    zeitgeist the movie 

    I might be a little late to the party, but I recently watched Zeitgeist, a released-to-internet-only conspiracy doc. It touches on some of the issues discussed in Alex Jones’ Endgame, but presents these issues in a much less fanatical, less “conspiracy nutty” kind of way. Which, I think, is something you should strive for when you’re trying to convince people that Jesus was fake, 9/11 was an inside job, and that we’re all the puppets of uber-powerful international bankers.

    I don’t know how real or not the claims made by this movie are, so I’ve got some googling to do. So far, the criticisms I’ve seen mostly stop at saying that the movie is edited and presented in a manner to maximize shock and drama value. If this movie is bull dookey, I need someone to flat out tell me it’s wrong and why, ’cause that shit about the bankers and the World Trade Center? Well that just freaked me out. Check it out (for free) here.

    Supposedly, with this software, the effects of certain drugs can be re-created by listening to “dose” mp3s in an isolated environment using headphones. I’ll finally know how Lindsay Lohan feels all the time.

    Skim – PDF annotation application. 

    Skim 0.2 is a PDF annotation application.

    Hmm.. I’ve been spending time learning ObjC/Cocoa over the last few months. And I’m writing an application. A PDF annotation application. WTF?

    Stupid more skilled developers *fist shake*

    You’re losing me Lost. 

    Lost, you were on thin ice at the start of season 3… now Bai Ling shows up.

    Oy, I wanted to toss a shoe at the TV.

    You’re close to being cut Lost.

      I am also getting frustrated with some of the latest developments. Carl (or Karl) the exiled “Other” who has been tortured, and treated like a lab rat, seemed to me to be the answer to a bunch of nagging questions. Where did the Others come from? What are they doing here? Why did they kidnap Sawyer and Kate, just to put them in cages and have them haul rocks around? How much contact do they have with the outside world? ETC.ETC.ETC.

      However, Sawyer tells him to take off before grilling him for answers – that doesn’t make any sense to me. As if Sawyer isn’t a bit baffled by the Others and curious to get some answers…

      However, I am far more loyal a fan than you, and I’ll stick it out till the bitter end in hopes of it regaining it’s previous wonderfulnessity! And when it does, you’ll be all confused because you missed episodes and I’ll just laugh and laugh.

      You are more loyal, but we only have one TV, so I guess I’m watching more Lost. :)

    WTF 

    Rapper The Game threatens David Beckham? WTF?

    Here too.

    “I’d kick David Beckham’s ass on any given day. I’d just pick the ball up and kick the s**t out of the stadium, game over.” Wha?

      In related news, fallen MC Ja Rule announces he’s going to punch the sun.

      “Straight up, sun be hatin fo years, and I’m tired, ya heard, I’m straight tired of that sun, naw mean? If I see him on the street, he best be heated or I’ma drop him…straight gangsta.”

      Poignant words from the warrior poet.

      I find The Game’s comments so absurd. If another MLS player made that comment, sure, makes sense they play each other. But a hip hop artist calling out a footballer? Just a publicity grab I think.

      Same thing with Ja Rule and the Sun…I mean if Mars was all up in the Suns grill, it’d make sense, but Ja? I mean seriously, do you think he could really punch the Sun? Maybe…I dunno.
