Fiction
Went out to see My Super-Ex Girlfriend last night. Not bad, but nothing special. As usual, I think the best scenes were in the trailers, so everyones seen them. But I saw an add for a movie called Stranger than Fiction. It’s about a fiction writer who just happens to be writing about a persons […]
Teh Winner!!!!11One
Couple of weeks ago I entered a contest with sliceofscifi.com, something about a new show called EUREKA, which I hope Space picks up because it sounds like fun. Anyway, the idea was: in 25 words or less, explain what you, the scientist in charge of a Top Secret Research Project overseeing a group of geniuses […]
Den
I have a den. It’s not much of a den, but it’s a den. Actually, I changed the chair, still a fold up, but it has a footrest, and is much more comfortable. I used my den last night to do a bit of reading. Wow, I miss reading. I do a little, and I […]
More Scanning
I suppose I should retract/alter my full opinion of ‘art house’ theaters. I don’t actually hate them, I was just in a real pissy mood Friday. However, I have to say that the ByTown isn’t anything special, and maybe my hatred of Friday was mostly directed at that specific theater. I have to say, if […]
A Scanner Darkly
Where the hell is it? In the one ‘art house’ theater that Ottawa has, that’s where. And where the hell is that? About as far away from useful as you can get without leaving the city! Now, those that know me, know that I can get really pissed off about the dumbest things, and I […]

Borrowed a book about dog training from the library. Does it count as ironic if the dog training book looks to have been chewed on by a dog? The book pretty much assumes that you’ve had the dog since puppy-hood, which I haven’t, but it also tells me that I wasn’t that far off in […]
West Sieed!
The problem when most of the people you deal with, work wise, are on the west coast is that there is the occasional noon meeting. I’m in one of those meetings right now. I want to go how and walk the dog. I’m sure she want’s to be walked as well….
No More Who
Just watched the last episode of Dr Who, and man, what an episode! And there’s gonna be nothing new until Christmas, which should rock. Now I need to download other things…like…well, with any luck, a second season of the IT Crowd. I should check up on that.
‘Burbs
You know you’re in the suburbs when, just after Italy won the world cup, there is one guy standing outside yelling: Italia, Italia, Italia! One guy. One very proud guy ^_^ The game was cool, it had everything: Goals Yellow Cards Red Cards Headbutts What more could you ask for? And what a headbutt it […]
