While the X-Files ran forever, sadly The Lone Gunmen lasted one short season ... Like Firefly I rewatch these more than my x-files... The last episode was magnificent ...

Probably the most successful general that no-one knows outside of history buffs was born today - Albrecht von Wallenstein... He had the ability to defeat the other military genius of the 30 years war, Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden, and the vision to realise that the war which depopulated huge swathes of central Europe could go on for decades. For arranging armistice talks, Ferdinand II, Holy Roman Emperor had Wallenstein assassinated and the war continued its grisly work for another 14 years...

Morning all.
It is raining it's arse off out there. This probably isn't news to many of you, as it appears the UK is enveloped in dark cloud.
TVblog - more Disenchantment. The elves are the best thing about it. This was followed by an episode of TNG, and Q was back on the Enterprise.
Amigablog - managed to setup a bootable SD card as a faux-hard-disk for my Amiga, ON MY MAC. Yep, I'm a pretty big deal... Boots up on a real Amiga fine, but games installed via WHDLoad seem very flaky indeed. Further investigation is required.

I have been entrusted to secure the signature of an important document by a bigwig in the States, and it's not going well.

You need to get on a flight to the states with a briefcase handcuffed to your wrist. It will contain the aforementioned important document and a cheese sandwich.

And maybe some pants. It's a pity Concorde is no longer in service. Though Greta Swedish Child and Amipal's missus would disagree.
n.b. I'm not saying Amipal's missus is Greta whatshername. It's my terrible use of the written language.

I have been entrusted to secure the signature of an important document by a bigwig in the States, and it's not going well. I'm not surprised. Documents do not write their own signatures, whether a bigwig requests it or not. Hullo! I am doing no work today. I might have a shave before I watch 'WWII - Battles for Europe' on Yesterday at 10am. amipal - take note. OTTM: Still got builders fart-arsing around outside. Drilling things and swearing.

Donald Trump has gone up in my opinion after mocking Greta Funberg. I mean, I despise everybody equally, but she can fuck right off. The definition of an irritating little shit (No offence Lenny, that looked like a fantastic steamer).

Surely the big problem with Greta Thunberg is that she is pretty much right.

Let's not forget that MrTiddles has himself done a lot of good work reducing his neighbours' carbon footprints, one moyder at a time.

However, if you want to do a 'Climate Protest' then do it in a fucking field somewhere (Woodstock style) and not stop me conducting my lawful business in London. I'm a bit pissed off with the builders today. I'll have to go in the worry tent for a bit.
