All work...
But I'm back in town. Back by popular demand is my rambling and reasonably shambolic blog.

Well, I've been looking for pictures and stuff to make this worth everyone's while, and so I remembered seeing this a month or so ago:





Look at the name of the iPhone app in the middle if the page. "iCount"? Well, to me it looks like it's saying something else entirely.

Now I love all the silly bits of plastic Apple sell me, but do they really think that providing this service will make me love it more?

Probably.

I can't put down "iCount". I love "iCount".

Seriously though, how did anyone get away with that logo? some "iCount" got fired for that blunder.

I found another game, also involving animals, that has left me questioning a few things. The game? Planet Rescue: Endangered Island on the DS.



Right, look at the pandas.

Why is the big panda, lets call it the mummy panda, beating the baby panda? With his dinner, no less.

No wonder pandas have issues.

Their parents beat them with dinner. If my mum had hit me with sausages from a young age, i bet i would have an issue with reproducing too.

Oh well, at least these amazing people have rounded up all the endangered animals in the planet to one small island.



Oh well, eh?

and he offered me some Cheeseburgers.



I declined the first offer, but took him up on the second.

$2 was a bargain.

While i was admiring my completed journal entry, i spotted a banner advert on the page, which caught my juicy eyes.



Loads of Joker costumes, based on the Joker from the latest Batman Film, "The Dark Knight"

Well, i thought, lets have a wee gander at some of these.

I instantly regretted my decision, when i found this staring right back at me from my screen:



My memory isn't amazing, but i cannot recall Marlon Brando playing Heath Ledger's Joker, dressed in a suit purchased from Primark.

It looks like a "Bo Selecta" costume, but minus the glasses.

I'd rather burn it than wear it.

Anyway, enough for now.

I'll tell you, SUBJECT HEADER.

I'm playing this PC classic.



Before you ask, i'm not the chap doing the shooting in this clip, for i am a dreadful shot, and this laptop, less than a year old, can barely play this very basic four year old game.

Ho hum.

The game was designed to be a test to see if it was possible to replicate the assassination of President John Kennedy. Not to be confused with this guy, who i presumed is related.



Maybe he'll get assassinated in the ring next Wrestlemania?

Who cares?

Give it a wee download and try to see of you can perfect the art of killing an American national treasure, who has been dead for nearly 40 years. Happy hunting.

When someone tells you that they're going big game hunting, what animals come to mind?

Lets set this in America, for the sake of ease.

Maybe a bear? A mountain lion? A moose? Yeah, they sound about right.

A mountain goat? Nope. No way in hell.



Lets look a wee bit closer.



It turns out that in video-game terms, a mountain goat does fall into the category of "Big Game".

Hmmm.

Tell you what, when i think of "big game", i think of big animals that, if they were to assault me on my way to work, i would shit myself.

A bear? Definitely. A mountain lion? I'm even scared thinking about it. A moose? It would certainly be surprising. A goat? I'd just wonder if it was lost. No fear.

Now if they were to bring this out, i'd classify it as Big Game:



I'm pre-ordering my copy. I hope you are too.

Oh, and hello, my name is Scott.
