My Traumatic Tiny Life

Back in the prehistoric internet days I wandered into the text-only MOO called LambdaMOO. All went well for the first few minutes until I moved into the kitchen. "Hi there!" said a friendly resident. Then he put me in the microwave and cooked me.

Strangely enough, I have never participated in a MMPORG since then.

(picture is K.K. Slider from Animal Crossing: A friendly game where no one would EVER try to cook you. Though they may plant a pitfall in front of your door.)

Good Reads

Good in an entirely addicting kind of way. Enter in the books you've read, rate them and possibly review them. Friends do the same. You get an e-mail every time your friends update their page and vice versa. Soon you are winging 100+ lists of books back and forth, creating new lists of to-be-read books but having no time to read them because you have to add JUST ONE MORE BOOK to your list.

Try it. If you dare.

London walks podcasts

To go with the Bertie Wooster walk, I found a website that has oodles of London walks podcasts:

I picked the Regents Park walk as we'll be staying nearby. No all dog alert included.
