Haha! I do believe I have thwarthed the “menace” of not being able to put quotes “” ” into replies! It was a pain in the ass, so i best be seein’ some quote usin’ replies!
Wow! This is pretty cool… Akira Kurosawa’s 1985 “contemporary classic” RAN is going to be back in theatres starting on my birthday, August 18th. They also have quite a wicked website up and running (you need the Flash plugin, and well you should, it’s REALLY good Flash).
Yippee!
Mac in the Box
I never really cared for the Macintoshes so much. They were expensive, proprietary, but DAMN if they didn’t LOOK good.
Well, I think they have topped themselves, in all their G4 glory with the G4 PowerMac Cube. They have crammed a G4 into an 8″ cube, and DAMN. It looks sweet! I can’t wait for the PC-clones to come out.
The Onion, America’s Finest News Source, has an interview with MC Paul Barman, my favorite Brown-education Jewish rapper. Go there now! To give you a little taste of his rhyme, “No one left for the restrooms when I got onstage / I can rock the mic to ‘Silence’ by John Cage”. Now do you see Eminem dropping rhymes about pretentious art-foo performance pieces? No.
Darwin Awards New Site!
The Darwin Awards has a brand new site. And let me tell you, it looks good. If you had ever seen the earlier versions of the VARIOUS Darwin Awards sites, they were hideous. The new site, though. Gorgeous.
What’s up?! Many updates on the CAR MP3 site today! (this morning actually. I am so tired. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz).
So, i’ve added new pictures! I’ve added a new diary entry, and I re-did the HOW-TO section too. Plenty of Hardware, Software, and Installation notes. (not all are completed yet, i’m about to die from lack of sleep).
Also, any of you coming from the MP3Car Ring, DROP ME A LINE! It’d be great to hear from you all, even if it is just questions. Hehe. Enjoy!
Ale-8-One on the Web!
I find out today, after much searching for Ale8One on the web, that they do indeed have a website. I must say, it is very slick! History, sales online, everything a man (or, I guess, really, just me) could want! Go! Run! Don’t Walk!
Well, here is the next best thing, BBSpot.com. It’s simple, yet sophisticatedly funny like the Onion, but DAILY! How wonderful. Here is a good example of their funny. Also, this one is good as well. Check them out!
