Joy!

Happiness is, after a BSOD computer crash and the computer not wanting to boot, finally managing to poke the F2-boot options into making the computer start up again. So I don't have to restore from the system recovery disc. Meaning my porn folder is saved!

Friday Board Games 2/5/10

Since I'm on vacation I went to the Board Gaming night down in Mesa. Played some Power Grid, where I still lost but it was do to bad strategy and not being totally clueless about the game. Then Wits & Wagers which I most definitely hate now. Both because of the near impossible trivia aspect and how badly I did at betting. And then we finished with Small World where I took second thanks to my first squishing everything with Hordes of Giants then conquering with Dragonmaster Orcs. In fact if Noah hadn't pulled Were-Trolls on the final round and used it to smash my ranks I might have beat him in scoring. Which is probably why he went after me...

In the Loop

A dry comedy set just before the start of an invasion of an unnamed Middle Eastern country. Focusing on various politicians in the British and U.S. government. Has a very original The Office feel to it. I kept being dragged out of the movie though by my desire to take a few of the characters and smack their heads together until their brains were pudding. Still James Gandolfini as a dove Pentagon general was very nice...
