I was watching A Beautiful Mind (the movie, not a real brain) the other night and I began thinking to myself, what if that's happening to me right now?  How would I know who to ask what's real and what's not?  I mean, if you ask someone that you're imagining what's real, you can't trust what he says, right?  How would you ever figure it out?

As of yesterday, Shrek 2 beat Star Wars I, Phantom Menance to be the #4 all time domestic grossing movie.  ET is the #3 movie with $435.1 million so there's a small chance that it will bump up another spot but it's sales are flagging and the summer isn't over.  I'm not going to make a guess on this one ( Read more... )

I'm reading an article today about a guy that started up a great little store in DC.  I'd love to tell you what store it is but after the whole glowing article about how this guy was a born entrepreneur and how resourceful he is and how he has a nose for picking the right things for his store, they appear to have forgotten to tell us the actual ( Read more... )

I'm still working this evening when a college friend calls me to catch up.  I hear something in funny in the background and he tells me that Mars Attacks! is on.  I haven't seen the movie in a long time so I switch over to stare at it for awhile.  So we catch up for a bit with the movie on the background ( Read more... )

You know those links that people have on their sites: Sign my guestbook!  This leads to an interface that allows you to leave a quick comment for the web author - kind of like a digital guest book at a wedding.  So now, as if SPAM wasn't bad enough, there's commercial sites that have taken to flooding guestbooks with a link back to their site.  ( Read more... )

Oog.  I had a spate of odd dreams last night.  Of course, now, the details are starting to fade but let me try and capture some of them for you ( Read more... )

I don't understand why some women wear tight t-shirts with a flashy logo right across their breasts but then complain when someone is actually looking... I would expect that if I was wearing a red clown nose, people would look at it otherwise, why wear it, right?  So if you do that, male or female, stop complaining about it!  You're the one ( Read more... )
