Alright, I got my ticket for ohGr tonight and I\’m ready to go. I can\’t wait. I talked Irving into going with me, so I don\’t look like a loser standing by myself. Oh yeah, Hocico, the original opening band, couldn\’t get into the country or something like that, so Hate Dept. is opening instead. They\’re ok, I guess, but they\’re a little formulaic. Anyway, I\’m going to see ohGr, not Hate Dept, so it\’s not a big deal. Oh yeah, I almost forgot today\’s my birthday. Heh heh, the show\’s my present to myself.

An interplanetary Internet is in the works that will connect planets, satellites, asteroids, and spacecraft. They have to worry about such things as routes between planets changing due to the orbits of the planets. Sending data back and forth will be laggy too, cause even at the speed of light it takes 6 minutes to reach mars.

Here\’s a review of the Kodak DCS 760, a massive 6 megapixel digital camera. It weighs 4.1 lbs and costs $7000, but damn, check out those sample pictures.

The Lord of the Rings isn\’t even out in theaters yet and they\’re already working on a boxed set DVD version. Apparently, the theatrical version has tamer fight scenes to achieve a PG rating. I say just skip the PG and go directly to an unrated version.

DVD File reviewed Requiem for a Dream, which was released earlier this week. The DVD has a commentary by Darren Aronofsky, deleted scenes, and a Making Of feature. Personally, I think this is a movie worth owning on DVD. Avoid the R-rated version though, as some scenes were cut out and it doesn\’t have the extras on the unrated version.

Heh heh. Convict Jumps Wall – Into Another Prison. Maybe he got tired of the anal rape and jumped into the women\’s prison on purpose.

The Pogo is a very cool-looking device. It\’s a PDA, phone, mp3 player, and it also has wireless internet access. I just hope the internet access is cheap.

A financial executive was forced to resign after sending a boastful email to friends about his sexual conquests and lavish lifestyle. Check out part of it:
I\’ve got a spanking brand new 2000 sq. foot 3 bedroom apt. with a 200 sq. foot terrace running the entire length of my apartment with a view overlooking Korea\’s main river and nightline……Why do I need 3 bedrooms? Good question,…. the main bedroom is for my queen sizebed,…where CHUNG is going to fuck every hot chick in Korea over the next 2 years (5 down, 1,000,000,000 left to go)…. the second bedroom is for my harem of chickies, and the third bedroom is for all of you fuckers when you come out to visit my ass in Korea.
This jackoff is so full of himself. I say he deserved it. Goddamn investment bankers.
