Totally went to a skid pan day and slid the shit out of my car. As soon the skid pan dried out though, it was tyre smokin’ drift action. Not that I managed to get any of that on camera, because the only person who filmed any good footage of cars today was me, and […]

On this frozen nameless shore.
Back when the Sony PlayStation was The Hottest Thing, the hottest game was Gran Turismo. You may have heard of it. Because of it, and it’s sequels, I came to fall in love with the S13 Nissan Silvia. And drifting. Then, and I don’t know when this happened because I am research and effort averse, […]
Somehow I always end up falling over me.
Don’t you just hate it when someone updates his or her blog just to tell you that they are not updating at the moment because they got a new job/girlfriend/limb? Me too. Which is why I am posting this update to say that I have been super busy of late, but I will be updating […]
An underwater guy who controlled the sea.
So, LucasArts have revamped, re-animated, re-scored and voiced a new version of the classic The Secret of Monkey Island. And you can get it for Xbox 360, Windows or the iPhone. I went with the iPhone path, because, hell, a point’n’click adventure makes more sense with a touch-screen than a gamepad, right? Alas, whilst the […]
Serve as a juror in a censorship case.
I was never really an outdoorsy kid, as a child growing up. I used to spend my Winters rugged up all nice and warm in front of an Amstrad or an Amiga whilst my friends and neighbours took the opportunity of a cooler clime to fall down mountains on thin sticks of wood. But as […]
For our spirit and laws and ways.
So, VNV Nation. Futurepop Industrial dance band and all round nice guys (I’ve managed to chat to them both a couple of times, well, by chat I have walked up to them post-shows and talked at them about how great they are) and a band I happen to think are pretty great. So, VNV Nation. […]
Which do you choose, a hard or soft option?
I was, don’t you know? So, the question is this, should I spend the money to advertise that fact? Or keep that little bit of knowledge to myself? Ja oder nein?
Remembering you standing quiet in the rain.
As I mentioned yesterday, I want to be a photorapher photographer-type. I want to know which lens and which f-stop and what ISO will give me the impact and look I want. So I bought a Canon EOS 450D/Digital Rebel XSi to help me in that. And I am so completely happy with it. I […]
Blue hands and a torch.
It is Tuesday here, so I am declaring today Linkblog Tuesday. I will update this post with interesting* things as I find them. The Stereo Holga is for those times when one crappy retro lens is just not enough. Now you can perfect that crappy retro 3D look you so desire. Highly lusted after here […]
See that dust cloud disappear without a trace.
Trick = threeze, threeze = Trick. Why? Well, so I can add the new Twitter widget that I have or attempted to add to this blog. Why? Because I like Twitter. That should be enough.
