Omega Race! I loved that game back in the day. I think I even had the VIC-20 version. My absolute favorite was Choplifter, though.

Saw Transformers 2 just now. I wasn't planning to see it since I wasn't fond of the first one, but they had a thing at work where they arranged for us all to see it, so hey. And, hrm. Well, it could be just because my expectations were rock bottom, but I kinda didn't mind this movie.

Though there certainly was a lot of it, wasn't there!

A quote from an IM from last night:

"I want to be your friend, I want to hang out and talk and all that other stuff. I'm just not sure I want something more then that."

Well, so much for that...

--Joe
I tell you, folks, being just the "good friend" is getting old real fast. Just saying.

I know where you're coming from, Joe, as that's how pretty much all of my relationships wind up.

Does she actually want to stay friends? Because if she does, it may be disappointing in the short term, but hey, friendship is nothing to be sneezed at.

Unfortunately, I can only think of a couple ex-girlfriends who gave me that line and actually meant it.

Well, she never was strictly speaking my girlfriend (one movie date does not a couple make), so I believe she's sincere about the whole friendship thing. And I can take responsibility/blame for turning her into a TOS Trekkie too.

I don't think either of us actually thought of us as "going out" or anything like that, but I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't hoping things would progress in that direction. Ah well... at least this all got out in the open early so there's no bad feelings. And she's still a lot of fun to LARP with. :)

Good ol' Rock. Nothin' beats-- ohhhhh...

The spammers are thick on the ground today.

Let us finalize our plans for video gaming on the 4th, as July is here.

I'm planning to bring my HD monitor, and my PS3, and I can bring 2 HDMI cables. Ben, you're bringing your 360?

I'll bring both my PS3 controllers.

Are we going to have a bunch of little kids this year? I don't think the Nadzams are coming. So that leaves Peter and possibly Edward? I don't want to crowd the kids out of their play space downstairs...

Jon A.

I can bring my 360 or my Wii. Whatever the group wants.

--Ben

I think most of the kids are teenagers now. :-)

--Matt

Ed and I will be in York Friday through Sunday. We'll probably be back Sunday afternoon, so I think we'll be missing the party. Catch you next time.

Jen

Ben: I think Sue wanted to see the new Ghostbusters game, so I'd bring the 360 instead of the Wii.

I'll also be bringing my brother Jeff and his wife Amy.

Jon A.

Righto! Ghostbusters is fun.

Ben

I don't actually have much in the way of multiplayer games for the 360, but I'll bring Red Faction, Burnout 4, and possibly a Dynasty Warriors game at least.

-- Mark

Multiplayer. Leloo Dalass Multiplayer! That's what it is, right?
