A while back I posted a video of Andrea Vardrucci A.K.A. Vadrum beating the skins alongside the Super Mario Bros. theme song. This time I’m posting his performance alongside the lesser played Super Mario Bros. 2. This is my personal favorite Vadrum video and I also feel it’s his most impressive.
Review: Vojo Extreme Citrus Energy Mints
Overview:
Energy drinks can make your breath smell really bad. Especially the energy coffees. So when you’ve just downed that can of Java Monster and you have that atrocious coffee breath, you’re gonna want some mints. But you don’t want just any old mints, no. You want mints that’ll fill your veins with even more caffeine!
Now if that’s the case the there are plenty of delicious options out there. Anything with the word Jolt on it is usually pretty good, BAWLS mints are decent, Ice Breakers Energy are the best I’ve had, and so on. Vojo Extreme Energy Mints are not one of those delicious options I just mentioned. In fact, these are a prime example of the kind of caffeinated candies you want to stay away from.

Review: Shockwave Energy
Last week I wrote a review of the Speedway exclusive energy drink, Shockwave Mango Energy Juice. Today I’m back with a review of of the original flavor, Shockwave Energy.
While I was impressed with the overall taste and quality of the Mango blend, I noted significant lack of kick and originality as being major factors to work against the otherwise impressive beverage. Does the original flavor get right all the things its off-spin missed?
Zombie College ep. 1
Once again I was late night browsing the internet, not because I was bored but because I had a lot on my mind. I noticed that Zac published his Left 4 Dead review and I decided to search Zombie into YouTube. This short cartoon series came up and I thought you all might enjoy them.
I introduce Zombie College!
Review: Left 4 Dead (Xbox 360)

Overview:
System: Xbox 360 (also on: PC)
Developer: Valve/Certain Affinity
Publisher: Valve/EA
Genre: FPS/Survival Horror
If you’ll think back (or link back if you can’t remember) you might recall a couple of zombie movies I reviewed. The first was a film consisting of fast paced zombie action with lots of blood, gore, and huge portions of pure, unadulterated awesome. This film was called Dawn of the Dead. The second flick featured slow, stupid zombies that couldn’t scare a retarded blind cheerleader. This movie was called Land of the Dead. Thankfully, like the former listed, Left 4 Dead ditches the old myth that zombies are bumbling morons and replaces it with the more recent idea that zombies are lightning fast and extremely deadly. I love zombies.

Review: Batman: The Killing Joke
Special thanks to World 1-1′s Kyle for sending in this review. It’s his second guest review, his first was for Batman: Year One. The opinions expressed in this review and the work itself belong to Kyle Hogg.
Overview:
Writer: Alan Moore
Artist: Brian Bolland
Publisher: DC Comics
Alan Moore is known as one of the best comic book writers in the world. He’s written critically acclaimed greats like V for Vendetta, From Hell, and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Not to mention he was also behind the single greatest comic in all of history: Watchmen. He also wrote a smaller, one-shot Batman title, The Killing Joke, which was a Joker centric title. But how good of a read is it really? And how does the artwork look in this day and age?
Review: Dear Science by TV On The Radio
Two years ago, TV On The Radio was on the verge of becoming one of my favorite bands. Then came the night of March 8, 2007. I purchased a ticket to see them perform at The Vogue Theater in Indianapolis (aka: the Sodom and Gomorra of the Midwest). The Vogue is a 21+ venue, which shouldn’t have been a problem because I was 22 at the time. However, my driver’s license had expired, making me ineligible to get in, even though I had documented proof I was old enough to enter the putrid venue. So the evening ended with my “friends” watching the show while leaving me to sit alone in the car for over three hours.
Since then, I had been reluctant to listen to this band. While it was in no way their fault (in fact, I met two band members while waiting for my “friends” to exit) listening to them just brought back memories of that cruddy night. This reason, mixed with my non-existent cash flow, made me reluctant to purchase their new album “Dear Science.” After several months, I finally bit the bullet and bought it. After a few listens, I can officially say that all is forgiven.
Superbowl Commercials
Wondering what this year’s Superbowl commercials are going to be like? Well, you can get a preview of a decent chunk of them over at adweek.com. After looking through them myself, I can only imagine what new commercials haven’t been released publicly yet. I realize this is only a few days early, but it’s still kind of cool. You could make a bet with someone on what some of the commercials will be and score a few bucks.

The Results are in for Poll #1!
The results for our first poll are in! Since this was our first poll we simply used it to get a rough idea of how often our readers visit the site.
The question was:
“How often do you visit Everyview”
And here are the results:
- “Daily, or close to it” – 42% (21 votes)
- “About once or twice a week” – 26% (13 votes)
- “Every once in a while” – 16% (8 votes)
- “It’s my first time!” – 16% (8 votes)
- Total votes – 50
I closed it off at 50 votes because I thought that was plenty to get a feel for who my reader base is. Most people who voted visit near daily or at least once or twice a week. A smaller percentage of people only come every once in a while or have just found the site for their first time ever. Sure hope they come back!
A new poll will be up soon enough, but until then keep reading Everyview!
