How to: See what is in iCloud on your Mac.
Apparenly since OSX 10.7.3 the Daemon is sleeping until an app requests iCloud access.
1) Start an Application on your Mac that uses iCloud to start the Daemon. I used Memo from the Mac AppStore.
2) Open Finder and go to ~/Library/Mobile Documents/
All the files will be in this directory. If the directory does not exist, go back to step 1 and launch Memo.

I just finished Bastion. I'm not sure what the big deal is. The gameplay is nothing special. The best part is the narration. The most surprising part is that 21.9% choose The Beginning while 16.4% choose The End. I chose The End the first time. Then I replayed the last level to choose The Beginning. Maybe the most surprising part is actually the fact that I replayed the last level to choose the opposite choices.
        I bought a bunch of games during the Holiday Steam Sale, so I don't have a GOTY yet. Isaac is still the frontrunner (see my previous entry). Once I play my backlog, I'll pick a "winner." The only thing I'm sure of is that my GOTY is not Red Orchestra 2. I did not get my money'$ worth from that one. It's also not going to be Super Mario 3d Land or Mario Kart 7. That system (3DS) is a huge disappointment. Hopefully this year we'll get some worthwhile games. <cough>Diablo III</cough>

I'm trying to come up with my pick for Game Of The Year. If I only counted games that were new to me this year, my pick for GOTY would be Braid. However, Braid came out in 2008 (Xbox 360) / 2009 (PC) so it's not an appropriate choice. There are still a few months left and I haven't played some quality titles like Battlefield 3 or Arkham City yet, but currently my frontrunner for GOTY 2011 is The Binding of Isaac.

I keep forgetting to do this, so I'm going to post it now. Here are my Game of the Year picks for the last two years. The links take you to their pages on Steam.
2009: Batman Arkham Asylum
2010: Super Meat Boy
Batman Arkham Asylum is on sale at the moment for $7.49, so if you happen to see this today, go buy it. I think anyone who likes games will find something in Batman to enjoy. You should only get Super Meat Boy if you like HARD games.

I posted some new setlists and removed some dead links from the tape trading and links pages.
I don't think I posted this video before. Here's a video of me climbing the Presidential Traverse in Yosemite last year.
