The official press conference has been held, and the word is out. Season 4 will be the last season.

Ok, so its a little bittersweet. I know Galactica will not go the way of X-files and just stick around too long, but... there will only be 22 more episodes. AND we've gotta wait til NOVEMBER for the next episode (yes, its gonna be a 2 hour extended episode), and then til 2008 for any additional episodes.

SergioThree: there's other fish in the sea, man, she's just a girl
Beatsfromkorea: no dude, that's bullshit.
Beatsfromkorea: Think of it this way. if your precious copy of street fighter third strike broke and i told you "it's ok man, there's other games in the sea. here, play mortal kombat instead" what would you say? you'd be like, "fuck that, gimme third strike."
SergioThree: ...
SergioThree: you just reached me on a level that i never thought possible

So they've made I Am Legend a couple times before, but I'm still looking forward to it. Its actually one of the only times that I've been happy that Ridley Scott FAILED. Yes, he was going to make anther pass at the film in the 90's with none other than the Governator playing Robert Neville. Thank (insert deity of choice here) that that didn't happen. All we needed was another crappy Schwarzenegger action movie. Well although it would have been the only Schwarzenegger / Vampire movie ever made... ok, that's not the point.

the new trailer for the Will Smith / Francis Lawrence version of the Richard Matheson novel is out, and its fuckin great just for its "fight club"esq scenes of a ruined New York city. The deer running between taxis in the middle of a empty city. Oh, hold the fuck on! Robert Neville lived in LOS ANGELES!!!! See once again, no love! Well i guess fighting vampires would be a little more interesting in Manhattan. So the trailer looks great. And the flesh crunching/ chewing sound at the end just fuckin does it. I love how they're trying to completely avoid the fact that its a vampire movie. Like they don't want to get pigeonholed into a label. hehehehe. Yes, that sound he hears at the end of the trailer is a vampire feeding! I gotta go pick up this book again and read it. I think the last time i read it was when Will was reading the Stand back in high school. We both has thick beat up books in our swim bags, and i remember reading while i was riding in the fuckin car out to practice.

So for all you windoze pple out there, install Safari and it Alt-Ctrl-E. Mmmmmm empty cache. Now isn't it fuckin nice to have a keyboard shortcut for that? No more going through 3 fuckin windows to clear the cache. Most people don't even notice stupid shit like that, but it just makes sense.

Welcome to the party.

update: okie, andy put me in my place, and also made my day. see comments.

Everybody eventually moved out of their parent's house. Some sooner, some later, but there is always stuff left behind. I still have boxes of shit in my parent's attic and need desperately to get it out of there so its not taking up space at their place. I guess what you need is a good kick in the ass to clean the remaining shit out.

That's what Jen got the other day, but without the kick, and without the cleaning.

Valerie is home with an infection, and Nicole is taking care of her during the day. They were quite busy, and dug into the task of moving the bed in Jen's old room. Well it just so happens that Jen did clear out all her crap from her room a couple years ago. Well all but the MASS of SHIT under her bed. So it needed to be moved.

We're over the drama (or at least i think we're over the drama) of putting all of Jen's remaining childhood belongings in a large number of trash bags. We're over the drama of no heads up or a call. We've moved on. That was all yesterday. Jen only cried a few times over all this. Not that much drama. No harm done. (Don't you love the way i belittle Jen's feelings here? Don't worry i'm being sarcastic if you didn't notice)

SO... WE've moved on.

More importantly is all the cool stuff Jen's pulled out of the large number of trash bags.

I got home yesterday and Jen made me read a letter that her mom had written to her when she was at summer camp. She's cried when she found it, and she was laughing her ass off now. I started reading... it was classic Patricia. The normal whats what of their activities... then into the more important issues. She's included a pen with the package, and it is to be used to mark any of Jen's clothing that has not already been marked. There a specific instructions for placement of name tags, name tags that are already attached, and where to put the name in the event of the missing nametag.

Then simply do EVERYTHING all camp instructors tell you to do. Be careful with the Guns. Don't walk in front of the guns while they are being shot.

I was laughing. Jen was crying again.

I wondered what else had been put in the trash bags. I found that simply Jen had kept EVERYTHING. She had a stack of teen heartthrob magazines sitting on the kitchen floor. One of the issues had Richard Greico VS Johnny Depp on the cover. HAHAHAHAHHAHA. Then shockingly i pick another on up to find an entire article about Wil Wheaton. I'm going to scan a few, they are awesome.

There are old scan trons, letters, homework, EVERYTHING. Its the one thing i keep thinking about with Paige. Where do you keep everything. How can you keep things organized over YEARS. Things are going to be lost. They'll get stuffed under beds somewhere, and even though they look like they belong in the trash, they're the most valuable things to a person.

I don't know about anybody else out there, but hearing our fearless leader use the phrase "ethically responsible" while telling ANYBODY else how they should behave is just fuckin hilarious.

don't listen to my rants unless you read this for yourself.

in his first couple lines of speaking he says...

"all human life is sacred"
"respects human dignity"
"upholds our moral values."

Sorry bitch, i can't take you seriously. How many people did you kill today?

So the server move was a lot easier than i thought. Somewhere in the middle of all my complaining, Dotster changed their policy on .htaccess files. So suddenly i can redirect to custom 404s like i need to with my blog engine. So that made me really happy cause i don't have to reprogram my publishing system to rip all the entries and archives.

Images will be up today or tonight late when i get home.

now i just gotta change the email.

update: images are uploading now, and i actually gotta change the server time. almost done.

in the process of changing email i've opened up EVERYTHING without spamfiltering. SO as a result i've now got about 350 emails that are nothing but junk. Its just part of moving, but it still gives me the chance to read incredible spam titles like...

chameleon stepchildren

that should be a prompt for a high school writing class.

Does anybody else see the irony in Microshit's recent Online Storage announcement? Honestly, they're going to give users 500MB of online storage space? How generous. article

I don't know... maybe i've got a better idea.

Make your operating system and your applications take up LESS FUCKIN SPACE!!!

Can you imagine how much disk space suddenly would be opened up GLOBALLY if the average install of Microshit products was reduced by a tiny %15? FFS, somebody do the calculation.

oh, and finally, would you feel comfortable knowing your data was in the hands of microsoft?
