This may come off as a little bit conspiracy theory-ish, but I honestly think doping is rife in every top level sport. I mean, just look at Wimbledon - you see people put in gruelling performances when it's ridiculously hot, then as early as a day or two later perform at exactly the same level (or with very little dropoff). The commentators always wonder, "how do they recover so fast, nobody recovered like that in my day!" Hmm, I wonder? It was similar in cycling, and we all know how that's turned out - everyone at the top for years was doping. I mean, Lance Armstrong's statement of "If you wanted to win the tour, you had to be into doping" says it all. Now we hear Powell and Gay fail a drugs test in the same day, personally, I wonder how long it'll be until it all gets unraveled.

I refuse to believe that Jessica Ennis gets that fit with the help of illegal substances. If I found out she got that lovely arse through anything other than hard work and dedication, I'll be gutted.

Haven't progressed from Civ 4 yet!

Civ 4 is so very good...probably isn't a game that I've played more over the years. I might get Civ 5 in next year's summer sale; sounds like the new expansion makes it much better, and that won't be discounted for a while.

Sole purchase thus far (and probably overall) was the Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition for $5, because, well, $5. Also upset to see that FTL was on sale for $1.99; I paid a whole $3 for it a couple months ago, dammit!

And just like that, I'm starting a new game on New Vegas. I'm so impressionable.

Got CIV 5 plus all expansions except the brand new one for £7 on a steam sell.
