Absolutely brilliant! Kevin Spacey doing some brilliant impersonations. Christopher Walken was my favourite.

I’ve been a big fan of Halo CE since the first days when Steve Jobs announced it at MacWorld with Bungie all those years ago (I was still at Uni then). So seeing Halo Reach coming to life has me brimming with all that excitement I had all those years ago for Halo Combat Evolved (Not that I don’t love Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo ODST).
Watching that video, you can see the love and attention those guys put into what’s about to blessed upon us. You really feel like these guys are perfectionists and if it’s something they really want to play and they love, then it’s almost certain we’ll be feeling the same way.

When Bungie first announced Halo Reach I was excited. Then I saw the Video Documentary they did, and I’m almost wetting myself.
The very festive Robot Christmas Dance (even though it’s not Christmas yet). These little guys open a world of opportunities!
After a long time, I’ve updated my site to use the The Unstandard 1.2.1 theme by Derek Punsalan as a base. There’s work to do, but it’s modern-retro looks are giving me a great foundation to grow my site from.
I’m in the process of re-writing some of my older gallery code into a new, modern Wordpress plug-in. Read the story so far.

I’m at that point where my blogging has calmed right down. I used to write several blogs a week, either for work or for myself.
But of late, I’ve been struggling to get the inspiration and I’m not sure why. To defend myself on how slack I’ve been, I love writing, as you can probably tell by the way I’m waffling now. I always have enjoyed writing, and I also love helping people review things they’ve written to help them target their audience better. Be it for a client, internal procedures, technical explanations or even personal documents like CVs.
That’s just the way I am, and I enjoy it. So what happened?
I’m using Twitter a lot, and talking to people getting links, re-tweeting and sharing dialogues with people. Maybe that’s the problem. I also still have my large number of feeds attaches to my Newsgator account – I check that on my work machine, home machine and my iPhone. Maybe I have too many feeds and am overloading myself and can’t focus on things.
At Amnesia Razorfish, I’m a project manager, but have involved myself in a lot of other projects. This has seen me moving away from my technical role, where I was quite a pioneer in researching and documenting things for the various companines I work for.
In my personal life, I’ve not been travelling much of late, and I like to keep my more personal adventures to my close friends on Facebook - I’m sure a lot of people understand where I’m coming from with that.
So what’s happened? What’s gone wrong? Maybe I just don’t have time anymore. My trip to work is now a walk, so I’m missing out on that hour of travelling a day that used to let me watch numerous podcasts.
I just don’t know, and I feel like a part of me has gone.
But then on re-reading this blog, maybe I just need to start writing again… Just sit down with a computer, see what happened on the day and write. Maybe that’s what a good personal blog is all about.
I’ve been on detox for a week now, and lot of people doubted I’d make it even this far, let alone finish. Why? Because I’m known for my going out antics, love of a good beer and a good cup of coffee. See how I’m going.
So it’s not quite perfect yet. I still need to finish updating a few bits of it – like the left nav and the archive.
But this blog is to give a big shout to the guys at NCL Hosting! Transfering my site across, and moving the domain proved a little problematic due to my domain being near to expiry, and some communication trouble with the old hosts.
Their patience was exemplary, and now my site’s up and running faster than ever. If you’re looking for a new host, I recommend NCL Hosting!
Have you heard of this legend? Very few have seen it, but apparently it appears only during fits of uncontrollable laughter. It was first reported in the.
