Wow slow down on the posting there Dave.

Ok this is the last one I swear! But I saw this and I just had to show my mom. Disney and the special effects guys that helped out with the Lord Of the Rings are now doing The Chronicles of Narnia! The first installment is, of course, The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe and its due out this December. Just when we thought there was no more Lord Of The Rings to fill our holiday season with cheer we now get C.S. Lewis.

So check out the site and see the trailers!

This is what I have been waiting for!

Now this is cool! Imagine a display screen that is embeded in a piece of plastic. You roll it up and take it with you or have it on a wall that you cant tell its there until you turn it on? They are planning on having laptops that have screens that fold out so you can get a 17″ screen on a 10 inch laptop. Go here to see a picture of one in action.

Why do I not post when I am not busy.

I think its because I have nothing to post about. However right now I am again at work and I have cleaned just about every wall and desk in the shop, so its time for a blog break. Now Earl did a great job of keeping me occupied last time, lets see if he can pull it off again, or can someone top him?

So yesterday was the last day to do your taxes… and I finished mine… yesterday. I know, I should have done them sooner but you all know me and you should be surprised that I got them done at all. Now that its done I am thinking I should have done it sooner… could have gotten my computer upgraded sooner.

So I have decided on my computer upgrade. I am going with an AMD +3500 on an MSI Nforce4 board with an Nvidia PCI-E video card… not sure which one, have to check out the prices when I get my return back. Oh the overclocking sweetness of it all. :P

My class is now over, had my test on Monday. I went into the final with an 87 so unless I completely died on the test I should pass. Now I am just waiting for my test score to post online so I can see my final mark… I just forgot my password for the online logon. D’oh.

OK time for more cleaning.

Last Chance Lucas!

Ok, Im not saying that the last two released starwars movies were bad, but they were just not nearly as good as the origonal three. Now there are many theroies as to why this is, my favorite is that he just has just gone a bit crazy. He has messed with the origonal three so far as to completely deleting the actor that played the Emperor in the first three and digitaly superimposing the new actor onto the film(I think thats a rumor, chirs could you please varify?). Come on, whats with that! So with the final movie just a mater of weeks away we are left wondering… is it going to make up for the last two, dig Lucas further into the ground, or just pass into oblivion. The world is waiting.

On a lighter note Earl gets honorable mention for keeping me occupied at work with that 20 questions site. Its an online A.I. and the more people play it the better it gets… so go here and play away. Maybe it will be played so much it will get so smart it will become self-aware and spawn a whole race of inteligent life, then chaos will ensue. (started on a lighter note… kind of ended dark though)

Oh and if there are any more movie quotes to be made get them in quick or else ill close it poll and post the answers. You know where to email the answers to I assume.
