MIX

So then, this is 2009 is it? Hmm. Sad that my first thought upon typing that was ‘Christ, it’s been 20 years since Ghostbusters 2 came out’, but what can I say? I was born a geek and will be one forever. New year usually brings with it a brief sense of new beginnings, time to start over, start afresh, change, grow, blah blah.

This year I’ll be concentrating on building on the beginnings I made last year and generally trying to make a few things better. I figure if I aim for the clouds, it’ll feel even better when I get to the stars.

Oooh, that was twee, wasn’t it?

I guess one new year’s resolution I should make is ‘Less crap metaphors this time around’.

I give it five minutes.

christ, it has been 20 years since Ghostbusters 2 came out! i wonder if annie potts still looks hot, if she'll end up like ann margaret or bernadette peters. (or sigourney weaver!) crap metaphors?! hey, you only live once (unless you're a ghost.)

by the way, i just read that dan ackroyd (who is the real life egon, traipsing around haunted houses with his microwave equipment) has written and proposed ghostbusters iii, which would be mostly cgi. harold ramis (who i saw in "as good as it gets," plus what could have been 100 pounds) is interested, but may try to cast ben stiller for venkman's replacement. i don't hate stiller, but bill murray's shoes are too big for him, in my opinion.

We're a global band of kids/geeks/freaks who love art/tech/gaming/music/politics & life. Love the web. Live the FU.

good going with the build man, I dunno if you carved the stuff out beforehand, but this kinda reminds me of when Queen's Brian May built his "red Special"

What I was referring to, was that the way that this "could" move forward, was that people might be able to search for info about any random person through taking a photograph in the street, they don't even have to be famous. Fair enough at this p...

actually, zadi is the main act. and nothing against zadi- because she's the greatest video host that ever was, in my opinion. i mean she's better for tech and politics... she may still have a way to go to rank with johnny carson or even conan o'b...
