Even criminals are getting stupider...

Award for most fail robbery of 2010?

On Tuesday, the Natwest round the corner from where I work was having a delivery of cash from its security provider. the security guard was attacked with a hammer in an effort to steal the money from him. The men made their getaway in a car.

Security guard was fine. Shaken but completely uninjured.
Total value of money stolen... £0

¬¬

Idiots. How can you plan a robbery and fail to steal a single solitary thing? I know they say crime doesn't pay... but ffs.

I dunno what's scarier. That such a robbery happened in this pokey little town or that the criminals were so inept.

Droplitz

Took a brief moment away from my clan duties on counterstrike to play some Droplitz.

I rock at Droplitz. Ranked 23rd of 2143 on the Good Samaritan board? I can deal with that. :)

So what else? I feel like I should be saying something, you know? Had one of those epicly busy days at work. Not often the boss lays down some cash to get an extra pair of hands on board so when we had two extra staff in today you can imagine what a day it was.

Oh and my folks brought me some yummy flavoured cigars back from Greece. Big phat Hannibal style ones. Already smoked my way through a vanilla. Was fucking awesome.

Seriously. Smoking is so underrated. Russia's got it right. Smoke, drink, be merry and help get the economy back on track.

Leave the panicking to India. ;) Seriously, will it be funny if they spend all this money on the games and no one turns up? O_o

Also, while I'm discussing the world. Wtf with the submachine gun rampage in Germany? Some woman shoots a cop, a doctor and a child? O_O The paper's over here didn't cover the full story so Ches, fill me in.

Mmm, what else?

Linkin Park. That's what else. So they brought a new album out, and they decided purposely to avoid their traditional formula. You know, the template driven, radio friendly 'nu-metal' that made them famous. As Chester put it, verse, pre chorus, chorus, verse, pre chorus, chorus, bridge, bridge, chorus, out.

Well... I kinda expected big things. You know, seeing as how Mike's other project, Fort Minor, are amazing. Turns out, not so good. :S

Here's hoping they return to their good old formula for the next album. It might be music by the numbers but it's what I like about them.

If it ain't broke...

News!

Ok, sorry for not being here for a while...
Wait, why am I apologizing? You lot are never here anyway. :(

Ok, firstly, the crazy neighbour has been served with a harassment writ. She and her family basically have to completely avoid me and my family and our property. Forever. :D Hooray!

I'm also working on another video project for the Rooster clan which involves me having to learn how to use Sony Vegas. :o That's bound to be exciting.

I also bought VVVVVV which is a cute little video game in an old skool styley. It's quite difficult though and makes strange fluids leak from my brain.

I also revamped my Twitter page which I intend to try start using again.

Oh and I had a geekgasm over the Portal 2 trailer. Tell me this isn't awesome!
