The Narnia quiz the other day started me thinking. There’s a film based on The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe coming out in December. There will be a tie-in video game as well, for at least the PlayStation 2 and XBox, probably GameBoy Advance, perhaps even GameCube, PlayStation Portable, and who knows what theContinue reading “On the Long-Term View”

More on Movies
I’ve done a movie meme in the past two months, but I saw this on James DiBenedetto‘s webpage and thought, Why not? Of the American Film Institute’s top 100 films, which have I seen? Let’s take a look, shall we? CITIZEN KANE (1941) CASABLANCA (1942) THE GODFATHER (1972) GONE WITH THE WIND (1939) LAWRENCE OFContinue reading “More on Movies”

Add this to the annals of odd quizzes… The only book which doesn’t take place in Narnia at all, per se, you’re the story of a voyage to find the end of the world and hopefully the Seven Lost Lords (remember Rhoop!). You contain some of the most unique people and places and beautiful descriptionsContinue reading “On Narnia”
On Shire Reckoning… Again
The strange little box in the sidebar is now fixed. I’ve written my first WordPress plug-in. As you can tell, it generates a date in Shire Reckoning.
On Nothing
Nothing to say today, not really. Some may have noticed a strange, new box in the sidebar. A little project of mine. As of right now it’s broken, but not to fear–I’ve found the error.
On Customers and Snarkiness
I couldn’t deny it. The kid was baked. Two guys walked in the store and made a bee-line to the 8-bit Nintendo dump bin. The taller of the two, the one wearing sunglasses, said that he needed some games for a party they were holding tonight. He asked how the games were priced–it depends–and startedContinue reading “On Customers and Snarkiness”
