The Macs have landed…
I’m checking my Fed Ex tracking numbers, and I see that both Macs have arrived today. Heh, would have been a good day to call in sick. I’ll post all about them after I get home, get them unpacked, and get them up and running…
Sci-fi comes to life…
I have a fascination with animals which seem like they should only belong to the annals of science fiction, but which actually exist (especially when said animal was thought to have only existed in science fiction, and then is later found to be real).

Children of Men (2006) ****
Fans of end-of-times movies (of which I am a big one), great news – this is the best one yet. Alfonso Cuarón’s (Y tu mamá también, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban) latest movie starts off with a nifty premise. It’s the near future. Women are infertile. There are no more children, and no [...]
