  • Friday Finds – Diamond Weevils, Firefly and the Commodore 64

    The holiday lull is over, I’ve actually got a few posts to put in here, woohoo! The Three Christmas Movies – Pretty much only three, minus a few classics that don’t fit. Movie Review – The Adventures of Tintin – A very good animated adventure. Old Game Tuesday – Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi…

    Friday Finds – LOTR and Star Wars

    Hey, it’s been a while.  Vacations, children, car shopping, attending Sabres games in the press box, all take a toll on my time.  Onto the posts! The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim First Impressions – Oh yeah, this has a lot to do with the lack of regular content too. Skyrim Stories – The Shakiest Swordarm…

  • Friday Finds – Remembering

    It’s 11/11/11, a day I’m already tired of being reminded of as being ‘special’.  The REAL reason it’s special is Veteran’s Day (or Rememberance Day for you folks north of me).  My dad was in the Navy for 26 years, in Vietnam, in the Gulf during some tense times, all of that.  I heard a ton…

    Friday Finds – Kung Fu and Carmen Sandiego

    Well, it was a busy week for me, though most of the creative juices were used at the Sabres site I run.  They had a rough week, what can I say?  Still, I got OGT out, and it’s one of my all time favorites, River City Ransom.  Check it out if you haven’t yet.  On…

    Friday Finds – War Machine and The Hobbit

    Happy Friday, all!  I’m getting back in the swing of things so got some posts down this week.  Not sure how many I’ll manage for next week, though, as I’m planning to fire up River City Ransom for OGT.  Might just nerd-snipe myself into oblivion there, love that game.  Anyway, this week’s posts: Kid Movie…

  • Friday Finds – Vicious Krakens

    I’ve been seriously sick pretty much all week, so there isn’t much this week.  Hope to recover over the weekend so I can get back after it. NaNoWriMo? Should I subject myself to this again? – Apparently so. Movie Review – Real Steel – Quite entertaining. Links: Krakens be crazy. Flying power generation, very cool.…

  • Friday Finds – Spielberg, Lesley Crusher and NaNoWriMo

    Hi all, busy week this week so posting was light.  Missed OGT, which always sucks for me because I love playing these old games.  :D  Here’s my one post of the week: Freaking AMAZING Lord of the Rings LEGO – Just what it says.  SWEET. Other links: A teacher at my son’s school won school…

  • Friday Finds – Solar Sails and LEGO

    Happy Friday all!  It’s a busy day today, so I’ll get right down to it: Old Game Tuesday – Sid Meier’s Alpha Centauri – What a fantastic game. Where Comic Books Make Us Uncomfortable – Me pondering sex appeal in comics. Ender’s Game – Might it FINALLY Happen? – We might ACTUALLY get the Ender’s…

    Friday Finds – Gingerbread and Satellites

    Hey everybody, hope you had a good week.  I was busy being productive at work (and moving to another building) so the links are light.  Here are this week’s posts: Gingerbread on my LG Optimus S – Got a surprise update this week, and it’s working pretty OK so far. Old Game Tuesday – The…

    Friday Finds – Downy Canadian Dinosaurs and Colliding Galaxies

    Hey everybody, hope you had a fun week.  Here’s the posts from this week: Movie Review: Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D – Time did seem to stretch out before me in this, for sure. Old Game Tuesday – Civilization II – *snore* – Huh, what?  I wasn’t sleeping after staying…

  • Friday Finds – Robot Octopi and Arctic Airships

    A light week this week, due to the holidays and not being home much. Raising a Reader – Getting boys to read. But that does leave plenty of room for links! Star Wars:  Heir to the Empire 20th Anniversary Edition, a fine gift for the SW geek in your family. A horribly incomplete list of…

  • Friday Finds – Psychic Benefits and the Silmarillion

    Friday Finds – Psychic Benefits and the Silmarillion

    Hey all, hope you had a good week.  I’ll be out of the loop a bit this weekend, though I might actually be able to do my fantasy football draft (wooo!).  Here are last week’s posts: Old Game Tuesday – Star Trek: Birth of the Federation – BOTF is a solid 4X game, considering the…
