Here's an interesting drink I made up last night. It's called "Bloodshot" and you'll know why in a minute. First, the ingredients for this vodka martini:

3/4 Svedka
1/4 Pearl Persephone

Other ingredients not to be mixed:

Red fool coloring

You can use any vodka you like, just make sure of the following: Shake well with lots of crushed ice! Make sure it's mixed up really well and use chilled martini glasses, if possible. You want the drink to be as cold as possible.

Once you've poured the mix into your glass(es), take your red food coloring and let loose a single drop of the red food coloring in the martini. You'll notice the food coloring sort of suspends and makes these funky vein like entrails in the middle of the drink. Hence, "Bloodshot".

Last night I finished Ico. Considering I had started this game Tuesday or Wednesday this week, I'd say it went by pretty quickly. I enjoyed it.

If you've played Shadow of the Colossus before Ico, you'll notice that the games are visually and interactively similar, but quite different in terms of your "mission" during the game. In Shadow of the Colossus, all the puzzle and "work" in the game was in figuring out how to and then defeating each colossus. Riding out to each colossus from the central tower was merely an exercise. In Ico, all the puzzle and "work" in the game was not in any singular bosses that you had to defeat, but in making your way through the various stages. There is a main boss at the end of Ico, the Queen, whom you also have to figure out how to defeat. But, I'd say she was far less troublesome than some of the colossi.

Anyhoo, another game bites the dust.
