jen and i went and saw “superman returns” on thursday night. it was pretty good, but a little long. it probably should have spent more time in the editing room. It was still pretty cool.

it is hilarious. i’m totally going to get a car bed too. jen says no, but i’ll hide it in my closet.

in europe. i’ve heard rumors, but dismissed them, then i saw the real site. http://www.gunthernet.com/ there is a real nice pair on the front page. sunglasses silly. apparently this guy is all the rage in europe, if you spend a little time watching the videos on his website i think it will become quite obvious why. personally, i’m going to wait until it comes out on vhs, since i don’t have a vhs player anymore that means i’ll never have to watch it again.

philter is on his way out of town for good. he’s moving with his girlfriend to seattle. last night we had some last drinks with him to send him off. today, however, that leaves me feeling kind of crappy. even after breakfast i’m tired and my stomach feels a bit loose. oh well, lunch is only 2 hours away. that’s it for now, don’t want to get busted posting at work.

ok, so i wouldn’t have believed it, in fact i didn’t. i couldn’t understand how plugging a flash drive into your windows vista computer would actually make it faster. then i read the “faq” on the subject, it makes perfect sense. i have to admit i have been working on the machine and it seems fine, i also have to admit i was pounding on it by having three different browsers, ms word 2007, html-kit, filezilla, ssh and windows media player all running at the same time. it does make a difference and hats off to you microsoft for giving us yet another reason to keep carrying that usb drive in our pocket. now if only notebook, desktop and motherboard manufacturers will take this into account and build an internal or protected slot where i can put the thing and leave it….. Asus? Tyan? who will answer first? it will probably be emachines or something…

so i decided to set up a new blog. i’ve been missing having a place to post things. here it is, and i find i’m no longer missing it. i’m probably going to try and keep this blog to be my own, i’m also thinking about starting another one and allowing any authors to write to it. hopefully that works out, i’d like to try and keep my friends talking in some fashion or another, as we slowly but surely get spread out around the world. well, that’s it, i’m going to bed to watch some smallville.
