Remember my Heathrow experience?

August 30, 2007

So if you recall, I had some experiences in Heathrow on my way back from Chennai with regards to some lost luggage. Fortunately it all was returned within a week of my getting back to the US. At the time I was slightly annoyed. Now, after reading this, I’ve decided to thank my lucky stars… [...]

I just turned 50 (posts)!

August 23, 2007

I just noticed this as I logged in and saw that I have finally done 50 (mostly comprehensible) posts. Thanks to all who are reading this iteration that mainly started as a method to report back from India on my trip. I’ve also started to look at my stats page as well. This isn’t the [...]

There is ONE thing I don’t like about the Fantastic Four movies…

August 21, 2007

It’s been bugging me for a while, and I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, but although I’ve defended the Fantastic Four movies for a while now, there is one tiny little flaw. Or one huge flaw, really… Doctor Doom. Victor VonDoom doesn’t talk like Victor VonDoom historically should. In the movies he’s all [...]

I share my podcasts with YOU!

August 15, 2007

As mentioned earlier, here are the podcasts that I currently subscribe to. Maybe there’s something in here that you’d find interesting. Oh, and by “web page” that generally means a link right to their RSS feed page: The Comicology Podcast iTunes link | web pageThe Penny Arcade Podcast iTunes link | web pageFanboy Radio iTunes [...]

I should tidy that last post up a bit…

August 15, 2007

Looking over yesterday’s “item” dare I say about the Not-So-Fantastic Four, I’m thinking it needs to be re-written slightly to tighten it up a bit. I’ll be up for the challenge this evening I hope to re-write and drive the point home even more. I’ll also get up that list of podcasts that I listen [...]

The Four Celebutards of the Apocalypse…

August 14, 2007

First and last in a non-continuing series – for extra points, spot the one that hasn’t gone to jail and the one that hasn’t been in rehab. All of them know each other, all of them are connected to each other through at least Paris Hilton. No wiki links in this one…because frankly…who cares? First [...]

Happy Birthday to…Meh…

August 12, 2007

I have somehow managed to survive another 365 days on this planet without going totally mad. This definition of clinical insanity is left open to the interpretation of the individual reader. However, my nice, relaxed 4 days off in a row had a somewhat rocky start as I completely forgot that I had arranged to [...]

My new sketchbook

August 8, 2007

Almost forgot to mention that I did get my Alex Ross sketchbook yesterday from ML. Thank you again for standing in line and getting this for me! Apparently some are flipping them on eBay and are getting upwards of $100 for them. Like I’d ever do that with mine… It’s a small book, but worth [...]

In which Mr. Jobs makes the .Mac service useful?

August 7, 2007

Not quite. Yes, it integrates with the new iLife ’08 better, I guess. A new photo gallery feature, which I am sure is actually very nice is added. But really, all they seemed to do is just throw more storage at the users. Not that more space is anything to sneeze at. But really, Steve [...]
