How was Carrington's weekend, you ask?
Well, he nabbed himself two count 'em two Infocom text adventure games for the vintage Apple IIe that's sitting on his kitchen table: Hollywood Hijinx and Bureaucracy, both in near-mint boxes with complete sets of "feelies" (the goodies that came with those classic games). Welcome to the short shuttle, destination Nerd Heaven.
And he set up a recording studio (ok, it's just a mic and a mixer in his bedroom, but leave a guy his rock star fantasies) for a comedy variety show he'll be doing as a weekly half-hour podcast starting in a few weeks.
Plus he saw Oldboy, which is a wonderful (if shudderingly creepy) film. It's been called "mind-blowing" by critics, and his mind was indeed blown. Honestly, you could hear the wind whistle right through it.
Finally, he posted a blog entry in this annoying third-person voice as if he was some sort of unedumacated sports star or vacuous Hollywood actor slash hand model. So, there's that.
A very excellent weekend indeed.
