Underworld: Don’t see it.
The Rundown: Irish people aren’t Scottish!

Underworld really did suck the big one. The only thing that made it bearable was Kate Beckinsale. Oh, and they totally stole the ending (Victor’s head getting chopped in half) from Equilibrium. That was just cheap.
The previews, on the other hand, were great. First there was Kill Bill which not only has a great theme song but also has an old ninja man kicking Uma Thurman’s ass. And then there was the Alien Director’s Cut. Only in theatres this Halloween. That’ll be sweet.

I’m moving the pig-monkey.com domain over to a different shell account. This shouldn’t mean anything to you, the reader, but the site (especially the blog) might be down for a short time while the files transfer over.

I’ve also re-released the site under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 1.0.

Quicksilver comes out tomorrow. I’ll be heading over to Barnes & Noble right after school to pick it up (and if they don’t have any copies, I’ll be forced to put the hurting on someone). While I’m over there, I might as well go to Best Buy and annoy Brandon.

“We should not march into Baghdad. To occupy Iraq would instantly shatter our coalition, turning the whole Arab world against us and make a broken tyrant into a latter-day Arab hero. Assigning young soldiers to a fruitless hunt for a securely entrenched dictator and condemning them to fight in what would be an unwinable urban guerilla war, it could only plunge that part of the world into ever greater instability.”
–George H. W. Bush, “A World Transformed”, 1998

I’ve put up another mirror, this time of New York City Hackers. Here’s the description from the website:

Hackers; malicious vandals or cyberspace freedom fighters? In the last few years hacking have become synomous with electronic crime in the media and the public mind. The federal agencies strikes down hard on any offender it catches, and all off a sudden what has earlier been considered intellectual games becomes serious business...This documentary looks at the "2600" community in New York City of today, its meetings and conferences, political annotations, and historically explores the roots of the definition 'hacking' amongst the model train enthusiasts at MIT...

It’s 218MB and in DIVX format. I like it alot. So what are you waiting for? Download it!

I setup a new email address that forwards to my cell phone: mobile at pig dash monkey dot com

Most likely I won’t reply (until I get to a computer, that is) so don’t use it for general conversation but if you need to contact me fast for some reason, go ahead. Keep messages shorts, plain text only (no HTML), and no long signitures.

And if you have a camera phone, you can send your pics to that address. I’ve got the Sony Ericsson t68i without the optional camera but I can still view all the pics. Sound too.

Let’s see how long before I get my first spam…

Binary Revolution 1.2 has been released. I ordered mine yesterday.
