Lowell Sun
meta-markup: 0
When Jason and I went to see Star Wars: Attack of the Clones on
opening day, we got interviewed in the theater by a reporter from the
Lowell Sun. I just remembered it today, and checked to see if we got
into the article. As it turns out, I got quoted, but Jason’s name got
misspelled. The article [...]

Lightning

Not a terribly exciting weekend, but a mostly good weekend. Saturday,
Andrea went into Boston with her mother, which left me with the whole
day and nothing terribly important to do.
Dave and I had agreed upon
having a small LAN party at SimPro, but by the time I got to SimPro and
called Dave, he claimed to have [...]

Ninjas?
meta-markup: 0
It’s been an interesting week since my last post. Andrea graduated
from the University of New Hampshire yesterday, and the ceremony was
last night. After she received her diploma (actually, and empty folder,
she gets the real thing in the mail) we went to dinner with her
parents and grandparents. Her parents bought her a huge zebra
painting, but [...]

morning) at 12:01am, the first showing on opening day. We went down to
Lowell around 7:30ish, picked up the tickets and then had dinner at the
Outback next to the theater. Around 10 we went to get [...]

Movies, Work, and Stuff
meta-markup: 0
I’ve been fairly busy for the past week getting ready for a product demo
that took place this morning. On the plus side, everything went well,
and the people seemed interested in the project, though not everything
is working yet. Spend most of yesterday working on it in addition to the
past couple of weeks. Ended up working [...]

Woot! Anime!
meta-markup: 0
Was just working on adding a Tomato Rating from
Rotten Tomatoes to
Showtimes, when I noticed that the
Brattle Theater in Boston is showing
Escaflowne: The Movie. Might be worth a trip into Boston this weekend
to check it out. It’s the same theater where I saw Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust.
Anyone interested in going?

New Game!
meta-markup: 0
In a burst of spending brought on by the arrival of my federal tax
return, I purchased Metal Gear Solid 2 last night. It’s fun fun fun.
Great game. I’m just wondering why after playing though the first
chapter, they start treating you like a moron again at the start of the
second chapter. “Press Action to open [...]
