Mark wrote to me this afternoon and told me that K-19 wasn’t the
first “Officially Sanctioned National Geographic Film”. According to him,
Snow Dogs, the infamous talking-dogs-and-cuba-gooding-junior movie, was
brought to you by the same people who saved the condor, pioneered colour film
and the celluloid camera, and funded many ill-fated trips up Mount Everest.
With all the -good- things [...]

I knew about this like three months ago!
Bionicles
Movie at Animation Magazine
Find -that- on HSX. It’s going to be super-cool, too. I have a bunch of

Laszlo invited us out to see K-19 the other day, and I thought it was a
pretty good movie. I don’t know how accurate it was to the -actual- events
that transpired on a soviet nuclear submarine during the cold war, but given

So I got all into his game called the Hollywood
Stock Exchange, where you get 2 million imaginary dollars to invest in
how well you think movies are going to do in the box office. It’s mostly just
a huge marketing scheme, but it’s fun.
Lately, though, I’ve been getting all of this insider info into the movie
world, and [...]

So, it seems that one of the hobbies of drunken Manitobans is to shout
obscenities out of taxis at people they don’t know. This has happened to me a
number of times, and tonight in particular I’m annoyed about it. Mostly
because the guy never managed to make a coherent sentence.
“Hey you, in the red shirt,” meaning me, [...]

I’ve been watching Star Trek Voyager late at night the past few days in a
row, and I’ve begun to wonder why they don’t call it “Star Trek, the
Adventures of the Holographic Doctor”. Sure, the Captain is in some episodes,
and so is Seven of Nine (in her crazy space-gymnast outfit), but every
episode this week has focused [...]

So, about a month ago, as I walked home from the office late at night, I
wandered past this dude playing a guitar out on the street in front of a
little park. For whatever reason I can’t explain, although I had a pocket
full of change, I didn’t feel like giving it to him. And so he [...]
