Messing… Part II

Kicking and screaming into the 2008 era, I have upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.5.1. It seems like just last week we were running version 2.5.0 and, in fact, we were.

I just finished watching 300, the movie about Spartans that probably never existed in actual history. I have to say, while I found the film to contain some of the most rich and idealized photography, it was also the silliest cool thing I’ve ever seen.

There be Cylons here!

I’m excited! Is it Christmas? Is Santa coming to town? No.

Season 4 of Battlestar Galactica premiers on the Sci-Fi Channel tonight. I’m stoked.
