鮫肌男と桃尻女, a delightful action comedy full of dysfunctional weirdo characters. Well worth seeing, but looking for any deeper messages in it will probably be fruitless.

I don't really have much to say, just thought it was time to write something ;). Would post some stuff I've drawn, but I'm having trouble uploading to my webspace (again). You'll just have to wait until next time, I know you can do it if you really try. I'm finally making a serious try with actual paper and pens again. There's a satisfaction in creating a unique original drawing that I just don't get when working with digital media.

Thanks for the game info Norm, appreciate it.

Oh, and how about a book tip? Greg Bear's Blood Music, science fiction at its best. Real science fiction, not the space battle, homing laser crap. In fact, rather than exploring the tired old space scenarios Bear looks the opposite way: inwards. Read the short story. There's a novel length one too, but the short introduces the idea and develops it enough to make it interesting. I don't know why I came to think of this story today, I read it about ten years or so ago but it's one of those stories that've left a lasting impression.

Does the background of this blog usually load for you? Quite often it doesn't for me, so I guess I should change the design to something that's a little easier to read without it. Maybe I'll pick a colour scheme that's not quite as taxing on the eyes while I'm at it... I think I may have fixed the non-loading issue, tell me if it works.
