Vanquished! -- 8:41 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

My 36th level druid finished Diablo II and the Lord of Destruction expansion back tonight by beating Baal into bite-sized morsels. Now I have to decide if I want to keep going in Nightmare mode or work on a different character.

I bought the game on October 1 and finished it on November 11. That's a lot of playing, especially when you consider that I was gone for at least a week of that. I think that's the fastest I've ever completed any game--at least any game of this length. Totally addictive.

J.t.Qbe comments: Yow, A.T., have you done anything else? I'm still in Act II, though I've been a little busy over the past week. I suspect that my Diablo II time is going to be cut short with this week's release of Wizardry 8 and this week's Civ III sale at Best Buy. So many games, so little time. You know, though, a new baby can actually add to your gaming time. "No problem dear, I'll get up and hold the baby. Really, I don't mind!"

NFL Week #9 So Far -- 8:38 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

With a primetime game and a half left, Eeyore and I are tied at 9-4. Not at all bad. It will be even nicer if the Raiders and Ravens win as expected. My Lions are finding more heartbreaking ways to lose. I'd hate to try to put that mess of a locker room back together again.

Which Distribution for You? -- 2:43 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

All the Linux distributions out there can make things confusing for people wanting to make the big jump to a better OS. DistroWatch has an article giving a brief overview of many distributions, covering the big players (like Red Hat and Mandrake) and some of the bit players as well. There's not tons of detail, but it does help clear up what's what. Thanks Slashdot.

New Episode II Trailer -- 10:11 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

George Lucas has released a second mini-trailer for Episode II: Attack of the Clones. This one is called Mystery. That link has a number of mirrors for your perusal. Thanks Evil Avatar.
