05.19.09 - I'm still stuffed after making baked mostaccioli casserole last night. Apparently Game 4 of the Lakers vs. Nuggets NBA Western Conference Finals is scheduled at the Pepsi Center on the same night as next week's WWE Monday Night Raw. Here are the ESPN and Deadspin versions of the story. I've got to side with the WWE on this one. They will either end up with the Pepsi Center that night or with a ton of money from a lawsuit. There's no one to blame but the inept management of the Denver Nuggets. Podcast time! Check out Episodes 174 and 175 of Daizenshuu EX, Episode 203 of Smart Wrestling Fan, Episode 105 of A Wiggly World, Episode 2 of Smart Video Game Fan, and Episode 199 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk. I'll try to be back a few more times this week.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: May 10-16, 2009

05.11.09 - Hey, guys. I've been a little busy with things. I'm now an assistant football coach at my old high school. I did some work on Photoshop to predict what our new uniforms will look like according to some descriptions I was given. Now my back is killing me after lifting weights for the first time in months. Listen to Episode 197 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk, Episode 202 of Smart Wrestling Fan, and Episode 1 of Smart Video Game Fan. I'm going to go relax and have some fish sticks with salsa ranch now.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: April 26-May 2, 2009

05.02.09 - I'll probably make it a routine to provide larger updates a few times a week. Mike and Meri from Daizenshuu EX had a special on R5 Central: That Dragonball Episode. The 10th Wonder live show is up. Three new weekly podcasts are also available: A Wiggly World Episode 104, Smart Wrestling Fan Episode 201, and Retrospective Episode 4. A portion of this week's A Wiggly World covers Wiggly's Atheist view on death. I found this both incredibly interesting and reassuring. Definitely check it out. I'm pretty optimistic for WWE SmackDown's future after watching the first post-draft episode. The wrestling was very good for a TV show, and all the wrestlers and their interactions with each other felt so fresh and exciting. I really hope they keep this up. Start playing CABAL Online and join my guild. It looks like I'll be finding a new web host soon, as Google is completely fucking its own service over. Wendy's, Hardee's, or Sonic is in my near future.

04.27.09 - Hi. I'm back from my hiatus with a long list of things to click on. Listen to every single one of these podcasts: Episode 173 of Daizenshuu EX, Episode 3 of Retrospective, Episodes 110 and 111 of The 9th, Episode 195 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk, Volume 2 Episode 2 of We Talk Games, Live Show Replay: "I Am Sylar" and Chapter 84 of The 10th Wonder, Episodes 7 and 8 of 2 Geeks 1 Podcast, and Episode 200 of Smart Wrestling Fan. The Heroes Season 3 finale, "An Invisible Thread", is tonight. Watch! I was pretty happy with the Green Bay Packers' draft picks this year. I'm looking forward to seeing a younger, faster defense in the new 3-4 scheme. WWE Backlash was last night. I need to go watch it. I need some Wendy's, too.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: April 12-18, 2009

04.18.09 - It really feels like spring after mowing and grilling out for the first time this year. This might be kind of an inside joke, but I think it's hilarious. Chapter 83 of The 10th Wonder is up. Graham and Derek give their thoughts on "1961". Derek is also on Vicodin. I'm pretty stoked to go to VEISHEA later tonight.

04.17.09 - I'm up early today after giving my relatives rides and getting coffee and breakfast at the gas station. Bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich + hashbrown sticks + tiramisu-flavored cappuccino = great start to the day. Jim Rome is looking for writers. DVR users, don't forget that Heroes will be an extra minute longer next week. I really enjoyed this Heroes Horrors gallery. Can you tell it's a slow news day?

04.16.09 - I got this at Burger King last night, and it was amazing. Go get one. For some reason, all the cats didn't mind hanging out together yesterday. Paul Heyman wrote a great blog on how Dragon Gate USA will challenge Ring of Honor. Episode 191 of The 9th is available. Gerry, Mark, and Miranda all give their initial feelings on "1961". I made a signature for my CABAL guild. Leftover tetrazzini will make a tasty lunch.

04.15.09 - Chicken tenders are so reliable. Episode 199 of Smart Wrestling Fan is available. Check it out to hear Joe's thoughts on the WWE Draft. Episode 103 of A Wiggly World is also available. I haven't had the chance to hear what's on it, but Wiggly always has some interesting things to say. Gabe Sapolsky just posted a new blog with some great news: He's the booker for the new Dragon Gate USA promotion! Cheap fast food and Cabal sounds like a winning combination today.

04.14.09 - I ended up getting meatloaf, baked beans, and macaroni and cheese from the Hy-Vee Deli. It was scrumptious. Funny! Episode 108 of The 9th is available if you'd like a more in-depth look at "Turn and Face the Strange". Check out last night's live show from The 10th Wonder. Greg Beeman posted a new blog for last night's Heroes episode "1961". Episode 194 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk is up. Listen to their opinions of WrestleMania 25. I pretty much agree with them on everything. I don't think the 'Mania blog entry is coming. I just don't care enough anymore. Don't blame me, blame the crappy show. I'm going to continue munching on Easter candy.

04.13.09 - I'm back! LOL. Episode 172 of Daizenshuu EX is available. There's a large amount of hosts in this episode that review Dragonball Evolution. As bad as that movie probably is, I feel like I need to see it. Episode 107 of The 9th is out. Download it to hear Laura, Ray, Miranda, and Kim's thoughts on "Turn and Face the Strange". I'm pretty pumped for tonight's Heroes episode, "1961". Leftover ham and macaroni salad should make for a pretty good meal today.

04.12.09 - Happy Easter! I was with my family all day. I'll be back tomorrow.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: April 5-11, 2009

04.11.09 - No update today. I was busy getting things ready for Easter at my grandma's.

04.10.09 - I jumped eight levels yesterday. Crazy. I'm now at level 82. Speaking of 82, Chapter 82 of The 10th Wonder is available. I haven't listened to it yet, but I'll be sure to when I start play some more Cabal. First I need to catch up on The Ultimate Fighter, Impact, and SmackDown. The WrestleMania blog will come eventually. Crispy chicken salad should make a good late lunch.

04.09.09 - Caballin'!

04.08.09 - The lemon pepper chicken was okay. A little too lemony. Episode 198 of the Smart Wrestling Fan showgram is up on the feed. Joe's WrestleMania views were very similar to mine. My WrestleMania 25 blog should be coming soon. Check out the latest blog entry from Greg Beeman, Director from Heroes. I might as well continue with the blog theme I've got going. Gabe Sapolsky, former booker of Ring of Honor, recently released a new blog entry about Jerry Lynn as ROH Champion, as well as a good story from ECW. I'll probably go with 3conomics while I watch the Cubs later on.

04.07.09 - Hi. Today's entry won't be long. Last night's 10th Wonder live show is up. Time for lemon pepper chicken.

04.06.09 - That Wal-Mart take and bake pizza was delicious. Highly recommended. WrestleMania 25 was last night. For now, you can see my and others' thoughts on the show here. I'd like to eventually write a blog about it. Experience some podcasty goodness with Episode 2 of Retrospective and Episode 106 of The 9th. I'm looking forward to watching 'Turn and Face the Strange' and Monday Night Raw tonight with a plate of chicken tenders.

04.05.09 - I'm so happy! I haven't listened to all of them yet, but there are a lot of great podcast episodes now available: Episode 171 of Daizenshuu EX, Episode 105 of The 9th, Episode 6 of LOL SPORTS, and "Pokémon: The First Movie" of Generation Animetion. I've never listened to the last show, but I'm interested in hearing what the FanOff resident anime experts have to say about a movie I enjoyed years ago. My thoughts on tonight's WrestleMania 25 will be coming soon. Now it's time for my gigantic pepperoni pizza to be showered in Tabasco then devoured.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: March 29-April 4, 2009

04.04.09 - I got busy doing other things, and there wasn't much to report today. I also made jambalaya.

04.03.09 - That salad was incredible. The Iowa Supreme Court ruled Iowa's gay marriage ban unconstitutional today. It's nice to see my state leading the way on this. I wonder how Dana White feels about this? It doesn't matter, because he is a douche bag. On a completely unrelated subject, Chapter 81 of The 10th Wonder is available. I think Graham and Derek liked this week's Heroes episode a lot more than I did. I'm stoked for jambalaya tonight.

04.02.09 - Apparently the Seahawks' green jerseys were an April Fool's joke even though the story came out March 31st. Last night's new episode of South Park, "Eat, Pray, Queef", really sucked. My friend got kicked out of the bar on his 21st birthday. It was apparently country night, so I tried to line dance. That didn't work out too well. I'm enjoying a crispy chicken salad.

04.01.09 - Salsa ranch is awesome. I'm not going to even attempt a bad April Fool's joke. What's not a joke is that I checked my PayPal account a few minutes ago, and apparently I've had over $200 in it for over two years. Neat. Episode 197 of Smart Wrestling Fan is up on the feed. Joe and Jajouka go over the King of Trios results and give their predictions for WrestleMania 25. I forgot to mention yesterday that this week's live show from The 10th Wonder is available. Apparently the Seattle Seahawks are getting green alternate jerseys. Today is my friend's 21st birthday, so tonight should prove to be interesting.

03.31.09 - You can't go wrong with the BK Value Menu. Episodes 191 and 192 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk are finally up. In Episode 191 Nick and Paul make a good effort trying to pronounce "mdunner28". They also hype CHIKARA King of Trios '09. In Episode 192 Will, Nick, and Jason give their thoughts on the first showing of Ring of Honor Wrestling on HDNet. Chicken patties + salsa ranch!

03.30.09 - Apparently Taco Bell's chalupas are now $1.29 and made much crappier than before. I won't get those again. Episode 170 of Daizenshuu EX is available. If you can get past the hosts' goofy elitism, it's a pretty good show. Episode 104 of The 9th is up. Miranda and Tim recap "Cold Snap" and address some rumors. The week-old Episode 191 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk is finally up. I'm not sure why their podcasts have taken so long to be published. @turnip5's new Retrospective podcast is off to a great start with Episode 1. "Into Asylum" airs tonight. Watch it. I don't care what I eat today, as long as it's not a chalupa.

03.29.09 - I have discovered and fallen in love with a great website. It's a video game music remix site called OverClocked ReMix. After browsing for awhile, a few of my favorite songs were this, this, this, and this. Pay the site a visit, you just might find a modern twist on an old childhood favorite. 99 cent chalupas should satisfy my Mexican food craving.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: March 22-28, 2009

03.28.09 - Sorry about yesterday. I've been getting so wrapped up in this game. I'm now at Level 56 and quickly approaching 57. It's kind of embarrassing to see how much I've played this week. Chapter 80 of The 10th Wonder is out, where Derek and Graham discuss this week's Heroes episode's greatness. Episode 103 of The 9th is, too. Listen to their take on the episode. Episode 5 of LOL SPORTS! is also download-ready. Make sure to listen to this hilarious podcast. This week they focus a lot of their time on ugly people in sports. I really, really want Mexican food today.

03.27.09 - I was playing CABAL, lost track of time, and forgot to update. I'll be back tomorrow with some podcasty goodness.

03.26.09 - I had this for dinner. Episode 196 of Joe Negron's fantastic Smart Wrestling Fan podcast is available. This is the first time Ring of Honor has been reviewed on the show, so make sure to check it out. Last night's episode of South Park, Margaritaville, was great. I was wondering how long it would take Matt and Trey to do an episode on the economy. Good stuff. I added a Donate button under the 'Things' column. Let me clarify that this place is not in any kind of trouble of shutting down and donations are purely optional. It has been a while now that I have been interested in getting into podcast production, and your financial support would definitely get me moving quicker on this. Web hosting, recording equipment, and software are necessities in creating great content. I've got ideas on at least three shows with a few of my friends, with the topics being politics, wrestling, and everyday life. If there is any other kind of support you can offer, such as podcast production knowledge or topic expertise, I more than welcome it. Just shoot me an email or tweet. And thank you again for continuing to visit the site. I'm going to go eat some Lucky Charms now.

03.25.09 - Microwaved hot dogs are one of those things in life that you can always depend on. Episodes 101a and 102 of A Wiggly World are available. I'm pretty positive I know what he means when he talks about the whole "us versus them" thing, but I'm not sure too many other listeners will. Do you have Biblical morals? I'm sure glad I don't. I will tweet today's food of choice.

03.24.09 - "Cold Snap" was amazing. So was my spaghetti. Check out The 10th Wonder live show here. I may be a bit late on this, but this song is kind of funny. Pop tarts for lunch.

03.23.09 - Listen to now-available Episode 169 of Daizenshuu EX for an interesting discussion on what defines a true Dragon Ball fan. Tonight's episode of Heroes, Cold Snap, is supposed to be amazing. Make sure you watch it. I would never wear this stuff, but it's kind of cool. Paul Lukas of Uni Watch created a tournament bracket between different kinds of meat. Hilarious read. Now I'm hungry.

03.22.09 - If you haven't already, check out FMyLife.com. Pretty funny stuff there. Here is the new RSS feed you need to subscribe to Smart Wrestling Fan if you want to continue to listen without coming here to find the link. I uploaded a new Peggle video. Will someone please buy me these? I now want tacos thanks to @MK2Fac3.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: March 15-21, 2009

03.21.09 - My bracket is slowly falling apart. Last I knew I had 28 points, but it will probably soon get worse. Episode 190 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk is finally up, if you'd like to make light of Test's passing away (no pun intended). Homemade soup today.

03.20.09 - Free Roastburgers are still the best. As of typing this I am 20-4 on my picks in the NCAAs. I'm doing the best out of my Facebook friends that are also playing. We Talk Games V02E01 is now available for your listening pleasure. I'm going get more Arby's and play CABAL.

03.19.09 - I had a giant pepperoni pizza. I'm getting addicted to CABAL. As of last night I was up to Level 41. Last night's new South Park episode, The Coon, was pretty good. The NCAA tournament started today. I hope you filled out your bracket. I have great news. I got a few more free Roastburger coupons that don't expire until the end of this month. I'm going to go get Arby's and watch some basketball.

03.18.09 - Burger King's Breakfast Value Menu is very meh. The President filled out his NCAA Tournament bracket. Episode 101 of A Wiggly World, Episode 195 of Smart Wrestling Fan, and Episode 4 of LOL SPORTS! are all now up. I have no idea what I'm going to eat today.

03.17.09 - Happy St. Patrick's Day! Tonight should be fun. I took two screenshots to show you what CABAL Online looks like. Give it a try. It's free. Holy crap. Last night's spaghetti was fantastic. Tonight's burgers should be even better.

03.16.09 - So, last night was pretty strange. There's no Heroes on tonight, but you can listen to Chapter 79 of The 10th Wonder to help you live until next week's episode. Hear about the new Dragon Ball Evolution movie on Episode 198 of Daizenshuu EX. I'm thinking tonight is a spaghetti night.

03.15.09 - Gigantic home-cooked meals are definitely the best. Get your Heroes fix with Episode 101 of The 9th. Get your wrestling fix with Machomania Part 1 and Part 2. Fish fillets con thousand island FTW!

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: March 8-14, 2009

03.14.09 - I was celebrating my mom's birthday with family today, so there wasn't an update. I'll be back tomorrow.

03.13.09 - Looking for a good, free MMORPG? Look no further. I've spent a lot of my time playing CABAL Online. I need someone to play with. It's Follow Friday. I've been on a strict chips and salsa diet for the last day. I think I've earned a burger or five.

03.12.09 - I had a good time eating pizza and hanging out with my cousins yesterday. Last night's South Park was hilarious. The show is definitely off to a much better start than last season. My buddies are having a party this weekend. You should go if you're from the area. Time for a pork tenderloin.

03.11.09 - I spent a long time making big coding changes on the site. Everything should run much more efficiently now. The page (more importantly the background) will load much faster. Enjoy the changes! Episode 100 of A Wiggly World is up. Episode 193 of Smart Wrestling Fan is too. You can get through Wiggly and Joe not being together by listening to both of these fantastic podcasts back-to-back. I ended up having tacos last night, and they were amazing! If I don't end up making more tonight, I'll surely make spaghetti.

03.10.09 - I miss that Arby's coupon already. Kayak Long Cut Grape is...different. The 10th Wonder live show is up. Another picture is up on the Weekly Wrestling Picture Thread. That's all I've really got for you today. Tomorrow will be a busier news day. I'm going to go have spaghetti.

03.09.09 - Sorry today's update is so late. I had a lot of sleep to catch up on. Here are all the newly available podcasts: Episode 189 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk, Episode 3 of LOL SPORTS!, Episode 100 of The 9th, and Episode 167 of Daizenshuu EX. I just had Fazoli's. It was tasty.

03.08.09 - Just got back from Ames, where I visited some friends. I'm going to go relax. I'll be back 100% tomorrow.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: March 1-7, 2009

03.07.09 - At a mini family reunion thing today. No update. Sorry.

03.06.09 - I did it. I had another Roastburger. This time it was of the Bacon & Bleu Cheese variety. Episode 99 of The 9th is out. I uploaded two YouTube videos: My Greatest Peggle Shot Ever and mdunner28's Peggle Replays. Tonight I'd like to try the All-American Roastburger.

03.05.09 - I had tacos last night. Episode 193 of Joe Negron's I Am A Cat Podcast Smart Wrestling Fan is available. Chapter 78 of The 10th Wonder is up. This is one of the best pranks I've ever seen. I WILL have a Roastburger today.

03.04.09 - I didn't get a Roastburger. Damn you, delicious homemade pizza bread! Episode 99 of A Wiggly World is available. I discovered a terrific website that contains all sorts of ROMs. Here is another reason to get rid of the bowl system in college football. I may get a Roastburger for lunch then shop for Bowl of Yum ingredients to throw in the slow cooker for supper. But for now, I think she's got the right idea.

03.03.09 - I ended up not using the coupon yesterday. I made fish sticks for lunch and spaghetti for supper instead. But I will use the coupon today. The 10th Wonder's "Exposed" live show was last night. Speaking of "Exposed", you can watch the entire episode here. I got a kick out of this. What? I will have a few fish sticks to hold me for awhile, then I'm going to get another free Roastburger.

03.02.09 - Happy 21st to a very good friend of mine. Episodes 97 and 98 of The 9th, Episode 166 of Daizenshuu EX, and Episode 188 of RBR are all now available. I will not stop using that coupon until it expires next week.

03.01.09 - I originally didn't think I had much for you, but I do. Episode 98a of A Wiggly World is available. I haven't listened to it yet, so I'm not sure what's different from Episode 98. Episode 77 of The 10th Wonder is up. It discusses Heroes S3E17, "Cold Wars". Episode 2 of LOL SPORTS! is available. Check that show out, it's hilarious. It's made for the internet-savvy sports fan. I'm going to have Thousand Island dressing with some fish sticks on the side.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: February 22-28, 2009

02.28.09 - I know, I'm a little late today. Episode 98 of A Wiggly World is available. Botchamania 69 is up. This is funny. This is gross. I have finished the cheesy beef taco bake. I'm going to munch on some coleslaw now.

02.27.09 - I took advantage of that awesome coupon for lunch yesterday. For dinner I made cheesy beef taco bake. I was surprised at how well that turned out. Into the Wild Green Yonder was a great possible ending to Futurama. I added a few more pictures to the Weekly Wrestling Picture Thread. Join the 2 Geeks 1 Podcast Facebook group. I'm having leftovers.

02.26.09 - I ended up having the cheesy chicken last night, and it was delicious. The new Futurama movie is out. Speaking of movies, Kayfabe: A Fake Real Movie About A Fake Real Sport has been released. It has good reviews, and I'm very anxious to see it. @jonathansmith68 referred me to a great coupon. Use it! I know I'll be using it later today and in the days to come.

02.25.09 - Along with playing Budokai 3 to continue my DBZ craze, I'm also now downloading "Bardock - The Father of Goku" and "The History of Trunks" in 720p. Wiggly's last episode of SWF, Episode 192, is now available for download. I decided to save the cheesy chicken for tonight. Instead, I went to Arby's last night and got a new Bacon Cheddar Roastburger. It might be my new favorite thing ever at any fast food place. Do yourself a favor and eat one as soon as possible.

02.24.09 - I enjoyed a nice turkey taco for breakfast this morning. I found my old copy of Dragon Ball Z Budokai 3 yesterday, so I'm going to have a lot of fun with that today. The post-"Cold Wars" live show is out from your friends at The 10th Wonder. Cheesy chicken later!

02.23.09 - I'm eating leftovers from last night's Papa Murphy's. Delicious. Episode 165 of Daizenshuu EX, Episode 96 of The 9th, and Episode 187 of RBR are all available. Unfortunately Mickey Rourke did not with the best actor award at the Oscars last night, but the show was still very good. I'm done with my pizza now, so I probably won't need to eat for some time. I'm stuffed.

02.22.09 - No bar crawl or burger last night. I ended up spending the majority of the day sleeping instead. I just finished The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Project64 with Djipi's Cel-Zelda Mod. It's still my favorite game ever, and the texture pack makes it a lot more visually appealing. Episode 76 of The 10th Wonder is available, as is Episode 1 of LOL SPORTS. I think we're going out to eat later today. I'll be sure to let you know what I order.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: February 15-21, 2009

02.21.09 - Happy Birthday to my little sister, who is 20 today. Interesting read here on "fauxback" baseball uniforms. I had a good time hanging out and drinking a beers at my buddy's last night. Hopefully a few of us can participate in this tonight. It turns out the "Create panoramic photo" feature in Windows Live Photo Gallery is pretty neat. I stitched this together yesterday. That's my backyard. I'm not sure what I'll eat today. A burger sounds tasty.

02.20.09 - Hi. Episode 95 of The 9th is now available. I think my turtle is enjoying the rearrangements I made in her tank. Nate Robinson recreated his Slam Dunk Contest-winning dunk on The Late Show last night by jumping over Biff. I am going to make sure I have some kind of Mexican food today.

02.19.09 - I went to the gas station hoping to buy myself a purple (Quiet Storm) Gatorade Tiger. I accidentally bought blue (True Force). Turns out blue is pretty good. Can you tell it's a slow news day? Skoal Berry Blend Long Cut is a refreshing change. Lunch meat sandwiches will be today's main food of choice. I'll go a little more in-depth later on Twitter.

02.18.09 - All of the pizza and spaghetti is no more. Episode 191 of Smart Wrestling Fan is out. The Iowa State football team has a new defensive coordinator. I'm drinking a Michelob Dunkel Weisse right now. It has a very strong aroma of bananas. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It does taste very light for a darker beer, and goes down smooth. I'm going with mashed potatoes and noodles today.

02.17.09 - I went with Bowl of Yum. The 10th Wonder had their live show last night after "Building 26" aired. Do you like to make fun of pro wrestling? Make sure to check out the new thread I started on the Fan Off Forums. If you've played World of Goo, you know the soundtrack is awesome. It's available here for free. I've got a ton of leftover pizza and spaghetti to chow down today.

02.16.09 - I'm proud to be able to say I got my tacos. New podcasts available: Episode 186 of RBR, Episode 164 of Daizenshuu EX, and Episode 94 of The 9th. WWE No Way Out was last night. It was surprisingly good. I figured it would only serve as filler until WrestleMania 25, but it was a very unpredictable and entertaining show. Now that I've finished Dragon Ball GT, I'm going back to watch these. I'm not sure if I'll go with Bowl of Yum or jambalaya today. I'll see where my stomach leads me and let you know.

02.15.09 - Hello. I'm up and atom today, probably because I never went to sleep. There's a great blog entry on Uni Watch today about shoes being worn in tonight's NBA All-Star game. Episode 75 of The 10th Wonder is up for download. I will be very upset if I do not eat tacos at some point today.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: February 8-14, 2009

02.14.09 - Happy Valentine's Day, if that's your thing. Last night I spent too long playing Dragon Ball GT: Transformation for Game Boy Advance. The gameplay was too simple and the story was somewhat inaccurate, but I can't stop playing a beat-'em-up game until I've finished it. For some reason I'm really craving fast food later on today. Make sure to vote on the Question of the Week before time runs out in a few hours!

02.13.09 - Sorry for the super late entry, but I've been busy with things. You may have noticed older entries aren't here. They're now here. Credit goes to @Kferd for the idea. Now you can visit my blog to read archived entries, and when you come to mdunner28.com, it should load a little faster. I enjoyed a delicious Chicken and Bacon Ranch sub from Subway earlier, complete with The Works, banana peppers, and southwest sauce. Yummy.

02.12.09 - Paul Lukas of Uni Watch has written a very interesting article on ESPN regarding sports fan and uniform design submissions. Speaking of Uni Watch, right now there's a good debate going on over what color mustard is. Last night I enjoyed the combination of Taco Bell AND Wendy's. Today is cheese dogs with two different types of, yes, mustard.

02.11.09 - Here again with the late update. SWF Episode 190 is available. Sadly, Wiggly will be leaving the show. Join this Facebook group to let him know how much you've appreciated his work! And if you want more Wiggly, check out his other projects. There's not too much non-Wiggly news besides the bizarre fact that I'm not very hungry.

02.10.09 - Sorry for the late update today. I was busy with this. @heroespodcast had a live show last night. RBR Episode 185 is out. Leftover pizza and spaghetti will be my dinner.

02.09.09 - I was in Ames for the majority of the weekend, so I didn't get a chance to be here yesterday. The people down at ISU were all very friendly. A few strangers even bought me drinks! I'll have to go back soon for sure.

02.08.09 - Sorry for the no-show.

01.03.09 - Utah, in my opinion, definitely deserves some votes from the coaches and AP to be the No. 1 team in the FBS. You can't argue with an undefeated season, and they completely manhandled an extremely talented Alabama team. I did some work on a high school football photo of mine and came up with this. Here is a very eye-opening read on steroid use in professional wrestling, reported by the Chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, Henry Waxman. I added Windows Live and Blog buttons to the right menu. The hot wings are gone. On to the chicken patties and personal pizzas!

01.02.09 - Waking up to the smell of almost-finished cooking pot roast is a great thing. I spent 12 straight hours watching football yesterday. I don't think there are quite so many games on today, so I'll have to find something else to do. I suppose I could catch up on some wrasslin'. There is a ton of food that needs to be eaten, as well. The lil' smokies are gone, but the hot wings are all still waiting for me.

01.01.09 - Happy New Year, and good riddance to you, 2008. You might disagree, but this past year sucked. It just did. And just because it's 2009 does not mean things are suddenly going to go your way. A four-digit number doesn't mean shit, and too many people look forward to this tangible that they associate with change to set an unrealistic goal for their future, only to fail miserably. A number won't change shit. People who really want to change will. End rant. In other news, I've got a bunch of douche bags for "friends". Also, there's a new episode of The 9th. Listen to it. We got a ton of good food like hot wings, chicken patties, and lil' smokies, so I'm going to go stuff myself. I'm going to sleep and sober up first, though.

12.31.08 - Ah, the last day of the year. I still am not completely sure what's going on tonight. Hopefully things will clear up as the day goes on. I watched The Wrestler last night. I thought it was a great movie, but I guess my expectations of a feel-good story were way off. I think I'm addicted to fish sticks. There's a new Smart Wrestling Fan episode out where Wiggly and Joe present their annual SWFy Awards. Have fun tonight.

12.30.08 - My arms hurt more today than yesterday. How does that happen? Today's lunch was fish sticks and tartar sauce mixed with Tabasco sauce. I added a neat little AddThis button below the hit counter, so now it's easier for you to share this great place with your friends. I can't believe the Broncos fired Mike Shanahan. I've got to figure out some plans for tomorrow night. So should you.

12.29.08 - My arms are aching after lifting weights for the first time in months. Because of this I am less motivated to type. RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk's Episode 179 is available. I'm going to go watch football and eat leftover pizza.

12.28.08 - I've been very busy today. I went to the mall to exchange gifts, then my mom got stuck in the snow, so I had to push her out. The Packers beat the Lions to give the Lions a final record of 0-16. I would have rooted for the Lions if they were facing any other team. I feel kind of bad now. Just had a Cowboy Pizza from Papa Murphy's, and I topped it with various hot sauces that I received for Xmas. I beat World of Goo in one giant sitting. Buy it (or find another way to play). It's that good.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: December 21-27, 2008

12.27.08 - I feel very rested. Yesterday's diet was made up almost entirely of chocolate and hot-flavored Slim Jims. What an odd yet satisfying combination. I edited this picture for a friend. I think it will make a great poster. I also did some experimenting with this Xmas Eve picture of my family. I downloaded and played the World of Goo demo. I was a bit confused at first, but soon got the hang of things and had a lot of fun. If you have Steam, there's a huge game sale going on right now, so make sure you check that out!

12.26.08 - First off, I hope everyone had a great Xmas! I got some computer stuff that has really improved my system. Two more gigs of RAM to put me at four. It makes such a huge difference. I also got an 8600 GT video card that's a slight downgrade from my old 8800 GTS as far as specs go, but it's smaller in size, which will help with airflow. Plus it has a working fan, the sole problem of my old video card. I no longer have to keep a giant fan on my PC at all times to keep it from overheating and shutting down. It's much more quiet and spacious in my room now because of this. I also got clothes, which aren't something I really want to elaborate on. These three DVDs were also presents of mine: I Am Legend, Robots, and Iron Man. Iron Man is the only film I saw of the three, and I am looking forward to watching all of them in the coming days. Tweet me your favorite Xmas present this year and I'll post it. Oh yeah, I got a palette of hot sauces that I can't wait to try out!

12.25.08 - Merry Xmas to all those that celebrate it, and Happy Holidays to all! Orange Cream soda, made by Goose Island Beer Co. is delicious. I later tried Boulevard Brewing Co.'s Unfiltered Wheat Beer, and what a great surprise that was. I highly recommend both of these beverages. I can't wait to open presents later!

12.24.08 - Merry Xmas Eve! Things are a little purple today. I finally got around to watching Raw, and it was actually a really good show. Episode 183 of Smart Wrestling Fan is now available. Today should be a relaxing day full of football watching and chicken cordon bleu. @joehummrich said he likes Green River soda. I've never heard of it and have no idea where to find it. I'll start looking around. @hollaholla09 likes Mountain Dew. I've heard of that one. It snowed four more inches today. Shoveling was not fun, as snow was blowing all over the place. I still have some present wrapping to do before tomorrow morning. I'm drinking Orange Cream soda, made by Goose Island. I've never heard of it before (I've obviously heard of the flavor, just not the brand), but it sure jumped into my top ten list of favorite sodas in a hurry. I'm really anxious to find and try Green River.

12.23.08 - I am finally done with Xmas shopping! It's quite a relief. No real news to report today. I'll extend that Twitter activity longer. Let me know your favorite soft drink!

12.22.08 - I'm really going to do my Xmas shopping today. In a few hours, a few of the guys and I are getting our shopping done late, but not last minute. I uploaded a new video on YouTube. I've got an idea to help keep things on this site fun: Let me know what your favorite soft drink is via Twitter, and I'll tally up the votes. I will then purchase the most-liked soft drink and go from there. Maybe I'll make it the site's background. Maybe I'll write a lengthy and descriptive review of it. I can't tell you yet, because I really have no idea. Hopefully this will work out, and we can continue to do these kinds of things. So start tweeting!

12.21.08 - As I'm writing this, it is negative eight degrees outside. We have ab0ut a foot of snow as well as a blizzard warning. I will cure being chilly with chili. I'm looking forward to watching some good NFL matchups today, like Steelers vs. Titans and Panthers vs. Giants. Episode 178 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk is now available for download. The sixth annual Tribute to the Troops show was last night. It was somewhat lackluster wrestling-wise, but it was a very classy production by the WWE. If you get the chance, go see this movie. I haven't seen it yet, but I can't wait to. I've heard nothing but good things. Some are saying that it's the best movie of 2008. No more wrestling (or anything else) to talk about as of now.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: December 14-20, 2008

12.20.08 - It's snowing again! I swear, the next time I see this weather I'm going to punch it in the face. Chunky soup is helping me to get over it, though. The college football bowl games start today. I'll probably spend a good amount of time watching those. Last night I watched almost all of Volume 3 of Heroes. I think I'll finish it today. I also have a weird urge to go sledding.

12.19.08 - It's going to be a very inside day. Overnight our area received from nine inches to a foot of snow. Needless to say, today's shoveling was the worst of this past three-day shoveling adventure. About an hour and a change of clothes later, I'm all warmed up and ready for a day of watching TV shows on my PC. Oh, and food. Lots of food.

12.18.08 - It's so cold! I had to shovel the leftover snow, which ended up taking longer than the first attempt. Apparently we're supposed to get another snowstorm tonight. Boo. Greg Grunberg, who plays Matt Parkman on Heroes, will be on a live interview with The 9th later tonight. There are no new episodes of The Office or 30 Rock tonight, so I may have to resort to watching TNA Impact. Not sure what I'm having for dinner. I can't decide between chicken patties or chicken alfredo. I think today is the most visitors I've had since creating this site. That's most likely due to the Facebook link I posted on my profile. I'm now over 100 hits though! Exciting!

12.17.08 - Man, it's crappy out. I just got done shoveling the driveway. If I were ten years younger I'd be having a blast right now. A new Smart Wrestling Fan is now available. The last two episodes of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk have now also been released, finally. I've decided to change the background and hyperlink color either every time I update the site or whenever I feel like it. The background will always be something captured by me. I figure it's more creative and ensures all content is owned by me. I'm going to go get warmed up and have some egg nog.

12.16.08 - The layout of the site has changed to make better use of space. It seemed nearly pointless to use two columns to list a few buttons on each. There's now obviously just one column to the right that displays the links to sites I'm a part of or frequently visit. 'Dual' was phenomenal. I've got some Xmas shopping to do today. If you haven't already, join Twitter. It's one of the coolest web services I've come across. I used my excellent coupon last night at Burger King to get a free Steakhouse Burger with a value meal purchase. I ended up getting fries too, so I pretty much got a second free meal, which I will be eating shortly. Time to go do things.

12.15.08 - I ended up staying up all night. Being extremely bored, I decided to improve the look of the site. I think it turned out nicely, but I want to hear what you think. Let me know via Twitter! I watched WWE Armageddon last night, and it really was a great pay-per-view overall, minus one hilariously bad segment. There were quite a few good matches along with a great surprise ending. The Heroes Volume 3 finale is tonight, and you'd better watch it. I just might have to take advantage of a great coupon and go to Burger King later on. I'm out for now. See ya!

12.14.08 - I'm recovering from last night, so I'm going to keep things short today. The new 10th Wonder is out. It is Sunday, so football is on. I'm going to go watch it. Goodbye.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: December 7-13, 2008

12.13.08 - So it's been quite the day. I went to the UNI vs. Richmond FCS Semi-final Game, and sadly the Panthers went down 21-20. I was really bummed from that, but now I'm full on pepperoni pizza and plan on attending a party at a friend's house. I haven't seen my friends in awhile, so it'll be nice to have a few brewskies and get caught up on things. A new 10th Wonder podcast is expected tonight. I'm out.

12.12.08 - I'm going to do this post a few minutes early from its correct corresponding date. I might not be around tomorrow today, so I want to get it taken care of. I cannot get this video out of my head. It's just too great. 30 Rock was awesome as expected. That show never lets me down. I still haven't watched my new DVD, but I'm hoping to before the day is done. Updates are now Daily Blurbs. I've had chips and salsa, fish sticks, and milk all day. Now I think I'm going to throw some Skoal Apple Long Cut in, then I'm going to watch funny things on a screen in front of me.

12.11.08 - Yum. I just devoured a sour cream chicken enchilada dinner. In case you haven't noticed, I love food. I'm excited for a new episode of 30 Rock tonight. Later, I might watch my Cult of Cartman DVD that two of my good friends got me for a late birthday/early Xmas present. It's nice to see I've reach over 50 visitors in a little over a week. It's exciting, and it proves I'm not doing this for nothing. Thank you to everyone that keeps coming back!

12.10.08 - I'm happy to see I've had almost 50 visitors in the one week this site has been running. That's great! Smart Wrestling Fan Episode 181 is now available. I had fish sticks earlier. They were solid, but they've got nothing on the creamy cheesy chicken alfredo I'm having later tonight.

12.09.08 - So I've been messing around on Twitter a lot lately. I've slowly become more active, and now it's one of those everyday things I use frequently. Having Vista I decided my sidebar could use a useful Twitter gadget. I ended up finding two gadgets, Twadget and chirpr. While Twadget was more aesthetically appealing, I found chirpr to be superior as far as functionality goes. chirpr has the ability to scroll down and choose from three gadget sizes, something Twadget unfortunately lacks. If you've got Vista and use Twitter, I highly recommend either of these gadgets. Oh, yeah, TNA Final Resolution was poop, and 'Our Father' was one of the best Heroes episodes ever.

12.08.08 - Hey, guys. I changed the font of my header logo thing because, well, I just wasn't feeling the old one. The favicon has changed with it. I'm psyched for jumbalaya tonight. I've also got to hurry up and watch the TNA pay-per-view before the new episode of Heroes starts. This should be a good night.

12.07.08 - I completely overhauled the look of the site. Things were a little too colorful for me. I hope you enjoy the new look here.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: December 3-6, 2008

12.06.08 - I removed the URL masking for the site in order to allow my favicon to appear. I assume anyone who visits the site knows it by the short address, rather than the address you see above in your navigation toolbar. Now the site can be a little more pleasing to the eyes. There's a good discussion going on Uni Watch regarding the special uniforms in the Army-Navy football game today. Time to put some bratwursts in my belly.

12.05.08 - I added a nifty hit counter to the site. I found this very interesting. A new A Wiggly World was released today. It's a great podcast on religion and other aspects of life, and I highly recommend to everyone. What are beliefs if you never have to question them?

12.04.08 - I've been very busy on Starkville Forums doing a lot of graphic-related things. If you watch the TV show Heroes, you should really check Starkville Forums out to discuss the show. There's a new SWF podcast out, which is always good stuff. I also put a new picture up on MySpace. Let me know what you think of the look of the site. I can't decide whether I like it or not.

12.03.08 - Hello, and welcome to mdunner28.com. I created this tiny site to make it a little easier to contact me and to see what I like to spend my time doing. It's basically a collection of pretty hyperlinks that will take you to places I enjoy. Nothing too fancy. I may or may not post here regularly with stuff and things about life. Hopefully this will prove beneficial to someone. Don't forget to bookmark this site.

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: February 1-7, 2009

02.07.09 - Chapter 74 of The 10th Wonder Podcast is available. Hooray! I'll probably listen to it in the car as I'm heading down to Ames later today for my friend's birthday. I may look into keeping a permanent background on this site. It makes the updates take much longer than they really should take. Maybe I'll switch it up every week or something. Feel free to give me your thoughts on this in my new Question of the Week.

02.06.09 - I'm all over Twitter this morning. I had Bowl of Yum last night, but cooked it on the stove rather than in the microwave, so it turned out much better than usual. Next time I'm going to cook it in the slow cooker. A new episode of The 9th is out. After failing at converting OGM files to AVI files, I updated my codec pack and tinkered with a few settings to be able to play the OGM files in Windows Media Center. Bowl of Yum leftovers later.

02.05.09 - What's up? Here are this year's college football recruiting class rankings. As I reported last night, I uploaded a new video to YouTube. Cute. Today's food mention will be announced via Twitter.

02.04.09 - I am officially caught up on wrestling. I just listened to Episode 189 of Smart Wrestling Fan, so you should, too. Check out my Knights of the Old Republic group on Facebook. Today I discovered a great Madden mod site called Football-Freaks.com. Fish sticks and Burger King's buffalo sauce together are an amazingly tasty combination. I'm almost done with Dragon Ball Z, so I'll get back to that.

02.03.09 - Heroes was phenomenal last night. You can catch a replay of The 10th Wonder's live reactions show here. I'm almost caught up on all of my wrestling shows. I just have to listen to Episode 184 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk and watch last night's Raw. Time for four meat Tombstone pizza (with hot sauce of course)!

02.02.09 - Last night's Super Bowl was a good time with a ton of food. The Cardinals couldn't pull out the victory, but I got to eat (ahem): all-meat pizza, clam chowder, seven-layer salad, potato salad, barbeque ribs, buffalo wings, fried chicken, chips and salsa, and turkey and ham sandwiches. I also got to drink some good beers: Samuel Adams Blackberry Witbier, Samuel Adams Irish Red, and Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat Beer. I didn't get to drink my one remaining Magnum from the other night, though. I am stoked for the new Heroes tonight! Make sure you watch it!

02.01.09 - I had an awesome time last night celebrating my buddy's 21st birthday. I haven't had that much fun in a long time, and it's very rejuvenating. Because of the Super Bowl, today will be one of the greatest food days in recent memory, filled with jambalaya, hot wings, and pizza. Go Cardinals!

MDUNNER28.COM Week in Review: January 25-31, 2009

01.31.09 - Phil Hecken of Uni Watch came up with a great breakdown of the past Super Bowl uniforms. I just took one of my cats to the vet earlier. Boy, that was interesting. Time for some clearance shopping at Office Depot. Beer later.

01.30.09 - I completely remade this entire site. You'll only see minor visual differences, but the code is completely different. I really need to catch up on some of my podcasts and wrestling shows. I've been watching so much DBZ that I've completely forgotten about them. The Detroit Lions may get new uniforms in 2010. Apparently Mickey Rourke isn't wrestling Chris Jericho at WrestleMania 25 now. I hope he changes his mind again. Yesterday's workout went quite nicely. I think I'll do it again today. Then I'll eat spaghetti.

01.29.09 - Howdy. The fine folks at The 10th Wonder have compiled some great behind-the-scenes footage of a Heroes Super Bowl promo. I'm getting pretty excited for the Super Bowl, what I'll eat during the Super Bowl, and the return of Heroes. This volume, 'Fugitives', is supposed to be pretty amazing. I've stumbled upon a neat site that translates the Japanese fan-manga Dragon Ball AF. It's really nerdy, I know. I may actually work out today, but after that it's time for FOOD.

01.28.09 - Here is some great news for Ring of Honor fans. I got a big kick out of this wrestling/video game-related news. Smart Wrestling Fan Episode 188 is available. The two people that voted in this week's Question of the Week agreed that the Arizona Cardinals will win the Super Bowl. I think I'm a Vanilla Coke addict.

01.27.09 - 3conomics saved the day for me. Such a great bang for your buck. I watched the 2009 Royal Rumble yesterday and thought it was very solid. It got very congested towards the end, but for most of the match there were a lot of little storylines weaving together. There were also a ton of near-eliminations, most notably by Mr. CM Punk. Man, he looked like freakin' James Bond out there. So Randy Orton won. A predictable outcome, but a very strong one. I'm looking forward to seeing who he'll face at WrestleMania 25. Sorry, non-wrestling fans.

01.26.09 - Matt here. Part 2 of The 10th Wonder's interview with David H. Lawrence XVII is now available. Episode 183 of RBR: Weekly Wrestling talk is, as well. See that Guestbook button on the right? Go there and follow its directions. Fish sticks + Thousand Island dressing = YUM.

01.25.09 - I'm back. My throat's still sore and my head still aches, but I'm back. It felt so odd being away from my computer the past few days. I've posted a new Week in Review blog entry. Episode 96 of A Wiggly World has been released. Part I of The 10th Wonder's interview with David H. Lawrence XVII is also available. I haven't listened to either yet, but I'll be sure to do so before the day is over. Being sick has given me a chance to watch a ton of DBZ. It's really starting to get good; I'm nearing the end of the Cell Saga. Domino's Pizza for lunch!
