.. Jokers to the right

Here I am,

stuck in the middle with you.

And I’m wondering what it is I should do….

*cough* err okay. Don’t mind me

I’m still alive. Just been busy.

I’ll put my life under the microscope soon?. Until then, I shall leave you with the image of me singing the aforementioned Steeler’s Wheel song in the style of Mr. Blonde from Resevoir Dogs (sans straight razor of course).

Okay, so it’s been a few weeks since my last posting. I can only blame life on teh interweb for my absence. I got sucked into a couple of beta tests for upcoming games and have been merrily hacking and slashing my way through them. No real excuse beyond that.

I shall post more later… for now though, I’m off to get my hair cut and pretend to look presentable.

Ever needed a God and you were in a fix?

Running low on descriptions of triple-faced anthrapomorphic incarnations of the Mother goddess?

Forgot the names of the 9 Muses?

Well Search no further folks.

The kind and studious scholars over at http://www.godchecker.com/ have put it all together so you don’t have to.

Enjoy.

And the archives are updated… kinda sorta. Blogger has changed stuff and at the moment I can’t be bothered to retweak things, so I’m just going with the mass spammage at the bottom of the page for now.

I’ll try and think of something more constructive soon, in the meantime, just deal with it. I know I am.

In another one of my internet walkabouts, I happened to stumble across this particular website that offers various alternate views regarding world history. The snippets are each dated using the calendar of the particular culture to which they pertain so reading them can become slightly confusing, and there is a chronology of sorts going on so to understand some of the threads you will have to go back to the beginning and read forward.

It’s a fun waste of time if you like that sort of thing.

Whee! Enjoy.

I found This little quirky and fun flash game the other day and I’ve been addicted to it ever since.

Enjoy.

With All Hallow’s Eve just around the corner I found a little bit of light reading to help you get in the mood.

I stumbled upon This site the other day and found it rather intriguing and compelling, and something that fueled my imagination as I pondered the implications of things as presented. Definitely an interesting read.

I leave it to you to make up your own mind regarding the truth or fiction of the content.

Enjoy.

So I’ve been unwittingly sucked into watching another tv show… bringing my grand total of shows I watch regularly to a whopping 3½ (half because I haven’t decided if I like or will continue watching CSI: New York yet or not).

I started watching Lost tonight and I’m actually quite impressed. When I first heard the premise, I shrugged it off as yet another Survivor type of show and thought nothing of it. Then I heard that Merry from Lord of the Rings was in it and I thought, hrrm… it might be better than average. Then my wife started watching it (cause she’s odd like that) and started giving me a weekly rundown of things to the point where I was more than a little intrigued with things. So this week I camped the tv and sat and watched an episode and was more than impressed and intrigued.

The character byplay was much more real than anything on Survivor. These were “real” people coping with a horrific set of circumstances. There was no million dollar prize, just survival and… hopefully rescue. I particularly enjoyed the way they introduced us, the viewers, to each character in turn via a flashback. It’s not a tell all flashback though, just a poingnant cameo of their lives that gives us some insight as to who they are and what they’re doing here.

I also like the spooky atmosphere of them not being alone on the island and their being anomalous critters and unanswered questions. It’s got me watching at least and if you get the chance I recommend checking it out and seeing for yourself.

A friend would come and bail you out of jail at 3am.

A ‘good‘ friend would be there, sitting beside you saying, “Damn! That was fun!”
