Apologies to everyone at AMD and upcoming local wrasslin' events!

So my last post I said that my processor took a dump and that is why I haven't been the net hero, lately. I was actually dead wrong. The motherboard got fried from an electrical brown out during a storm and of course I didn't have the PC plugged into a UPS. Lesson learned and now I'm awaiting a new Asus motherboard and will be putting in a new AMD Black edition processor. I just need to get newer memory and a UPS and I should be up and running better than ever.

Tonight I'm going to the VFW Post on the Hempstead Hwy. in Cypress, Texas to see WOW/NWA-Southwest Texas. There will be a Heavyweight Championship Gauntlet, 10 Woman Championship Battle Royal, 4 way Tag Team Championship, and a Cruiserweight Championship. My mom is going with me because she knows one of the wrestlers (Chaz Taylor, son of Tugboat Taylor). If you're reading this and you want to join us, please do!

Saturday is either the Texas All-Star Wrestling show in Humble or Booker T's PWA in Pasadena. Humble is closer, but PWA is better. I just don't know if they're actually doing a show because they never update their website with any info.

Next Saturday IWE are holding a DVD taping at the Armadillo Flea Market at 4 PM. That's really close to me, so I'll be there for sure.

I don't want to do any of these things by myself, so join me! If you've never been to a live wrestling event, I promise to show you a good time and make you a fan!

AMD takes a dump but that won't stop me from Talkin' Wrasslin'!

So my AMD processor in my PC decided to die on me the other day. I'll have to wait until Sunday to get a new one and I hope I don't have to dish out an arm and a leg for a bunch of new crap. Thankfully my good friend Jason is helping me out with everything and everything will be back in normal order in no time.

I have a backup iMac G3 that was able to use to do Talkin' Wrasslin' LIVE last night, but Procaster doesn't support Macs yet and even when they do, they probably won't support such an old system. Thankfully I could still do the show via Livestream's web based video studio and I did about 40 minutes of talkin' wrasslin'. I talked about the ACW American Joshi Queen of Queens Tournament, TNA's Slammiversary PPV and new angles, WWE's The Bash PPV and new angles, local Houston wrestling events such as the IWE show on the 4th of July, the WOW/NWA-SW show next Friday, and the TASW and PWA shows next Saturday. I plan to attend most of the local shows mentioned and bring reports back onto www.robbzipp.net along with exclusive photos and perhaps some wrestler interviews.

As for the video and audio podcast of this week's show, there are none available. I was unable to record the show because of my computing limitations. If you didn't see it live, you missed out. Don't worry, though. There will be a new show next Wednesday and I might even do some weekend updates after the local events. Stay logged onto to www.robbzipp.net and get all of the latest!
