gotta get back in time
Mar 8
You know, it occurs to me that if you were to go back in time to the year 1985 and tell someone that in ten years time Audio CDs would still be around, he’d probably say “uh – yeah, thats what I expected”
BUT if you were to then tell him that the alternative was to connect to a global network of computers and ‘download’ your albums direct to a walkman the size of a cigarette packet he’d say “yeah right – wierdo!”
and you’d say ‘No its true! I swear! Also, everyone has a phone the same size in their pocket, and you can play music on that too! Not to mention that arcade games are a thing of the past, because everyone has in their home a computer capable of rendering incredible 3d graphics almost indistiguishable from real-life.’
And he’d say ‘look, just get away from me. I don’t care about your wacky theories!’
and you’d get really angry that he didn’t believe you, and you’d club him over the head with an old betamax deck, and accidentally kill him, and then realise he was your grandfather, and as your essence started to disappear, you’d say to yourself
‘hang on a tic… he was a bit young to be my grandfather – and wouldn’t I recognise him if he was? I mean, its only ten years ago’
And then you’d wake up in bed and it would have all been a dream.
Or would it?
Call me.
A comedian once said
“british humour is someone extra-ordinary doing something ordinary,
and american humour is someone ordinary doing something extraordinary”
well, the way I see it,
British humour is a clown in a dentists waiting room,
American humour is a clown milling himself on a skateboard.
cleaning up dog poop
Dec 5
so what have I been doing this last week if not playing half-life 2 all the way through again?
Well, I’ve been cleaning up dog poop. Over the weekend we got a new member of the family, a little jack russell pup called leela!
Already my gaming is down considerably, but I don’t mind really. Its nice to have a little dog bouncing up and down around the house. even if she does poop everywhere.
