GTA better than real life?

first, a correction. the bear found the snoopy nail clipper. i didn't. ever my hero.

so GTA IV.
the radio stations that you hear when in the cars you stole are pretty cool. yeah, so they loop the same 10 or so songs each, but they're good songs. and their talk radio is disturbing but so hilarious. it even approaches well-done satire at times.

the bear (or shall i call him nico?) has acquired, in various shady ways, a few living spaces. can i say that they're all pretty freakin nice? the one with a roof deck, complete with outdoor fire pit, looks pretty close to an outdoor lounge space i recently designed for a project. in reality, we own no property, much less a handful of awesome ones. most of the bear's properties are modern to contemporary in design, too. i think i may need to take screenshots somehow, to show off our fancy pads.

but then again, living a life of crime or being married to someone who is would stress me out so badly i'd probably be dead already. plus i am so not slick nor am i street smart, so i think i'd be dead for sure. that mean i wouldn't be able to enjoy the radio or the apartments/lofts/houses.

ahh, the route home is not longer ALL RED on my google maps traffic. au revoir!
