Back to the Beginning - Part 1

Comics

Today’s comic is part 1 of a new storyline.
Goz finally got his MAME cabinet running and it is really cool. Track and Field is an awesome arcade game.

FINISH HIM!

Comics

Sometimes I base comics on events in my life, then there’s today’s comic.
I had the typical holiday: presents, food, battle for world domination. K-Dog, Goz and I played a cuthroat game of Risk. Goz won, but fortunatly this was “Lord of the Rings” Risk which means Goz currently only reigns over Middle Earth and not [...]

Star Trek 10: So Very Tired

Comics

WARNING: Today’s comic contains spoilers for Star Trek Nemesis. You have been warned.

Today I took my last two finals and turned in my final programming project. I am now officially done with college, officially.
I going to get a lot of game playing done in the next couple of weeks while I look for a new job, most likely Beatmania [...]
