Boag's Draught: From The Pure Waters Of Tasmania Full Length (HD!)
Mary & Max
Fantastic film! Not for the kiddies though. This flick has completely restored my faith in animated feature films! It is beautiful.
MBP!
Just dropped the hammer on a new MacBook Pro! They (finally) upgraded these things, so it was time for me to jump. I am getting the 2.4GHz model with the new Intel i5 chip. And antiglare screen.
My current MBP will soon become our home media server. She served me well for almost 4 years. We had some good times. Good times.
Death Come to Town
Check out the stuff I did for The Kids in the Hall: Death Comes to Town. You can also play table top hockey and even watch the show - Death Comes to Town Official Site
Burned out!
Just finished burning my entire CD collection! Then I sold most of the discs at Sonic Boom except for notable discographies such as The Hip, Ben, Jack, etc. and some nostalgic items such as a limited edition copy of Lowest of the Low's Hallucagenia.
Daybreakers
Caught Daybreakers last weekend. Really enjoyed it - great concept, good action and some scary vampires/bat/creature things!
The Superbowl was FABulous!
Had to do it. Pic was too funny. Thanks, MSNBC!
Vanessa de Mata & Ben Harper
The Hurt Locker
Phenomenal. Really intense, edge-of-your-seat, nerve-wracking, contemporary war flick.
For Dubby
This made me think of Dubby. It's from an art exhibition/gallery doing a tribute to He-Man and the Masters of the Universe...

Epic.
My Early Christmas Prezzie
So, here's a pic of my early Christmas present. I think the picture speaks for itself, but if not, I'll add the word, "sweet".
The Land of the Lost - Will Ferrell Style!
The kids trailers threw me off but, OMG, this is funneee! Never seen the original. Doesn't matter. I simply love Will Ferrell.
Time Capsule Update
Well, after receiving an e-mail from the Time Capsule Memorial Register, I decided to call Apple again and see if they would replace my dead Time Capsule even though it's past warranty.
I've got a new one being shipped to me for next week! Free! My faith in Apple has been restored.
Glee and Modern Family
Adding on to Dubby's stellar reco of Parks and Recreation, I suggest two more shows for your watching pleasure:
Glee
Modern Family
Parks & Recreation
This is my new favourite show! The cast is stellar and funny, funny, funny!
RIP Apple Time Capsule
Well, after posting 18 months ago what a great device this was, I join a growing list of disgruntled Apple Time Capsule owners whose equipment has died. Exactly 18 months to the day of arriving at my house, my Time Capsule is dead. Without warning. Kaput. No power, no restore, no love.
Despite more than 20,000 hits to a 17-page discussion thread on Apple's own support forum, they refused to acknowledge it as a problem during my call to support, just a lone incident. There's even an online registry for dead Time Capsules. Of course, their standard warranty is 1 year, and no longer covers my Time Capsule boat anchor. Luckily, I bought it with a gold mastercard which extends my warranty coverage by 1 year, but it will still be an effort to get it replaced.
So I am without my automated backup solution and wireless n network right now. Beware!
Explicit Ills
Explicit Ills is a fantastic film. Never heard of it, took a chance at the video store and boom, boom, pow, I get hit with this. Check it.
Smoosh!
I know this sounds like an odd recommendation, especially since I found out about them on "Yo Gabba Gabba", but these sisters have potential. They apparently have recorded with Pearl Jam, played on Jimmy Kimmel, opened on tour for the Eels, played SXSW... The drummer is really good.
Go to this link: http://jezebel.com/5036003/smoosh-sing-on-yo-gabba-gabba. By the way, DJ Lance Rock is awesome. I would totally hang with that guy.
And don't think what I think you are going to think.
