I have decided to split out my weekly reviews onto a new blog.
A couple of reasons for this:
So easiest thing is to create a new blog and move the weekly update posts there. And so starts the 2008K blog.
...missed my goddamned end of week death by spinning class because of some monumental tube fuck up.
And now I have lingering FURY over this. And I am bored. And it's a Friday evening.
Well there goes the economy. When George Soros is talking to the press, talking up a recession and the worst economic conditions since WW2, you know 2 things:
Spotted on Great Portland Street: a group of lads dressed up as smurfs, bringing much amusement to everyone who spotted them.
@Starbucks: hot, Hot, HOT AZN chick at Starbucks. She was interviewing some other AZN kid about uni entrance I think. It was a depressing conversation filled with things like:
Hot AZN chick: "Yes, I studied Maths and Physics at A-Level,"
Hot AZN chick: "...well I studied at a dance school in LONDON..."
Hot AZN chick: "..so what extra-ciricular activites do you do?.... Oh right, so that's just a hobby..."
Needless to say she was possessed with that kind of smug self-confidence only someone who finds things (everything) ridiculously easy. I felt a bit sorry for the nerd she was interviewing, but not THAT sorry. He'll be going home to tell his mates of the HOT AZN super-smart mega bitch. Just like I am.
Leopard: I had a play with this at Apple Store on one of bigger shinier iMacs. Some pretty slick features in there. Almost bought a Leopard family pack, but fuck it - I'll wait till Apple bothers to release another couple of megapatches to fix up any flaws. What's the secret to great software? Time. And patches.
For some reason I was feeling the DOOM of corporate existence today. Sitting in Starbucks at lunch time, drinking my green tea and failing to reach a Zen frame of mind, as I seethed at the CORPORATE ZOMBIES surrounding me.
So a day of mostly general irritation, I guess the total fatigue didn't help. No gym either.
Ok so my day wasn't as bad as the above, but hey! Matt Wagner is writing and drawing a new Grendel series called, Behold the Devil. So far, so amazing.
Check this:
Well it made me laugh. (Scan from WIldstorm: Revelations, issue #1).
...as a child. Well, JAWS the film mostly, but I was ridiculously scared of that film and the blood and everything. But now I appreciate the sheer amazingness of SHARKS, which is why I was pleased to come across some amazing shark pictures today by Thomas P. Peschak.
I was going to stick an image here, but it seems that site has some cunning magicks to stop hotlinking of images. So I will respect the man's bandwidth and just urge you to click the link above.
Yeah I am looking forward to the new Batman flick (The Dark Knight).
Remember kids, Batman > *
Even Space Marines.
So I have enjoyed doing the traditional hashedge end of year blog posts, so much so that I figure I should do some more blogging. Hell I'm even going to check out the rich client blogging app: Ecto 3. Anything beats using lame web apps and I can't be bothered to roll out my own custom, ninjafied blogging solution.
I'll try and keep it all BLOG 2.0 with lots of gratuitous pictures and stuff.
Hmmmm.
It doesn't get more gratuitous than that now does it?
