Gaming - Final Fantasy Legend for the Game Boy

Strategy and Tactics Series 

Gaming - Strategy And Tactics Games For Game Boy

Other - Captcha words on Squidoo

One of the few things I've noticed about Squidoo is that some of the captchas are weird. (So are the random passwords). So why not list them and their meanings? I've made a list of a few fun captchas I had over a day and what they mean to me.

People - Rob Bartlett

Rob Bartlett is a comedian on the radio and TV show "Imus in the morning" since the late 1980's. Many of his characters are celebrities that he makes fun of, as well as song parodies. He's also a lover of the arts and has been on Broadway, TV shows,...

Game Lyrics - Final Fantasy X's Otherworld

Final Fantasy X was graced by the presence of a metal song as an introduction to the game. This was a first. However there has been a lot of mystery as to whether the song was performed by Bill Muir, or Rammstein. I say Bill Muir.

Instant Star Lyrics

Instant Star Lyrics - Anyone But You

Anyone but you is about the Juderman couple : Jude Harrison & Vincent Spiederman from Instant Star. In the show the phrase "anyone but you" is sung by Tyler Kyte (Spiederman). However in the album, everything is sung by Alexz. Also in the show ther...

Instant Star Lyrics - Criminal

If you've watched Season 1 of Instant Star and don't remember Criminal there's a good reason - it wasn't put in. Supposedly it was meant for the episode "Won't get fooled again", but instead Skin was put in. I'm sure the decision was hard to make as...

Instant Star Lyrics - 24 Hours

24 Hours is the first song of the soundtrack for Instant Star (season 1). It is also the song of the first episode "Even better than the real thing". According to the show the song was originally with lyrics about Jude (Alexz Johnson) and her best f...

Instant Star Lyrics - Another Thin Line

Season two of Instant Star sure has a lot of wonderful songs and here's yet another one. Alexz Johnson just rocks. It was featured in the last episode of Season 2 ("Date with the night")

Instant Star Lyrics - How Strong Do You Think I Am?

So what if her mother is driving her up a wall? Our beloved rock star knows the best way to vent - through music. This season 2 classic (episode 24: Mother's Little Helper) is another Alexz Johnson classic. It's even going to be in the Greatest Hits...

Instant Star Lyrics - I'm in love with my guitar

Just as most songs of Instant star are somehow related to the episodes they're featured in, I'm in Love With My Guitar is no different. The song is about connecting with yourself and what you love to do (the guitar), even if other people are against...

Instant Star Lyrics - Waste My Time

Waste my time is a song featured both in Instant star season 1 and 3. However who is singing it does change. Originally the song is about Jude Harrison (played by Alexz Johnson) falling for Shay Mills (played by Matthew Brown), who also happens to l...

Instant Star Lyrics - There's Us

The song first appears in the episode Date With the Night (Season 2), when Tommy disappears thus leading Jude to a sort of breakdown. Both Jude & Patsy sing the song. The song was released for the season 2 soundtrack (featuring only Alexz) and will...

Instant Star Lyrics - Let Me Fall

Alexz Johnson has a very soulful voice, which is perfect for this song. It was the song for the 2nd episode ("Come as you are") of the show Instant Star, and probably the song that hooked me to the show. It was released for season 1's soundtrack but...

Instant Star Lyrics - I don't know if I should stay

After all, it's one of the few songs from Instant Star 3's soundtrack that still had Alexz singing. The song is also featured in Instant Star Greatest Hits.

Instant Star Lyrics (cont..2) 

Instant Star Lyrics - Me Out of Me

As great as this song is , it actually has little to do with its episode. However that doesn't reduce its significance. It's about staying who you are even when the forces of evi...I mean the rest of the world expects you to change. Who doesn't love...

Instant Star Lyrics - Love to Burn

We all know this song from Instant Star 3 just plain rocks. It's a beautiful song. I went and gathered all of the videos related to it, so they can be right here in one place. How nice of me. You have Alexz's original TV version, Tim Rozon (Tommy Q...

Instant Star Lyrics - Natural Disaster

This song is about Tommy's instability. For a guy who claims to want Sadie, he sure knows how to mess up, but then again she's so insecure and sees wrongs that don't exist...

Instant Star Lyrics - Liar Liar

Tommy, Jude. These two never stop doing the dance, do they? Another great song for you Jommy fans. Hey, I'm sure Jude will come over her insecurities and stop assuming Tommy lies. Liar liar is a single but good luck finding it.It will also be remixe...

Instant Star Lyrics - Over Rated

Overrated is a great song, I personally like to karaoke to it a lot. It's about not giving in to what others want or like because deep down you know it's not really you. The song was covered by the Canadian finalist Suzy Rawn.

Instant Star Lenses (cont..3) 

Instant Star Lyrics - Stupid Girl

While nearly all Instant Star songs were made for the show, Stupid Girl is one of the very few that were covers. It was created by Garbage but let's face it, Alexz Johnson can make any song her own. Strangely it is in the first season's soundtrack, b...

Instant Star Lyrics - Shooting Star

This particular song is performed by the character of Patsy Sewer in Instant Star. In the show there are various instrumentation of the song, with saxophones even, but the official version only has it Patsy Style. Patsy is played by Zoie Palmer, but...

Instant Star Lyrics - Skin

No really it does! It is my absolute favorite song from the show Instant Star, performed by the character Jude Harrison (Alexz Johnson). What is the song about? Liars. It's about all of the white lies the men in Jude's life told that ended up breaki...

Instant Star Lyrics - Temporary Insanity

Temporary Insanity is one of the various songs for the Canadian Show Instant Star. It is the last song featured in the first season's episodes (it's in "Should I stay or should I go") but the 2nd song in the soundtrack. This particular song is of co...

Instant Star Lyrics - That Girl

I'm sure all of your Instant Star fans aren't surprised to see a song about Jude's love for Tommy. So what if she's possessive? It's love and he knows deep down she's "that girl".

Instant Star Lyrics - Your Eyes

This is the featured song of the 7th episode of Instant Star (title above). Unlike most love songs in Instant Star, this one is actually about Jude Harrison (Alexz Johnson) & Shay Mills (Matthew Brown), not about Jude X Tommy Q (Tim Rozon). Though, a...

Instant Star Lyrics - Time to Be Your 21

When you're too young for your perfect guy, you can't help but wish you were just old enough. This song from the 8th episode, Unsweet Sixteen, reflects Jude's & Tommy's burning attraction through the chains of time. Cheer up Jude, eventually you'll b...
