Two Meme’s

  • June 20, 2008

First, Florence asked me what 3 things I’d bring to a desert island. My list is conditional: no people/pets and no electricity. Therefore, trying to be serious here:

1) A tent
2) A knife
3) A hand-cranked flashlight

With those three items, I’d be the master of my domain 🙂

Incidentally, I forward this meme onto anyone else reading with a blog.

Secondly, AW proposed a new meme, and here goes:

“Poleaxed, she fell to the floor.”
– Sting Of The Zygons (2007), by Stephen Cole

“His long blond hair was whirling with the harsh whip of the wind, and he had to yell to make himself heard above the din.”
– Castlevania II: Simon’s Quest (1990) by F.X. Nine

F.X. Nine eh? Could that be Francis Xavier?

Almost Gone

  • June 20, 2008

Early Sunday we leave for Puerto Rico. We’ll be there until Thursday. KLS will be spending much of her time in the training seminar, and I’ll be…well I’m not really sure. I think ‘exploring’ is perhaps the best word for what I’m planning on doing.

I’ll be blogging from my cellphone, so watch this space!

The only place (aside from the beach) I’m certain I’ll visit is the 500 year old fort that Old San Juan is famous for. It’s visible on the end of the promontory in the above shot.

If you have any particular requests for souvenirs, photos, blog entries or whatnot, please add them as comments to this entry.

And watch your mailboxes for postcards 🙂

Atomic FTW!

Momomo (my World Of Warcraft character) is the guild master of Atomic, a FF guild on our server.

FF means ‘family & friends’, which in this case includes 3 other players: Foosrazzle (JBF in real life), Fyrenze (SFL) and Numinor (JF). That’s me (on the right) and Numinor above.

I’m still enjoying WoW, but interest in the game within the community seems to be waning. This is of course partly seasonal (it always wanes this time of year) and partly because more and more information about the upcoming expansion tempts some to hang up their subscription until the release date.

Momo is just spinning her gears now, fooling around in the virtual world waiting for Northrend (the expansion continent) to allow her new avenue’s of advancement. Until then I’m content to assist my guildies in their endeavours or – if no-one else is on (sadly the norm these days) – to ‘play the auction house’ daily for a quick profit…
