Is there actually anyone out there still reading this thing? Seems like no-one looks at LJ anymore.

Cant stop playing it...fucking ace! :)

I still cant make proper posts or comments...all I can do is use messages, applications and chat.

Anyone else having problems with it today? I dont seem to be able to post or see my profile.

Ok just finished and I have to say that was pretty mindblowing. I dont think I'll ever look at life in quite the same way after that. Ok the actual story is just background to the messages in it and lets just say the ending does kind of drift a little far into fantasy...but the psychology, the ideas and the main 8 points of the book really do stand and I must say are quite uplifting when thought about in thier entirety.

Now its time to read the companion book, which goes much deeper into how to apply the thinkig to real life :)

...has anyone here read it?


I'm 2 chapters in and finding it very thought provoking...

The 1967 Spiderman cartoon is actually pretty bad isnt it? lol Entertaining though in that bad/good way. Still gonna get them all for the collection.

The 90s series is definitive though, no other Spidey series touches it as far as I'm concerned.

I've really eased up on buying DVDs lately, but I still intend to get the rest of the superhero cartoons and the rest of Star Trek TNG though. Oh and more Alf Garnett...that was one class comedy series.

Episode guides for remaining specials and 3 series 5 epsiodes in here! Not sure ho reliable they are though.

...who broke Facebook then? ;) It was probably me overloading it lol

It seems the Krazyhouse in their inifinite wisdom have finally decided to give us a proper goth night a go and 'Anti Kulture' will be starting Sunday 27th Spetember. Ok Sunday isnt ideal but this is a test run and if its popular will be moved to a better night. Its a proper goth night so that means trad goth/ new goth/ industrial/ ebm /New romantic/ new wave/ alt 80s etc....not a a goth metal night as you might expect. I dont know whats changed thier minds as they've snobbed this sort of night for so long. Maybe they've seen gap in the market or seen another club doing similar and decided to cash in...maybe its because eclectro is popular now and metal is getting more industrial again. I dont know but either way its good news and I for one will booking the Monday off work to go. Its worth it!

It was actually rather good! Watching this you can see not only the huge influence on X Files, but also on Supernatural. Only watched about 6 of them but damn good despite the 70s-ness of it! Vampires, werewolves, Hindu demons, slasher robots, bone eating aliens, Jack the Ripper...its all there.

Also watched the 1930s version of 'The Invisible Man' yesterday. Absolutely brilliant, but unintentionally hysterical at the same time. I've never seen such a useless bunch of police. Claude Rains crazed performance was simply brilliant.

Watched Watchmen on Blu Ray last night. Much added to the experience. Its actually a very good film even though it seems oddly paced and the ending is a bit so so...it just seems to slump off rather than build into something big. I really must see the animated version sometime to compare. The story isnt anywhere near as hard to follow as some people make out.

Also watched 2 gems of British Horror in the shape of 'Horror Express' (a 70s film about a frozen demon on a train starring Christopher Lee, Peter Cushing and Telly Savalas) and 'Island of Death'...a kind of 'Peter Cushing does Quatermass' film. Awful monsters in it but it was the 60s and the story more than made up for it. I'm suprised these 2 films arent as talked about as some of the others from that time, as they probably 2 of the best ones.

I feel the need of another night out coming on again...you know I might, just might give the k another shot. Its something to do after all.

I've orderd the compelte original series of 'Kolchak: The Night Stalker'. Only saw one or 2 of them on TV years ago, but I remember it being pretty good.

You have been warned!

Not quite sure what to make of her....she's different and very 80s influenced so I'm wanting to like her music. I dunno though it all seems a bit too chirpy lol. I do like 'In for the Kill' though.

Spoilers of course

I've had a load of 'delivery failure' noices sent to my email over the last 3 days when I havent even sent any emails :S Whats more I'm getting emails from myself with links that dont work. I'm guessing the account has been hacked but I dont see how, as I havent told anyone my password. So it looks like I'll have to change the password, I just hope thats enough because I'd rather not set up a new one, I like what I've got.

Have to say that was pretty spectacular. I dont think adult sci fi on TV has been that good since Nigel Kneale was doing it.

Some spoilery thoughts under the cut.

...I endulged in a couple of orgies of satanic worship ;)

No thats not as exciting as it sounds lol...I watched 2 great 70s horror films based around devil worship. Firstly 'Race with the Devil' from 1975. Good stuff for those who havent seen it think 'The Wickerman' meets American road movie and you're pretty close. I'll not give too much plot away because if you havent seen it, its one of those films thats better if you dont know much about it but it starts with 2 holidaying couples witnessing a black mass and develops from that. The second was one I've never seen before called 'Blood on Satans Claw'...this film looked as though it might be pretty bad when it started, but quite the opposite. Its all based around a strange skull being found in a 17th century village and people who come into contact with it falling under the influence of a local satanic cult led by a rather stunning looking young Linda Hayden, and growing a demon-like claw and skin...also of interest to Dr Who followers is it also stars Wendy Padbury who was Pat Troughtons assistant, Zoe. Lots of taboo breaking in this one and generally an underrated horror gem.

Also watched 2 other horrors this weekend...The Howling, which has aged pretty well (not seen it since I was 10) and Revenge of Frankenstein, which wasnt bad, but not my favourite of the Peter Cushing Frankenstein series...I much prefer Curse of Frankenstein, Evil of Frankenstien and Frankenstein must be Destroyed. I still havent seen 'Frankenstein Created Woman' or 'Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell' yet though.

Still havent wathced parts 4 and 5 of Torchwood yet, have already been spoiled about something major in it though. Its a good job I'm not worried about that sort of thing.

I've been watching Vic Reeves Big Night Out today....still absolutely bloody insane and hysterical even now! Utter nonsense, but my humour...completely :)

Another external hard drive knackered...almost 500gb worth of music, film and TV on there gone simply because the electric went off. At first I thought it was my entire PC and I shit myself because it wouldnt boot up. It turned out it booted up ok once the external drive was removed and it wont connect up now at all.

I know I should back stuff up onto disc, but it kind of defeats the object of having all that extra memory and buying 2 to have a back up of the same stuff seems like money wasted. I'm really not sure whether to bother with getting another one now, as they just seem so fragile.
