QUOTE OF THE DAY : Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity. - General George S. Patton

SONG OF THE DAY : Louis Armstrong - Kiss to Build a Dream On.

LINK OF THE DAY : How is your hand eye coordination?

For it so falls out
That what we have we prize not to the worth
Whiles we enjoy it, but being lack'd and lost,
Why, then we rack the value, then we find
The virtue that possession would not show us
Whiles it was ours.


Bleh...

I haven't had the time or the inclination to update the site in a while. I, your humble narrator have been busy... I guess.

Well not really, but the weather is nice and I've been spending most of my time outside, instead of in the computer room. Gone is my winter pallor, instead my face has colour. Red at first, after I fell asleep on the hammock for 2 hours, but now my skin is full of vim.

I wrote that last week.

Now it's a week later.

My monitor was fried by lightning, so now I have a new sweet 17" LCD flatscreen. Beautiful. I also acquired a job. Grocery boy at Loblaws ! WOOO! Life is good.

So, it looks like George Lucas has Special Edition-ized his first film. THX1138. One of the first films to ever portray a Dystopian society, it's a brilliant work of technical directorship. Now old Georgie's Director's Cut makes the film into what he originally intended it to be. Whatever qualms you may have with Mr. Lucas over the Star Wars prequels, forget them. He's a gifted director and editor. Speaking of editing, this trailer for the THX1138 Director's Cut is damn slick, it was edited by Lucas, so there you go. Must see.

And with that, I'm spent.
