I started playing Portal yesterday, I’m almost finished it now and while it’s so far been the shortest of all the games it has also been the most fun. It’s quite difficult in parts because it really makes you think outside the box, which I like about it. It has a funny storyline to it [...]
I took Kyle for a walk today, it was nice. It’s cute how curious he is about stuff, you’d think he’d never been out in the world before. It’s also funny how excited he gets to see you if you go into a shop and leave him tied up outside. Poor thing must thing I’m [...]
Less than an hour till the Hollywood Strike is set to start and the writers have gathered with negotiators to try to avert the strikes by reaching a deal at the last minute. I wish I could be hopeful that a deal could be reached but I’m not, and frankly I’m sort of hoping the [...]
Apple launches the iPhone in the UK and Germany this coming Friday, November 9th. Will British people be queuing up for days before a la US launch? I don’t think so. For one it has lost some of it’s cult status of being the first to own one since it has been out in the [...]
I finished Half Life 2: Episode One today and I have to say I was quite disappointed in it. Apart from being rather short, I completed it in 2 hours and 55 minutes, it seemed a bit lacking in storyline at all. It seemed like you didn’t do anything for ages and then you got [...]
Looks like the Hollywood strike has already claimed one show, the Heroes spin-off has been canned by NBC. Also the show went back and reshot the ending to the last episode before the Christmas break, on December 3rd, so that the ending can serve as a season finale if the strike is not ended by [...]
Uh-oh spaghettio, looks like Hollywood might be on hold soon. Today the Writers Guild of America voted to go on strike as of Monday morning at 12:01am. Most shows won’t be affected for a few weeks since they film in advance but daily shows like Jay Leno and David Letterman, which use recent news as [...]
I just finished my book A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian and while it sounds like it should be a book compiling a short history of tractors in Ukrainian, surprisingly it isn’t. It tells the tale of two sisters, Nadia and Vera, trying to stop their father from marrying the voluptuous Valentina, a Ukrainian [...]
I finally got my TV Shows application working again today. It automatically downloads my TV shows for me when they become available on torrent websites and it’s such a pain in the arse to do it myself so I’m chuffed that it’s working again.
I passed another 2 assessments today in college, sat one and still [...]
