Post of many things
Okay, lots of subjects for one post:
A Mac question: Ever since I did the last system updates (coinciding with the computer spitting out a CD I'd had in it) I've been getting a message whenever I start up that says "No updates can be found" or something similar. The program running this is called SuperDrive Update 2.1. Anyone know what this is or how I can stop it from trying to find updates whenever I turn my computer on?
Movies: We saw the Fantastic 4 movie on Monday and Live Free or Die Hard on Tuesday (no more movie spending for us for a while ^^;; Er, except Transformers, I guess). They were both WONDERFUL. I friggin' loved every minute of the Die Hard movie, and Rise of the Silver Surfer was really neat. But, weirdly, at the very beginning of the Fantastic 4 movie, I said to myself "Sue's going to get skewered in this movie. I just know it. She just looks like the type who's going to be surprised to find a sharp object protruding from her stomach sometime dramatic." It ended up being her chest, but I was still kind of O.o that I'd had that image and then it happened. Also, at the end, when Reed was holding her and she was waking up, I had this total Sailor Moon R moment. Because she's all blond and saved-the-worldy and Ioan Gruffudd would make a really good Mamoru.
Random Twilight Princess tidbit: I'm playing the game over again (whee!) and when you first meet Princess Zelda, she has the Sheika eye symbol on the back of her cloak. It's small, but it's definitely the one Sheik has on his armor. In the Ocarina of Time manga, they explain that it's the symbol of the Sheika because one of them betrayed the royal family long ago or something and hence the eyeball with the teardrop.
And happy 4th of July :)
