My daughter and I went to see “Letters To Juliet” this afternoon. It was the typical boy doesn’t pay enough attention to girl so she looks elsewhere movies. There were several laugh out loud moments and several tear jerker moments. Pretty much the definition of the romantic comedy. I’d rate it about a 6.5 out of 10.
I upgraded Ubuntu to 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) last night and had an unpleasant surprise this morning – the fonts were upside down! The login screen looked ok, but after logging in things weren’t so good. Continue reading
Come on people, wake up and smell the coffee! Pretty much any group that says something like “WHEN 65% OF YOUR FRIENDS JOIN, YOU WILL GET…”, don’t believe them! It’s a hoax. I’ve seen a BUNCH of these groups popping on on FaceBook lately and they are bogus.
Let me start by saying that I’m a firm believer in both Ubuntu and OpenDNS. The problem I had was getting OpenDNS setup to correctly identify the IP address assigned by my ISP. I have a WiFi router that doesn’t automatically update OpenDNS, so I needed a way to keep OpenDNS updated when my IP address changes. Keep in mind that in a configuration like this (pretty common) my computer’s IP address is NOT the IP address that OpenDNS needs to identify my computer so scripts running on the computer can’t easily identify the routers external address.

Having grown up with “old school” vampire movies like Dracula, I have a bit of a problem with a lot of the new age vampire movies. I mean come on, what fun is it when vampires walk into the sun and sparkle (Twilight)? Really? Well, I have to admit that a LOT of the old school vamp rules apply in Daybreakers, but not all and some new weird rules (even for vamp movies) are thrown in to boot! Continue reading
There have been a few posts bouncing around Facebook related to privacy and your Facebook data. With that being said, I thought I would spend a few minutes and discuss online privacy and Facebook privacy in particular.
I would like to plead “guy” to all charges, your Honor!
My daughter and I went to see “Old Dogs” tonight. I thought it was ok. She said “the only funny part was where the guy got hit in the balls”…. Honestly, I probably should have made this one a $1 movie special!
I would give it about a 3 out of 5.
I went bowling last week and I made a few observations. Basically, I noticed that there are several different styles of bowling. Some people use a HUGE ball and see how hard they can throw it down the lane, for them accuracy isn’t as big a deal as simply pounding the pins. Some use a small ball and roll it easy, for these people accuracy matters more. The guys that throw the big ball hard and accurately are in the PBA.
The real epiphany came after bowling…. sex is a bit like bowling… The size of the ball isn’t as important if the accuracy is good enough. When you consistently hit the sweet spot, you don’t have to hit it too hard. If the ball is big enough and thrown hard enough, accuracy isn’t as important. Or so I’ve been told….
How many of you have thought, “why can’t I find Mr. or Ms. Right”? But the real question is, are you REALLY looking for Mr. Right or are you looking for Mr. Right Now? How can you tell? Continue reading
