This bizarre little flash game is like a weird hybrid of Myst and Henson’s The Dark Crystal. It’s really cool though!

LikeI finished the wedding favors this weekend, and only had to take two days off of work to do it! But that’s behind me now, so I can relax. Maybe. Next weekend I’m moving most of my stuff from Palos Verdes to Anaheim, so that’ll be just as insane I’m sure.
Saw some movies this weekend-
Gangs of New York: Sucked. Too long, too boring, and the characters were just not believable at all. Needlessly gory.
Two Weeks Notice: Funny and well written. Hugh Grant was made for romantic comedies.
The Life of David Gale: An anti-death penalty message wrapped in a very well conceived film. Very clever story that took me a few minutes to fully understand once it was all over. Tammy helped me out though, because I’m a little slow sometimes.
I really like hamburgers. I think I had three or four this weekend. I love hot dogs too. I’m not sure which I like better, but I think the dogs have it by a nose.
You know, I’m not really sure why I used to like Final Fantasy so much… The games were great on the Super Nintendo, but the PSX/PS2 versions always got really boring and/or hard after the first few hours. Too many battles.
Anyway, here’s a funny flash movie about the phenomenon.
Wow. It looks like hippies may have finally lost their war against nuclear energy if this article is true.
Question!
What would happen if someone took the ending to every 80s movie, mixed together all the cliches, and wrote a script that put them them all into one short film?
Answer!
80s Ending
Los Angeles needs a new freeway. Just look at this map. There’s a need for it, and there’s land for it.
It needs to run east-west, and it needs to lie smack-dab between the 60 and 91 freeways, cutting right through Whittier. It can run from the 405 all the way out to the 71.
They can call it the 6 freeway, because my birthday is June 6th and I came up with the idea. Also I will be driving on it every day.
Here’s another great reason to give a fake telephone number to everybody in the world, unless you’re buying something from them or have a personal relationship with them.
Yesterday was Tammy’s birthday.
I surprised her with dinner at Napa Rose. It felt strange to use the front entrance of the Grand Californian, valet and all, because we’re so used to walking in on the Downtown Disney side. Man that place is beautiful.
Anyway, we walked over to Napa Rose and our friends Stacy and Steve were there waiting for us – just as I had planned back when I made our reservations a week ago! I never told Tammy of course, so that was surprise number two! VIP tickets to the Arabian Nights dinner show in Orlando were the final surprise of the evening.
We had a really great dinner at Napa Rose. Steve and I both got the “Sauteed Wild King Salmon with Lobster Risotto and Champagne-Basil Essence” and Tammy and Stacy both got “Skillet Seared Angus Beef Tenderloin Wrapped in Applewood Smoked Bacon with Black-eyed Peas and Crispy Fried Vidalia Onions.” We were stuffed and broke by the time we left, but we all had a great time.
Here’s a story about hyperinflated prices for inkjet cartridges, seeing as how I just ranted about this phenomenon on Thursday!
The first public beta of Trillian 2.0 has just been released. Unlike the private beta, Jabber actually works in this one! This round of testing is open to anyone with an active Trillian subscription ($25/yr).
They go on and on about all the fancy new features added since the last version, 1.0C, but the only one that I actually care about and will use is the Jabber plugin. It seems to be working pretty well so far.
If you’re not a paying member, you can download it from trillian.net.ru. Gotta love those Russians.
