It feels like a while since I wrote something for this blog. You will probably have noticed I haven't been writing for my blog much lately nor have I done any more translations. The reason behind that is that I am very much preoccupied with my full time job these days. That said, I still play games and watch the odd Anime show... Just not as...

This time I decided to go for the Cowon iAudio 9 since I've read Cowon's players produce the best sound...
Been a long time since I played a decent RTS and I'm glad Blizzard's brought one back.

Jim Raynor is out to start a revolution to release...
"No Smoking", "No Food or Drink" notices on public transport is pretty common but it seems they've added a new one to the collection here in Scotland... "Turn Your Music Down".
