Sunset on the Desktop

Jul 28 2005

Well, at least my computer has some form of style. I opted for a radical makeover and went for BLUE. I think it came out pretty good. Shame about the weather outside, the rain came when Samantha left for Edinburgh and she’s gone for the month.

Attic Treasures and Easy Rider Rare Vintage Posters

Jul 25 2005

In a bid to clean up parts of the house we decided to rummage through our attic to make space for more boxes of things we don’t really need but like to keep. We removed some old boxes and looked through them, most of it was junk. Door handles, screws, locks, metal brackets, paint brushes, wallpaper, broken things and lots of dust. However we did come across a bag containing two large rolls, upon closer inspection they were my Dad’s old posters. These posters look pretty darn cool and I’m trying to value them at the moment.

Easy Rider Posters, very rare and vintage:

The irony of banning GTA due to sex

Jul 25 2005

Inside Firefox:
“Gamestop has decided to stop stocking Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Probably because parents might buy this game for their kids, and it has (shock) sex in it now accessible via a difficult to apply mod (on the PS2 at least). I guess using a prostitute, killing her and taking the money back, massacring pedestrians and stealing things is fine family fun, but consensual sex isn’t? For shame, Gamestop. You try and act like you’re above this, but instead you show how unenlightened you actually are.”

I just read this at InsideFirefox linked to above. I agree completely and think this “hot coffee” mod thing is going a little too far. Although I’m sure the british 18 certificate adequately covers this.
