Still alive

I am still alive, just not seemed to post much recently, not sure why.

Anyway, some bits for me to remember in the future. Mainly what I am watching/planning at this time.

Music
She and Him Volume 1. Really good album, just very easy to listen to. Zooey has got such a good voice.
The Ting Tings, very nice first album.
Johnny Cash, got a best of album, did not realise how many of his songs I have actually heard of before.

Just spent a while on You Tube, going through ACW songs. Split from there into some folk music.

TV
Veronica Mars. Living are showing the whole of the 3rd series each night at 3:30 am, just get the V+ box to series record it, and watch the episode the next morning. Really loving it, can not find many faults with it at all, which is kind of strange as I have got the impression that the fans did not like the 3rd series. Hope they will repeat the 1st and 2nd series in the same way after this one finishes.
Gossip Girl. Blake looks too old to make Serena believable, I have a hard time telling the blokes apart, but I do like the show. Not sure how long it can go on for, but for now I will carry on watching it.
House. Always good, not sure if I really like all the new assistants, but they are a minor point of it.
Greek. Watched the first one, I will keep at it for now.

Wargames
Fire and Fury. Got last Sunday at Partizan, looks quite good. Going to be done in 6mm, just going to have to find some ready made bases in nearly the correct size.
The Great War. Also got last Sunday, only had a quick glance at them, but do not seem too bad. Not sure what scale to look at, as far as I am aware no-one else has any WW1 figures so I have got a free run on that. Maybe 6 or 10mm. Base size is roughly the same as that for Fire and Fury.

Just checked, looks like East Riding Miniatures do them, 1 inch square bases.

Been playing
WW2 naval. Our rules. Still got to sit down and have a total rethink on them, lose the mark of points bit and have effects totally based around explosive effects of weapons hitting.
Pulp Fiction. Bob has been putting on some games on a Thursday night, mostly they work, but it does lend me to wonder if a better way of doing it would be to give each player one decent character with some abilities, and quite a few add on minions with no skills. Allow each player to really get to know one character, and then put in the advancement rules to allow them to build up other characters. Sort of a dungeons done on mass.
