I’m very much looking forward to Fallout 3. 

I played both Fallout 1 and 2, but never finished them.  The turn based combat just annoyed the crap out of me.  I mean, I couldn’t STAND IT.  So while I have tried several times to finish both games, I always get frustriated and dont make it.  I love the idea of the Fallout universe, and I love the strange humor in both games . . . but having never finished them . . . I didnt quite know the timeline of the universe.

That is . . . until now !  Take a look HERE for a brief lesson in the futures history !

I’m working on a secret video (Shhhhh, dont tell anyone) and looking through all kinds of old pictures, trying to find some to make a video presentation (read, glorified slide show).

While I wait for all the data I currently have to copy to a portable hard drive, I decided to do a little link dump !

- Nuclear Weapons are bad, I wish no one had them.  But I trust our goverment with them more then I trust the Russians (or especially the North Korea).  Yah, that’s probably a very American thing to say (we can have them, but you cant) . . . but that’s how I feel.  I trust our goverment is more stable then North Korea or Russia.  Read a little article about Russias response to the American ‘ring of steel’ (the fact that we are placing air bases and radar sites all around them to detect and perhaps thwart nuclear missle attacks) HERE. What do you think ? 

- Speaking of Czar’s (watch this slick transition here) . . . a new bill, if passed, will give us a Copyright Czar here in the US . . . read HERE. I think a lot of this bill is good, but there are also portions of it that allow goverment ‘agents ‘to take your laptop, IPod, or any other digital device and send it off to be scanned for illegal downloads (that is, if you are corssing the border back into the US.  They just check for these things at the border at the moment.). 

-New type of Crystal will help infiber optics (no transition here) . . . read HERE. 

- Truck full of games is stolen . . . twice . . . read HERE.

- A cool video about Worship that I’m hoping to show in the next few weeks at church HERE.

- oh, and Iron Man comes out on Bluray Tomorrow (for those peeps in the US that is, ha ha rest of world !).
