I was thinking of writing some video game reviews today. I could tell you all about “Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon 3: Advanced Warfighter” (Ubisoft) or even “Fight Night Round 3″ (Electronic Arts) and how much fun I’ve been having with those titles despite their respective — often glaring — weaknesses and limitations…
I could also talk at [...]
phik gave me a good laugh this morning with his post, I never get those 5 hours of my life back. I vaguely remember seeing some exchanges between him and vlad in irc last night while checking the computer between episodes of Zatoichi. The scrollback log seemed to go on forever so I glazed over [...]
Apple’s February 28th keynote is over and they’ve announced only one of the products I was interested in and a couple of products I have zero interest in, and actually find kind of insulting.
The Intel Mac mini has all the stuff I’d hoped for including an optical output and a dual core processor option. It [...]

This weekend was nice. The entity known as “c+b” came over Sunday night and we dined on bird and chocolate pudding cake as [...]

As summer winds down, the advertising begins for this year’s batch of new television shows. One show that’s been getting a lot of press is Prison Break airing Monday nights on the Fox network at 9PM EST. Last night was the two hour “pilot” and we invited friends over to eat some noodles and watch [...]
dria and I watched “The Machinist” last night, the directorial debut of Brad Anderson. Borrowing perhaps too much from influences “Memento” and “Insomnia”, the movie feels a fair bit like those other, probably better psychological thrillers.
