As of 4pm EST today I too will be on vacation until July 8. Tomorrow I head out to Martok's Land of Plenty on my annual baseball pilgrimage to watch a few games with the indefatigable Minnesota Twins. When I return I plan on diving full bore into Company of Heroes 2, continue my Van Helsing game and start a new campaign of Fall of the Samurai.

VACATION BYOTCHES!!!
Aw, crap.  I forgot that was this weekend. 


Gus, I can't apologize enough, but I do have to work.  My coworker already requested the weekend off, so I'm "it".  Frak me.  :(

It looks like a rainy Canada Day weekend here in Halifax  :( so perfect for reading, movie watching and gaming  :). Since I just pulled the trigger on Distant World Shadows my plan is to finally dive into this game and to continue my Panzer Corps and Shogun 2 campaigns.

To all going on your well deserved vacations I say, "Enjoy and please stay out of jail if possible". Skyrim's captured my head again and it's not letting go. I just took Merida's Beacon to her and an un-dead ass kicking is to follow. I just can't say no to a giant statue with great breasts.

I just playing Last of us on the PS3.  Hopefully I'll get some time on this this weekend, as well as maybe some DCS action and COH2.

Somehow I missed Fragile Allegiance when it was released back in '97.  It seems to be a deep, and somewhat different, take on the SF4X genre, and since it's only $3 from GOG, I thought I would give it a shot this weekend.

That, and now that I'm back on my feet, more Lock 'n Load testing.

Aside from the ones I've already mentioned, nothing immediately comes to mind.  Like I'd said earlier, my culinary & drinking experience in the Cities has been sadly limited, especially compared to the amount of choices available to me.  :-[ 

Actually, there is on other place I've since thought of, which is the 5-8 Club.  Their burgers are simply orgasmic IMO!  I'd not mentioned the 5-8, however, because the nearest one to downtown is in south Minneapolis (and I don't know how far out of the way that would be for you and the guys), plus it's a popular destination, so you might end up waiting for quite some time, (depending on just how large your group is).  Also, it's a regular restaurant, not a bar, although they do have a good selection of beer available. 


Oh, and speaking of beer:  No matter which places you guys go drink at, you are required to order at least one Blue Moon, preferably with an orange slice (it usually gets served that way by default).  You'll thank me later.  :)

Sorry to hear that bob.  I work all this weekend as well (aside from tonight), so I sympathize.

Got in on some Warlock multiplay tonight. Good stuff.
