This is going to be absolutely fantastic! It's like a backstory for the game. It's like pure sex!

Pretty tired this week. I've just moved everything out of my bedroom, ready for plastering on Saturday morning. I do not like upheaval, but it also makes a good time to throw out a lot of stuff I'd forgotten I had ( Read more... )

I babysat Troy last night while Sarah entertained at home (I think!). As I dropped Troy off at his home this morning, two of her friends were just leaving so I'm guessing they stopped the night ( Read more... )

It snowed again on Thursday morning. The roads were OK, but I kept to the main routes I knew were sure to have been ploughed and gritted. The weather reports keep saying there is more snow on the way, and the next three weeks are going to be extremely cold ( Read more... )

Milk follows Harvey Milk (1930-1978), the San Francisco supervisor and first openly gay elected official in the United States who was assassinated, along with Mayor George Moscone, by Daniel White the year after he was voted to the city supervisors’ board.

The episode I saw yesterday was the conclusion of the previous Dooku Captured story. During their own attempt to kidnap Count Dooku, Anakin and Obi-Wan discover he ( Read more... )

The Spirit was bad for many reasons. Sin City, which started the whole chroma-key "graphic novel on the screen" fad, was a whole lot better... and I didn't really like that one a whole lot, either. It seems to me that while comic strips in a newspaper were short and to the point--leaving little room for real characters and only flat cardboard cut ( Read more... )
