Priorities-ish

[same_difference]

Today the Pope died. I was brought up as a Roman Catholic so I should care, but to be honest I'm just glad he died peacefully and didn't suffer, which is what I hope for everyone to be honest.

In fact I'm more annoyed that I game I was looking forward to isn't any good. The Bard's Tale comedy RPG turned out to be Dark Alliance with some humour, but not as much as you'd expect. Also they went too far with the items to money thing. You have no inventory so anything you pick up is turned to money, unless its better than your current equipment, in which case it is equipped and the old stuff if turned to money. Also no inventory means no healing items means no instant healing when you need it. It is voiced by Cary Elwes (male lead of Princess Bride) though, which does leave me kind of curious.

Bad game more disappointing than person death. Say's a lot about my, well, priorities I guess, can't think of the word I mean.

Hey, I was watching Shrek on telly, and it only had ten minutes to go when they stopped it to tell us that the old man had died. I'm entirely with you on that one. Then again, I was brought up half as an orthodox Christian and half as an atheist (the latter won eventually)...

I'm more concerned about the political implcations of this. I was quite happy with settlement of the pop being alive and unable to speak. Now they'll elect a new one and he'll try and meddle in politics again and tell people they're not allowed to use condoms so that they all get AIDS. Hmmm...

(Sorry, I'll shut up now.)
