Seen on a poster today. It's not what you'd think.

“Nintendo's Perrin Kaplan appears to have no sympathy for aching gamers though, stating that "if people are finding themselves sore, they may need to exercise more."”

I got stuck behind a van from some online poker firm, with its slogan: “Online Poker at it's Best” (emphasis mine). Since I couldn't remember the brand name I did a Google search - but I'm now no wiser...

Raph's got a list of all the Hugo winners and is way beyond the number I've read - but I wonder if I could Mooch my way through the rest...

Uploaded the all-to-few other photos I took in NYC last month, plus a whole load of boring car photos from my track day today (wherein I drove a car very slowly in the mud as well as several others at what I though were scary speeds around a real race track until I was schooled in the actual meaning of fast by a real driver [110mph around a corner!]).

A few sets to delineate things:

• New Yorks pics
• Pics of Lucy the cat (most also found in the NYC set)
• Car Pics

Genesis were the first band I saw live...

Ah... back from two weeks in the Big Apple. Got to see a few people I haven't seen in a while, but missed a couple of others who were sadly unavailable.

Didn't really get to see many sights, since I'd already done most of the touristy stuff when I lived there - though I did get down to the Brooklyn Museum which was having a 9/11 exhibit. Dressed up as Alex from A Clockwork Orange for one Hallowe'en party (albeit in his later years when he'd really let himself go). That's a real bowler hat though - not some plastic thing. I got it from a hat shop on Fulton street which also sold the greatest pimp hats ever. I also went to another party as a football hooligan - but that was just me wearing a Leeds sweatshirt.
