Idle Hands
This evening, I've been screencapping clips from Superman Returns -- I have seventy caps so far from four of the clips and about as much still to come, I figure.
I found the clips more than a week ago, over at IGN's site and couldn't resist nabbing them since they were downloadable. Sad to say, IGN has watermarked the bottom righthand corner of all the clips. Oh, well! Now I'm finally getting around to capping them and they're turning out pretty well. If I'm fortunate, maybe tomorrow night I'll have the whole set done and I can post them in a zip file.

In other not-so-news, we watched a History Channel documentary on the Japanese atomic program during World War II. Very interesting. I mentioned to Mike that an old family friend was someone who worked on the Manhattan Project -- he was intrigued. I should really dig into his story sometime. In the meanwhile, the documentary interested me enough that I looked up some references and am thinking about adding this to my interlibrary loan wish list: Walter Grunden's Secret Weapons and World War II: Japan in the Shadow of Big Science. After all, even if I refuse to tell my colleagues for fear that they'll push me into yet another set of new preps, my undergraduate minor was in Asian history.
