It has been a very long week.  Lay offs have started at work and it looks like there will be a second cut before the end of the year.  Morale is pretty low over all at the company and people are on edge now as we finish up the year with few jobs in site.  It has now been seven years since our last layoff period, and this one was expected as jobs continued to finish while few new ones started.

I think my job personally is safe, but if we go through another wave of the same size cuts I will worry for my job, there may not be enough people to justify my position.  I might finally be back in Portland, who knows.

Now that it is time to drink some 12 year old scotch and unwind.

I think I've hit a roadblock with Uncharted 2 in chapter 22, the game really just turned into an endless grind of enemy killing at this point.  The game is neat, but not actually fun to play.  Strictly linear, without any false paths, it's all about the moving through a level to advance to the next story point.  And the enemies wearing full tactical body armor in the middle of nepalese temple, oye vey, pick up a Pistole to defeat their helmets.

Not a must buy, but a worth a look.  What is odd, is many people believe this is the best the PS3 has to offer. >.<
