Steven Spielberg is set to produce and Peter Jackson to direct the 2009 live-action motion picture film version of Hergé’s beloved Tintin books for Dreamworks . Actually Spielberg and Jackson will each direct one with a third director to make the final film. So, it’s a trilogy to be taken from the numerous comics Hergé […]
Okay, I am rarely moved to tears. This one got me. What a fantastic piece, and it’s a very sad story — bittersweet and poignant. You’ve got a three-year old with a terminal illness and a bunch of hockey players. It proves some athletes can do good things for good people in unfortunate circumstances. A […]
I read this blog post today and it prompted me to write my own. The aforementioned blog discusses the merits of Heroes vs Lost. We all have our opinions, and as such I feel obligated to deliver mine. But first let’s discuss the shows. Lost has and always will have a cooler concept. The whole […]
Never take joy in the death of another, but in this case it’s a little hard not to. The world, today, is a better place than yesterday. Now that Mr. Falwell, found of the obscenely named “Moral Majority”, has popped off, perhaps some of his compatriots in religious intolerance will follow along. I hope it […]
Once again, Miami has the worst road-rage of any city in the USA. As a driver here, I can tell you … wait? how dare you cut me off? I’ll kill you, you son-of-a bitch … where was I? Oh, yeah, we have the most insane, impossible drivers. Anyone who lives here and has to […]
In a previous post I wrote about why I wanted to own a casino — mainly because only an absolute idiot can lose money while owning one (that idiot being Donald Trump). Most of my point can be found in my previous post, but I have more numbers to drop. I got my MGM/Mirage annual […]
In yesterday’s post I posted the “friend test” which is both amusing and revealing at the same time. A number of my friends have taken it as well as some people I don’t know quite as well. I assumed the better the friend, the better the score, but clearly this isn’t the case. Since I […]
I’ve created this test for my MySpace page, but it supposedly works in a blog, so I’ll try it here and see if anyone tries to take this test or not. I will pass no further commentary at this time.
Okay, I’m not fond of posting YouTube links, and this one’s priceless — if you prefer to zip over to YouTube directly, here’s a direct link. The volume’s a bit low, so you may want to crank it up. This is an unbiased video too, so it matters not if you’re pro-PC or pro-Mac, this […]
The last numbers that generated this much excitement were “4 8 15 16 23 42” from the hit TV show Lost. What is it about the code “O9_F9_ll_o2_9D_74_E3” when coupled with “5B_D8_41_56_C5_63_56_88_CO” that has everyone so riled up? A fascinating question for the uninitiated. That code (at least through 1 May 2007) would unlock any […]
