A day late but you still get the dancing cake.

Just Cause 2 will be winging its way to you tonight!

Felix, although still technically a baby is now more of a little boy. He has a personality, desires, needs wants and is more than just a reactive system. Before now you put milk in, he processed it into something ungodly which you collected in a soft hopper mechanism attached to his rump. He's just passed 6 months old now, so it's a good time for an update.

I'm comparatively frugal with ammo when I play computer games. In most games playing on 'normal' level, I come to the end with a hamper chock full of grenades, pistol rounds and rockets. Worrying about ammo has never been a concern.

"I can't play online Risk anymore." said a new Chom Isis player "I just assume everyone is not trustworthy - which makes winning really hard. Chom Isis has ruined my enjoyment of Risk."

I do this every so often. I take on about a million projects. They never give up, they just grind along.

This post is as much for me and Felix as it is for you chaps. It's a record, reminder and a way to make sense of everything that's going on. I've been incognito for some time now and I hope to explain everything during the course of this post.

Happy Birthday you old mong!

2009 has been yet another remarkable year with some step changes. It's been invigorating, though and I have thoroughly enjoyed it. In some vaguely topical/chronological order...

Felix has an unusual name. We always felt that was right. In contrast, we thought his toys should have inappropriately normal names. I had trouble remember who was who, so I took some photos. Then I had an idea. (Click for biggies, 1920x1080)

A GTA moment is when you have enough stars that the police are throwing themselves at you and you use real-world common sense to solve the problem and make a get away.
