I've been playing Dragon Age for about 45 hours and am addicted. If only stupid life didn't get in the way...
regarding the matter of video games v. movies
I had the house to myself last night, so I could watch whatever nerdy DVD or DVR'd movie I wanted, as loud as I wanted. I've been talking about re-watching the Lord of the Rings trilogy (extended editions, of course) for a couple of months, but when I finally had a chance to get started, I ended...
Wil,
Thank you so much for the Click2Flash tip. Finally marketing Nazis no-longer decide what I view on websites. You are a top chap.

ten quick things, including some math, a comic, and a few ideas
I can't believe it's Friday, which means tomorrow is the weekend. Where did this week go, anyway? A few things I wanted to mention before I get busy: 1. If you'd told me a year ago that I'd be going to bed between 9 and 10 every night, then waking up entirely on my own between 6 and 7 the next m...
Searching through a box of old stuff recently I found the first three seasons of TNG in video tape format. Unfortunately I no longer own a video tape machine so I have to rely on Sky TV repeats when they're on.
"What on earth did nerds do in the 1980s to figure this all out?"
I'm way late to the party on this, but I just started reading Spook Country this week. Unlike most Gibson books I've read, it doesn't ramp up slowly, and instead hits the ground running (that's not a bad thing). I'm only 30 pages in (it's been a busy week without a lot of time to read) but I'm p...
Wil,
My copy of Sunken Treasure finally arrived this week, after it's mammoth journey across the Atlantic. I'm almost finished reading it and, if you must know, it worked as a hook to get me into your writing, so job done there. I will be buying Memories of the Future (really enjoying the futurecasts by the way) but being a bluff old traditionalist I will be ordering a paper copy. For me, there's just something about a book that an electronic device can never top and I don't mind paying the extra $9 or waiting for it to cross the pond.
Regards
Memories of the Futurecast: Episode Nine
Holy crap! It's time for Memories of the Futurecast. Memories of the Future, Volume One, covers the first 13 episodes of TNG, so each week, I'm choosing something from one episode, and performing an excerpt for you. It will mostly be from the synopses, which is where I think the real humor of t...
I look forward to Memories of the Future coming out, but I fear I'll have to wait a while. I ordered Sunken Treasure over three weeks ago and am still awaiting delivery. I think it may have been sunken on it's way across the Atlantic!
Keep the Futurecasts coming, I'm really enjoying them.

this is the coolest picture you'll see all day
Well it's been a wonderfully busy week, and now it's over. I finished Big Bang Theory on Tuesday, spent much of Wednesday wishing I was still working with them, and then recorded the voice of Mr. Qubit for the IRREDEEMABLE motion comic yesterday. Since I'm too busy to write up the stuff that nee...
I've seen a few episodes of the Big Bang theory over here in the UK, but I haven't been able to catch as regularly as I'd like. Do you know when your episodes are likely to make it over here?
unraveling the mystery
We rehearsed some more this morning, and then did our run through for the producers and the network this afternoon. Before I share what little I can about the actual work, let's get the important stuff out of the way: I trained hard to improve my ping pong game with Nolan last night (Nolan play...
I'm loving the futurecasts, please keep them coming. By happy coincidence I received an email from Lulu.com today confirming Sunken Treasure has been dispatched to me. Now I just need to wait for it to cross the atlantic...
Memories of the Futurecast: Episode Three
Hey look! It's Monday, and that means it's time for a new Memories of the Futurecast. Memories of the Future, Volume One, covers the first 13 episodes of TNG, so each week, I'm choosing something from one episode, and performing an excerpt for you. It will mostly be from the synopses, which i...
