Mahna Mahna
Oh my goodness. My workmate, Mike, came in to work singing (well, okay, the song has no words, so he was humming it) this song that I immediately remembered but couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was. And the worst part was that since the song has no words, I didn't think I'd be able to google it enough to figure out what it was.
Must Love Dogs is no Grosse Pointe Blank
My beautiful bride and I just finished watching Must Love Dogs. I am a huge John Cusack fan, as is Lynn. However, Must Love Dogs barely bubbled up above the "sure could have done something more enjoyable with the last two hours of my life" mark. It was a cute film, to be sure, and those involved did decent-enough jobs. Christopher Plummer was excellent, as always. It just seemed like it was a really long, drawn-out, wholly predictable, average romance movie (guys--read: "chick flick"). And this was no fault of John Cusack, honestly. I mean, really, it seemed like he was intentionally left out of most of the movie. And the ending, when they finally did realize that they loved each other--that must have been the shortest romantic ending to a film that I ever have seen. Wholly incongruous. It's a word. Look it up. =:)

Merry Christmas and Brother, Can You Spare a Car?
Dang, things have been totally nuts lately. We of the relocating-Kasper persuasion have had a tumultuous couple of months.

I think I've mentioned before how much movies affect me. They really do. And the really thought-provoking ones affect me the most. Duh, I suppose.
Ecto, Amarok and Pink Floyd
I've long-been wanting a nice WYSIWYG editor for my WordPress blog. And, let me just say... there's not one that I could find for Linux, which both sucks and is honestly quite a surprise. And yeah, I know there's a partial resource in kdepim 3.5, and I had it on my TODO list to look at helping to finish it/get it working, but that's obviously not happened yet. Oooh! Maybe that can be the itch that I need to scratch! But anyway, I'm sure I missed this killer app in my searches and there is, in fact, one out there, but I sure as heck couldn't find it.
Desktop Linux and Me
This little excerpt is very exciting, I think. If the eWeek report is correct, and this truly does have the backing of the corporations listed, then it sure seems like people are starting to get serious about the real possibility of a Linux Desktop that has a chance at challenging the Windows desktop market share.
