I'm BAAACK!

After a transcontinental move and my second Mac PMU meltdown I have returned to blogging. Look for Pictures ala 2 B Da Man.

Civilization III Ate My bLog

I lost it to a video game. I asked for Civilization III for the holidays. It is the perfect blend of Risk and SimCity I was hoping to find. It is a great deal of fun to play. This is the type of game I like.

Trouble is, each turn takes about a minute and there are about 500 turns in a game. The first game I won was 7 hours, 48 minutes and 13 seconds (468.2 minutes) and 511 turns. When you win it tells you how long you spent on the game. Nice feature to remind you how much of your life is consumed by this diversion.

As a result I have not "bLogged" in months.
