Thursday night.
My sister's sitting watching telly, and hears a clutter from the kitchen. She walks in to find the cat strolling out from behind the freezer, and (as you do) asks the cat "What have you been up to!?"
The cat doesn't answer.
Silly cat..
Sister goes back to watching TV.
Sunday morning.
Mum wonders why there's a puddle beneath the freezer, then notices the power light is off...
Suffice to say, the cat had managed to unplug the sodding freezer, wasting a crapload of food and requiring us to do a "big shop" online.
Bloody cat.
Bad enough she's destroyed the living room door, and is gradually working her way around the house, ripping up the corners of most of the carpets... But now she's started unplugging things, too!
FFS!
She'd better not touch my router, or there'll be hell to pay.
(The short wire was stretched quite tightly between the freezer and the fairly distant plug socket, so she'd obviously fallen/jumped/clawed at the wire, and it's worked its way out. Problem has been solved by way of a giant extension lead. Bit of a waste of a perfectly good extension lead, but.. damn cat!!)
Steve decides to buy Monkey, and then immediately becomes frustrated by the lack of instructions for getting all the different targets up and running. socoder.net/?topic=3700
9572AD gets a little nostalgic, and decides to hunt down a game he once played back in the BlitzCoder days.
He finally finds it, along with a collection of other classic BC games, on the website of gamedev Joe Lesko. socoder.net/?topic=3703
Upon clicking to his site, I immediately clicked to his twitter account, only to find that I was already following him!
*shrugs* Who knew!!

; Who's Joe?!
Joseph Mallozzi used to be one of the head-writers on the Stargate series.
He currently spends his time writing a daily blog, whilst struggling to settle on his next big project.
Since Stargate collapsed, he's written a short comic-book series, helped develop a TV series based upon the Transporter movies (which then got scrapped) and has written a few different TV/series pitch ideas which he's hoping will get some sort of attention, somewhere, maybe, hopefully...
He blogs, daily, about his life, his plans, his hopes, his failures, his dogs and his eating habits.
; The Wedding
Joe's currently in Tokyo for his girlfriend's sister's wedding. As such, his blog is currently full of quirky Japanese-centric posts.
The Wedding one, in particular was fun to read through. bit.ly/17VbxYH
; The Robots!
Today's blog post (at the time of writing plopping this into the newsletter!) is all about a Robot-based Stage Show, which looks all kinds of awesome.
If you ever wanted to see big robots dancing, Gangnam Style, this is the place to do it! bit.ly/1j6DOej
PS4 or XBone?
Or neither, because fuck that shit, I'd rather play actual games than fuck about trying to turn my TV over via the method of flailing my arms around like a mad chicken. socoder.net/?topic=3701
; School
Speaking of looking like a complete and total tit, I recently discovered my old School Class Photos from the late 80s/early 90s..
