I stumbled across an interesting article this morning.  Starting on November 20th (last Tuesday), Japan is fingerprinting all foreign visitors and taking their picture.  They apparently had done this previously, and then stopped, and then started it up again.  And there's been some anger from people about the privacy involved and all that.  ( ( Read more... )

I'm working on my introduction to the fine order of the Geek. I got my very first Gameboy today. I got a Nintendo Advanced, the kind that flips shut. I'm excited. :) I also got Tetris! Lots and lots of games of Tetris in one itsy, bitsy, teeny, tiny little piece of plastic. :D The reason I really wanted to get it is so that Justin and I can ( Read more... )

There are pictures that I took of the ice over at my website.  Clicky.

I'm going to see The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe tonight!  :D

iTunes is being crappy. It had me download the update, but now it doesn't run. I got a -3 error and it says that QuickTime isn't right and I've tried deleting the whole thing, restarting, downloading and reinstalling, but I'm still getting the same crappy messages.
