Walk the Line

Monday, November 21st, 2005

Excellent movie. I never really liked Joaquin Phoenix, but he was great in this movie he was apparently actually singing. I recently read Cash the autobiography, so I think I like this movie a little better than Ray.

Yeah, that makes sense…

ABC and DirectTV are making a deal that will let people download commercial free TV shows shortly after they are aired to their DirectTV PVR for $.99. This is a strange idea... I just bought a Personal Video Recorder... I think I will not record my show, because I can ...

Google hates scrolling…

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

... and I don't know why. In Picassa and Google Talk, Google has 2 interfaces that would both benefit from a scroll bar. They don't have it at all in Google Talk (probably to force you to use their search feature, with more than a few contacts, the application becomes ...

You changed my life Came along in a time of strife In hunger and need You made my heart bleed You changed my life You changed my life Now the nature of man Is to beg and to steal I'd do it myself It's not so unreal The call of the wild's Forever at my door Want me to fly like an ...

Sideways

Thursday, May 12th, 2005

In a fit of movie watching that proved my complete lack of pop-cultural I.Q., I watched the movie Sideways (that's the title, not the orientation of my head while I was watching it, although I have noticed that I have no trouble watching movies while lying in my bed with ...

Go Aggies!

Saturday, January 1st, 2005

I'm off to go see the Cotton Bowl. ******Well, I'm back... The game was not much fun to watch. The 12th man showed up, but unfortunately the first 11 didn't for the Aggies. They had more turnovers in this game than the whole season, it seemed. After giving up 3 ...

From Brandon: In the eyes of Alice Cooper, all the rock stars campaigning for Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry are guilty of one thing: treason. The shock-rock legend, a staunch Republican who attends NBA games in Phoenix with Arizona Senator John McCain, was disgusted when he learned of plans by ...

This isn't just because Donnie is President of Basketball Operations for my favorite team...When pressed by a reporter Thursday about why Team USA's coaching staff doesn't include someone with more international experience, someone like Mavericks president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson, Larry Brown took offense."He has enough trouble coaching ...

Audioscrobbler

Friday, August 20th, 2004

I've been using Audioscrobbler for a while, and have been able to see it mature into a very neat website. You download a plugin that uploads the songs that you play to the audioscrobbler site. Their server takes this information and puts it in a database, and uses your listening ...

Hero

Thursday, August 19th, 2004

As good as it is (just finished watching it,) I predict that it won't be a big hit in the US... Or, at least, it won't be properly appreciated here.
