It’s alive! It’s alive!

After placing the remarkably capacious brain in my little monster here, and nearly losing a vitally important screw, I can at long last proclaim my success. My iBook lives.

Okay, sorry, that’s all the fake drama I can muster. I did drop one screw, but other than that, everything went really smoothly. I just cut the timing close and had to scoot to a party. But I’m back now. And my ‘Book was still alive. I’m happy. Sixty mighty gigabytes. (I was gonna put a little “leet-speak woot here, but then I remembered that leet-speak is infinitely fucking lame. Whew. Dodged a bullet there.)

Wish me luck.

I’m about to perform a brain transplant on my trusty iBook. I’m going to up the teensy little 10GB hard drive to a whopping 60GB. If all goes well, I’ll be up and running again an hour from now with a sparkling clean system. I’ll spend the next couple of days getting all my various programs and documents back in place.

One more unto the breach, dear friends! Once more!

Paris Hilton is a pinhead.

But I’m really tempted to call Lindsay Lohan. And “Leelee”, (Sobieski, perhaps?). Then again, Crank Yankers might actually be worth watching now.

Constantine

This movie rocked. Very dark and intense. Some beautiful scenes. Very nice to look at, and didn’t pull many punches. Some very disturbing things, but very interesting, and a rewarding moviegoing experience. Not for the religiously sensitive. Go check it out.

BTW, comments have been working since the move to pro hosting. Something in my old install prevented the set-up from completing. Anyway, share all you like. You just need to create a TypePad login. It helps keep out spammers.

PLR, y’all.

Keeping up on current events.

The concert was good. A little weird. Kinda looked like a casting call for a Beavis & Butthead movie. I’ve been balls to the wall since then. Been moving (10 minutes up the road). Travelling, borrowing a van (which I need to return soon). Even managed to get in a little hanging out with friends, family and pets. I’ve got an interesting writing project going on, so as soon as there’s enough to share, I’ll do so.

San Fransisco

My feet like to travel here, but my driving skills are a little worn out. I’m in town to see the Queensryche concert tonight at the Warfield. More info later.

Alone in the Dark

I liked this story when it was the Series finale of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I even liked it pretty well when it was the Resident Evil movies. Here, it just sucks. The plot was lame, and semi-undecipherable, the acting wasn’t anything special. The creatures were kinda cool, but otherwise, this movie had nothing to offer. I almost nodded off toward the end of the flick.

I was curious as to whether it’s based on the mid-90′s video game, and the credits say it is. I remember playing the video game for an hour or so before I lost interest, and I found the same to be true of this movie. Sadly, I can’t think of anyone who might enjoy this movie. I want’ my $5.50 back.

And Now For a Little Funny

Though not technically music, this little beauty is going in the music category. It’s an MP3 of my friend Peggy and I performing the classing “Who’s on First” bit by Abbott and Costelly. While no Masterpiece, I think it’s pretty good for having only one read-through.

Without further ado: Who’s on First?

Mr. Cellophane

This is my first musical offering. It’s not the best I’m capable of, but it’s pretty darned good for a couple of run throughs and the built-in microphone from an iBook. If y’all like it, I will have more for you soon. I’ll probably have it anyway. As soon as I get on a faster connection, I’ll have a lil’ bit of comedy for you.
