oh ..............

What the fuck is she meant to be? The character of course, not Rez's lovely child's toy.

Last I heard, yeah. Funny thing is I don't see him about these days- we've totally drifted apart so, you know, totally worth it. As for me and her now...yeah. Trying to sort it out, I suppose. Kind of complicated, though. Yup.

I dunno, really. I doubt it. But then, He was probably projecting a lot of desires on to her personality as tends to be the way of these things. I like her more now than then, actually.

oh he was smitten long before. He's not exactly blessed though and she wasn't interested. All the same though it didn't feel right.

Yeah pretty much one fell swoop. It's like when someone tells you about Greg Land O-face.

Complex is the one where Hope is born right?

Yeah she's wicked. lawd knows how they do half that stuff, it's amazing. She's so cool too. That tux and the hair are just brilliant and she's absolutely gorgeous. Win!

Dazz your friends sound like proper douchebags. --- This sounds absurd written down but back in the day I ended it with a girlfriend because my friend was in love with her. Empathy got the better of me and I felt like I may as well be punching him in the head when he saw us together. Looking back, it was kind of retarded. Still, we met up recently for a drink, had some pretty decent sex and might get together properly again. Funny how things work out.

Hahaha yeah. That's a classic.

Yeah but with that kind of potential why not just get some!

Yes I've always said that BSG isn't about space or science fiction- It's merely a frame for a deep and intense character drama about darker subject matter than more mundane settings would allow. Just wait till you see the first episodes of series 3. Without giving anything away, I can safely say that they're an incredibly brave piece of political and social commentary that comes from a place so leftfield and far away from the common American public perception at the time that they were made that, frankly, their existence baffles me. Brilliant, brilliant television. I've started season 4 of Six Feet Under. Intensely dark television. The ending of season 3 is heartbreaking. Great drama though. Those that have seen it will know what I mean but the way the viewer journey's along with the Fishers through the final episodes of the season is wonderfully done. Their confusion is our confusion and the decision not to indulge in dramatic irony is a deft writing touch that is as fine as any I've ever seen.

Despite myself, I'm actually really enjoying it so far. I hated the concept but the art is killer, the script has snap and some of the other characters you don't see so much in Uncanny are getting more time. It's blatantly irrelevant but I actually dig it.

I'll obviously need to hear it on my hi fi again but in the beta it was more of a hydraulic hiss from the armour so you might be right in that it's a pronounced cue. Another map video. This time it's Zealot, aka 'son of midship'. It's a new map but shares the Covenant ship aesthetic and also features a section of map set on the exterior of the space ship with low gravity and so on. Looks like a proper hardcore arena map, too.

I'll make your business cards for you if you let me put Cunning Linguist on them.

Yeah they have remarkably poor stamina for cyborg super soldiers...

Right, here we go. WOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAHHHHHH! :yay: --- OK that kind of does the trick. I am, of course, trying to sum up just how deliriously exciting and dynamic the brilliant Janelle Monae is. who, you ask? Well, peasant, I'll tell you. She's an RnB singer from Atlanta and protegé of Outkast's Big Boi and is, frankly, the single coolest and interesting artist of the year. She has an amazing mix of jazz, funk, hip hop and big band mixed in with songwriting so sharp you could shave with it (but not your danglies. watch out!) and that's nothing to say of her live show. Unbelievable stuff.

*cough*

Today I handed in my first 'career' job application. Editorial assistant job here. If I get it, I'll be working on the comics specials + other stuff.

Yeah it does seem a little intrusive. I don't remember it from the beta so it's either new or just not that noticable when you do more than watch a game on 'tube

bit of a media blow out if you missed them 'Battle Begins campaign trailer and a full start to finish team slayer game on Reflection, AKA Ivory Tower (Halo 2)

That looks incredible.

Who's doing that? She Hulk is way under used.

What the fuck?
