Sublime Text: Purchased!
Previously I talked about how I was going to experiment with moving all of my text editing to Sublime Text; this has been completed. While I still have TextMate installed I only use it to keep a “pristine” copy opened when checking changes/versions, or copy-pasting information. The ease of having one editing platform on every…

Defense Grid – You Monster
Expansion usually lack a bit in story, at least compared to their base version. Cross over games usually fair even worse. Thankfully, “Defense Grid – You Monster” doesn’t fall to either of these. I won’t say it’s better than the base story, but I will say it’s a great addition to not only the story…

One of these days I should write up on all the Robins and Batgirls…

Revenge of the Titans
Revenge of the Titans is great gem of a tower defense game. The upgrade path means you get some flexibility with the possibility that you’ll tech yourself into a corner and not be able to get out. That makes it all the more exciting once you finally figure out how to beat that next level with the…

People on the Train
My daily commute involves a lot of train travel; from the Metrolink to the Metro Red Line. Being the introvert that I am I don’t talk to most people on the train. However, there’s about six people that sit around me on the Metrolink pretty much every day. Today I introduced myself to the Sheriff…

Hoping the 49ers will show in force and take this one. Sorry Ray Lewis but someone has to lose in these games, and I hope it’s your team.
