quis custodiet
So I saw Watchmen tonight. I enjoyed it. I was a little worried going into it given the mixed reviews currently up, but I it surpassed my expectations. I think visually it was spot on for the most part, and in a few instances it even presented a better image than the comic. That is not to say that it perfectly captured the images of the comic, ( Read more... ) -
Insomnia
I had great difficulty falling asleep last night, or more precisely, I was woken quite suddenly and my jerk of a sympathetic nervous system refused to grant me respite.
I mentally dictated a 1,000 page memoir; I promptly forgot it all. -
Election Goodness
So I got my absentee ballot the other day. Fairly normal stuff for the most part until I get to Governor and find out that one "SUPERDELL" Dale Schanze is running on the Libertarian ticket.

My computer is basically a high functioning typewriter, in that it has taken ascetic vows of not connecting to the internet (one of the newer vows the pope created in order to appeal to the hip young kids).

3. Pinback - Boo

So I am going to bed, watching a Futurama, and I am reminded of those (old?) commericials for flat screen tvs, back when they were the hip consumer item, where there is a couple who can't figue out where to put their tv in their room and they end up putting it on their ceiling. And I am thinking that that would be sweet.
