Im sick, so you're not getting any sort of snazzy title for this page. SorryKick-Ass (red band trailer!) Quirky comic book turned movie. Ridley Scott's Robin Hood. He always has the best music set-up for his trailers. Knight & Day. Tom Cruise knows how to play crazy, but he also knows to to play funny and kick ass. As much as he himself annoys me it's hard to argue he's a bad actor. I

I've been AWOL. I'm sorry. They have blocked Blogger at work and so now I guess I have to start updating on the days I'm not working. Or after I get off work. Either way, I have not left you folks, so the geeky tech news and LOLs and weird artist blurbs will continue. So will my ever present typos that I'm just now noticing as I read back through old posts.

Google got bad map info? The Dutch map company they use in Europe may have gotten their map info in a less than legal way. Apparently it's common for mapmakers to insert fake towns, to ensure people don't steal their maps-pretty clever akshually. And lo and behold, there is a fake town of Argleton in England. Some of the commenters point out its an anagram of several things-including 'not

Mary Travers, from Peter, Paul, and Mary fame, passed away. I used to stay up late at night to see them perform on PBS. I had a stuffed animal that I named Puff, and so it was one of my favourite songs.

Pilots N Paws is a program where pilots donate their time and money(in the form of fuels costs, etc) to transporting animals from over populated shelters to rescue groups across the US that have the capacity to take in more animals.

Sen. Grassley tells people they should worry about 'death panels'. Eventually all this fearmongering will get old, people will realize these aren't panels where you wheel a loved one in front of the court and some judge says 'they're old and useless-pull the plug!' and then we can get down to talking facts. And while this bill is in no way perfect- I want it to happen myself, but am worried about

John Hughes passed away. There isn't much I could say that you're not already thinking. I'm mostly sad he quit making films in the 90's. Though he was apparently accredited with doing some work with a couple more recent films, for the most part he lived his life quietly. I think he could've come up with some good stuff if he had tried. Or cared... Or maybe he did try but didn't care to get it

Apparently Facebook and Twitter are not doing well this morning. There is some speculation that it could be related to the Gawker incident. I don't know about that-just the otehr day I tweeted about Facebook failing on me. The chat freezes up, or doesn't load at all, and I get errors all the time. Twitter though? No telling.

GI Joe may not be a horrible movie. Harry at Ain't It Cool News has given it a thumbs up. His review makes it sounds good-not too anything. Has a story, but it's not dull; has explosions but that's not all; has some romance but it's definately not a chick flick. Still appropriate for kids around 9+ but still fun for adults too.
