Heroes targets its target audience
See if you can guess. I just posted a little bit on how the current Miss Universe (Riyo Mori from Japan) seemed like she was going to get a role on the upcoming second season of Heroes. Now sfsignal points out that Aishwarya Rai is going to join as Mohinder’s (supposedly dead, but apparently not [...]

Oh, I forgot, today is Blog Like It’s The End Of The World. I might otherwise have done it, sadly I am in crazy mode this week getting through too many projects. But if you want to get your fill of zombies, chiggity check out that link. There are a lot of people B’ingLTEOTW. Also, [...]
Review: Old Man’s War by John Scalzi
Ok, so I’m behind the times, I just read the book. That’s life. Turns out, the book is really quite a good read. I wasn’t sure what to expect and to be honest I was a little skeptical - the premise seemed a touch crazy. Interstellar war is now waged by geriatrics from Earth who [...]
Review: Spider-Man 3
Now I enjoyed the first two movies a lot (although, I may be in the minority in that I liked the first one more than the second) so I walked into the third fairly optimistic. Although, I’d heard all the rumors that the cost of this movie (including marketing) was half a billion dollars, which [...]
Breakfast Links: UK, Seven Wonders & Speed Racer
Ok, so you know I’ve spent no shortage of words on the UK recently. I mean, they just make it so easy, what with all their flushing their phones down the toilet, sure one time I dropped my pager into the can - but that was a long time ago! And then there’s their recently [...]

Breakfast Links: Cat Cam, Lego Tower & Sanctuary
Double-dipping my monday art.
UPDATE: the catcam site went down, but now it’s back up at a new address!
Something many pet owners talk about doing in a haha-wouldn’t-that-be-funny kind of way is hang a camera on their pet to see what they’re up to over the course of the day. Well, this person has gone and [...]

Breakfast Links: Sci-fi Security, Mad Cows & HTML Anime
Ok, you can’t believe this one. Well, maybe you can, but I can’t. Our Department of Homeland Security, the one that’s supposed to be keeping us safe (but isn’t) you know their new initiative? They’re working with science fiction writers to figure out the next plots that the terrorists will use. Seriously. The dumb thing [...]

The Vader Project!
Wow, I’d like to have seen this. At Celebration IV (a Star Wars con) there was an exhibit of Darth Vader helmets as done by 66 awesome artists - with brows both high and low (and sometimes in these days, strangely, both). People like Tim Biskup, Gary Baseman, Dalek, Paul Frank, Dave Horvath and Sun-Min [...]
Frak!
You know I totally love the new Battlestar Galactica. Probably as much as I loved the early seasons of Buffy, which is saying something. You know I also love a successful wiki, wiki’s without a lot of content I find a little sad. But a good wiki is a thing to behold.
Now what do you [...]
Won, he has! Yoda triumphs over Vader
No, Lucas has not made another episode, I’m talking about the world of stamps. The USPS ran the competition to see which of the Star Wars stamps would be sold individually and in the end it was Yoda who beat out Vader for the honor. Wasn’t my pick, but I’m not complaining. Sadly his single [...]
