Lately, I had been having trouble running Firefox properly on my Mac G5. For static sites, it wasn't too bad, but for multimedia sites like youtube, it was hell! Whereas it used to be smooth all of a sudden, it'd start to slow down like crazy. Tried rebooting my Mac, turning it off then turning it on again, to no change. I even started to wonder if ( Read more... )

Today I found a copy of Looney Tunes Golden Collection Vol. 5 for $30. Of course, I had to buy it, since I only have the first 3 vol. (out of 6) in the series. And like always, it's worth every penny (60 cartoons in total). And among the bonuses, there's a documentary on Chuck Jones. I started watching it and had a feeling I'd seen it before. No ( Read more... )

As those of you who are on my Facebook FL know, I've been sick this week. I caught my parents' flu bug over Christmas and since Saturday, I've been feeling woozy on-and-off, having a sore throat in the morning, being tired and all. I stayed home on Monday; did go to work the rest of the week, but it wasn't always easy. Fortunately, it seems to be ( Read more... )

SingStar Queen is coming out in North America!!! I was sure it was going to be a Europe-only release, which would have made importing it quite complicated (thanks to the NTSC vs. PAL issue). In any case, it was rated by the ESRB (rating: Teen) and it's coming out in March, according to Amazon.com/.ca (of course, no word about it on Sony's North ( Read more... )

I've been away for the past 4 days, as I spent 2 days at my parents, deep in the suburbs and then off we went in the countryside to visit the rest of my family for 2 days. We ate way too much, but it was fun chatting with so many people i haven't seen in forever. And yesterday, we visited my great-aunt Jeanne (my grandmother's sister). She used to ( Read more... )

At last, Nintendo of America replaced its crappy MyNintendo program (aside from the free copy of Zelda Collector's Disc, I don't recall it ever being useful) with the Club Nintendo program that had been in use in Japan for some time already ( Read more... )

I decided to make the plunge and get a PSP in January. If the current bundles are still available, it will be difficult to choose between the God of War bundle and the Ratchet and Clank bundle. The GoW one interests me more because I love GoW and think that the red PSP is gorgeous, but the R&C one has a 1GB memory card and a downloadable game (not ( Read more... )

Yesterday was our latest CCJVQ swapmeet. I didn't expect to see many people there, since the meet was held exceptionally on a Sunday afternoon (usually it's held on a Saturday evening), it had been postponed once before (was originally set to Nov. 1st until we realized there was a schedule conflict). There's also the fact that the owner of the ( Read more... )
