* I got a notice in the mail yesterday that my car is being recalled. Joy. It's rather minor--the auto window switch, which had previously been recalled on the make/model/year to be fixed, but apparently wasn't done well enough--except for the words "may cause fire". Okay. And that while I should get it to a dealership to be looked at right away, ( Read more... )

* I did not watch PoI last night because the Canucks had an early (4pm PT) game yesterday, then we ended up watching about 2/3 of the Stars-Kings game (which, really, embarrassing) and while it was all sad, it also didn't leave any time for PoI, and I see people had things to say about it, even if I haven't read any of it.

* I know I link to XKCD a lot, but this morning's entry is both sweet and a good reminder, and also very cool. Since the final panel is a MASSIVE entry you have to drag-and-click, someone went ahead and created a full screen, zoomable version. It's still going to take you a lot of time (I've not finished going through the whole thing yet, and keep ( Read more... )

* I did not get caught up on much of anything last night, as I instead went to my local city council meeting where they were voting on whether or not to support Referendum 74. I probably wouldn't have gone--thought about it, but let inertia keep me home, if B,

* Watched the finale of Eureka last night. I am so sad there won't be more, but it was a nice way to end it. ( Cut for comments on Just Another Day )

* Spent about 45 minutes this morning going through old records from the 40s and realizing once again that I LOVE this stuff. I love doing research and combing through old records and finding answers to things. I need to find reasons to do more of this.

* New PoI tonight! *dance*

* Photos for Django Unchained. I wish Tarantino was someone whose ( Read more... )

* Yom HaShoah was yesterday. I can't really add to any of the images and statements said by others. I've been sitting at my desk this morning before my office opened looking at photos from the various rememberances, including a survivor standing and crying in a box car that had been used to transport Jews to the camps, which was about to be ( Read more... )

* The newspaper informs me that "Megastorm looms" over Seattle today. Yes, we're expecting snow. No, I do not believe it will be the second Ice Age. Yes, getting home is going to be a COMPLETE PITA today, but that's mostly because of people here having no idea how to drive in remotely adverse (or even adverse-lite) conditions ( Read more... )

* Video of Jason Moma talking about making Conan. He looks great, but I must admit, I miss the beard.

* Empire has updated their horribly Photoshopped movie poster gallery. If you've never seen it, it's worth a look, and you'll want to follow some of their links off of there. (Most horrifying to me: You Can Count on Me. What...WHAT?! Someone got ( Read more... )

* I am rewatching H50 and re-reading Inception slash. You'd think I'd read one of the many things I have which is new, but no.

* I don't have movie news again today, but
