I sure haven’t been blogging much lately. Call it busy at work. Call it two-timing with other blogs. Call it February. I just haven’t had a lot to say here. I’ve still been playing Civ and Xbox with my homeys. Still hanging out and watching videos. Still takin’ it easy in the O-town. Just not [...]
I saw mention in a couple of places that there would be a short Halo 3 documentary released on the Xbox Live Marketplace this morning. I dutifully turned on the ‘box and took a look, but didn’t see it. I’m betting it hasn’t been released for us northern viewers yet, the internets being slow and [...]

Like, tomorrow sometime in the midafternoon probably somewhere over Nebraska. Stross has vaulted himself into my shortlist of science fiction writers with the likes of Vernor [...]
Weekend of, that is. In Canada, it is traditional to spend the long weekend [of May, aka, Victoria Day Weekend] camping, partying and/or drinking. I never really participate in any of the activities, but I do occasionally partake in the drinking part of it. Yesterday, I went over to a friend’s place and watched The [...]
“Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion” (2K Games) I spent a good chunk of the weekend hunched in front of my Xbox 360 playing Oblivion. Most of Saturday and a goodly chunk of yesterday. I got up in the afternoon to go over to our friends’ place to have some BBQ and loaded my save game onto [...]
Well, I had a busy week. When I wasn’t too busy putting hot peppers in my cat’s eye*, I considered writing something about Apple’s Boot Camp utility that everyone’s been losing their minds about — investors included.
