What I’m Playing

The Long Municipal Nightmare Is Over!

Yes, a decision has actually been made about the Edmonton Municipal Airport…not just more blathering and talk of nebulous ‘studies’ and ‘concepts’ before everyone scurries back to pretending they had anything else to do in their utterly spineless day. And the decision is…close down one of the runways and develop that section of land, and shut down commercial air traffic at that time. It’s a choice that actually makes sense, which is why I’m so [...]

Beta Testing Causes Murder

It was something I’d talked about, complained about, bitched about many times in the past. “How the Hell did this game get released in this state?! Were the Beta Testers blind chimps?!” Beta testers were the bane of my gaming existence…they were always the reason for faults in a program, their sheer incompetence behind every flaw and mistake. So, of course, when Matrix Games announced they had 3 upcoming titles that needed testing, what did [...]

The Podcast is Over

Well, the recording is, anyway. We blathered on and on…and ON for an hour and 40 minutes. Then we actually started editing things down a bit. I officially hate us.

IT BEGINS!

Yes, it’s that ultimate cop out to begin The Utterly Mediocre Blog-a-thon of 2009…the ‘Let’s talk about what I’ll write about at a later time’ post! Weeeee! This thing DRIPS enthralling! So, just to explain the idea : every day for the next 31 days, I need to post an entry that is a minimum of 150 words long. Actually, I just handily noticed that WordPress actually has a word counter that updates every time [...]

My Pal Satan

Here’s a little ‘pre-competition treat’ for people…an amusing web site featuring everyone’s favorite show, My Pal Satan. She’s a normal, well adjusted girl! He’s the ruler of Hell’s denizens! Prepare for the WACKY! The OPENING THEME to the first episode features mentions of the Hindenburg and cancer played for laughs…I love it. I just watched Episode 2…in order to obtain more money in a board game, he just robbed her at gunpoint with a real [...]
