Best lines (which is all of them) from that great 90s sitcom
MRrrrreorrrng-mrrrowrrr.
[i am iron man]
da. da. da da-DAA.
Seriously though, this looks awesome.
Hopefully, Favreau picks up the pace and makes it a tight movie. I know next to nothing about Iron Man. So I don’t know how neat this is going to be. Perhaps that’ll make it less sucky-disappointing when I do watch it.
I’m saddened by this six year anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
Have we learned anything from them?
I have a feeling that we decided, in anger, to do something. Anything. And it was being led by president fucktard that we haven’t gotten anything done.
Bin laden is still out there. He’s taunted us again and again.
But all our government can do is say, “Dick Cavett!”
Can’t we do anything right?
School has started. Taking two classes. It’s going to be an interesting year.
Both are reading and discussing classes. The first one is a business school class, ethics and social responsibility. I’m glad to know that they like to teach it to the MBA majors, but the corporation is an entirely different beast. The second is software engineering maintenance and software evolution. Sounds boring, but that is also my job. It’s boring, too.
Meh. I’m not complaining. Yet.
My license is expiring and I have to get it renewed. I’m just wondering if I should keep the mustache?
While I may shave it off, I have yet to tire of it to do so.
It will be another 5 years before I get a new one. What will having a mustache do when someone looks at it years from now?
Steve Jobs, that magnificent bastard, gives us iPhone owners $100 in Apple store credit. I'm planning on getting a 4 GB iPhone! Woot!!
Now where did I put that receipt?
BTW, his letter reads more like Fake Steve than the real deal.
Can I whine about the iPhone price drop? I mean I bought it the first day. I bought into the hype. Steve Jobs owes me. He OWES me $200!
Bullocks!
I knew buying an iPhone then meant getting stuck with a 1.0 release. Being first when getting some kind of tech gadget means that you'll be bummed out when the 2.0 comes out.
And it will come out.
It won't be in the form of an 16 GB iPhone. That'll come this Christmas.
But iPhone 2.0 will be sleeker, cooler, sexier. It will be more powerful. It will have a longer battery life. It will be available for other carriers. It will have cooler applications. It will be another thing to drool over. It will cost cheaper for the amount of features it has. It may still cost $600 but will certainly be worth it.
It's coming. You'll want to buy it. You'll buy it.
And then Apple will pull the rug from under you, drop the price, and bring out iPhone 3.0. Let the whining begin again.
Ven y ven

This picture turned out better than I thought. As the comment says, it is my second favorite of the photos from the trip to spain.
We had to use the bathroom soon after pulling out of the other servicio joint, and we pull into here. This place was located near a wind farm, large windmills generating renewable resource energy. If I had turned around and took a picture, you would’ve seen an homage to Cervantes’s Don Quixote.
Working for InitTech is killing me. Of boredom. It’s the same shit different day, different clothes, and different place. If I wasn’t such a pussy, I would be writing my own software for myself and other dudes who liked what I like.
Kill me now.
Better than expected considering that it is currently at 31% approval at RottenTomatoes.com. Look I don’t think it was the greatest movie this summer or this year, but it was serviceable. I liked the story even if it was predictable. I didn’t think that Scarlett Johansson sucked. She was okay. I liked the flourishes the directors did.
But I didn’t read the book. But who cares?
I certainly don’t define my movie viewing habits by who gives what to which movie.
I liked it.
3 of 5 stars.
