Last night while avoiding doing anything that might resemble being productive I stumbled on Eversion - a free to download old school style platformer. It came out at the end of last year, but it’s new to me. The looks are cutesy, but we start with a quote from H.P. Lovecraft and a warning that reads “NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN OR THOSE WITH A NERVOUS DISPOSITION.” This is, of course, a joke, but it ends up being a little closer to the truth than I originally thought. Looking at the readme file reveals the story, which is as follows. (No joke.)

princess is kidnapped

you must save princess

Well they get points for being concise, at least.

The rest is over on my n-philes blog, which you should go look at because you love me.

The n-philes staff (that includes me) did a write up on what we thought was the best of E3. It’s actually a pretty fun read, I think, so you should stop being dumb and read it.

A while back I started a cooking blog called “/cooking”, cleverly named after the url of http://adamglasgow.com/cooking.  The very perceptive of you might have even noticed a link to it on the right hand side of this page. I never mentioned it here before because frankly I had done almost nothing with it, but today I posted a pretty awesome tasting recipe for spinach and mushroom manicotti and a guest recipe by Steve for fried tofu and stir fry that looks tasty as well. If this keeps up, that blog might actually be worth looking at sometimes. If you’re interested in writing a guest recipe for the site, let me know either by contacting me here, commenting, or getting a hold of me in some other way. I’m sure we can work something out.

The very perceptive of you might also have noticed the new flickr sidebar over there on the bottom right. This will show off the newest uploads to my flickr page, which will usually be my picture of the day, as discussed a few posts down.

My Klonoa Wii review, Pangya PSP impressions and Tales of Monkey Island impressions, all over at n-philes. It’s an exciting life that I lead.

I wrote some stuff up about the three big companies’ showings at E3 over at n-philes, check it out if you feel like torturing yourself.

I’m sure pretty much all of you already know this, but I’m headed out to LA tomorrow morning to cover E3 for n-philes. If you’re bored/nerdy enough, you can read all my EXPERT REPORTING from there. To tide you over, you can check out my “picture a day” thing me and some friends starting doing. See you all next week!

EDIT: I previously had the photo-a-day photostream posted here, but it started to get out of control, so here’s a link to the set instead. I also added my latest photo-a-days to the right hand side of the page.

Is almost certainly one of the best albums ever made. Quit not owning it. That is all.

Plans for today? Scratch up everyone’s underwear, pee on a few computers, and lick all the fruit in the house.

Architecture. You know what’s even more awesome? Blowing it up. Legos wouldn’t be as fun if you didn’t get to destroy your creation afterwards, and I daresay that SimCity wouldn’t have been as popular if it didn’t include the option to have Godzilla ravage your perfect metropolis after you get bored of it.

You should definitely check out the link above, but here’s a pretty good montage of demolitions to whet your appetite. Could have used better music, and some of the editing is dumb, but there’s some great footage here.

This one just went down in Houston a few years ago. How did I not hear about this? Is there a mailing list I can sign up for to be notified of future local demolitions? I feel like I missed out.

Pretty much ever since my house burned down I’ve been staying with Justin and John (a few friends of mine), all for the unspoken cost of me occasionally cooking when I have the chance. They’ve been incredibly wonderful and have never made me feel like I was in the way, even during moments when I probably was. I owe them a lot, hopefully someday I’ll find a way to pay them back. (Sexual favors??)

But man, they need some new kitchenware. Today I tried making eggs over easy with this.

This is, no joke, the best tool for the job in this house. Needless to say it was a complete disaster and I ended up having unintentional scrambled eggs instead.

My job for the day, I’ve decided, is to go to the store and buy a new spatuala for the house. A small step toward bringing my good friends out of their current neanderthal state of living.

(To be fair they’re not neanderthals, they just don’t seem to ever cook anything that needs a non retarded spatula.)
