  1. Oh god I miss Le Tiss :(

    There's no fucking way Ronaldinho's goal is the best ever, van Basten's bicycle kick was far better than that. My personal favourite might well be Mendieta's volley from a corner, or Seedorf's insane 45 yard scorcher. Here's a collection of the best, with lots of Maradona.

  2. I can't really envisage a time when the content providers will be doing anything other than attacking all kinds of piracy, but I do agree it's already a lost battle. Within a decade, perhaps, there will be fast enough internet available to the average user that almost TV quality rips of TV shows will be on people's hard-drives minutes after the programme ends. Then we'll have real-time streaming of programmes in the same quality. I'm sure the move to HD and the awareness of image quality will slow this process, but it's inevitable.

    What will this mean? I'd imagine that there will be massive profit in those providing bandwidth, especially when legitimate content downloading is popularised. It's entirely possible that the entire medium of TV will suffer, and almost inevitable that advertising revenue will.

  3. See, I like the album and there aren't any really poor songs, but WHERE'S THE FUNK? 'Megalomaniac' probably managed to become my favourite Incubus track since 'Summer Romance', but there's very little on this album with the energy of it. I like 'Rogues' and 'Light Grenades' itself, and 'Love Hurts' is a good Incubus-y love song, but there's not quite enough impact for me on the rest of the album. Sure it'll be good background listening once I've got over this phase of just focusing on the music, but it's not made enough of an impression yet.

  4. Lol, Cox had Glenn Close's hair.

    'Twas a good episode if nothing that blew me away. Probably my biggest laugh was the part when they were dancing to 'Bye Bye Bye', but there were some good Janitor moments too. The pregnancy overload is a little odd, but sure it'll lead to something interesting down the line. I find myself really liking Kim's character, JD's had some excellent love interests and I'm particularly enjoying her.

  5. OK, the new patch is a killer. I'd hear about some contract bug in OFT but it seemed to be uncommon enough. Then I offered Tevez a new contract, which he rejected because I tried to drop a few grand off his demands, and suddenly he's a free agent when he had a year left on his contract before! The fucker's gone off to Real Madrid and I'm enraged. Been forced to reinstall the game and start a new save, since this game is now irreparably fucked. Grrr.

  6. I'm watching Dom Joly's Happy Hour right now. I've been really enjoying this series, despite the often lame scripted moments. They actually get some pretty damn entertaining moments from almost all the places they go, mostly because of Joly's ability to say absolutely anything.

  7. Nooooo, Ed Begley Jr! I was just thinking how awesome this episode was for him and he's gone. Otherwise, was a very good episode. Mo was a bit of an obvious culprit, though - I wish they'd gone to greater lengths to disprove him in the same way as they did with Mercer, then the partnership would have been a better reveal, but that's just a small niggle. Roll on the next act.
