Carving An Egyptian Sandstorm

Green and Yellow sausage-dogs decorate this coffee cup of mine. Well ... the yellow one has red polka dots and the green has purple polka dots. Yellow on top on a blue background. Green below on a yellow background. And they're separated by something that looks like a flattened cog pattern of aquamarine and red. Amazing.

And inside is this Mocha coffee thingamajigger that's actually pretty good - came from one of those long thin stick packets that look like sugar sachets, the long, stick kind, obviously.

The hiatus has been long and it has truly been ... bleak? Well ... not entirely. It could be far worse. I could be dead. I could be crippled. Or I could be - k, I'm leaving this topic. On to the more positive.

Yes! The Xbox 360 has been revealed. Well, the screenshots were out last week or so anyway, but it's still interesting to read about it. That excitement that comes from the unpredictability of the next generation of consoles. Oooh, the posibilities - your imagination runs wild and you gasp in wonder at the first videos featuring the sharper new graphics, stunning real-time lighting and shadows and gory wonder of Condemned from Sega. The irony makes me feel sick. Is it ironic? If so, why? Please - let me know. This could be a good debate for the intellectually inclined gamer or general moron even.

I grow tired of saying "Hello" and "Hi" - yeah, like I have to say it to SOOO many people every day, uh huh - but moving on with this, I've decided to come up with new words. The obvious ones are "Yello" and "Fi," but if you want to be a bit more adventurous, try out "Sigh" and "Why" or even just ... "Jumblejop" - it'll take anyone by surprise.

JUMBLE! JOOPPPPP! There's a budweiser commercial 50 years in the making. I reckon it'll take about that long for the word to become as widespread as the plague.

Hottest day of the year is the 12th of August. Supposedly. Out here at least. Note to self: Don't be here.

Till next a car rolls on a distant dune.
