Testing offline blogging editors

This post is made with another editor (ecto) which I have downloaded and have a 21 day trial period.
The photo was taken on a walk my wife and I made in the Geneva countryside towards the end of September (a very nice walk by the way).
So more about me.
As you know i went [...]

Cancelled

A few months ago I resubscribed to Everquest II. I already had a few characters from my previous stint in the game and was curious to find out how the game had evolved.
I’m not even disappointed, more like disinterested to tell you the truth. I haven’t logged in in over a month and don’t really [...]

Some nice memories though!

Wynderful (September 2001 - June 2004) RIP

My first posts on the subject are probably lost forever in the move from Livejournal to my current independance here and my use of Movabletype.
I used to play a game called Asheron’s Call and had a character called Wynderful. I played her to level 91, which was a mini-achievement and spent many hours (1 month, [...]
