It’s been kind of quiet on the blog lately… Not that there hasn’t been things to blog about – I had an amazing birthday last week – but I’ve either not had the time to sit down and actually write something, or when I have had the time, I’ve been faced with a rather bad case of writers block.
But, I would like to at least get something down – so here goes. Might not be the best piece of prose, but at least it’s an attempt at chronicling the events of my Birthday Weekend.

Some mornings just suck…
Dunny [9:17 AM]:
Got a user who can’t access any network drives – either says the system doesn’t have enough memory, or that he’s not allowed access
Dunny [9:17 AM]:
Depends on the drive trying to be accessed
Rosenberg [9:17 AM]:
hang on
Rosenberg [9:17 AM]:
not locked out
Dunny [9:17 AM]:
Okay
Dunny [9:17 AM]:
I’ll have him reboot
Dunny [9:18 AM]:
If that doesn’t work, he’ll call
Rosenberg [9:18 AM]:
And we can tell him to reboot again
Rosenberg [9:18 AM]:
harder this time
Dunny [9:25 AM]:
He rebooted
Dunny [9:25 AM]:
The computer imploded
Dunny [9:26 AM]:
I mean, literaly imploded
Dunny [9:26 AM]:
There was this loud sucking sound, and the lights flickered a bit
Dunny [9:26 AM]:
Then there was a pop
Dunny [9:26 AM]:
Now he has an exposed spatial singularity in his cubical (more…)
As promised, the Weekend Update.
Small note: Still having a few issues with the pictures, will upload them when I get home. Just wanted to get this much done.
Ready? Here we go!

There are a few things on needs before being able to use the Netflix Watch Instantly feature on their Mac:
Which of those two do you suppose I am not known for having?
Other than a few mild issues with the quality of the video due to buffering and home-network issues that seemed to be resolved by simply allowing the movie to play for a few minutes, and a few technical problems caused by not having Windows updated correctly because I use a fucking Mac, I didn’t have any major issues getting this working.
What I managed to take away from this is a renewed enthusiasm for the Netflix service, and a burning desire for the damn XBox update to happen sooner.
Demo on XBL and PSN
It’s been a while since the last time I was excited about a new game hitting – I think MGS4 was the last game I actually got all excited over.
Star Wars : The Force Unleashed is one that I’m really looking forward to. Not sure if I’m exactly excited about it or not, but I am really hoping to be.
Tonight I’ll be downloading the demo and giving it a spin – and, since it’s on both XBox Live and Playstation Network, I figure I’ll download them both, and compare the two. I did this once before with Burnout: Paradise, so I figure this might be a good chance to try that again.
As a bonus, and just because I’m a total dork, I’ll LiveBlog the whole thing right here.
So, stay tuned for the fun.
Maybe LA is wrapping the PS3 version of the game in an XBox emulator… YOU READ IT HERE FIRST!
