From a status update from one of my friends on Facebook, who happens to teach…


That’s a very good point. If Edward Cullen is really 108 years old, what’s he doing falling in love with a teenage girl? Shouldn’t he be cruising around Leisure World looking for someone who can catch his old school cultural references?

Of course, if I hung around a high school flirting with teenaged girls, I’d be under a prison right now. And rightfully so!

Technology could simplify movie plots (thanks Ray!) and save us from terrorists (thanks David!)….


If these movies had featured cell phones, they certainly could have shaved a few minutes off of their running times…


And if “24” had been made in 1994, well… Jack Bauer would have had a rough time of it!

Sure, it may not seem prudent to allow myself to browse sites like the Hammacher Schlemmer catalog because it’s fully of pricey fluff I really don’t need, but sometimes I stumble across a gem like this one: a robotic, remote-controlled sentry that reminded me a bit of ED-209 from Robocop!




Oh sure, it has wheels instead of legs, but it just channels a bit of that ED-209 bad boy look… just mount some guns and you’re good to go!

From Ctrl-Alt-Del:

“Hi. I see you are a woman, and breathing.”
“Yes, I see you are a man, and also breathing.”
“We are in love now.”
“Yes.”
