First and foremost, you should watch the film below. My friend Bill shared this with me and I loved it. It presents what The Matrix would be like had it been done in the silent film era. Trust me, it’s fun. Especially if you like The Matrix, silent films, Russia, or general comedy.
Did you like it? If you’re on Facebook, then you can’t see the embedded video because Facebook sucks. If you want to watch the video, and I strongly recommend that you do, then click HERE or HERE. You won’t regret it.
I cannot express how excited I am to be Nashville bound next weekend. I’m going to see Joe Purdy in concert. I’ve been wanting to see him live for a long time now, and the 2-3 hr drive will be completely worth it. If you’ve not heard of Joe, you should check out his website, where you can listen to all of his music for free. The concert tickets are cheap ($10) and the venues are small, so if he’s coming near you, you may consider a trip.
Have any of you played Oblivion? Is it just me or is the lockpicking feature a lot harder than it was in Fallout 3? I’m not sure I even understand it really. I just throw the tumblers up and try to lock them in place when it hits the top, but this just doesn’t seem effective. Bah, I’m sure I’ll figure it out eventually.
I hoped to have a review of The Last Argument of Kings up here today, but I couldn’t finish the remaining pages last night. I have about 50 pages or so left, so I’ll definitely review it on Monday. Next up comes the STAR WARS Deathtroopers book mentioned a while back, since I’ve got it checked out from the library and it’ll need to be returned relatively soon.
Wasn’t The Office funny last night? Speaking of The Office, here’s another rather interesting video. It’s a morphing blob robot thing. It’s actually quite astounding. It confirms that our technological skills are slowly reaching Skynet levels and Terminators are coming. Terminators and zombies… awesome.
Okay, I guess that’s about it for the day. My NaNoWriMo idea took a dramatic (is that a pun?) turn yesterday in the cogs of my head and I think I decided to change a few things in the character’s futures. Press on everyone that’s doing it.
