My .NET Rocks Mug Arrived!

This is so cool, right? OK, well my wife doesn’t think so, she kinda thinks its a little sad that I went and purchased my own geek mug, from overseas no less!

But I just had to have one. The above picture is the very first cup of tea I’ve made in the mug, honestly, my lips hadn’t even touched the side.

P.S. Rory, sorry for chopping off your head dude.

The Last Star Fighter – The Musical

Back when I was a wee little boy I saw a movie called “The Last Starfighter” – ever since then I have approached playing space combat games with a little bit more attention, just in case it is just a front for an intergalactic recruiting agency, and I am going to be their next top gun.

The truth is that I was really quite good at Descent 1 & 2, a space combat sim set in the mines of planets. The beauty of this old DOS game was that you could move all six directions and anything in between, the ship controls allowed for straifing too.

Thats enough memory lane for now. The reason I mentioned Starfighter was that according to Playbill, is now a musical! How cool is that. I guess this is kinda like one of those defence force recruitment ads.
