Raithe

I'm having a hankering for some Arabian Nights again.. but I settled for listening to some Sheherejazz.. http://youtu.be/dX3S3Qp_mnM

Well, I've just tried playing my first game on this. And literally every player I've got fumbles the ball when throwing, falls over every single time they move past an opposing player, and pretty much breaks their neck every time they get tackled.

Sir Patrick Stewart Gets Married: Announces it with typical Genius

"If you are young and not a liberal you have no heart. If you are old and not a conservative you have no brain."

It's grey, grim, miserable and pissing it down with rain here. Also, my internet keeps flickering off, which is not adding to my happiness.

Well I did dabble in the original GW game back iin the day.. So I'll just pick a copy of this one up at that price and see how I get on with it. So mayhaps I'll be able to give it a whirl.

Isn't that from the robot butler in Fallout? Hm, I can't remember. It was also a sign outside of a garage.

"Don't trust Atoms. They make up everything."

Because this thread needs a bit of oddness thrown back into it..

Although potentially there are days where I'm younger then I look and older then I feel...

"I'm older then I look, and younger then I feel...."

Is that kind of humour like the "Homeland Security, Protecting America from Foreign invasion since 15xx" captions on pictures of Native American warriors?

The World's End. It produced a fair few chuckles. It's Simon Pegg and Nick Frost work their magic, pulling in a few pop culture references and a damn good supporting cast. Plus, it has some amazingly well choreographed fight sequences when the bar fights break out with the aliens...

Still getting used to the absence of my sister and the big dog. Suddenly not having to deal with it is feeling just slightly odd. Although the cat has taken it into place to start making an awful lot of pitiful meowing at odd times. Sister actually did a flying visit today, apparently she's got a creepy neighbour with no social skills who stares at the windows from a distance and sets the dog barking. Along with such things as trying to talk to her along the lines of "oh, I love dogs. If you're having trouble getting time, feel free to give me a key and I'll go in and take him out for a walk during the day when you're at work."

I have to admit, the finale sequence where you get the "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" line, and then the music from The Transformers The Movie starts (and yes, I'm talking the 80's animated one..) just has me cracking into a ridiculously childish smile.

The classic that was: Biggles - An Adventure in Time. Peter Cushing's last film. Plus an ending scene with an impeccably delivered line: "Get us out of here before they realise you're NOT a God. You're JUST an American!"

For the Warhammer 40k spin..

Heh, so I threw an email at Koch Media asking about why there's no physical product of the pc version available and just got a reply: It's these little things that would be nice to know when the game is being released..

Heh, that reminds me of that old quote "real sex is like real violence. It's messy and the results usually end up smelling quite badly." Urf, but its being a seriously grey and depressing day here so I'm trying to establish some get up and go to get things done.

Heh. io9 - DC Won't Allow Batwoman's Gay Marriage to be Depicted.

The internet can be a very weird place. On the other hand, I do know a few people who first "met" each other via some chat sites, and over time ended up getting married. Heh, one couple who started talking on the old WB Buffy chat site back in '98 or so, and they were on opposite sides of the Atlantic. I got invited to their wedding about 6 years ago.

Had a rather terrible night. Lots of weird dreams I kept waking up from. So I'm staggering through the morning like a zombie in need of tea... I actually kind of enjoyed Chronicles of Riddick. It was interesting that they approached it in a "we're doing a sequel, but we want to make it a sequel about the characters not just re-doing what we did for the first film and adding more gore." Apparently Twohy and Deisel had a vision of three parts when they pitched Chronicles to the studios, but because it was being financed by a studio that had to tone down a lot of the R rated aspects. Now that Riddick is being independently financed, they've been able to push it back to R, but have to scale back some of the ideas they had for the budget.

And condolences LC. Tis never fun to go through that. Nelson here pretty much refuses most forms of cat food especially any of the jellied kind. He pretty much only eats the kibble.

Roaming around in Saints Row IV and having a few giggles as I throw aliens into the air with super-strength kicks to the groin....
