Here he is: the Star Trek communicator. Just got it from the post man. Now if I could afford a real size Enterprise E…

Being a worthless retard, only managed to cut 1/3 of the cable. Nevertheless, I decided to upgrade the lock. The worst thing is this bike is not even worth that much. I know it (yes, it, because is a lowlife, not even human) saw the shining new rear wheel, but well, shit happens.

Anyway, here’s the bike with new lock in place. DSCF2740 DSCF2741

I found out that actually is a pretty large number, larger than expected :p.

Lets make a list then, and update as I make time for it.

Here is the list: my-tv-shows

Well, we can start with a nice update: got a new LCD TV, a 26 inches Panasonic Viera. PlayStation games have gained a new life now, and I can play without bothering anyone else :p By the way, if you have a PS2 and a LCD TV, get a composite cable. The difference is amazingly substantial. If you got a PS3, well, just get a HDMI cable :)

Speaking of PlayStation games, I got to the 50% barrier on Gran Turismo 4. Just hopping to get to 100% before GT5 gets out, tough something tells me I still have plenty of time to do that.

I’m now looking for a new place as well. With the recession and all that one would expect prices to go down, but if anything they went up. So for now I’m on the lookout for a nice self contained studio.

Well, that’s it for now. Time to go back to GT4 and get up the ladder a little more.

It was the first movie I saw in 3D and it looked good. I guess they could have used the 3D more, but it was a good experience nonetheless.

The movie is good. Story-wise is simple, with the simple ‘Advanced race goes against natives, spies befriend natives, natives fight back, natives win’, but in terms of visual effects is really great. While seeing the movie it made me feel in a way I haven’t felt since Star Trek XI. This is probably going to be the winner for the best picture in the 2009 Oscar’s.

Since I’ve moved in here, there’s been a lot of snow :)

This were taken with a Nokia 5800 XM, so the quality is not that amazing… but is watchable.

It’s been snowing since evening last night.

Enjoy :)

Looks like this guys have returned (finally) to it’s roots. Well, kind of.

The last album from Cradle of Filth is not as commercial as the last two (which is a good thing!), and their play style resembles old albums of theirs, like Midian and Dusk and Her Embrace. However, is not as heavy as Cruelty and the Beast for example.

Nevertheless, I got the special edition for £2.50 off amazon, which I consider a good deal. Let’s hope this guys will continue to walk away from the garbage that is pop metal and start doing good old dark metal music!
