Over the past few weeks, I watched a lot of House. I have no clue why that excellent show didn’t catch my attention earlier, but I did a lot of catching up :). Bought the season I & II dvds, and have season III incoming from amazon.com.
This is one of my favourite scenes. It’s from Season III that’s being broadcast at the moment on dutch tv on thursday nights. Excellent part by Dave Matthews !

My friend John Fink has released a cd named ‘perhaps a nightmare’. He has been a musician for a long time, and has made several scores for documentary movies, and now released his first solo album. The music is very much like a movie score, you can now envision the scenes he describes with his music in your own mind :).
All proceeds of the cd will be donated to the National Breast Cancer Coalition Fund. John’s wife was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. Luckily she’s doing a lot better now after chemo and radiation therapy.
You can get the cd from cdbaby or John’s site.

A sad day indeed. I was staying with a friend in NJ at the time, and I was shaving in the bathroom listening to Imus on the radio when a report came at 8:45, that a plane has crashed into one of the towers. The thought at the time was that it was an accident and a smaller plane. But then at 9:00 the second one hit, and my friend came out yelling ‘planes have crashed into the WTC !!!’. We watched CNN for the entire day almost, got out to get Dylan’s new cd, that was released at that exact day, just to get away for a bit.
The guys from Tales of Heroes, a Company of Heroes RTS game podcast, have started a new gaming website at gamefire.com. The video quality of the Company of Heroes replays (accompanied by witty commentary) has been greatly enhanced, but you have to use the website’s player now to view the video as opposed to downloading it off the website like it was before. The site’s player is fine though and I haven’t had any trouble with it, but it doesn’t seem to work for some people.
The latest video that Bridger put up is one of the best I’ve ever seen. It’s a very exciting match between 2 teams of 2 players called Down to the Wire.
One that was released a few weeks ago, was also an instant classic, check out Hans the Sniper.
All of this should keep you busy while waiting for the Opposing Fronts addon for Company of Heroes :).
The oldest living Hall of Famer died in his sleep on August 14th 2007.
Last week I upgraded my motherboard and cpu, and reinstalled windows. I have finally decided to not install a whole lot of crap anymore. Just stuff I really want / use. One of the tools I want to keep is Rocketdock. It’s a bit like MacOs X’s program launcher. It looks very nice, and it’s very handy. You can easily keep the programs you use most often at the top of the screen. Or to the left / right if you want to do so. I am sure I am not using all of the features yet, but for now it’s been working great !
You can get rocketdock at http://www.punksoftware.com/rocketdock.
How come everytime I read about a fellow mmorpg player dies, that I dont even know, it makes me very sad ? I just updated my podcast feed of the Instance and noticed a special episode for Bruce Galloway aka Milliway in game. I have never met him, but reading about him, he was a wonderful helpful person.
From A Shadow Rose – Very nice post on warcry.com
Why do I, a thirty-seven year old man, play a computer game like World of Warcraft? What blatant justification could there possibly be for anyone to sit for hours in front of a computer screen and immerse themselves into a fantasy world of RP and, at least for a time, forget about his RL? I can give you one such answer: Bruce Galloway.
The instance – Rest in peace Bruce Galloway
While browsing through some flac and mp3 files on my drive, I came across this amazing track of the Xmas 2006 jam of Mule and Dave. And much to my surprise it’s also featured on YouTube ;). Enjoy !
