Joe has been importing all of our CD's onto the Batcomputer.

When we are done, we won't have enough songs to fill VernIsh.

Import and Post

Things that suck: Importing a bunch of compilation cd's. And having to go back, listen to the first few seconds of the songs and try to remember the titles.

DAMN that was a close game! ND had pulled way ahead, but I rallied with a final triple word score of 51 points...and still lost! I had a 2-point "g" left over which got deducted from my score (266) and added to his score (264); i.e. he ended up with 266 and I ended up with 264. Phew!

We're having a death [re-]match.

ND has his entire music collection on shuffle as we're playing. During the course of the first game, we heard "Master of the House" from Les Mis; the Empire death march from Star Wars; a random Christmas song ND didn't even know he owned (which included the line, "Here comes fatty with a sack of shit and all those stinkin' reindeer"); a bunch of random "normal" music; and then some odd noises that led to him saying, "Pardon me while I go change this track. I think it's 40 minutes of Tibetan chanting."

Dating a sound designer is always an adventure.

Pete, thanks for the links, that is VERY cool. Hope we can do it again SOON!

You're welcome.

So, um, Pete, if this does happen, do you give Halo Lessons?

Oh, just pop on Xbox live they'll school you good and proper. You'll even learn new lows in swearing, racism, enuciation and just plain old I.Q. Yeah, it's a loony-bin.

Onto your question, I'd be happy to show people the ropes, so people have a better understanding of the weapons & maps, though you can learn all of the former and more by playing the campaign, which is worth it. Much of it is just practise, but yes, I'm happy to show people the ropes. When I'm not on a deadline.

Kristin & ND; I love Scrabble.

Bring it! Uh... sometime in the future.

Bring it!

Great! Then we can have a whole NEW meaning for, "You Peted!" Along with its current usage as "failing to hit anything while playing a driving game in which you are supposed to hit things," it can also mean "failing to score more than 5 points on a Scrabble word!"

Duly noted. I look forward to the scrabble-beating you shall receive, urchin.

Hey, if I were afraid of bear-baiting, would I really be with ND?

Katefate! It's good to see you around.

So, um, hi! I hope everyone had a non-traumatic holiday.

I've heard people get tired of pasta, bread and cheese, but I'm having trouble coming to terms with it. I guess I'll have to go to Italy.

Ditto. Cindy can come with me. We'll stay at my parents' place on the beach, have espresso and a cornetto in the mornings, and let my relatives stuff us to the gills.

Hil, I hope you're having a good time.

Meep!!

Sorella, can I come too? Pretty please? I'll practice my vast lexicon of...four...Italian words!
