Master Shake: “I thought it was about the love. I thought it was about the music!”
Zakk Wylde: “No. It’s about the money.”
A Miracle: Tabula Rasa downloaded and installed!
I know, it’s amazing! It finally downloaded successfully. And, naturally, now that it’s finally here I don’t have time to play. I need a gaming fix! Waaaah!
Get this. Instead of playing games all day like a patriotic American should on the 4th of july, I’m installing Windows 98SE on this older computer so we can use it to record the band. I know, isn’t that nuts? But the recording interface I have here doesn’t have drivers for 2000/XP/etc
Need TR Fix Now.
(I am having trouble getting OpenID to work, but I won’t give up yet!)

But I had intended all along to move to a real blog engine, just as soon as I had time. And here it is. Viola. Enjoy.
(Wow, that background’s a bit bright, isn’t it? I’ll tone it down when I get a chance…yeah that’s better.)

It looks like they’re using a bittorrent engine for their download client, so I don’t understand why it would start over from scratch.
At this point, I’ve turned off the NCSoft launcher and am installing Age of Conan. Its download patcher is better. Yeah, I know. That’s sad.
To fill the time during the neverending download, I’m still playing NWN, STALKER, and a bit of Fallout 2.
STALKER is one of those games I stopped playing because of some life event, like moving or something. I’m enjoying it a lot, again. I think this game has the most realistic artwork of any game I’ve played since Redneck Rampage. (Don’t laugh, RR is an believable, immersive “you are in the south” experience, especially the first few zones.) STALKER is also one of those games that starts out hard and gets a little easier as you figure it out… Also, the descriptions are translated in an entertainingly bad way. In several places, “inefficient” is used instead of “effective”. :D
And all this talk about F3 made me start another Fallout 2 character. I just discovered the killap’s restoration project patches. [Gratuitous Heart Icons Here] (They also include a load of fan-made patches and bug fixes. (Over 1000 bugs! Yeek.))
