Lister

Lister: What kind of milk are we using now?

Holly: Emergency back-up supply. We’re on the dog’s milk.

Lister: Dog’s milk?

Holly

Holly: Nothing wrong with dog’s milk. Full of goodness. Full of vitamins. Full of marrowbone jelly. Lasts longer than any other type of milk, dog’s milk.

Lister: Why?

Holly: No bugger’ll drink it. Plus, of course, the advantage of dog’s milk is that when it goes off, it tastes exactly the same as when it’s fresh.

Lumines score: 85K+
I managed to get a new Lumines highscore tonight. I usually end up getting screwed during the “Just…” skin which features quick-dropping blocks but I survived it this time with a relatively clean board.

Next target: 100K!

It includes a thoughtful comparison of Lumines and Tetris.

Sony to produce fewer PSPs.
Possible reason: “Companies go bankrupt with too much stock – even companies like Sony but never with too little. We will continue to be cautious…”

Bad data on TV episode torrents?
Someone’s intentionally doing it and judging by the IP blocks reportedly used, it’s a coordinated effort.

Darth Vader: United fan.
Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
