For those that don't know what Blitz is, it is another game in the Rock Band franchize. However this time, you play all instruments using a controller. it's quite fun, but freakin hard to figure out. I think I'm slightly improving. you should've heard my attempts the first day I got it. hahaha.

Hi Dark, Right. Although, as I've said before high school courses in the U.S. are very selective about what history they do and do not teach. Most of it is geared for American history, and by American history I'm talking about they start with Christopher Columbus discovering the Caribbean Islands
