In a mood for a movie, I turn to my friends for suggestions and reviews. I'm leaning more toward ridiculous comedy, but the only movie any of my friends have seen, seem to be, "300". I hadn't thought about it much until one of their reviews was so eloquently stated to me:
"300 six-packs running around in banana hammocks is reason enough. go, go now."
lol!
and msnbc chimes in with, "Zack Snyder's opulent eye-candy remake, "300," ... is one of 2007's most anticipated movies."
What I am waiting to see, is "Blades of Glory" a movie that indeed looks like ridiculous and brainless fun. or not. Previews have made me giggle and that is about all I need.
on another note.. is it normal to be able to walk into a hospital, go up to the patient floor, and walk into a room completely unnoticed? I mean, it just seems so.. accessible. I never visited anyone in the hospital before, and it seems that there would be a check in of some sort..

JoeCategory: animals
Recently, I heard Joey giving one of his toys a pretty fair beating. He is a busy cat and I swear he sleeps only at night. Well, ever curious as to what he found to amuse himself, I looked in on his playtime. And I grabbed the camera of course :)
I do believe he was making a bit of a political statement...
and I will spare you the other 500 pictures I took, haha

Nice pictures. That first one is funny cause it looks like the cute little guy has a buddy then the others show he is going in for the attack. I say next time you post put in 500 pictures and see if anyone looks at all of them.

firefox extensionsCategory: nerd
Just received my weekly ComputerWorld fix. I am linking the following article for those who are Firefox users- particularly those interested in extensions. I have a few add-ins to make my browsing experience more delightful- however there are so many, that I might be missing out on some really helpful ones. The article ferrets out the "20 Must-have Firefox extensions". I enjoyed going through what their opinion is of the add-ins--and what can be expected. The dirt on them may save me time with d/l. I had hoped for a review on Jet Packs.. alas I will just have to give it a try myself. enjoy!

Best ones' for a web developer are probably "MeasureIt", which lets you measure screen elements, and "ColorZilla", which will give you the color value for stuff with an eyedropper.
They're the last two on that list...
Very cool article... thanks!

I will admit i didn't follow the link, but maybe if I did I wouldn't feal this way. I think daylight savings time is a waste of time. You have to go and change all the clocks twice a year and don't get it. If people want more light then they should rearange there schedulles or something.

Thanks for the reminder! :O)
And the link. Found out some infot i was wondering about, but not enough to research it myself. I was wondering what Canada was up to with this, if they were gonna go along with the US on the earlier DST. Looks like they are...

limited edition toxic green milkshakeCategory: silliness
I'm not obsessed, I just wasn't sure exactly what flavor the coveted Shamrock Shakes actually are. (to answer (e:leetee) ) Shamrock? ;) Mint? Kinda, but not really.. So I decided to do a little research.
This article cracked me up. This guy was on the search for the shake, and his commentary of his adventures were humorous to read, along with the pictures and commercials of McDonalds ads from long ago.
Whatever happened to Grimace, the Fry Guys and that Hamburgler???
and so, I read on.. laughing.. and now sharing. The link to the site/article is below, if you have a few minutes.
I don't even like McDs. Other than the fries, an occasional shake, and the yearly Shamrock Shake- just because.

"There is a significant Irish population in my town. There is a significant number of McDonald's restaurants in my town. Yet, there are no Shamrock Shakes. Not even during March. It's a fact that haunts me year after year, and a fact that doesn't process as such because, year after year, I hit every McDonald's in the whole damn city...just to be safe. As you might guess, this whole thing has become more than a simple pining for a good milkshake. It's a war. It's a life goal. It isn't so much about finding and devouring a Shamrock Shake and it is about just finding a Shamrock Shake,..."

Even though you didn't write it your self carey that is a nice article about the shamrock shake, now I want one.

i think it's more of an honor system type thing than it is anything else. i've never been accosted by a security guard at a hospital telling me i need to turn around and get a visitor's pass.
PS. If you feel like seeing 300 on IMAX, I'm down. Yes, I liked it THAT much! ha ha
I would have been able to do that, if it wasn't necessary to be buzzed onto the floor. Otherwise, they don't seem to pay much mind to random people roaming around the hospital.
Blades of Glory looks like great dumb fun. I think it ought to be an estrip fieldtrip some night
If you feel like renting movies, stranger than fiction is really funny (though, I wouldn't call it ridiculous comedy).
