The rule to stop either of us wasting too much time is we can only play games when we are playing with each other. Dunno how long that will hold.

The problem with Civ III is that the only strategy that really makes sense is spamming cities. Thats it. Everyone is getting a pocket protector for christmas.

Don't bother with L4D. Get l4D 2 first because half the L4D maps are ported over to L4D 2 anyway.

So much so that I cannont imbed it here. Enjoy. International PosterNot going to bother with them. The first old one was good, and the second two made me want to smack myself in the face with a 2x4. The "plot twists" were so embarrasingly stupid and clichéd, and the events were so improbable. Just stupid.
I felt exactly the same way. The second two were directed by a different, less talented, person so they had a "made for TV" kind of feel. Not saying the storyline doesn't have issues but a good preproduction team can fix/change a lot of that. I'm confident that David Fincher will make it work.

If you like No Country For Old Men, Thief and Bullitt, you will dig Drive. The whole cast was great and the score was amazing.
Just know that it is NOT an action movie and is a bit "Lynchian" in a few spots. A lot of the people in my theatre did not know that going in and totally got sandbagged.

So... how do you like this for a good birthday..
I'm at the office now. it's 19:30..
My pick-up is stuck in the middle of fucking nowhere because the tyre on the trailer brimming with steel parts decided that it didn't want to play anymore...
I cannot do a thing, since I am the only one at work and there is no other car here that I can use... the guy that took my car also took his car keys.
I am probably only getting out of here in about 2 hours or so...
Yaaay! I'm having a fucking BLAST!!!!

But on the other hand, everything is really looking up!!! The car thing is just a minor complaint, even though it does happen at a time of celebrations and what not.
I might yet achieve my ultimate rock climbing goals by not climbing!!!!
