Review: Inception [very minor spoilers]
Christopher Nolan is a fan of the mind-fuck, and his latest film Inception is no exception to the rule. He's perfected the art of leaving the audience wondering what the truth really is, while spelling out two very divergent yet both quite plausible explanations. With a stellar cast of characters state-of-the-art CG, he's able to create worlds ( Read more... ) -
Nerdy fun!
I just taught myself how to read binary and use a Vigenere Cipher. -
Sicky sick.
Somehow in all my being active and healthy I've contracted a cold somewhere. Stupid germs. I went home early yesterday, and now that we've moved the Wii into our bedroom (since nobody else in the house uses it) I can play Legend of Zelda and Super Mario Brothers 1, 2 & 3 as much as I like - which I did yeterday until I fell asleep at like 4:30. badbluebomber ( Read more... ) -
Review: Muse at the Oracle
Last night I took my honey out to see Muse with Silversun Pickups opening out at the large-scale venue known currently as the Oracle Arena in Oakland. It'd been a long time since I'd last attended a show there - Tool the night after driving back from Burning Man in 2006, to be precise.

It always leaves me with this sense of satisfaction that either the world around me is syncing up with what it actually is (my perception), or my grasp of reality as it is (independent of me) is spot on. I'm a big believer in the the world revolving around me, due to my belief that ( Read more... ) -
Disciple of Christ
No, it's not what you're thinking. I haven't become a born again Christian - though of course I suppose that I'd have to have been a Christian at some point earlier in my life to be born again, right ( Read more... ) -
The Road Not Taken
A calendar trivia question about Joaquin Phoenix got me to remembering one of my teenage loves... his big brother, River. It's interesting to read anecdotes that I knew when I was 16 - to see mention of the Seventeen Magazine environmental editorial he wrote and know exactly what it looked like - because a 14 year old me had it lovingly pinned to ( Read more... ) -
