks with the whole move and getting unpacked and settled and all that other crap that's been going on in my life. But finally I have a few minutes to write a blog for you all to read. Before I get too it I'd like to thank everyone who has been supporting The Ubiquitous Gentlemen in our first month of it going on. We've had some pretty great success considering we've only been at it for a month and Justin and I are super proud of what we are accomplishing so far. On that note I'm gonna just post the last three weeks worth of posts right up front just to get it over with. Here we go!
Readers Indigestion: The Name of the Wind P.1 Stuck Up Cinema: Cosmopolis and 80s Cronenberg The Critic: Serenity Zero Lives Left: Alpha Protocol Between the Panels: Star Wars Dawn of the Jedi Issue 1 and Footprints Readers Indigestion: Tough Sh*t P.1 Stuck Up Cinema: Three Movies You Need To See P.1 The Critic: Dark Shadows Zero Lives Left: Catherine Between the Panels: Batman Inc Issue 1 and The Guild: Fawkes Issue 1 Stuck Up Cinema: What`s the Best Video Game Movie? Channel Surfers: Continuum "A Stitch in Time" Zero Lives Left: Bioshock 2 and Minerva's Den DLC Between the Panels: Batman Annual and Grim Leaper Issue 1 Readers Indigestion: The Name of the Wind P.2
I promise I will NEVER get that behind again, seriously, that is ridiculous!
So since I last posted my mother and I have successfully found an apartment and have moved in, we've been here for about two weeks at this point, its really different from living in a three story townhouse but we've made it work really well. We are still living out of some boxes but for the most part we are unpacked, I got the book self nice and organized and now I just need to finish setting up my room, should be done all of that in the next week or so. I've applied to go to school to get some upgrading done this Fall semester and then next Fall semester I hope to be going into Bachelor of Communications. So if I get into the upgrading program I'll look for a job after the first month or so of that so that I can get into the grove of school and than I'll go from there, otherwise I'll be looking for a job a lot sooner.
I've been watching a lot of shows from when I was growing up recently, it's been a lot of fun and a lot of reminiscing has been going on. I started with watching Alf, Fresh Prince, and Full House on TV but then I was at Wal-Mart a few months ago and found the full series of Saved By The Bell and I bought it without a second thought. Then the last few weeks I've been borrowing Boy Meets World off my brother. There were some seriously great shows on while I was growing up but there really aren't anything like them on TV anymore, and that make s me sad. Kids need great shows like that to be able to watch, all of those shows taught values that seem not to be important anymore but watching those shows they just come so naturally that it doesn't make sense that a lot of kids don't get to see that any more.
I think that's really all for me to talk about right now, so I guess that means it's time for some music isn't it? Oh, before that here's an article about something interesting that's going on in California. It's talking about a large group of people and corporations that are trying to convince Americans that it's okay if they don't know what goes into their food, and what food has been genetically modified. It's rather concerning to see that so many people are for this secrecy, and I know that it may not seem all that important but if it goes through in one state it can go through in others and possibly make its way up to Canada. We have a right to know what goes in our food so that we can make proper nutritional choices. Check out the article HERE. It's a really interesting read.
