While Iraqi journalist Muntadar al-Zaidi missed both his tosses at our oh so giggly Prez you can make your mark where he barely missed. This is all in part to PopJam who decided to make this lovely game after Pres. Bush's unfortunate press room malfunction. You can play the game and try to hit George the stutterer as much as you'd like.

Here's your chance! Using this amazing device from rumandmonkey.com I decided to let you all get in on the Emo Band Name Generator. Post your Emo Band Name here and lets see who has the most Emo Band in JPP history. Can you beat mine? It is Some Kind of Naughty Application. Beat that yo.

After quite awhile, downloads have returned to JustPressPlay.

We are currently hosting game trainers, wall papers, and movie scripts.  There are over 20 trainers currently, 5 movie scripts and 3 big wall paper packs.  There is more being added daily so be sure to check back often to see if that file you've been waiting for has appeared.

If you think we should host something else, we'd love to hear from you.  Feel free to post in our forums, or use our contact page.

Have fun!

Last week, I posted my review for the new Kottonmouth Kings album, The Green Album. It was not a good album and I expressed my distaste in my criticism. I assumed that would have been the end of it. After all, it was something like my thirtieth (guess-timation) review for the site, and I had thus far only received one comment on all of them. The comment by “adam” for Secret Machines disagreed with my analysis, but he offered his own opinion in a civil manner (and even called my writing “eloquent”). I respected his own observations, saw why he liked it more than I, and replied to his differing view politely. And that was it.

But with The Green Album, I have apparently struck a nerve with some people (I assume that they’re all fans). Not only did the review get commented upon, but the posts kept pouring in. At the time of writing this, there have been six angry responses and a handful of defenses and/or stunned reactions from the JustPressPlay staff.

Downloads were always popular on the previous versions of JPP.  We eventually had to do away with them due to server restrictions.

Well, now they're back and soon to be better than ever!

There will be no more having to register for the site (although we'd love if you did that anyway!).  Just a couple of clicks and presto!  Your download begins.

There are only a few files right now as we get everything sorted out.  Before long you can expect that long list of files we once had.

If you didn't already know, going into Starbucks today and saying "I Voted Today" garners you a free coffee. Yet another way Starbucks is hoping to better the world. Nevermind that they're giving away coffee in paper cups that will be thrown away and not recycled without any profit going towards reforestation...

But I digress. When I learnt this piece of "Free Coffee" info a few days back I decided to follow in the footsteps of my hero Phillip J. Fry and attempt the 100 Coffee Day as seen in an episode of Futurama about a $300 tax rebate. But anyways - I spent today leaving the office unannounced and walking to the myriad of Starbucks nearby.

Thus began...

Coffee Quest I

The Exotic Erotic Ball and Expo had its 29th annual show over the weekend. For the first time, the shindig was moved from San Francisco’s Cow Palace arena to the more spacious but understandably more suspect venue on Treasure Island, the former Naval base just off the city’s coast. The move didn’t seem to work out as well as hoped, with this year’s attendees complaining about bad transportation, lack of organization and underwhelming performers.

The Economic Status of Malaysia

For three years I spent time in and around the oh-so lovely island-splattered area of Malaysia. On top of sexy natives, (less sexy) turtles and more poisonous wildlife then I'd care to go outside to experience - they have an economy. Now I'm no economist. I'm not. Though I said I was once and may again in the future if it's ever a matter of national emergency (an American National Emergency - not Malaysian, as that entails little more than heavy turtle populations in tidal pools). But as a non-economist and someone who still insists to the IRS that he's never earned more than $0.30 an hour, I feel quite qualified to comment on the entire economy of Malaysia.

Why?

Because it consists entirely of a guy selling snorkels out of a shack made from driftwood. Sure they may have a thriving piracy industry going on the side, but my attempts at getting statistics on that aspect of "business" found me with a machete sticking out of my left thigh. So I digressed.

I'm not one to make a big deal over Nielsen ratings. For one, they're horribly unprepared to gauge today's current viewing trends (i.e. Hulu, piracy downloads, etc.) Secondly, they haven't even found a way to accurately account for DVR. Nielsen - you're a dried up hag of a woman in a sleek digital beauty pageant. So when they report that House - my current network sweetheart program - swept it's competition away with last night's episode, I hardly blink an eye.

And yet it's refreshing to hear that a show not based on solving crime (though if you replace "crime" with "medical mystery"...there's not much difference in format between a CSI and House) has a place in the upper echelons of current TV programming. If you're not burnt out on crime dramas yet - what the hell is wrong with you? You must be infinitely patient. Or maybe you have a memory disorder which lets you forget all previous pieces of crimesolving programming you've ever seen the second CSI's opening jingle begins. I mean hell, the writing isn't even that great. It especially sucks for CSI: Miami. Don't get me started.
