It might just be.

That's my parent's dog. Awesome.

Have a Happy Hallowen all!

CheeseEater-

Been meaning to update my blog more and pledge to do so in the coming days and weeks. Got a few minutes to spare and thought I'd quickly post some random links that I find fascinating.

Mystery Glow in Ocean

Sweet. The ocean apparently glows white across segments the size of Connecticut. But only sometimes. And scientists don't really know why. That's not disturbing in the least!

Ultrasound Adds Haptic Feedback to Games
Wii killer? Probably not for a decade, but holy hell, there's a lot of promise here. Imagine gripping your hands around thin air and feeling positional feedback. Weird and awesome. We'll probably all die of cancer, but the games will be surreal.


Combined, these happenings are almost as cool as Zed from Zardoz.



Addendum: After I linked this picture of Sean Connery as Zed, I was struck again at what an amazing costume he donned for that role. I mean, really? I get it. It was 1974. Lots of the old nose powder going 'round, if you know what I mean. Wouldn't even be surprised if the cast broke every two hours for orgies. But, seriously? Look at that effin' outfit! He's the star of the movie, for crying out loud.

According to IMDB, Zardoz's "wardrobe master" was a fellow named Jack Gallagher, whose previous credits included such acclaimed films as The Viking Queen and Steptoe and Son Ride Again. I don't care what Mr. Gallagher may have worked on. He could've come from the gutters. All that matters is that he somehow got Sean Connery to wear that spectacular costume for one hour and forty-five minutes of pure, sexy, masculinity-filled heroism. I can just picture the unveiling of that beauty.

Gallagher: "Here she is, Mr. Connery. Right. So, now -- well, if you wouldn't mind shaving your groin region, we'll get you fitted right in there."

Connery: "Well, I have to say, it's a little unorthodox. I've just finished shooting Diamonds are Forever and You Only Live Twice, where I played James Freakin' Bond. But if you say that these leather hooker boots and orange diaper do the trick, who am I to disagree? This is a very bold, new future indeed. My hat is off to you, wardrobe master."

And then there were jumping high-fives.

And if you don't think that costume is sexy, feast your eyes on a few choice excerpts from the movie:

Zardoz: The gun is good.
Exterminators: The gun is good.
Zardoz: The peniz is evil. The pen!z shoots seeds, and makes new life, and poisons the earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the gun shoots death, and purifies the earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth and kill!

And here's another:

The Tabernacle: You have penetrated me.
The Tabernacle: You are inside me.

Rent this movie.

Oh, and on a side note, I once again (like every other blog post, made a new sig! )

Cheers guys, have a good one.

=D

Fantastic new TF2 Signature I just made for myself.

Took me ages to get the correct Print Screen of the Sniper.. Well worth it in the end though.

Oh...and on a side note, I managed to get demoted back to level 27. How fantastic is that! When GameSpot glitch's on you, leaving you with no text in your post, some little nub comes along and reports you. Thus, you get a serious warning and a loss of points. GlitchSpot...you've pretty much lost all my repect. No offence, but I truly do have to get this off my chest, because I've been on this site for so long, and seen it's numerous changes over the years...

In recent times, GameSpot has managed to screw up so many times. From selling there once respectable reviews to the money that Publishers are willing to spend on there games to get them above average scores (Cough, Kane and Linch, and most recently, Mercs 2, cough). Sacking Editors over fair judgement of Games, cough, Jeff, cough. Have managed to stuff up the coding of there website, to the point where every second post of mine appears as a blank message . And have obliterated the online community this site once had.

Gamespot, I first came on here this incredible website back in 2003...with good ol' Greg K and Alex N. It's 2008...and as a fan of this website...I'm sad to say that it really, really, has gone down hill terribly...

I hope the future holds much better results than the present...

(Once again, I was forced by GameSpot to copy my entire blog, and re-post it when I got the message saying that my "post was blank" :twisted
