WOTD

word of the day : mawkish

more analog

todo: next time I'm playing tourist in one of the following cities { Amsterdam,
Barcelona,Berlin,Dublin,Lisbon,London,Madrid,Milan,Paris,Prague,Rome,Wien,Boston,New York,San Francisco,Washington,Chicago,Los Angeles,Seattle,Florence,Venice,Montreal} I REALLY need to journal my time with one of these:

Alternatley a Trip journal might be fun with a series of the the Washington journals.

also a sketchbook and pair (weekly/daily) of diaries would be fun.

this will require me to re-locate my fountain pens.

On peanut butter

the "natural stuff" is thin!

re-enrolling

... school!

Rollins, Henry

- Is a fan.
I never realized the extent, the depth, the pure unadulterated obsession people can form with bands and music.

Rollins commentary is interesting, I'm assuming he's relating real events (filtered by his politics and personality) (I mean who doesn't). The really unique thing is he (evidently intentionally) regularly confronts the "socially awkward" and muddles through.

I've got a great depth of respect for him.

Consuming Evenings

Fall:

Portal - rocked (the best credits ever).
Halo 3 - fun
Halo 3 - ad campaign - unadulterated cool
Bungie taking over the world - well... only if they ditch Microsoft's "flagship" responsibility (being flagship evidently means you must spend millions refining the play-experience... at the cost of trimming extra levels)... on the other hand... they did pull a matrix-RE* and just like the movie there was not enough content.
Bioshock - System Shock 2 - cyberpunk + steam. a bit "shallower" (missing classes).

Still upcoming:
Mass effect
Guitar Hero 3
a plethora of other titles I've forgotten that PA will do more justice to than I.
