I think I may have found an alternate source of income that would rock if I can figure out how to do it well. I’d like to design houses in Chief Architect and then sell the blueprints to people who actually go out and build them! It sounds crazy, I know, but people like this…
A .torrent of the 1964 World’s Fair/Disney 4-CD box set is up for your downloading pleasure over at waxy.org. The release of this audio collection was cancelled for unknown reasons a few years ago. It’s a great audio time-capsule of Disney’s inolvement with the World’s Fair of 1964, back when the Fairs took place with…
SpiderMan 2 trailer released. There’s not much point in seeing the movie after watching the trailer. It basically explains the whole story, so it’s like a mini-movie in itself.
Lately I’ve been trying really hard to find a good piece of home design software. I want to visualize how different parts of our house would look with different colors of paint, new flooring, or whatever – without actually spending the money to find out. There appear to be three major software packages out there…
There are porn sites out there that let you talk to girls who take off their clothes for you on webcams. You tell them what to do and they supposedly do it. Along those same lines, Burger King has taken cyber-voyeurism to the next level with the creepily obebient subservient chicken. He’ll dance for you,…
disneylandpostcards.com is the online equivalent of the hardcover book Disneyland the Nickel Tour: A Postcard Journey Through a Half Century of the Happiest Place on Earth. (And you can believe the Amazon reviews – the book is flat-out gorgeous.) The Nickel Tour seems to be out-of-print now, based on the prices I’m seeing at Amazon…
The Adventures of Seinfeld & Superman – “Uniform” is a totally funny Amex commercial. “Hindsight” isn’t finished yet.
We all knew it was coming. As of today, it’s now official. Farscape is returning as a four-part miniseries! I’m cool with this. It’s awesome just to see it get a good ending. I’m not expecting to see any new episodes after this though, which makes me sad. Brian Henson and series producer Rockne O’Bannon…
Leo Laporte is leaving TechTV. Actually he’s being pushed out. “management and I had come to a very satisfactory agreement about a new work schedule and salary, but at the last minute TechTV’s outgoing owner, Vulcan Ventures, insisted that I sign away all claims to shares they had given me some years ago. I was…
Tivo is great, but it ain’t cheap. The hardware can be a little pricey, and the monthly or lifetime subscription fees are a little hard to swallow for the uninitiated. And it’s actually very limited in what it can do when you compare it to the likes of MythTV and Beyond TV – two seemingly…
