Unless something happens to my car and I have to replace it (knock on wood), this will be the next vehicle I purchase. It’s got the dual rear exhaust under the tail and the distinctive stacked headlights just like the 999, but its engine is smaller by 250cc so I won’t die. Next stop: motorcycle school.
That’s all I really need to say. But I’ll go on, this is a short film directed by Anderson called Hotel Chevalier, the credit also lists it as “Part 1 of The Darjeeling Limited”. It’s a free download from iTunes. Note: might be slightly NSFW.
I decided to re-watch Eva again and thought I would look up on how the live action movie is progressing. The short answer is, it’s not. But I did find something else of interest…
Unlike most people, I don’t have an addiction to the snooze button. I turn off the alarm and then either get up or oversleep. Luckily the former happens more than the latter. But for you snooze junkies out there, this is the alarm clock for you.
Called the SnūzNLūz, this clock connects to the internet either via WiFi or a cable. You then set it up with your bank account and select an organization you despise. Now every time you hit that snooze button, you automatically donate a predetermined amount to your enemies. Break free from the binding chains of the snooze button at ThinkGeek.
I went back to San Antonio this weekend and subsequently watched Casino Royale 3 times, which brings my total viewing up to like 6 or something. Needless to say, I like this movie. It is true that if you judge this as a “Bond film” it might be a bit lacking in the gadgets and one-liners department. But if you consider it as a “Bond film” it’s arguably the best one of the bunch. The characters actually have some depth to them. Outrageous!
And then there’s Eva Green. I mean that in itself should suffice. If you like her you should go rent Dreamers.
Yeah, I know it’s been a while. But I feel like I have less free time than I have had at any other time in the past (not including school). Maybe it’s because I had it too good before: getting up at 8:30 for work, getting home at 5:10, going to bed at 1. Then I had two months of vacation practically: getting up at 11:30, doing whatever the hell I want, going to bed at 3. Now, due to traffic and parking, my leisure time has decreased dramatically: getting up at 6:30 for work, getting home at 6, and trying to go to bed before 11. Compared to when I last had a job, I’ve lost 3 hours! But, the silver lining I choose to see is that this job pays more than my last one and I’m saving about $100/month on gas and parking by taking the bus.
Anyways, that’s the reason there haven’t been many posts. I’m also working on a new design, so that’s something to look forward to. It’s still in the mock up stage though, so it’ll be a while.
