Nothing much happened today. Get used to that phrase.

Only noteworthy thing was when I turned on my old pc. It did the same as yesterday. Wouldn't start. Just beeped. Again I got into the bios. And it had forgotten all the changes I made yesterday. No hard drive detected. Sigh. I guess the battery is dead or something. And even though I'm a badass tech guy I don't know what to really do about that. I don't think I can replace it. I've tried keeping the computer on all day in the hope that it would recharge the battery or something. But it doesn't seem to work. So I'll probably have to go auto-detect the hard drive from the bios everytime I turn it on. Annoying. But live-with-able.

And this is James Pond:

I just thought I'd throw him in here.

I got the first James Pond game bundled with my old Amiga. But it was the second one that was really great. What happened to good old cute games like that? You don't see James Pond savagely beating a teddy bear in 3d do you? And it had penguins. Too bad I never got to join FI5h.

Right now Lord British and the royal guard is trying to slaughter my avatar on my other computer, just behind me. Haha. I have no idea where the cyclops and the harpy came from. But they're all dying.

Damm thee!

I give up!

Spare me!

Alert the town guard!

Take this!

I surrender!

Let me be!

Thou hast best not do that Avatar!

Who needs the real world anyway. I'd much prefer a mental cruise through Britannia. This vacation better last forever or I'll go postal.

Etcetera
