Massive props to both of you.

My training is continuing pretty normally. Did my first 100km week on my bike a while back. All this rain around sydney has really put a dampener on my outdoors training though. I ran two long distance runs over the weekend just because i don't know when i will have the opportunity to be outside again.

NEW ARCHER!
The latest ep was great.

I'm also watching Homeland mainly because Damian Lewis is awesome.
I'm about halfway through the season. I'm having the same problem with this show that i had with Rubicon (a similar espionage-terrorist drama). It just seems that the characters make stupid decisions to progress elements of the story. Claire Danes' character is notorious for this.
Yeah, sure. Why not. Any takers for Catan? Or Rico?
The negativity in this thread reassures me. After seeing the 9.5, i was worried that i would be in the minority. The flaws in the game are just too overwhelming.

Keep fighting the good fight PALGN users.
I just started watching Rubicon

It's a conspiracy drama thats got canceled after it's first series. It's enjoyable without being over the top. It's still a little rough around the edges.
I'm going to post my new years resolution for my training early. Over the past year i have dropped back on my running and have taken up a lot cycling. With the gift of a new bike over christmas, i have decided to ride the 100km Sydney to Wollongong and aim for a good time.

So here is to all the PALGN gym'ers/trainers/weight-loss'ers new and old. Good luck with your training in the new year.
I traveled a lot in the last month which subsequently means a lot of reading.

Coincidently to what was posted above, i read both Slaughterhouse Five and Cat's Cradle by Vonnegut. It was really great reading. Mixing black humour, cynicism and dystopia is always a winning read for me.

I also read The Pearl by Steinbeck in one sitting. It was enjoyable but not nearly his best.

To top it off, i finished We Need To Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver. Gripping, intense and brutal, it's the story of the mother of a teen high school killer who recounts her own life and the life of her son. I haven't seen the film, but i have been told that it was quite well done as well.

I'm currently reading The Lucky Country by Donald Horne. Considering it's age, it's interesting to see how much of it's criticism is still valid in modern Australia.
The most dissapointing games i ever play was Devil May Cry 2

After playing the original to death, DMC2 was an agonising experience.

I recently played Golden Sun: Dark Dawn which tarnished another series that i adored.


My wish is that Sly 4 turns out to be a good game.

TF2
Re: Fallout: New Vegas (1 year ago)
^ Heck yeah. Been waiting for the DLC bundle.
Re: The Walking Dead (1 year ago)
A little excited about the Walking Dead Giant?
Just reading some Jack London. Call of the Wild and White Fang were genuinely enjoyable reading.
Congrats JP. I could sit and watch this all day:

Got hit by a car yesterday morning while riding my bike to work. Feeling pretttttty sore today
Swell. Looks like they tweaked the combat system to allow for assists. I was still hoping for sprite similar to the GBA games, but i think i can settle for what is on offer.
Less flair, more noir please.
Just received a package from Zavvi with games that i am a little late to the party for.

I have Pokemon Black in my DS and Dead Rising 2 in my ps3 (to be followed by Red Dead
Just started watching Game of Thrones. I'm not one for Fantasy as a genre, but this show was very engaging
Pokemon Gold on GBC. I have always wanted a Natu, so this looks like the play through for it.
I've just started 'The Master and Margarita' by Mikhail Bulgakov. A little bleak Soviet reading to brighten the day.
I just finished 'A Confederacy of Dunces' by Toole. It was excellent.
I also found Radiant Dawn to be disappointing. I am contrasting them to the GBA fire emblems which were far and away the best srpg i have ever played.

I'll also throw in another vote for Masamura. Best wii game out there.
What terrible looking sprites.
They also made secret agent clank...
Earthworm Jim on SNES.

Cow Launched!
^ I find that news worrying, especially considering their past 'achievements' .

Colour me worried but interested.

KT the problem is that if you enter it for the first time in a few years your seeding doesn't carry over and you have to run in the blue bib section ('general' starting group or whatever sponsored name they want to call it this year) this is where the first 2 k's or so is sucky and you spend all your time weaving in and out
if you do under 75mins in the blue section then in the next years race you go in the red section and that's where you can get a much cleaner start
so yeah if you have to go in blue this year don't expect too much from the crowded start, it will kill 10-15mins or so from your real time that you'd get in red
The time that i ran in the blackmores half last year qualifies me for running in the opening group.
Is anyone planning to be doing any running events in Sydney over the next few months (c2s, blackmores, etc)?

As my year to date has been plagued with injury and my aim of getting a tri done are now slim to none, i thought i would give myself an esteem boost and run the ciyty to surf. All my running mates say it's very crowded and hard to maintain a good cadence in the first few km, but i have been left floundering without a goal. Will i be seeing any other good looking PALGN'ers there?
Seeing Stephen Schneider debate climate change with skeptics on Insight on SBS. What an excellent rational and informed speaker.
