All Quiet On The Western Front

04.10.2003

Ever since Camtoon Tuesday, it's just been awfully quiet. Not much going on, or at least nothing memorable.

I guess I just have to console my self with the fact that Breakin 2 is coming out on DVD next week.

Camtoon Tuesday

04.08.2003

In an effort to be more regular (that's a bad line to take out of context), I'm going to try to publish a new camtoon on Tuesdays. They're not all going to be rolliing on the floor funny, but maybe at least worth a chuckle or two. These week is the first to follow the repurcusions of Dr. Evil taking over Raw.

Cause I'm The Taxman

04.07.2003

Last night, I finally finished my taxes after 2 months of putting it off, along with another 2 weeks of finding something better to do. Yes, if you couldn't tell, this is one of those times that I owe the government instead of getting a refund back. One of the drawbacks of both working a regular job AND making websites on the side. It doesn't outweigh the benefits of the exra money to go buy toys with, so I'm not going to bitch too much. I definitely got my money's worth out of TurboTax this year. I got the home business edition, filled in all the blanks, and let it print out the 28 pages needed for my federal and sate returns. One of these days I'll get an accountant.

I also managed to get the last of the chiropractor's website moved to the new server over the weekend. Now I've just got to get back to those other 3 sites I'm working on...

Yahoo News

My favorite news story of the day. The first paragraph:

"NEW YORK - While reporting on a U.S. Navy medical team in Iraq on Thursday, CNN medical correspondent Sanjay Gupta unexpectedly became part of the story when asked to perform emergency brain surgery. The 2-year-old Iraqi boy did not survive."

There's more to the story, but just reading that first paragraph makes me laugh.

Old Fashioned Movie Time

04.03.2003

Last night I went and saw a movie (something I haven't done in a long time). I went and saw Dreamcatcher. Billed as a "Stephen King Suspense Thriller", it was more of a straight sci-fi movie. In fact, it reminded me of something I would see on the Sci-Fi channel as one of their first run movies. It wasn't a bad movie, in fact I enjoyed it, but it wasn't the movie that I thought I was going to see (no supernatural blood and guts flying around).

My highpoint was in the previews before the movie. They showed Final Flight of the Osiris, first in the Animatrix series that will hype the upcoming Matrix Reloaded movie. I'm looking forward to the new Matrix. I still remember going to see the original in Louisville, leaving the theater and saying "Wow, I've gotta see that again" (this was before Matrix mania hit and everybody found out what they had been missing). So now I start to get hyped for the movie... only to have to wait until May 15th. Wait! That's not much more than a month away! Woo hoo!
