Terrific. Minecraft is getting another patch, which will probably break the game as far as my Season 2 mods are concerned - and just as things are getting interesting... although I did have a serious scare earlier, when my experimental Nether-ship - in development in the "surface" world, experienced a horrendous bug-out, and for a few minutes, I ( Read more... )

ITEM! *gasp!* I actually DID SOME WRITING. Not a great deal, mind, but the deadlock may just be broken. I doubt I'll reach my "100 chapters" target for the Darkhawk/Dominion 10th Anniversary, given my limited production so far this year, but interesting things will DEFINITELY be happening!

ITEM! Good to see the Redskins seem to have done okay in ( Read more... )

The Superbowl Autopsy... Sorry, 49ers fans, but the only people who robbed your team of a Superbowl victory were your own players, who fell behind by 22 POINTS just after the half.

We seem to be in something of a golden age, with a string of really good games. Can it last? Or will the Redskins break the pattern with an old-fashioned thrashing next

Oh Great... They're saying that RGIII will be back in playing condition for the start of regular season play - after *gulp* knee surgery.

*sighs* Why can't we have anything nice...?

Development News... Better news: Yes, "Wreck Of The Nemesis" is coming together nicely, with writing picking up pace - and Chapter 1 will be "2 of 100" for the 10th ( Read more... )

Ah, SHIT. The Redskins lost. Looks like RGIII's dodgy knee finally took its toll. Pity Kirk Cousins couldn't deliver in his stead.

Elsewhat... Okay, back at work now... and that's about it right now. I'll be winding things up at a sensible time tonight, and maybe some inspiration will come as I get to bed...

And Finally... Holy crap, was that a ( Read more... )

Oh well, it's almost time to welcome 2013, but first...

REDSKINS BEAT COWBOYS 28-18 - WIN 1ST DIVISION TITLE SINCE 1999!!!!!

Damn, is Albert Morris, our rookie running back, GOOOOOD. The 'Skins now host a wild-card round game against resurgent SeattleAlso in the news is something that has rather crept up on me - 2013 sees the TENTH ANNIVERSARY of ( Read more... )

Development News... Now that is what I call productive - right now, Chapter 5 of Tales of Shadow City: Seeing Nowhere Through The Eyes Of A Lie is pretty close to completion, after some SERIOUS writing last night, and today. I'm not quite "there" yet, but closeI'll have a more confident position to report this time tomorrow. May even have something ( Read more... )

But first, sad news: today, we lost Sir Patrick Moore, the venerable face of astronomy - and this comes just hours after earning of the death on Friday of Huw Lloyd Langton, Hawkwind guitarist of long standing.

There is, however, good news: The Redskins are 7-6, following an overtime win over the Ravens! We are still in the playoff hunt - and that ( Read more... )

...yeah, but the Redskins are piling on the hurt against Dallas - and there's another Tony Romo pick...!

(And then on the following drive, Romo throws 85 yards for a TD. Even so, it's not the end of the world...)

(...although it might be for Dallas, down by 22 points midway through the 4th quarter...)
