Chilling, Gaming, Fringe, Music.

Just about to wrap things up on the working front for the day, I have great need for some serious rest and relaxation so I intend to spend what remains of the day reading the newspapers, magazines, watching TV & DVD's, packing up for tomorrow and playing some video games. I am going to bring the MBP with me tomorrow so I can develop material, still have lots to get ready for Monday. Lots of new music being released at the moment, last weekend I was checking out Monsters of Folk & Pear...

Paramore's new album is available on Monday, but iTunes should have it available at midnight tonight - can't wait to pick it up. First single from the album "Ignorance" below.

WOO!!

My copy of Halo 3 ODST is sitting waiting for me at home, I would have updated earlier via Twitter but I am limited on the new media front at work. I have a class now and a meeting after that but I should be home ofr 5.00. I am actually very excited about it now - can't wait to get playing. Hell if my world doesn't implode in the next few hours I may even start into the podcast tonight. I'm hoping to have a guest interview for this weeks show from one of my students regarding Halo but I can a...

Lots Happening

It's been a busy old time of late, between work, on goings at work and other issues I have had very limited time to update the blog. This then is my attempt to update on what has been happening. The podcast has been put on hold for a few days, I could have gone ahead and recorded as usual over the weekend but taking into account I should have Halo 3 ODST tomorrow and that I may be able to get a little guest interview organised in relation to that, I thought it would make more sense to leave reco...

Podcast Ep 5 Preview

I am a little unsure about this weeks podcast in terms of when I will record - this weeks featured game review was going to be Halo 3 ODST but I may not have that until Monday next. Furthermore the items that I have ordered from Amazon were also going to feature in discussion and I am unsure of when these will arrive. What I may do is record some unboxing videos for the Amazon goodies and leave the podcast until the middle of next week. I will make the call in the next day or so. If the show doe...

Ongoing

It's been a rather interesting week at work, well actually I'm not sure if interesting is the right word lets try difficult instead... I'm not sure how things will manifest themselves over the coming days and weeks but I hope everything can get sorted soon and with a satisfactory outcome. Moving away from navel gazing for just a moment my brother has just finished his PhD in Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, he was working on project dealing with anti-matter, ion collision and helium, all ...

Immortality

Eddie Veddar is a genius. Vacate is the word Vengeance has no place on me or her Cannot find the comfort in this world Artificial tear Vessel stabbed, next up, volunteers? Vulnerable Wisdom can't adhere A truant finds home And a wish to hold on But there's a trapdoor in the Sun Immortality... As privileged as a whore Victims in demand for public show Swept out through the cracks beneath the door Holier than Thou, How? Surrendered, executed anyhow Scrawl dissolved Cigar bo...

Pain & Relief

It's been a busy couple of days with lots going on at work and at home, things are still pretty hectic but hey what would life be without challenge. My toe is mending well but I must have developed some sort of passive death wish lately now having torn tissue in my neck, which is as you can imagine pretty damn sore. Ibuprofen FTW :) Anyway I hope to have new content up on the blog very soon, this weekend if my schedule permits, until then check out the preview for this weeks podcast below. ...
