 I began my NINJA ASSASSIN training at a very young age. By the time I was 7 Years old I could kill a man using nothing but a small spoon and my high pitch voice, an ability I would loose once my balls dropped. But the training... The trauma of all those people I killed... These things will stay with me forever!!!

DEAD or ALIVE will always be one of my favorite games of all time. When I was a teenager I would obsess over every interview that Tomonobu Itagaki did. I wanted to understand everything about how TEAM Ninja did what they did. And even NOW 25 years later with over a decade and a half of game development experience under my belt, I am still amazed by their work!  It is said that Tomonobu Itagaki chose to make KASUMI'S outfit Blue and White with Red hair as a way of showing love to the WEST - To bring the Japanese culture and the American culture closer together... I don't know how true this is, but I like the sentiment... I like the idea of bringing people together...

  That's Life Frank Sinatra That's life (that's life)  That's what all the people say  You're riding high in April, shot down in May  But I know I'm gonna change that tune  When I'm back on top, back on top in June I said that's life (that's life)  And as funny as it may seem  Some people get their kicks  Stomping on a dream  But I don't let it, let it get me down  'Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet  A pawn and a king  I've been up and down and over and out  And I know one thing  Each time I find myself  Flat on my face  I pick myself up and get  Back in the race That's life (that's life)  I tell you, I can't deny it  I thought of quitting, baby  But my heart just ain't gonna buy it  And if I didn't think it was worth one single try  I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pira...

 Just finished watching the TOMB RAIDER movie and I really liked it. While I prefer the old OG Lara Croft in games, where she's this sorta female James Bond who is always a badass with a cheeky sense of humor, I think this new Lara worked really well on the silver screen and could/should continue to make more movies.  In many ways it felt like the new Indiana Jones...

 I am working on a few different things right now. Gaming, Education, learning new Engines like THE UNREAL ENGINE!! It's an exciting time to learn new things with help of A.I. - I think in 10 years from now A.I. could be much more common... and maybe more helpful ?  You can't stop the EVOLUTION of Technology!
