I smashed my best friend repeatedly round the head with a sledgehammer, then once he collapsed I took it to his abdomen, then I choked him until he could get up no more. Sound like fun? Damn right it was! Smackdown 2 is the best multiplayer game in the world! Let's see, locked friend in coffin? Yes! Threw nightstick at friend? Yes!! Launched myself, arms flailing at friend from the top of a cage? Yes!!! Oh the joys of youth. My girly also joined in for some hot threesome action in the ring!

Cannonball Run is one of the few films that I really want to see at the moment. Honest.
Wow, would you look at that.
One of my favourite games, and one of my favourite films, both have Dom Deluise in them. He does some of the voices in Toonstruck, and plays Captain Chaos in Cannonball Run.
Dom rules.

I watched loads of films too. Mothman Prophecies, Swordfish, Withnail & I, and tonight, Red Scorpion!
Oh! And completed Toonstruck, one of the best games ever.
Just watched Cannonball Run again. It gets better every time I watch it.
Yesterday was my nephew's first birthday. He got this really cool push along car thing he sits in. One arm on the steering wheel, with his other elbow on the door.
Had to cope with all the mongo relatives too. "Ooh, I could watch him play all day, what a timewaster."
Morons.
Then what, the day before that I went bowling, then for a meal, then got drunk at someone's house and started watching I'm Alan Partridge before I fell asleep.
That's about it.

This is what I've done so far this weekend:
Compare the importance of three reasons why Britain
joined the 'Scramble for Africa" in the years 1868-1902
The 'scramble for Africa' was rightly named. It was a sudden rush for territory by European countries who initially saw the African continent as a place full of natural resources and a source of income for their economies. It became more of a race to get the most territory however. So what are the three main reasons for Britain's sudden interest in the continent? A British Liberal named Hobson claimed Britain saw Africa as a "base for investment", whereas J. Gallagher and R. Robinson, who authored the book, Africa and the Victorians, said that Britain started to invade countries in Africa for "strategic reasons." The other reason given is that Britain was pushed into the struggle for territory because of the tensions with France and Germany.
One of the main theories for Britain's interests in Africa is the economy. Historians like Hobson believed that Britain was using Africa to boost her economy by exploiting Africa's resources, like cocoa and rubber, and also to sell Britain's own goods in Africa. Hobson believed that the slowdown in the British economy was due to the unequal distribution of industrial profits in the country, and that is why financiers decided to invest their capital abroad - although they'd be facing a greater financial risk, the returns were greater. Basically, the government took interest in setting up colonies in Africa to protect their investments. However, Hobson's theory wasn't just applied to expansion to Africa. Britain had more interest in investing in the United States, Canada and Latin America.
From the early 1880's, there was increasing interest in Africa from German and French traders. This threatened British companies who relied on Nigeria's palm oil, used in soap and to lubricate machinery. Rowntree and Cadbury also relied heavily on Nigerian cocoa. Malaya was also an important source of the raw material, rubber, used for tyres and electrical insulation.
Yep, History homework!
