I was listening to my Franz Ferdinand CD on the way to work this morning and it struck me how much I like their music. The vocals are kind of raw in some places and amazingly gentle and warm in others. Their lyrics are simple and repetitive, but they either have an awesome sound engineer or they play their instruments like geniuses. And while their lyrics may be si
Dude, there's a demon in your house!
OK I just read the whole interview and it was longer than 5 minute and Moore never answered anything. Here is the link to the Moore Interview with O'Reilly: Uh, yea. Didn't you see the link at the bottom of my article?
It took me a while to see the hidden image... Link
Oh good...well, then there's no need for the phone number, is there? You'll be ahead of the game as it is. Yea, just hope that there aren't any cute girls around.
I was thinking more along the lines of chemical or nuclear warfare or if my car broke down on a deserted road at night. I would be one of the first people to know if nuclear warfare broke out.
Frisbee golf is similar to regular ("ball") golf in that you are attempting to get a frisbee into a "hole". I love frisbee golf. I have a friend in the country that has an 18-hole course on his land, and the public park down the street (about half a mile) also has a course. Much fun to be had for all
A few years ago I was asked to write up a Statement of Work (SOW) for a contractor that had a 3-D Animation system. This was supposed to be a one-time activity, since this type of work was not part of my job description. I was asked to provide high-level requirements that would tell this company what we wanted animated, and how we wanted it presented. The result of
Can I have your number in case of catastrophe? Oh sure. I give it to you, you give it to your friends, they give it to others. Eventually I've got everyone calling me up to save their damn cat from a tree! Let's not forget my third hobby. If I'm too busy with the others then I'll have no time for what is
Change is the spice of life Variety is the spice of life. Change is the simmering that brings out the flavours.
Expecting the full depth of Asimov's book on the screen is unrealistic. Accept the movie as a quality sci-fi action flick and you will not be disapointed. And of course there is the point that Asimov's writing encourages technology and offers a positive message of human interaction with robots, while th
“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.” - Ambrose Redmoon
My hobbies include saving the world, battling super villains, and wooing the ladies. Oh, and resisting the urges of my darker side, thus preventing my descent to the sourge of all Earth.
I think one of the problems for these people is that he was never the man you married (or the woman you married). When thinking back on life we have a tendancy to filter our perceptions. Chances are your spouse was never really like how you imagined. When we want to think about "the good ole times" we tend to ignore any of the bad. When we think about "the hard times" we tend to neglect the good. Our memories are very rarely an accurate depiction
you had the same kind of hardcore fanbase working on explaining these issues away There have been many cases in Episodes 4-6 and 1-2 where the fanbase has rationalized Lucas's laziness. Also, many authors have explained away inconsistancies and lazy plot lines in the Star Wars novels. One example o
We've been discussing the next Bond over here: Link I had not heard of Farrell being considered, but I agree with you that he just doesn't have the Bond style.
Bill O’Reilly has been asking Michael Moore to appear on “The O’Reilly Factor” for some time now. Moore as declined to appear until O’Reilly viewed “Fahrenheit 9/11” in its entirety. Apparently everyone’s requirements have been met, because Moore sat down with O’Reilly at the Democratic National Convention to exchange questions. O’Reilly opened with the f
I give my trust freely-once. Once you break it, it takes a lot of work to earn it back I'm pretty much the same way. I will trust you until you prove to me that I can not. And once that happens it is very hard to gain my trust again. In fact, I can't think of any time where I have trusted someone who
But I'm also willing to put money on being able to outscore most people on any standard American intelligence measure. I don't really consider standardized tests as an accurate measure of a person's intelligence. In fact, I don't know of anything I would consider an accurate, unbiased measure. At least not
I think Dennis Miller at the DNC vs. say Al Franken at the RNC would be a funny set of columns for USA Today Agreed. I think that would be highly entertaining.
I heard Coulter speak once, and found her extremely annoying, ignorant, and not really clever at all. That's pretty much what I've gotten from her TV appearances.
It is a shame that Bronsan is hanging it up. As a fringe fan of the James bond series, I thought he did great as Bond. His replacement will have some big shoe phones to fill. Agreed. Pierce was pretty much perfect for the role. I remember thinking that years ago when Remington Steele was on the air. <b
Gerard Butler was already in a Bond movie - he played Leading Seaman - HMS Devonshire in Tomorrow Never Dies. Yea. A friend and I noticed that today when we were looking at everyone's filmographies. <TD cl
I was kind-of bullied as a child once, when I was around 8 years old. There was a particularly stupid young boy with whom I disagreed on a regular basis, let's call him Dick (I really do not recall his real name). So one day I was walking through the neighborhood with a friend and his younger brother. This Dick and three of his friends swoop down on us from a nearby hill. My friend and his brother run. Dick and his friends ignore them and start ch
As someone who has been threatened with jail time for the suggestion of installing a particular screen saver on a classified (Secret, not even Top Secret) computer, I have to wonder the same thing.
