git update

 OK, so it's taking a while, a lot of effort, but... I think I am getting to grips with git. Still got a long way to go but its doable.

Traveller Update

Well, we are in the third adventure, set in a world of asteroids, mining and... other things. This Traveller supplement was published 16 years ago, supporting Mongoose Traveller 1st Edition, and is still relevant. At the conclusion of the second adventure, the Travellers (aka Player Characters) were rewarded with action figures of themselves.

More Traveller

 I ran a brief Traveller session this week. My OCD kicked in and I turned up late - having door to door salesmen come round twice did not help.

 I've started a new adventure, published by Mongoose Publishing, and it has quite a bit of set up work required before the action gets going.

Tomorrow will be all about studying "Learning Git".

Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.


This is a long film – about two and three quarter hours and it kept my attention throughout. I’ve always preferred M.I. films that have an ensemble cast and this film has that in spades. Yes, Tom Cruise does get to run around the roofs of tall buildings and ride a motor bike but that was integral to this story. As always, the M.I. team are roused into action by the need to acquire a gadget / MacGuffin – in this case, the ultimate information weapon. Definitely worth seeing.

Good Omens

 One of my meds, Aripiprazole, could have been named after a demon from Good Omens...

 Finished "Learning Modern Linux", currently deep in "Fluent C".


However I bought this book - "Writing Down the Bones" - a book about writing - today.
