Piippola Village Idiots

Last week when was lying in bed with the cold, so I made a big cup of tea, buried myself on the couch and went to see what Piippola villagers in  have been up to. I’m talking about Animal Crossing, City Folk, the computer game that has a never ending storyline, days and seasons passing [...]

Watchmen, Stormtroopers and Pon Farr

I pimped-up my desk at work today and quadrupled my work efficiency – this photo features my brand new stormtroopered workspace. As always, Chuck Norris faithfully watches over us in the background. Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits. I have been really looking forward to the film adaptation of Alan Moore’s and Dave Gibbons’ [...]

Bachelorette pad with style

The Chaos A.D. is spreading all over the flat – the renovation is at its worst now and only habitable place left is my tiny bedroom. I say habitable, but when I inhale I can feel the rattling of sanded filler in my lungs. Rock’n’roll. Just how sexy is my laptop / fridge / kettle [...]

A rogue night-elf

I finished watching all of The Big Bang Theory tonight. Brilliant show. How I would love to game with these guys. Sheldon: I’ve got The Sword of Azeroth! Leonard: Get the sword, Sheldon! Help Rajesh! Sheldon: There is no more Sheldon – I am The Swordmaster. Howard: Leonard, look out! Leonard: Dammit, we’re dying here! [...]

IE7 is giving me a headache

Favicons work great in every other browser, but after a long pointless fight IE7 (www.ie7.com still makes me smile.) still refuses to view it. This is rather odd, since .ico file is a windows image file format to begin with. I have this simple one liner in the header.php file, so there is not that [...]
