| Started and finished Return to Castle Wolfenstein over the
holidays. This and Serious Sam: Second Encounter are both
highly recommended! I don't play many games, but both of these were can't-put-em-downs.
Both were non-stop shooting with plenty of targets, ample ammo, and limited health.
I love games that have me hitting the QuickSave and Reload function keys at least
once every 60 seconds. |

This is why Ritual is so cool! ...and why we are all
going to Hell! Have you ever seen a better Jebus AND Satan? These are Rob at
E3 last May and at a Halloween Party last Saturnight... ...probably THE best Halloween
party of all time! It was at A****n C*****k's and the costumes were
incredible. A***n hired a fire-breather, a fortuneteller, tasty catered foodstuffs,
ample potables served by this tasty-looking morsel of a women, ...THE best!
There will be better pictures over at www.ritual.com,
go there soon! |

The Stanley "Levellord" in yesterday's update? Yes, it was a
joke, ...the real Levelord has only 7 1/2 inches.
I apologize for not giving everyone else the benefits of an international education.
The Croatian phrase in yesterday's update in English? ..."Oh my god,
those are the most beautiful breasts I have ever seen!" The lovely dainty on
the left is Martina Kirner (stop staring, she's mine!) and on the right is Barbara
Valcic. |

O
moj boze, ovo su najljepse grudi koje sam ikada vidio! I am slowly learning all the important phrases in Croatian because I must go
there soon! I hear that the beer is so good it will make your nipples hard! |

| I finally decided that I am spending WAY too much on Whippets and that a
home tank of N2O would be more economical. One thing
expensive habits teach you is economics! I'm putting a 100L capacity tank right next
to my bed. Anyhow, I was at the local hardware store looking for a tack welder
when I came across this unique tool. Granted, they spelled the handle with two
"l"s, but it's close enough! |

Woke up this morning thinking about Ol' Pa. Dug up this old Life
Magazine that ran an article about Silvermine College of Arts in New Canaan,
Connecticut. That was Dad's first Deanship. I'm 7 years older than he is in
this article (1969), but he still looks so older and towering. The article was about how
the college needed funding and the students protested for help. Back then, a pro-school
protest was very unusual. |

Can't say how much I enjoyed seeing that bomber footage of the Taliban Spelunker's Club
Camp #93 issuing secondary explosions yesterday! Great work!
Finally, apart from all the death and war talk, I have one last thing to say...
NIPPLES!

This is one of those cases where it is hard to be an owner of The
Company. On one hand you have a really talented artist (and one that showers
more than once a month), and on the other you have a loose cannon roaming your decks.
What am I supposed to do! BoBo The Seal has leaked a screenshot of one of our
next games, ...actually, ...my next game, ...on his little webpage www.bobotheseal.com.
It's a AAA edutainment game for youngsters called "Levelord's Street
Smarts - Learn NOW You Little Shits, or Die Later!". I'm shooting
for a December 2002 release, but that may turn out to be December 2003, or even 2004. |
I only had three small groups of kids come by for Trick Or Treat last night, ...and one
was a group of one, driven by his father from door to door. `Tis a sad state of
affairs, me thinks. Halloween used to be my favorite holiday. Bringing home
three pillow cases (they were the sturdiest) full of candy after a night of nuisance and
neighborhood terror.
I have memories of Halloween that I would rather forget. Kids, especially
juvenile males, can be truly evil and there are things we did that I now wish we hadn't,
...like taking Nair for peers of disfavor and, of course, two-week old eggs.
One scam, though, I remember dearly. We used to go out a week before Halloween
and tell people that our parents were taking the family to Fire Island for the official
holiday and that we had to Trick Or Treat early.
We would first go to the A&P supermarket and steal a package of that food dye, the
ones of five colors in the little plastic bottles. Each of us would dye our face and
hands a different color. The people wouldn't have candy yet and would invariably
give us nickels, dimes, and quarters. By the end of the night we would have a good
$10 - $20 each.
Of course, come the real Halloween, we'd be masked up official-like and go to the very
same houses for candy. Then it was the time to ask for a drink of water and grabbing
the entire bowl of candy when the obliging person went to the kitchen, ...and of course,
smashing pumpkins, ...sometimes against the heads of peers of disfavor when the Nair was
gone, ...but we'll try to forget that one, too.
I miss the old Halloween! |
