Swear To God, I'll Fix It Good With My Hammer
► Friggin' computers... Did a scan early this afternoon with Microsoft Security Essentials. It found something apparently bad called Win32/Alureon.H and errored when it tried to "disinfect" it. Finishing that left the computer under "orange" alert and required rebooting the computer. Getting back on, everything seemed fine, with the program back to "yellow" for protected.
That is until I tried another scan which found the same file and repeated the process all day long. I've been trying other programs and I can not tell if my computer is clear or not, but at this point the frustration is making me slowly stop caring. I just don't want to have to bring the computer back to the shop for repairs again.
Computers are such a pain in the ass.
► Caught most of an Australian crocodile horror movie on Space (Canadian sci-fi and genre specialty cable channel) late last night (missed the opening and I was flipping stations during commercial breaks). The film was called Rogue and starred Radha Mitchell, Michael Vartan and Sam Worthington. I hadn't heard of the movie before and thought I had stumbled onto a made-for-cable cheapo, so I was pleasantly surprised that it was pretty good. Fairly entertaining B-movie. If I ever see it on DVD I'd probably pick it up.
► Flipping channels while watching TV this morning I stopped on a morning show and there was a segment with a guy asking people on the street what movies they saw or want to see this summer. Not surprisingly most of the people asked were teenage girls who's only interest or reason for living is Eclipse. I thought it was interesting that the last person shown interviewed was a very attractive (definite MILF) fit blonde woman who said she was a "40 year old team Jacob" while gushing. I couldn't help but think that if it was a 40 year old man gushing over, say, Kristen Stewart they wouldn't have responded with the same amount of delighted cheekiness.
► Who will play John Edwards in film? - More importantly, who cares?
► Pattinson Attacks Courtney Love - Cat fight! Watch out for the sparkly glitter and cocaine!'Quoted in Britain's The Mirror newspaper, Pattinson explodes in a foul-mouthed fury. 'You see all these comments, like from Courtney Love, saying 'What the f**k! He's totally wrong for it,' and I'm like, 'I f**king said no, you d**k!'''
Did Pattinson call Love a "dick"? Now, I don't claim to be a master speller, but I'm fairly certain the "k" isn't on the end of the word "dyke". "Dick" just seems like an unusual name for someone to call a woman. Is it a British thing, like calling guys "twat"?
Although maybe we've just reached a more enlightened period in our post-feminism society. Where the rigid gender specific slurs are breaking down. Maybe, now, women can be dicks, assholes and douchebags too!
► Is The New Photo Of Green Lantern Lame? - I have seen better done photoshopped celeb porn fakes. It was research... for a book. Yeah.
► Nicolas Cage Took Drugs With Cat - Not a single thing in this article surprises me.

Dallben: Then you are a very foolish lad. Untried courage is no match for his evil. Just remember that.
